Nice butts!
#1 Nice clean background. :thumbsup:
#3 You might want to crop/clone away the edge of the leaf on the bottom right.
S2 IS is my first Canon Prosumer. Love all its functions, except only ISO 50~100 usable only.Some shots of the monkeys at Uluwatu, Bali.
Bali- Uluwatu, Monkeys
Bali- Uluwatu, Sunset Monkey
Will sit down one day and clean up the branches in this one.
Bali- Uluwatu, Sunset Monkey II
All taken with my S2IS.
Thanks. For the Two spotted line blue, I used a raynox 250 as its very small sized - about 1cm.
For the leopard lacewing, I just stood far away and zoomed in to the max at 20x on macro mode
For tawny coster, I used a Hoya +4 filter
Actually, I usually use a 40D with a Tamron 180 for butterflies. Using the SX10 IS has some advantages and some disadvantages. The only woe of using a prosumer is the poor high ISO performance thus I use predominantly ISO80. But its DOF is very useful for macro, not forgetting the highly effective IS.
Thanks bro
Can I have a picture of your lens tube, the 58mm tube adapter you screw your Raynox in.Thanks. For the Two spotted line blue, I used a raynox 250 as its very small sized - about 1cm.

I like my S5 IS function. Like SX10, it suffers from ISO noise issue, only can use ISO80. At times, I force it to go ISO50 and ISO64 with CHKFirmware. lol
20X zoom (560mm) is freaking nice but it suffer a lot from shutter speed right, since it is f5.7.
Though it is huge and heavy, I still find my S5 IS (432mm x 1.5 tele) ultra useful for zooming without too much penaty on speed. (Still F3.5)
But then, to think of it, 560mm x 1.5 (840mm!) is superlative for esclipse shots even. Cool...
Now I am hoping SX20IS/SX2IS has improved ISO and lens, like how they have done from S1 IS to S2 IS.
Hi Soons,
Hmm actually I did not use a 1.5X i just used the raynox close up filter and a hoya close up filter
The SX10 IS does not have a lens adaptor mount but it has grooves in the front of the cam and I just clipped the raynox direct onto the camera.
I know Lensmate is designing a 58mm filter holder for the SX_IS cameras.
You cannot mount any adapters onto the SX_IS cameras. Canon did not make a bayonet mount on the body. I think it is due to the lens moving out alot when you zoom it, it is not an internal zoom like the older S_IS cameras. This would give rise to vignetting with an adapter on it, when you move to the wide side of the lens. No adapter means no tele converters.
That's why I am hesitating to upgrade. And really hope they re-design the lens design for SX2IS and SX20IS.You cannot mount any adapters onto the SX_IS cameras.

Else the camera is moving towards like Olympus SP-5XXUZ series.
They are going to release a 26X zoom version, and known for their tortoise focusing.

So far, the only thing you can mount is the Raynox DCR-250 macro. If you are willing to wait, get the Lensmate adapter, it will let you mount 58mm fliters along with the Canon hood.
Go to the Lensmate site. Then calculate the exchange rate. USD just went up, should have bought it 2 weeks ago! ;p
Took some photos with my SX10. I'm just stating out on photography so I have no idea how you judge if a photo is underexpose/over, poor composition and stuff. I have a few photos on flickr...do leave your comments.
