Photos to share anybody?

which camera and model are you using

Thanks :slight_smile: - In my youth, I was interested enough in photography to go to evening classes. Learned all about the best settings for various photos and developing b/w photos. Had all the gear to do it. The camera was Praktica 35mm.

It all got bit expensive at that time of life, so I gave it up. Also, I think that it is sometimes possible to lose a shot by the time everything is set on the camera and so I went for a digital point and shoot when that type of camera became available. No need to bother setting up a shot. See a moment or scene and click the button …and it fits into the palm of the hand.

So I am lazy these days and always use auto. The photos are usually OK too. Says a lot about the Canon Powershot SX260 with its 20x zoom lens. I’ve had it for years. Even with the rough treatment it got on the off-road bike rides, it is still works well and is a super little camera.

Coming away from film cameras my first venture in the digital camera world was a Kodak EasyShare CX4230 2.0MP? or something like. I remember it was only a 2MP koak camera. More or less just point and shoot.

It’s a Canon EOS 250D
16 - 55 mm
and
75 - 300 mm

nice setup. I see the lastest firmware update is if you wsant to check

This orange jasmine flower is a flower with a strong and far reaching fragrance. Does it grow in your country? I believe it’s mostly found in parts of Asia.

My little Ricoh allows you to select one of these for jpeg shooting:

Standard, Vivid, Monotone, Soft Monotone, Hard Monotone, Hi-Contrast B&W, Positive Film, Bleach Bypass, Retro, Cross Processing*, HDR Tone, Custom1, Custom2

but what’s clever is you can shoot Raw, then select one of the above and apply it to the file in camera. You can also adjust things like White Balance, Exposure Compensation (EV), Highlight/Shadow Correction. Things not possible with a jpeg. Quick & easy.

Very lovely photos.

The colors is so vivid and vibrant!

Thanks, I think the lack of texture in the leaves confuses the camera a little.
