  • Canon G2

    Sorry this should have been posted as a reply to the earlier thread on Canon G2/G3 cameras. Inadvertently hit the new thread key.


    I have had my G2 since November. So far I am very pleased with it. It allows me to use my Canon 550 ex flash and Photoshop will import the images from the camera directly.

    It saved my bacon a couple times in the photography class I was taking when I did not have the time to shoot, develop/print,scan and process the digital images. So I just whipped out the G2 and went directly to digital capture.

    I made some pretty slick panoramas also for that class using the G2.

    I also added the Canon telephoto lense for the G2 but have not used it yet. I am using 256meg flash cards and have not even come close to filling one shooting in RAW mode only.

    In my opinion it is a great "first" digital camera for a serious amateur photographer. My next step will probably be to something like the Canon D60.

    Canon vs. Nikon SMACKDOWN!

    Ha, the title makes this thread sound really exciting but it's not, just an informal comparison between two cameras I am currently using.

    For the past couple of years I have been using a non-DSLR Nikon Coolpix L810 for general shooting. My favorite feature on this camera is the huge zoom...

    half of photo black at 1/400s - shutter trouble?
    by DXM
    A while ago I purchased an Canon EOS 30D, it has worked absolutely marvelous up until today. I was to shoot some product photos for an ad and I noticed that at shutter speeds higher than 1/300s some shading of the lower part of the picture occurred and above 1/400s it took out most of the image....

    Hey! Ive kinda been a lurker for about the last year, but i don't have a camera nice enough to get too serious into this. Im hoping this will change. The problem is is that i don't have much money to spend on this at the moment. Currently i have a sony cybershot 1.8 mp camera i shelled out $250...

    Ok, own up. List your camera gear, both traditional and digital.

    I don't do much actual photography, but do I use:
    Nikon F100 w/50mm Nikkor (I'm a traditionalist)
    Fuji E900 (small, carry it with me, smallest camera that does raw files)
    Olympus XA (my tiny film camera,...

    Canon settings
    by oltenius
    Hello!
    I have a Canon digital photo and I used only automatic settings. I want to learn more about manual settings because it is a different mode to shot the best photos than auto mode, I think. Also, what is the best method, manual or digital zoom? I want to know how to correct in manual mode...
