I’d like to make up for my absence (re: laziness). A web album of our trip to Taronga Zoo - http://picasaweb.google.co.uk/jp.scarface/ZooTrip - I managed to squeeze 488 shots that day before the camera died + I used the flash in about 30 of those 488. Pretty good battery life considering I took about 200 the night before!
The ones I have uploaded haven’t really been edited much which is also a plus. Most have been brightened a bit and/or cropped, with a couple sharpened.
I only noticed after the reptiles’ area that the camera was on Centre Weighted metering. I can’t really tell the difference between that and matrix – in these shots anyway so I didn’t really care. I am also quite happy with the AWB. After editing the photos in Picasa I was more inclined to not change the white balance as the camera gives a warm inviting tone as opposed to the cold tone Picasa was giving when using the auto adjusts. My preference anyways…
I gave the camera a good workout during the weekend and it surpassed my expectations. It bodes well for the trip to NZ, although I would still like to get another battery just in case.
I’ll also upload Friday nights (Loz’s birthday party at Tepenyaki) photos when I get time as there were some good action shots.
