    Mr L F Braun wrote in message <3848B160.33487CE2@p...su.edu>... (...) Picture quality looks pretty good. One thing you do need to do is either not use lights so the camera will use it's flash, or get yourself some photo floods. A tripod might help (...)

     (...) The only thing I don't like about the mavica is if you aren't under florescent or halogen lights (which btw turn blonde hair green in photos) you aren't going to get that great of a shot indoors even with the flash, it's too hot. I have to (...) (25 years ago, 5-Dec-99, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.publish)
    
         Re: Choosing a Digital Camera/New Photos Up —Ray Sanders
      I use the original Kodak DC-200 (not even a plus). Several tricks I have found: I keep a little piece of wax paper taped over the flash (it helps difuse it a bit) I always take the box shots at highest-res, then set my html to display them at 50% (...)

         Re: Choosing a Digital Camera/New Photos Up —Frank Filz
      Well, I thought I was all settled on a Mavica, then I stopped in Service Merchandise today. They actually had cameras in stock, and in addition to the Mavica had an Olympus D-450ZOOM 1280x960 w/3x optical zoom. So far, looks like a nice camera. (...)

       (...) Yeah, I'd like to see some of your vaunted creations! :) Always the dilemma...build or sort? Build or sort? Build or sort... Incidentally, I went out and popped $20 on a tripod.

   (...) Too bad the production camera doesn't support the sample imaging which Mike originally pointed me to. It showed a nice macro shot of a quarter. This camera will not be able to do that (fixed focus 50cm to infinity). I'm sure the chip is (...) (25 years ago, 15-Dec-99, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.publish)
