[kenziedarlene]

Hey

I have had this camera since last April.. Never really had a problem with it. But for the past couple of months the pictures have been coming out blurry. I normally like to use the manual with the flash on, but not i'm not sure which is the best way to go.. do you think its because the mode wasn't set to infinity? or do you have any other suggestions?

[russvien08]

put your ISO to like 80 or somethin...make it low/.

[axysproductions]

I have that camera. Some people never find all the features but I found so many things that you can control. Only thing I wish for is HD video...

[nicsye12]

lol kodak easyshare piece of shit

[illcul8troffcr]

This bad boy is on sale now at best buy for only $179 I got my and a free gorilla pod for $169 when they had it as the deal of the day.. I am a owner of 2 previous digital elphs I lovem and this blows the competition away

[alpinesmu]

It does NOT have full control.... no aperture or shutter speed control only scene selection which varies the settings.

[nicsye12]

yea it does you douchebag, im playing with mine right now. gotta go to the manual setting!

[alpinesmu]

That's fantastic that your playing with yours but it still doesn't have aperture control or shutter speed control the only shutter speed control you have is by varying the iso settings. I have a DSLR I know what full manual is and this doesn't have it! I also have this camera.

[squashdudes]

yeah u can!

[whatev53]

how's the video quality??

i'd love to start vlogging and i want to find a great camera to shoot video with awesome quality.

[squashdudes]

[futbolplaya561]

where

[Paintballer112893]

Hey, does this have a multi-shoot feature, either where you hold the button down and it takes a few photos constantly or where you press it and it takes like 3-5 in a row.

thanks!

[antinegative007]

Continuous ans CHDK firmware allows you to run scripts!!!

[Paintballer112893]

What??

[katie27kakes]

Yes it does, I have this camera too.

[yutakwaii]

Hm, I'm really interested in this.. can it zoom while recording videos?

[antinegative007]

I was getting mine to optical zoom in video but it does digital after 3X... ISO 3200 allows for good spying...

[YPBALLER17]

no it doesnt zoom while recording videos..only downside for me :( but everything else is amazing

[whatginawants]

What about it's battery life. Is it good ?

[LGRNexus]

I charged this thing when I got it in November 08. I have used the hell out of it (Ski trip, thanks giving, xmas, new years) and have not charged it since. The battery is amazing!

[antinegative007]

If you abuse the battery, It will last a whole day of RAW shooting fun. You'll be charging while switching cards and warming your toes or what not...

[xxhexx]

yeah this cam is pretty sweet! i'm going to buy one today *proud*

hey if you don't like the capital JPG try running this in termianl

for /f "usebackq delims=." %%a IN (`dir /b *.JPG`) DO (

ren %%a* %%a.jpg

)

should work fine as long as the file names have no spaces

[ScubaSteveS]

very helpful.Thank you.

[crazykzl]

hey! i just bought this camera yesterday but i havent tried it.

hows the picture and video quality? can it zoom while recording videos and are the speakers good or decent?

thanks

[LGRNexus]

The picture and video quality are outstanding. Just took this thing on a ski strip and did a lot of video...beautiful is all I have to say.

And yes, you can zoom while recording.

the speakers are ok. as good as it gets for being so small

[witbootycutie2]

[lazerbud]
