Default New Camera, New Pics
Just took these today while learning my new camera. Nikon Coolpix L810.

First 2 are using the zoom at 26x. Made it hard to center.





Last 2 were macro.

You will get the BEST quality, if you can stay within the OPTICAL ZOOM range of the camera/lens. Forget about the digital zoom and try to compose within that optical range of the lens I mentioned Once you go past it...the quality goes down. Play around with it and you should see a difference.

What's better is when those 'facebook photographers' leave it on there when they shoot their 'sessions'. (and then can't center a photo)

But Yamma! Look again! The huge tree in the background! The hard shadows on the subjects faces! The flower pot in the far FAR background! And the shoes! My God the shoes!

Yeah, I was just playing with it to see what it was like.

I was thinking about that. I did it during setup just to see how bad it was.

Took this one this morning zoomed in all the way and trying to keep my hand steady shooting out the sunroof of the car.



Another macro.



Ben not cooperating.
