I'm just new to digital photography and just joined this site. My son bought me this IS20 to practice with and I'm posting a few of my shots with it (I have hundreds). I have a TSi now and have not had a chance to take any shots for trying to learn the camera but will in the future. These shots were taken as a rank amateur before I heard of lighting, thirds, bokeh, composition, etc. Great site and look forward to enjoying and learning as I go.

Erv,

Thanks mate, I look forward to it. Don't know how often I'll post or even where yet. I'm in it for the fun.

Melvin,

Great shot, love it. I spent almost 5 years up in Bremerton putting two aircraft carriers through the shipyard overhaul. The trout fishing is outstanding up there especially fishing the out of the way beaver ponds. Washington kinda freaked me out with their woods, heavy undergrowth and fast growing flora; some years you can't find the beaverpond you fished last year due to heavy over growth. Fly fishing has been a 64 year passion for me that I'll never tire of and looking forward to now taking my camera afield and document some of this.

Jean, I don't think folks here would understand this shot from the south island.

Outstanding. Tweet, tweet, sweet pics.

Thanks Steve, cheers mate.

My dear wife is from windy Wellington, beautiful place. I prefer the south island though and the wonderful fly fishing and outdoor activities it affords. I love NZ and it reminds me so much of where I'm from here 60 years ago. It is just so gentle, and peaceful with friendly, loving people. Thank you for the kind words. That is a pic I took with a P&S before I got my DSLR.

Thanks Paul. Found it on a tutorial.

I just purchased this camera and was wondering how you enable the live mode to display on the lcd screen. Thanks.

I hear you Greg, may get snow here tomorrow. I was out fly fishing two days ago and a baetis hatch just bloomed all over the lake, awesome.

How much difference is there between this lens and the same lens not USM? Thanks

Retired with my kiwi wife and loving it. New to photography so I'll watch and learn and may post once in awhile.
