Thanks for all your kind comments! No too bad for a little point and shoot Canon. Just wish it did as well for indoor nighttime shots. Still processing all the data from others on which camera direction to go next. Thanks to all
Daughter-in-law took us on a late afternoon tour of Graceland Cemetery, Chicago--final home of many of Chicago's early movers and shakers.
Thanks everybody!!!!! You have been so helpful. I have lots to work with from your guidance and will take all into account. Now I have work to do to check out these cameras. Thanks again!!!!
Thanks for your helpful suggestion. I'll check it out. :)
Thanks for your really helpful suggestions. I'll follow up on them. :)
I've tried adjusting the white balance for photos with some success on close ups but not very successful for zoom or videos. My current camera does not do RAW but the reviews I've been reading in prep for next purchase include the importance of RAW for really sharp photos. Just having a hard time weeding through all the reviews to make a wise choice for the needs I listed. Thanks for your help!
Thanks. Will check out the Canon web site.
Hi,
Im a ballroom dancer. Ive just taken over the responsibility for our chapters web site. I need to be able to take sharp, clear, well lit photosfrequently from across a large ballroom floorin rooms that dispense a garish yellow/orange glow. I currently use a Canon Powershot SD1300 IS. I like its small size and ease of use but am unhappy with its grainy/blurred zoomed photos & videos. I also spend a lot of time fixing indoor night shots taken on the fly of moving bodies in bad yellow light. Dancers dont have pockets. Soooo . . . . .small, easy to use, and powerful. What would you suggest? Under $500
