Excellent set. I enjoy "walking-around-in-the-city" series -- next best thing to a visit there.

Yea, verily.

#2 -- the glimpse of tackle through the very edge of his glasses - grrreat!!!

#3 -- just amazing!

All 3 -- super superiorly splendiforous!

Nice set, especially #1. I wish I had the guts to shoot street photos.

Mucho macho machine. Enjoy!

P.S. I always wondered why Ford Motor Co. had the horse running the wrong way for a race track -- maybe he bolted? Ah well, "Mustang" means a feral/wild horse so I guess they run in any direction they choose.

Marvelous detail & color & personality -- not an easy combination to achieve but... you did it!

I have an ISP, of course, but I do not use their email. I have a domain with a web host and use that for my several email addresses. I use Spam Assassin to handle spam. I do not allow Spam Assassin to delete spam but, instead, it is redirected back to the sender. Most importantly, Spam Assassin enables the user to whitelist desired email senders so that their mail ALWAYS gets through, no matter what. UHH is, of course, whitelisted.

A living sculpture, beautifully & tastefully photographed. 10Q to the nth!

Message acknowledged -- 10Q to the nth!!! I shall copy your method and (eventually) tell my great grandchildren that I invented it. (^_^)

I'm a raw rookie so... please explain why continuous focus "is a better way." (This is an honest question.)

As I understand it, pressing then releasing the button turns Servo AF on. Pressing & releasing the button again turns Servo AF off. Not as good as BBF, but it might be useful, huh?

Thanks to all for your comments. I mean... REALLY thanks. At page 96 in the Manual, I found I can assign "Servo AF" to a button. I *think* Servo AF means continuous focus, right? Would it make sense to assign Servo AF to a button, I wonder?

Yes, I have a copy of the manual and yes, it does enable reassignment of buttons (at least I'm pretty sure it does). But that manual (for a Nikon fan-boy) is like trying to learn English by reading a dictionary and I am in a hurry because my younger daughter will take me on a circle-the-island junket day after tomorrow.

I just had a faint hope that there was someone here who is familiar with this old jewel of a camera who would walk me thru with something simple like "push this button, then push that button, then scroll down 3 lines etc". If I can't get spoon fed, I suppose I will take along my Nikon, but I was hoping to give the SX60 some exercise WITHOUT having to slog through a manual that uses unfamiliar/Canon terminology.

I just inherited my older cousin's Canon SX60, which he hardly ever used. Sheesh! Some of the nomenclature, menus, & button positions are very different from what I am used to (Nikon). Ergo, can anyone tell me (step by step) how to set up back-button AF on this SX60?

Wow! How did you get a picture of my mother-in-law?

Only the females sting, & they will do so repeatedly when they are really upset. Ah... females --- yellowjacket or homo sapiens, do NOT frivolously mess around with them or **pain** will surely ensue.
