Its not the camera that makes the picture, its the person behind the lens. Don't apologize for having a Fuji, just have fun.

What is firmware?

I am looking at purchasing a new camera and wrote to Sony to ask why I should buy from them rather then a company that sells their product. One of the answers they gave was that the cameras they sell have the latest firmware already loaded? Can someone tell me what is firmware and how do you know what version the camera has already installed when you are shopping? Thanks

Tamron 15x all in one lense

I use the Tamron lens, have had great results, love it for travel, only have to take one lens and I hae never had an issue with lens crawl, The lens has a lock on it and I do use and it is very secure. I have had mine for approximately 4 years, love it. It also has a 6 year guarantee with it which is a good feature.

Thanks for the info that has been shared. I will be shopping this week. I think I will be going with A77. I travel frequently and the weather resistant aspect interests me. I have spent too many dollars on vacations only be rained out and not able to get many shots.(10 days in Alaska). I loved the pix. It really does showcase what a great product Sony producces.

My New Sony Alpha Camera a57

I have just started to look at the sony a 77 and a 65. What is the difference between them, I noticed a sizeable price difference but is there more technology in the a77? I currently use a canon but after my last trip to Europe, I realized the weight became more of a problem for me. Carrying it around become very tiresome, I may just be getting older but the weight was an issue. I noticed many of the sony a55 model there. Everyone said for travel it was great, good results and much easier to carry. Any info would be appreciated.

(General Chit-Chat (non-photography talk))

Voter ID/Voter Suppression

I am amazed at how many people are so oblivious to the voter fraud problem. I worked the polls for several years in Georgia and saw first hand the attempts at fraudulent voting and the abuse. Anyone not willing to provide valid proof of residency/citizenship needs to become better educated. You can't get a library card without proof of citizenship. More dead people are voting in some states then the breathing ones. Common sense needs to prevail, not political maneuvers.

Printing photos

This question has probably been asked before but here goes - I have been asked to print out some photos to be hung in a public area and would like your comments as to which is better - mat or glossy. The photos will be in under plain glass with no mat or frame. Thank you.

A lot of people like mat though I like glossy myself.

I use both matte and glossy depending on the subject matter. I like matted, coated for landscapes, flowers and use glossy for people. Hope this helps.

Any suggestions for areas to visit in Denver, Colorado?

We are going to Denver for vacation and we have never been there before, so I would love some suggestions about places to photograph. Also.....any suggestions on places that are a must to have lunch/dinner???

I was in Colorado last year and my husband and I did a theme trip based on ghost towns. One of the best is St. Elmos. Great for photographs, beautiful scenery on the way up. It is at the top of a mountain and gives a great appreciation for what our ancestors survived.

the tammy lense has a lock on it, which I use when my camera is not up to my face and I have never experienced any problem with it tilting or sliding.

Tamron AF18-270MM F/3.5-6.3 Di II VC PZD Lens

I love the Tamron lense. I am a beginner-intermediate photographer and when I purchased my Canon T1i I also purchased the Ta,ron lense. After about 3-4 weeks my husband who has been a photographer most of his life saw how great it was and he also purchased one. We have recommended this to many in our camera club. It is our all-in-one lense that travels worldwide with us. It is light, easy to pack in our bag and does a great job.

Photoshop Elements 9 HELP!

I purchased PSE 9 awhile ago and took an online course through a program called ED2Go. It is offered through community colleges nationwide. They have hundreds of courses available. It was a 6 week program with 2 classes twice a week, It is downloadable so you can create a paper copy of the lessons for your use or just keep on your computer. The instructor made it so simple. I took the introductory course and will follow up with the advanced after the first of the year. I have taken 8 or 9 courses through this program on various aspects of photography and have been happy with all of them. One other point if you ar a senoir citizen they are free through your state university system. Hope this helps. Anne

Photography Club

I live in NC and was one of 5 founding members of the Coastal Carolina Camera Club. We started by placing an ad in the local paper asking that anyone with an interest in photography or starting a camera club meet at a specific time and place, we used the local library. We had about 12 people show up, from that group we called ourselves a camera club and began structuring meetings, programs, and other things a club needs for structure. Within 3 months our membership was near 100. We have a web-site, www.coastalcarolinacameraclub.org, became a club member of PSA, have juried competitions, monthly themes and field trips and meet monthly. We are a strong group with a diverse level of interests and talent. Keep working on getting a group formed and enjoy yourself.
