Day 211 of 365 – Canon G10


Canon G10, originally uploaded by jeff_golden.

Large On Black

I bought this camera, ostensibly for my wife, some time ago. She would be happy with any point and shoot that lets her push the button and it takes a reasonably sharp image. I got this one for ‘her’ so that I could have fun with it too :) . That said I have hardly used it. To the point that I don’t even know how to use the advanced features.

Thinking about that made me decide to commit to using her camera at least once a week for my photo a day project. That way I will learn how to use it. The photo a day project I am working on has really made me pretty comfortable with my DSLR and I am thinking it can help do the same with this advanced point and shoot.

Lighting: 580exii camera right gelled CTO (used two stacked) , Vivitar 285hv camera left snooted.

  5. i’d run through fire for one of those!
    great lighting, shadow and detail there jeff.

  6. I think you’ll find it’s pretty much the same in terms of features. I want one of these, they produce such good quality images

  7. I hope your wife enjoys "her" camera. I guess since she isn’t using it she will have to pose for it.
    This is a nice shot

  8. I’ve heard for a P&S this one’s pretty advanced…
