i want the cannon S400 elph... oh... damn... ! very nice.



The one thing about having replacement batteries is when you are on vacation and u are out and u run out of batteries u can refill at any convience store around.
my batteries are like $15-$20 a pop, im thinking of getting a rechargable

one for everyday use, and using the other one if I go away considering

it can hold over 1000 pictures.



or i can do it the old fashioned way and use film, I have a nice 35mm camera.

only reason i wanted a digital over a film one is for getting the pictures on the computer. i have a crappy scanner, which i dont even know where it is, so its just easier with a digital.

I love the pics!! question:



HOW THE **** do you get that clarity at night? I cant take pics of lights or anything.. I just can't seem to get it right. Wither blurry or plain shitty. The camera doesn't do **** well without the flash.. Can anyone point me in the right direction?



It's an Olympus C4000. I don't know much about setting the shutter speed & ****... But I can't take night pics AT ALL.. If I turn the flash off the camera takes 2 second pics..

its not actually all that big. its about half as long zas my shoe (size 11)



and you cant take the pictures like that with the Olympus C400. theyre so clear because of how long the lens is open for so its accepting more light. and it seems that like alot of cameras cant take good night pictures because of their flash. youd need a larger one to mount on to it for good pictures. And also the lens is open a little bit longer so you have to be even mroe sure that you hold it still.

Here's my camera, it's huge and the body is solid aluminum. Sometimes it's cumbersome but the images are worth it! Have a look:

With the two telephoto lens attached (huge!):

600mm (35mm eq) or 17.4X, great for taking pics of a hot chick down the street!
