| ![]() I've zeroed in on the Sony H55 as a compact superzoom. It offers 10x zoom(starting from 25mm) and the usual glut of features expected from a camera of this range. Can someone suggest a good shop to buy it from in Bangalore? I am getting it for around 14.7k with a 4gb card and a pouch. Contact details of the shop will be much appreciated ![]() |

| ![]() Ok.. got myself a Panasonic FZ35 with B/W 3 yrs for 27k with all taxes.. Without it was 20k something which i didnt opt for. ( i prefer to buy with B/W) Dealer gave me a Class 2 8GB mem card. Tanveer, that spare card which we talked about. Please reserve that for me Saw a Fuji HS10 as well.. found it to be little bit heavier and lil complex to use.. I am a amateur photographer upgrading from Olympus 350sz with 64 mb which served me for good 6 years. Thanks Tanveer & Amit_mechengg for all the gyan on the FZ35 and shop location @pune respectively ![]() Dealer told that when launched, it would cost somewhere around 30k. Anyways, looking forward to getting to know nifty secrets of FZ35 from all gurus here ![]() |

Try a ISO 100 pic with low shutter speed (keep the camera in shutter priority mode) or if you have a fast lens (around 1.8 - 2 aperture) try the aperture priority mode with widest open aperture. Do this on a tripod. | |

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() Rahul, camera will automatically select high ISO when light is low. So go to "M" mode. Select ISO 100/80 Put aperture at F2.8 shutter speed 1/100 IS - Mode 2 Focus Mode - AF on shutter half press If you are using a tripod, then switch of IS |

| ![]() Hi, Its been a while since i got my HS10. The camera works flawless. Ofcourse i am no PRO to comment. But for me it works fantastic. Below is the pic i clicked of Moon on full zoom without tripod. Pls share your comments and DO's & DONT's. More pics can be seen in my FB profile which were clicked using the FujiFine PIX HS10. http://www.facebook.com/#!/album.php...146&aid=422723 Cheers! Last edited by h@r$h@l : 26th May 2010 at 14:15. |

Team-BHP Support ![]() ![]() | ![]() I was talking about P&S cams. For DSLR F8 is okay, for P&S like FZ35 sharpest pics are around F4.5 or something |

| ![]() that's exactly how it works. the latest firmware (1.02) fixes the issue of battery indicator coming on too soon. I am still on 1.01. |

| ![]() Guys, The horizontal and vertical resolution of Panny FZ35 is 180dpi. Is this better or bad than the competition cameras which report 300dpi horizontal and vertical resolutions ? Rahul |

| ![]() Anyone know if there is a firmware update to the Canon Powershot A540 or A510? Not the open source one - one released by Canon? |
