Hi Alan,

Looking good mate, glad you got sorted with it and it has finally arrived for you to have lots of time playing with your new investment.

Auto is a good base to start from, you will get a picture every time here; you can move on then to apperture priority and shutter priority when you are happy to progress further. Have fun.

Looks good, maybe one day. I'll have to stick with the box brownie for now.

I have a disability which has prevented me from being able to use a camera for getting on for 30 years. It's only since getting these torts and seeing others' pics of theirs that got me trying to use my wife's compact digital camera, I had simply given up with other cameras years ago.

Now that I've discovered I can at long last take photos, I've kinda become addicted to it

For years I've been looking at things thinking this or that would make a great photo and now I can actually do it, it's great, like all my christmases at once

Why is this forum working today by the way, it's supposed to be out of action until Monday
