Down on the Farm with the Canon a590

The trip to the farm with the canon a590 was interesting, the little camera has potential. I like the option of manual control or full auto point and shoot, and it fits in my pocket. It sure beats lugging around the old Ftb and a sack of glass. For 150 bucks it's a bargain even if it doesn't shoot in RAW out of the box. A sample of the experiments are posted at flickr, I'll post more later.....jwilliam

New Camera.. A590 canon Power Shot

This was the second day of playing around with the camera. The first day I spent playing with the menu and settings. Mostly took a lot of pictures of my shoes.

This has been tacked to my bulletin board for a couple of years.....do pass it on.


This little guy was on the path to the mail box today. Google says he's a Crablike Spiny Orb-Weaver (Gasteracantha elipsoides) and he's supposed to be friendly.



Hand held macro with flash...not bad for a $150.00 pocket camera. I have a trip to the old farm planed this week. I'll put this cam in my right pocket and fill my left pocket with batteries. ........jwilliam...

I have a funny feeling about this UI

Is it just me or does this Plurk timeline remind you of HEE HAW. Remember, heads popping out of a cornfield saying weird shit.
