some birds on the water. white duck i was about 10-12 feet away...mallard probably 25 feet...was able to zoom in and snap it while he was swimming to the side. i love how there is no blur, and crystal clear.

If that camera is anything like the S2 then you have a really good macro mode, super macro mode (you can touch the flower on the glass and still focus) and a very good video recording ability.

hm. i was like 2-3 feet away from them zoomed in when i took those.

 

so i should turn it on macro/super macro and get in pretty close for the picture?

 

i think i can use the macro on auto mode, but for the super macro i think it has to be in manual mode, and theres too many settings i dont know what they do and i dont know how to mess with them

If you want to do a simple automated picture of a flower or other close up subject turn your dial to portrait. It will do a simple "macro" type of setting for your shot.

 

You can also turn the dial to "P" and it will adjust everything for you and you should also be able to select some of the features that "auto" won't allow. This is a quick way of getting the camera to do more things without having to worry about all the full manual things.

 

Also you can mess with any setting you want on the camera and it will return to its default position after you turn it off/on. Well most settings that matter anyway.

Here's a couple things I was able to shoot today/night with my new set up as well.

M57 - Ring Nebula 6 30second frames stacked and processed in photoshop not great, but you should have seen the fog bank I was shooting through.

Hehe photobucket pwned my beautiful stormy sky shot and it actually helped my deep space one look better. Blah go figure.

 

BTW the tiny star in the middle of that ring is the remaining neutron star from the explosion that caused the ring of debris.
