Camera Details....

Here is my baby!

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX15

My husband bought this for me a couple years ago for Christmas. Our other camera had fallen off the counter and hadn't been the same since. I think the final straw was when my daughters birthday pictures hadn't turned out because we were using a disposable camera. I was devistated!

I have pretty much taught myself the settings and I know there is still lots to know. I play around with the settings depending on what I am shooting.

The lightning pictures I had the dial set to manual and I was leaving the shutter open for 8 seconds and had the apeture setting on 8.0. I put it on the manual focus, but on this camera if you press it all the way down it first auto focuses to get the closests sharp focus. Then I would leave it for a few shots and repeat this again so it would refocus automatically.

It has been a great camera for me and I have completely switched to digital now, since I know I can rely on this camera to take great pictures!
