All of these pictures were taken using the camera's "High Quality" setting.
Let's start with a picture of the refrigerator magnets (taken with flash). This mini-picture has been brightened in Adobe Photoshop. Click on the picture to see the original, unretouched photo (200K bytes) You may wish to compare it with the ones I've taken with my other digital cameras:
The macro mode is also quite something. You really should click the picture to see the original, unretouched photo (200K bytes). [Compare with the cropped Nikon 900 soda can photo.]
Of course, I couldn't let a "first pictures" page go by without a picture of
my favorite subject, Tabitha the cat. Click the picture to see the
larger version (71K), which was brightened 20%
in PaintShop Pro 5 and cropped and saved in Adobe
Photoshop.
