any new recommendations for a good point and click Camera?  I regret not picking up the s95 when it was on sale in Dec.

@Giles:

need to exposure compensate (and if you have a G!2 that's dead easy), or get a wireless remote…

think i'll get a self timer for my bday.  just one of those things i can not buy for myself. tell me more about this exposure compensate

[Giles]

what camera do you have?

[madmonday]

G12 & crackberry

[Giles]

The exposure compensation dial on the G12 is the dial on the top left of the camera.

I woud do the following.  Set the camera pointing at a static image.  Then take 5 shots:  +2, +1, 0. -1 and -2,  see how the exposure of the shot changes.  From this you should be able to work out how to adjust the exposure when you take pics on the timers.

It'll take a bit of practice.

And read this….
