Photograph and Camera talk

Thanks Till! Yeah I played around with my friends G11 this past weekend but I have not had a chance to mess around with the S90 yet. Maybe if I have not made my decision by the time Beatle gets out her she would be kind enough to let me look hers over? Although I am very impatient and will most likely be at the store tomorrow playing around with them.

lol…it´s always a good thing if u can handle the camera prior to buying....just run to a store that sells them and compare ...

I will be at the store tomorrow.

So I went in to Best Buy today to check out the Camera situation. After about 30 minutes of physically comparing the two I am now leaning toward the S90. If anyone can find it cheaper than $380 please let me know. Thanks!

You can try eBay with 8% bing cashback for ~$330-340.

Pulled the trigger on the S90 today… Damn I am gonna love that thing to pieces! G12 comes out in August I believe... 

[Beatle]

Congrats….I´m kind of happy that you went for the S90..it´s such a great compact camera...best thing is that it looks so simple and low key !

[LandoCal126 0]

I am happy to! After going and holding them combined with the fact that I plan on eventually getting a DSLR. In addition, the G12 comes out and I could definitely see myself getting that when it comes out. Thanks for the advice. Many more High Quality (Finally!!!) flicks to come…

Congrats on the S90 LandoCal. Nice pick-up. More Brad Pitt-lookalike pics to come from you ! (Where'd you get those fat lips ?).

I am having issues uploading my photos since yesterday. When I connect my S90 to my computer it should automatically open up my chosen Program to upload the photos. I have checked the preferences, rebooted the computer, tried both USB ports, checked the cord, etc… Help if you can. Thanks!

[Beatle]

go to My computer and check if the memory card shows up at all…

[LandoCal126 0]

I use a mac so no "My Computer" but no, it is not showing up anywhere…

[Beatle]

try with a card reader..if that doesn't work I would think the memory card is corrupted

Yes, and it says "Communication Error" on the Camera Display Screen…

[dizco]

communication error? maybe it's from the camera, does the memory card works?

[LandoCal126 0]

It isn't the camera. I have narrowed it down to the memory card. I just bought a new one recently and tried it, it works. The message "Communication Error" only comes up when my old card is in the camera. Damn, I hope last nights photos are not screwed… They show up on the camera...

[Seul]

SD card?.. I'd try putting it into another device (smartphone) and check from there…

[LandoCal126 0]

Problem solved. Card was maxed out. Thought it would tell me it was full. Erased a few photos and was able to upload the remainders. New card, PERFECT TIMING!

No idea what I'm doing wrong, but all my pics are turning out shitty… Out of focus, red eyes,... What are some adviced/ general setting to take pics inside with shitty light (from a bulb) and the autospanner function?..

Camera's a Lumix DMC-ZX1 if that helps...
