28mm Wide Angle Leica Lens

Haven't had a chance to have a play yet... the missus took it off me and wrapped it up, so I get it for xmas... yay!

Went out looking at tripod's today for it. I wanna play with night mode, even tho, i know its not a DSLR, but I want to see what it can do. Saw some for like $69 ish... might wait till after Xmas sales tho i thinks... maybe

$69 is cheap for a tripod!!! you should get decent night shots with it aslong as you keep the ISO as low as possible.

yah it was no manfrotto number... or what ever it is. But it was some kind of brand. Seemed pretty sturdy..

yeah im gonna need tips big time.

ISO down for night shots... any more hints?

I went one of the olympus un-killable ones before the trip to Tassie cos I have a habit of dropping stuff and so far it has survived without a mark and didn't complain after getting driven into the snow a few times either.

10 megapixles and so far 90% of my pics have come out pretty dam good. Lots of pre-set modes to so setting up for your pics is really easy.

Those Olympus "un-breakable" ones are a bit hit and miss.

My sister had one, it dropped 50cm off a small coffee table onto some tiles and the screen cracked down the middle.

Olympus were going to deny warranty on it, but she jumped up and down, quoted their sales literature which actually mentions hard numbers about its strength (something about a 100kg person being able to sit on it or something without breaking), and they replaced it.

my trusty p&s sony dsc-p200....beach + water + sand = not so happy camera!

so im in the market to replace it, anyone had experience with the sony t700 series of camera's?

thanks in advance
