Title: What do you think of these?
Post by: gjtoth on April 06, 2009, 09:12:15 PM
Just picked up a couple of new cameras - Nikon P-90 and a Olympus E-410 that I pick up Wednesday.  These are some shots from the P-90.  The top two were shot racked out through double-glazed glass.

With tripod

Hey Gary!

Some great focus there.  I don't know that camera!  Fantastic though!

It just came out at the end of March, Pat.  The P-90 has become my new carry-around.  I've sold my Oly SP570UZ and picked up an Oly E-410 with extras from Craigslist.  The price could NOT be passed up an I think I'm ready to migrate to dSLR as my main squeeze.  Here's the P-90 specs:

Gary, that looks great!

I still use my Nikon Coolpix 950 as the macro feature on that camera is amazing.

And Paul (my husband) is using my Nikon Coolpix 8700.  It's a great camera as well.

I'd like a carry around cam that would fit into my purse and I'd take it all the time when I don't feel like carrying my Nikon D80

These are beautiful shots, man I love birds!

All you folks shooting birds have inspired me, I just bought a new zoom lens and an extension ring today for some bird photography.  :)

I just got an Oly E-410 and the Nikon P-90 but, to date, all of my captures have been made with P&S cameras.  Take a trip to my pseudo-blog and have a look.  I think they did a admirable job.

That camera does a great job. 

I Love the second bird,  but the flowers are lovely as well.
