    Comment by 'Guest' in media 'Great Frigatebird'

    Thank you all for the nice comments. Regarding the S602, I updated to the S9000 and sent the S602 to a friend as a present. I wish I had it back. It was much quicker to focus and had a sharper lens in my opinion. It was also lighter and smaller. As to being lucky enough to go to the Galapagos...

    A good camera for a beginner?

    The Panasonic FZ18 does indeed use battery. It is a recharagble battery and you can buy spares so that when the first battery expires, you pop in a freshly charged one. For cameras that use AA batteries you should invest in Rechargable NiMH batteries and have at least two sets for the same...

    Comment by 'Guest' in media 'Sunset at Toptor, Dartmoor UK'

    A beautiful shot, but I am puzzled by the lighting. How did you get the sunset, which is clearly behind the rock formations, to shine on the face of the rock facing the camera.
