Yes, I think something is up with your camera. It shouldn't be eating up the battery power like that, either.

(Practically every gathering I have is a silly hat party, so this would hardly be something new.)<br /><br />Regarding the camera, Daryl, thanks, but I think I've temporarily fixed it. Sooska - thanks for that info. I have figured out how to set it to the high setting on Auto, so we'll see how that goes. I am starting to wonder if something's wrong overall, though. It's burning through batteries way quicker than it should, and sometimes I get a lens error. If something happens to that camera, I don't know what I'll do. But that's a worry for another day...<br /><br />Thomas-I noticed that too and thought it was funny.<br /><br />Thanks to everyone for commenting.

ISO 400 is for lower light conditions. Most cameras on AUTO take an average of the light the sensors receive from all sources. <br />You can test your camera by a rather easy method of "bracketing" your shots. Do a test by focusing on different areas of the same framed photo. First, aim at the water or sky. Then aim at the trees on the shoreline, orsome other darker spot. You should notice a difference in the values of your photos. Then aim at a middle value or between the brightest and darkest areas and see what it will look like. It is easy way to bracket and test if you aren't familiar with manual settings. Bracketing typically involves changing the f-stop.<br /><br />I'd read your manual and see what buttons may have been pressed that may have changed a setting. It shoudl tell you the default settings for the AUTO feature. Other than that, maybe something happened to the camera.Sooskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13661823108172059505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-81591653362873614662011-11-07T11:31:06.421-05:002011-11-07T11:31:06.421-05:00Love oysters Rockefeller and I'm sure they ha...Love oysters Rockefeller and I'm sure they have great ones.
