I've been drooling over the photos on your blog for a while now, and the PowerShot ones are indeed impressive.Darrylhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13786494720632937284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253625.post-13582814303923773762007-07-17T20:00:36.195-05:002007-07-17T20:00:36.195-05:00OK, sorry -- two more bits:<BR/><BR/>- On the PowerShot, macro mode is your friend<BR/><BR/>- Check out http://stilllifewith.com/ for some great food photography lessonsAnitahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16158306976034229048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253625.post-50769921858423983702007-07-17T19:57:58.152-05:002007-07-17T19:57:58.152-05:00Sorry for replying to an old post; I'm just catching up on my reading... <BR/><BR/>Until a few weeks ago, I used a Canon PowerShot A710-IS for all the shots on our blog. Nearly everything you've seen there was shot with a point-and-shoot set to manual, in ambient light.<BR/><BR/>Do I love my new fancy dSLR? Yes. But I'm also not kidding myself that it's worth the extra money I spent on it considering that it's just a hobby. I still use the A710 for wide-angle shots, and around-town pictures.<BR/><BR/>If budget is an issue even the teeniest bit, go for a good P+S and learn to make it sing. :DAnitahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16158306976034229048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253625.post-35086865755521944312007-07-09T13:58:23.450-05:002007-07-09T13:58:23.450-05:00Nice strip of garnish on that, amigo.Gabrielhttp://www.cocktailnerd.comnoreply@blogger.com
