Welcome to Canonland
A familiar view, taken with a new camera. Flickr reduced the resolution to XGA (1024*768), the original is 2500*1900.
As a first impression I'm disappointed, the image seems noisy and garish compared to the Nikon's more muted colours and softer transitions. But perhaps I have not properly set it up?
BTW although the Nikon died, its accessories are still in working order. If anyone wants an EN-EL1 battery & charger, a 512Mb CompactFlash card (or the dead camera itself) then mail me.
In other news courtesy of Tim Bray, a most amazing video. How many thousands of hours of hard work do these five minutes represent?

That video!!! I am weeping in joy and amazement. Thank you thank thank you for that link! I MUST forward it. WOW!
iPhoto.
'nuf said.
Er, not quite 'nuf. Should I use iPhoto or avoid it? In any case, the problem appears to be in the photos because they appear just as garish and noisy in Graphic Converter.
Perhaps I shall have to read the manual.
wow. i have the Nikon CoolPix E885 and would love an extra battery! do you think it is the right one for that camera?
hmm.. i am looking at it and it says EN-EL1 so i guess that must be it.
is it still up for grabs? *rushes off to mail you*
Um, I thought the picture was pretty. So there.
I tried to comment before but Blogger ate it.
That video was totally cool. I never thought I'd enjoy watching juggling.
I like the picture. Have fun with the new camera!
iPhoto is what makes my shots work. I always play with them, always. Enhance works sometimes, or I desaturate, or adjust the contrast, sharpness, color balance, straighten, crop, copy a few and play with them in different ways then compare. Not as versatile as Photoshop, but very user friendly, much easier, and often quite sufficient unto the day.
I loved the rhythum and coordination with the music of that video. That guy must have a pretty developed cerebellum. Nice new picture. I think you should do an autopsy on the dead camera.
