With my CP 990 I mostly take pictures of musicians on stage, often under bad light conditions, for publishing purposes in magazines. I bought the iNova filters...
Gerard, There is no such thing as minimum compression (10) that is offered by the camera. Once out of the camera, you should not normally be saving files in...

Hey Ken, Very nice shots of Vegas. We're going out there to get married at the end of this month. I'll be taking my 995, wide angle, and soon-to-arrive Nikon...
Hi all! I have a question about a problem I have with my 990. Every time I use the self timer, it chooses macro mode. I have not figured out how to override...
Are you sure the camera is shooting in macro mode? Or is it just displaying the macro icon because it always does when using the self timer. It has on five...
I've not had a problem with my camera being in macro mode when photographing distant objects. The camera will still focus on the distant objects OK. Perhaps...
I think I know what you are talking about, maybe not. I use the self timer all the time on INFinity so that the camera will not refocus after timeout. Since...
Thanks for all the responses. In answer to a couple of the early replies, the camera seems to focus on whatever is closest in the viewfinder. In other words,...

From: "train_junkie" <train_junkie@...> ... You must have a defective camera. In macro mode, my CP990 will focus all the way from infinity to 2CM with...
You might want to check for AUTO FOCUS -> AREA MODE -> MANUAL. This gives you 5 small brackets which show the area that the camera will use to focus. You can...

David, My camera (CP 990) is on automatic image correction mode. Are these corrections "turning up the gain", as you say ? Should I turn it to normal (none)...
For my experience, always take image with - 2 step image (-0.6) correction because underexposed image are simple to manipulate and i don't lost information,...

Gerard, That's settled one thing, you are minimising the compression in the camera, so it is unlikely the JPEG artefacts come from that source. When talking...

David, I just posted 2 images (called Musician 1 and Musician 2) on the photos area for this group. These 2 images come from a CP 990 at high JPEG quality ...
Gerard, Many thanks for that. The guitarist I can get as JPEG, but the saxophonist seems to insist on saving as BMP (from IE6.0). I have not seen that sort of...
David, I just posted the guitarist image just as it is out of the camera before any processing. But I'm afraid you will still notice those weird artefacts... I...
Richard, Why don't you take a photo of the hard copy you have, and post it. Perhaps we can track it from there. ... From: "Kushner, Richard A (Richard)"...
the noise is indicative of when the camera has reached its limits and can't get enough light to work with, the gridding comes from the jpeg artificating...
All of my shots were taken without tripod. One can always improvize and I doubt a newlyweb would want to lug a tripod around. mavicator however is correct, a...
Gerard, Thanks for that. As Charlie says, you are simply seeing what the camera produces when the gain is turned up very high, because you can see the same...
