Discussion
WOWOWOWOW
Only taken about a hundred pics so far with the D70. Mainly of my family's xmas celebrations, but i just took a bunch of my dogs and i'm stunned by the quality of all the photos.
I've set everything to AUTO until i can work out what the feck every switch and button does.
The photos have come out so crisp! I actually took a few photos with my old point and shoot earlier in the day and comparing the two really shows how good the dSLR is!
I'm at my mum's place so can't post any pics easily so i'll take a load more and post a few good ones once i'm back in the city next week.
Cheers all. I'm one blooming chuffed dSLR owner
(just a quick qu. When i took a few pics with a light in the background, when viewing that image on the camera's viewer, the areas of strong light flash with black... but are fine when transfered to computer. Is this just the camera showing up areas of over-exposure?)

Glad you like it Rico: it will keep you busy for a long time!
The flashing areas are because you have the viewfinder display set to Highlights mode: it warns you when the highlights are burnt out. This is very handy to know, as you can't recover details from burnt-out areas afterwards. You can either live with it, use -EV (RTM
) or fill-in flash to help reduce the exposure latitude in the scene.
