help - skiing photos
Discussion
Guys,
Any of you got any specific tips for those of us heading out to the slopes in the new year.
Every year I take a whole pile of photos, and sometimes the come out ok, but mostly I end up with a bunch of dot like skiiers heading down a large white background with no definition.
Are there any specific tips for taking pictures in snow? Or is it that my camera (kyocera 3.2MPix auto everything cannon ixus style thing) just isn't up to the job? Would it be worth getting something like a sony DSCf717 to give more control / zoom etc?

Cheers Simpo, I will check out the olympus.
It's always a trade off though when you're skiing between weight / bulk and enjoying your skiing.
I think this year I'll probably set aside a couple of days (Weather dependant) just to (try to!) take decent photos.
top forum this - already checked the winter thread and think I've picked up some tips there which will be useful too.
