Any comments? David |

Any comments? Totally agree. Plus, as this is still a low traffic group I wouldn't bother too much whether the C500z fits or does not fit. Kind regards robert |

Kind regards robert The C5000z has most of the things listed above however I would generally define my skill level as far below that required to make full use of them. I'm very much a point and shoot person and compensate by having worked with photoshop for 6 years. so, I'll stay here then where I'll probably understand most things B |

I would suggest that more work, effort and skils used at the time the photo is taken is many times more valuable than photoshop... -- -- r.p.e.35mm user resource: http://www.aliasimages.com/rpe35mmur.htm -- r.p.d.slr-systems: http://www.aliasimages.com/rpdslrsysur.htm -- [SI] gallery: http://www.pbase.com/shootin -- [SI] rulz: http://www.aliasimages.com/si/rulz.html -- e-meil: there's no such thing as a FreeLunch. |
