Hi Everyone, Last night I grabbed my trusty old digital camera and went out and took pictures of my 7 foot tall rose standard. The rose standard supports the rose, "The Gift". I thought you might enjoy seeing it. You can see it at the following link, the top picture being the most recent: http://www.gardenerscorner.com/The_Gift.html This will probably be the last pictures taken with this camera, as my new digital camera is to arrive today. After much research, it was a close tie between a Canon S50 Sureshot and a Olympus C4000. I had my friend come over this weekend with her Olympus C4000 and take pictures of some of my red roses, and it has just a little bit more line noise and distortion in it than the Canon. So I chose the Canon. Also I liked the Canon because it has software available while taking the picture that you can adjust the line noise with. -- Chat with you later...
