Focus Pocus

Like Narayanan Sir pointed out, the picture of the baby was out of focus.

Sometimes the camera has a mind of its own, thanks to the advanced technology!

If you look into my viewfinder you find 9 focus points in the shape of a diamond. Obviously, when I have the little one in a big chair and the chair is a few feet in front of a wall, the camera decides that it got a hit on 4 points out of 9 on the chair, 4 on the wall and 1 on the kid! So, it focused on the chair. The fact that baby is a fast mover, does not help.

Now that I have read the manual, I can actually make sure that the point that lights up in red is the center point! and the results are much better.




The zoom rocks! Picked this little one at almost 90 feet!


Poonam wanted the little one parceled to her. Tonight I plan to post some photos when baby is doing combo #1. Poonam will beg for a return shipping label after seeing those photos..

Wonderful now !. Very nice Sundar !

Be careful when you change lenses. After struggling for a long time I finally cleaned my CCD today.

Dust gets in easily and it spoils all photos until cleaned.

no parceling Jr. she is the lion tamer right now.. baby is of course the aforementioned lion.

poonam, are you serious ?

kavi, thanks

Narayanan Sir, Finally no lens changing. The only reason I got the Tamron and not the Canon or even the Sigma is that this Tamron lens is 18-200 mm !!! Goes wide angle to Telephoto. It was designed specifically with lazy guys like me in mind. (it was also every expensive!). And the final good news. This camera has an automatic lens cleaning system. the image sensor vibrates and shakes off dust everytime I power up and powerdown the camera.

Ohh I fell in love with the little one after seeing her Dancing with Dino video! :)

I guess Jr. will be lonely w/o baby and I wouldn't want to separate the two ;)

Waiting for the combo #1 pictures!
