Anyone else here using this camera? I've recently purchased one and I'm still testing out the different settings they have for Manual. Any advise how to utilize this camera to it's fullest potential would be a great help. Thanks in advance.

As most probably dont have that camera, I would suggest reading the review on dpreview.com (do a search there) in depth to learn the strengths and weaknesses of this camera, then apply the general help you see in Photography 101 from other posts to adjust your picture taking. It's not difficult the terminology is the same.

Well, since there is no additional cost to shoot more. The best advice I can think if is to shoot LOADS and analyze which settings gives you the best results of whatever type of situation that you use the camera for.

There is really lots you can do with this little wonder and getting the most out of it actually comes in 2 parts. Understanding photography and understanding the camera. It may sound trivial, but until you have a specific question, these are probably the only type of advice that you will see.

Let's see more pictures!

Cheers,
