Panasonic DMC-TZ55

Does anyone use the Panasonic DMC-TZ55 camera please? I have a friend who is trying to use hers for video but the manual is very vague on manual adjustments for exposure etc.
Thanks.

Fatally Injured Camera

...Disaster...My wee Canon G9 camera has packed in, stopped working, gave up the ghost.

Who will print.

Anyone care to recommend a company who will print some photos in various sizes between A4 and A3.

Cheers.

Anyone recommend CGI software?

I take photographs of furniture for a few different companies. Each one is taken with flash heads and softbox on black carpet against a white wall. I need to put more oomph into these and thought a cgi of a wall with an attractive window looking out onto a garden would look good on the left hand side of the image.
Anyone do this sort of thing or recommend software please?

Burning stills to CD for play on DVD/CD player (not pc)

John R.Hall — Sat, 29 Mar 2014 11:34:13 +0000

have tried 'freebies' with undesirable consequences ! The windows burner says it'll play on external player - but does not.
Am willing to pay.
Which is the least expensive that you'll recommend please.

Wi-Fi enabled SDHC cards

The beauty of using my phone as a camera is the ease and speed with which I can email the pictures to anyone and everyone. But I've been having a read of these new Wi-Fi enabled Transcend SDHC cards and they appear to be able to do a similar sort of thing with shots taken on my Canon DSLR.

Anyone tried this? Any snags I should know about as the cards are about 3x the price of a standard SDHC card.

Burning a slideshow of stills plus music

John R.Hall — Thu, 05 Dec 2013 00:07:57 +0000

I've created a small slideshow with transitions and music and want to burn a CD/DVD to play on an external player.

So far my efforts have produced a disc that plays through the pc but not the tv.

Would someone please advise the best format to suit this purpose please

Framing a shot

This is the honest truth.

Visiting my brother yesterday and were in the back garden, when his wife joined us with an iPad she has been given.

"It takes photos" she said and so the brother and I strike a pose.

Standing about seven feet in front of us and holding the iPad in readiness, my sister-in-law says to us in all seriousness "Could you bend your knees a bit, I cant get your heads in"

She couldn't understand why my brother and I began laughing.
