new digital camera

[LA_MERC_Mercy]

got me a new digital camera today...very sweet 6.3megapixel fuji s5000

this is one of my cat jumping up on the counter..bad cat bad

the orginal size is 2816x2120pixals and i condensed it down to 800x602

[LA_MERC_Mercy]

oh it was also set at a shutter speed of 1/500 sec i think...or something around there..

[pattont]

very nice.. although i looked that camera up.. it says its only a 3.1 mega pixel camera.. see here.... (http://www.digitalcamera-hq.com/fuji-finepix-s5000-reviews.html)

If you would read it says at the size 2816x2120 it is 6 mega pixels, and that's on the link that you posted!

WTH you arguing for?

"One camera that got a lot of people's attention in late July was Fuji's new FinePix S5000 ($499). The S5000 is a mix of the FinePix 3800 and S602 models, and it's also Fuji's first Ultra Zoom (10X) camera. The S5000 uses a 3.2 Megapixel SuperCCD HR sensor, which can produce images with 6 million pixels (through interpolation)."

That was on another website, now it says its through interpolation, well i had no idea what that meant.. Go
here (http://www.dtp-aus.com/interpol.htm). All that pretty much says is the camera "paints" the image at the said quality.. I don't know whether it actually means it protrays 6 mega pixels or if it just takes 3.2 and paint what 6.0 "would" look, as far as you know it could be a 5mp how can u tell other than what these sites and ur box says..

[LA_MERC_Mercy]

IT IS 6MEGAPIXELS...i have already taken several at that quality...

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

look matrix...it's a camera.....nuff said..

congtars on the new camera!! Does it take video?

[LA_MERC_Mercy]

camcorder quality..trying to figure out how i can put some up, but for a 30sec clip, it is something like 30megs..

[LA_MERC_Dirge]

Well that's strange... You extrapolate out to something, like an estimate of what it would be... Interpolation consists of finding values within a know range of data... hmmm, oh well! Cool camera

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

lmao, i was thinking the same thing dirge lol...i guess that's the engineer in us (not literally!)

[Rayban]

I just snagged a Rebel digital . . . it is so cool having the extra megapixels - my last cam was a 2.1 mp Olympus.

Th rebel rox so far - pictures as good as the 10D but $600 less list . . .

[$pecto|2]

man, ive always wanted a really good digi camera with good zoom and high megapixel, but gota get g-card and montior and hard drive/s b4 that *sigh.... That one looks very cool though Mercy. GJ.

[pattont]

thats cool.. i was just being stupid i guess.. nothing personal.. It is a nice camera though..

[pattont]

we got the camera today at sears, i fooled with it for like 20 min.. its SWEET. and yes its 6mp.. i have one question though.... WHY did they make us use their picture cards.. thats the stupidiest thing ever, why couldn't they just use SD..

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

hmmmm...."stupidiest"???? does anyone have a definition for this?

[$pecto|2]

Wow that is one helluva a camera with some kinda special effects if it took a picture of Andy at work!

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

hahahah! CG at work, baby!

[LA_MERC_Sabre]

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

Mercy probably MS Painted something in there so Andy wouldn't feel so bad... ;)

[LA_MERC_Diesel]

I would have thought the glasses would make him look smarter, but..
:nono
:p:

and $pecto|2, LMAO....Al took a few pucks to the head in his lifetime.

[LA_MERC_Andyconda]

Just for clarification the stuff in my right hand is my bowl, a can of spagettio's, and a coke. I was on the way to lunch when the Service Manager pulled me aside to show me a problem we were having with a compressor I designed. Come to find out his digital flow meter was off. Our quality department had "fixed it" sorry calibrated it, so it was understandably off. I tested the unit in the Engineering Lab, it ran fine, we shipped it, crisis diverted. Brent the Service manager in the picture (Ernie's direct Boss) is a very intellegent man with years of experience, but hasn't figured out yet you don't stop the Conda on his way to the trough. Limbs are lost that way.

[LA_MERC_Yankee]

I was just wondering what you need the can of peanut butter for in the first pumpkin picture??

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

hahaha. *note to self...don't stop Andy if he's about to eat...check*

[LA_MERC_Diesel]

This is me and Andy's type of lunch...:d:
