Yes, I've been using my Nikon 8700, but there is so much to learn. I've never had a camera which demanded such attention to little buttons and nested menus. Mostly I use the automatic "point and shoot" mode. There has been a lively discussion of the relative merits of several Nikon models: 8700, 8800, and 8400. The last two have the image stabilization feature. It seem to me that the more serious photographers prefer the 8400 or 8800 over the 8700. Others feel that the Panasonic FZ20 is well worth considering. I attach two photos taken with my 8700. Neither is just as it came from the camera, but the changes are mostly cropping. If you use an EXIF viewer, you may be able to see some of the technical details. To discover if the EXIF data survives email attachment, I'm sending myself copies. Best wishes, Mac >Hi Mac >How are you?
