Taken with my A80. It was a bit cloudy and I was playing with the settings, so it's not the best.

I think I'd like to upgrade to the Canon S2 IS. I really like the zoom capabilities. Has anyone had any experience with it? I've read some pretty good reviews at dpreview.com.

here's one; taken at an aquarium

(not the usual flower either)

d70 with no specials. the aquarium one needed iso 1600 (aquariums wont allow tripods) but the graininess is acceptable (i think) i believe these aquarium one at around 30mm, flower 70mm

one more (just noticed people posting panos here: my specialty :D)

its about 6 pictures put together, all oriented vertically for max pixels. final picture weighs in at 5102x2647, cropped. taken at nef, and used pttools, then superheavy editing in photoshop cause no matter how much you set in pttools its not gonna get all those lines. all were distort editing. oh, and this is millenium park in chicago :D

What's the cichlid at the top? I know the blue ones are some varieties of Mbuna/Malawi/Rift cichlid, but the pale one at the top confuses me... I know I've seen them somewhere before, just trying to remember if I ever kept any (Not had tropical fish for 8 or 9 years now).

The top one is Heros Efasciatus (Gold): "Gold Severum" (South American), middle one is Metriaclima Callainos: "Cobalt Blue" (African), last one is Aulonocara Stuartgranti (Ngara): "Flametail Peacock" (African).

Hope that helps. You should get back into fish. They are sooo relaxing to watch. If you ever want to get into cichlids, give me a shout. I'm a member of the CRLCA (Canadian Rift Lake Cichlid Association), so I can give you lots of advice ;)

Gold Severum - that's the name I was trying to remember.

Yeah I'd like to get back into fish eventually - but not yet, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to look after them properly at the moment.

I'd love to get back into cichlids... I used to keep Firemouths, Rams, Convict Cichlids, Oscars, and a nice selection of the blue african rift vally cichlids. Amazing fish.

    • Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.
    • And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
    • "This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time" ... Lol.
    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
