yeah, you guys got robbed last year on a touchdown call if i remember, ND looks about the same as last year, no offence and decent defense... should be a good one

except their not gonna have the luck they had last year. not just the michigan game, but every game they played in last year they won on totally lucky bounces that i'd never seen in my 15 years of watching football. they showed their true selves when they got creamed by usc.

this year will be different.

back to cameras :)

anyone gonna get a canon 300d? i think i'm gonna get one...

My mom just got the Kodak EasyShare DX6440 Digital Camera. We've taken quite a few pictures, but I was just wondering how this camera rates with the others out there. We also got the EasyShare dock and printer so you can make 4x6 pictures straight from the camera which is pretty cool. I'll have to start taking some pictures. :D

That night shot is amazing. How did you get it so clear? Mine always come out blurred.

What I've found is that night shots from a distance are best done without a flash. That of course depends on the amount of available light entering the lens. Shots of the moon for instance would be dark and blurry. If I had taken the same shot with the flash on then the cam would have absorbed the flash fill and washed out the shot. I took 600 shots over 5 days and will probably delete 200 of them. I typically shot each pic in B&W, Color/Auto, Color/Manual/Iso100.

Thanks for the info. I do agree with the above tips. For scenic night shots I always leave the flash off and I set the ISO speed as high as possible. (400 typically as this allows for more light to enter the lens) Are you using a tripod by any chance? Perhaps I just don't have a very steady hand.

keldyn, be very wary of using anything higher than iso 100 on any non-slr camera. you will get TONS of noise. if i recall correctly, you don't have manual controls on your s400. if you use night mode, it will set your exposure pretty slow, probably like .5-1sec. unless you are using a tripod, you will get tons of camera shake, giving you a blurry image. if you have manual controls, you could speed up the shutter, and open the aperature as wide as possible, thus letting in enough light, but preventing camera shake. your other alternative is using a tripod, or setting the camera on something sturdy.

      Wow, this is some Iran, Cuba, China, Russia, North Korea-level citizen surveillance right there, the UK's government has gone totally mad. Power trip indeed, their politicians are totally out of control about this issue. They're starting to cross limits I wouldn't have imagined, to be honest. British people, fight this, your privacy and freedoms are in danger. Vote this government out of power.
    • Nintendo unveils The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, and it's out this year

      Nintendo unveils The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake, and it's out this year by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Confirming many rumors, Nintendo officially announced a remake of the classic The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the very first game in the series that offered a 3D experience to fans. Unlike previous remasters and re-releases, the originally 1998-released fantasy adventure game is being remade from the ground up for the Nintendo Switch 2 console this time. "The Nintendo 64 classic returns for a new generation in 2026, reborn exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2," said the company about today's announcement. While Nintendo didn't go into much detail about the project, other than confirming its existence, we did get a small teaser trailer at the Direct presentation today. Catch the footage below: With a tapestry as the backdrop, the first half of the trailer tells the tale of Hyrule, the Kokiri forest dwellers, and their fairy companions. It goes onto introduce "one particular boy" without a fairy, which then cuts to a sleeping Link, showcasing what looks like the new art style being introduced in the remake. Unfortunately, no gameplay or a look at the world has been revealed yet. The game originally released for the Nintendo 64 back in 1998, offering a time travel adventure where Link is once again going up against the evil king Ganondorf. The hugely well-received title has only been playable on modern Nintendo consoles using the Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake for the Nintendo Switch 2 doesn't have a firm release date yet, but Nintendo says it will be released sometime in 2026. Considering just how many publishers are avoiding the Grand Theft Auto VI release nowadays, the company may copy that strategy and also opt to bring this out before November this year.
