I purchased another Fuji camera, I love the lens they use.

This one, an S5000 upgraded me from the 3800. The S5000

is a little more on the "prosumer" side than a point N snap.

I like the 10X optical zoom, RAW mode, and some manual

adjustments of shutter speed etc. The only downside is

that when you shoot in RAW mode, it sucks up the memory

card like a big dog since it's the raw data from the CCD.

In what is called 6m mode (3.1 megapixel + 3 interpolated)

I can shoot just over 80 pics, in RAW mode I can shoot

only 9. Soon as the XD cards come down in price (which

should be soon according to some camera sites) I'm going

to be getting a 256 meg. In RAW mode, that will give me

36 exposures, which, unless I'm at an airshow should be

enough until I can dump em off onto my PC.

I'd really like one of those $5000+ digitals like my cousin

has (he's a NFL photographer) but they are coming down

in price it seems evey 6 months. Won't be long until

the 6megapixel cameras will be down in the mid 300

dollar range

:alien:

Wow - nicely done Keldyn (Y)

A while back I mentioned I was getting a Canon EOS 300D (Digital Rebel) - well, I got it, and have been playing with it a bunch. Still have tons, and tons, and tons to learn. Plus, I need to work on my post-processing. Here are a couple I've taken (and the first I've posted to a website anywhere - heh, too intimidated to post on Fred Miranda's site or dpreview...)

As some of you may know, I'm considering buying a Sony DSC-P52/72 (https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=108932)

Will I be able to get anything like the kind of quality pictures you guys are getting with your cameras ??? (I know some of yours must be at least 2/3x the price)

If anyone has either the P32/52/72 (only difference is the zoom on them) could you post some pics?

andrewfee.. theres no reason why that camera couldn't take the same quality photos. its a 3.2mp. i know thats not everything, but as long as you can adjust settings manually (which is what most of these have done i'm sure), then you're good to go.

i can take similar quality pics with my 3.2mp canon a70 with manual settings. that canon EOS digital rebel though is in another league altogether. you should be able to match keldyn's quality with practice. he's a good photographer :)

Ok, cool I'll try to get the camera then. I've not really done any photography before so it would take me a while to be able to take good pics, but I did expect that - I just wasn't sure if I would be able to take great pics like those without spending huge ammounts of cash.

    • JetBrains is working to cut false positives in RustRover 2026.2 by David Uzondu Recently, JetBrains released the fifth EAP build of its dedicated IDE, RustRover 2026.2, bringing improvements like a Run gutter icon for criterion_main! macro benchmarking and a feature that alerts you when there are unused traits in your current scope. Now, the company is out with a blog post addressing one of the "most common" complaints from users: false positives. In RustRover, a false positive occurs when the editor incorrectly highlights something as an error even though the project compiles and runs successfully. This mismatch flags a gap between the IDE's internal intelligence and the actual compiler. When the editor flashes red warnings over perfectly valid code, developers lose trust in the tool, which stalls momentum. Traditionally, RustRover runs cargo check to detect compiler errors and warnings, but it also relies on its own code analysis engine to power real-time features. To provide quick feedback, this engine parses your source code into a syntax tree while inferring types and resolving names as you type. Because this engine must work on broken, half-written code and react instantly, its logic sometimes diverges from the compiler's, producing false positives that do not exist in the compiler's eyes. JetBrains said that it has a "dedicated task force" focused specifically on identifying and fixing false positives by analyzing user reports and examining large-scale open-source projects. To speed up this process, the team built an internal system modeled after Crater, the famous Rust project that compiles and runs tests for every single crate published on crates.io. This automated pipeline compares the diagnostics from RustRover's analysis with actual compiler output to catch discrepancies before they reach users, ensuring smoother workflows. RustRover, for those who're unaware, is a dedicated IDE designed specifically for Rust developers. It's been around for a couple of years now, providing features like built-in debugging via LLDB, seamless cargo integration, advanced macro expansion, and HTML support. JetBrains distributes the app under two licensing models: a paid commercial subscription and a free option for non-commercial use.
    • Last year I bought the 2TB variant for $114 on Amazon. That's crazy that the 1TB is now 67% more expensive for half the storage, even with the newer T9 already on the market. And that's considered a good deal.
    • You can disable all non needed features from Brave. There is also Brave Origin which removes them entirely and it is free for Linux.
    • I wish I could use Brave but the tab suspension feature is horrible. It doesn't suspend them like Edge does. Even after 2h open with 70+ tabs (same as Edge), it has 2GB more consumption than Edge for no reason.
