Title: Camera Comparison
Post by: gi6ers on February 19, 2007, 05:03:51 PM
2 yr old, 3.2 Megapixel camera without a custom white balance and crud*py lighting:

New 7 Megapixel camera with loads of cool settings and a custom white balance.

The cost difference - £80 and probably a point or two on CMON.

The second pic needed a little adjustment of contrast and NO colour correction.

First one - Olympus, second one Canon A710. Custom white balance - take a reading of your background as white then shoot as normal.
