Getting the best out of an S9500

Hi,

I recently purchased a Fuji S9500. (Also known as the S9000 over in the US?)
I would like to know in order to get the clearest, most crisp shots available, what setting should I use? :)

If there is such thing as a manual setting etc. that is best, could you explain it to me?

I've taken clear shots with it, but would like to get the best possible shots with it.


Thanks,
Alyx

im very interested in how you like your camera

I love it so far!
It's so easy to use, and since I used to use the the S3500 I was so tempted to upgrade to this (that and the fact that I was in need of a new one, as I dropped the S3500 :rolleyes: )

They are nice camera's. Light, easy to use and bundled with features.
Exposure is excellent, and I love the size of the photographs.

Overall, a great camera in my opinion. I reccomend you get it!



Thanks,
Alyx

I've put up a couple of 'sample' shots on my slowly growing website, www.alyxtakla.com

Look under the flowers section, as that is the only part that has been started.
It has 16 smaller, lower resolution sample photographs of what the S9500 is capable of.

8 new railway photographs are up.
For the best quality one, click the first image. :)


Has anybody got any suggestions as to the best setting for my camera?

Hmmm, you might be disappointed to know there is no one best setting.
Each image needs the right setting for what you're trying to achieve.

Do you want everything sharp, with no movement blur?
Do you want only some things sharp, so your subject stands out from the background?
Do you want to blur the running water of a waterfall, or waves on a beach?

All need different settings to get different results.

Sorry about the slow response.
I'm just looking at getting more "DSLR" type photographs (clearer and sharper) from the camera, rather than a typical dull-type digital photo. Mainly the contrast, sharpness and lighting etc.

Hope that makes sense,
Alyx
