yeah its still going strong, gives excellent images despite being used for nearly 3 years. however the dial near the shutter keeps getting clogged with dirt, starts to 'slip' nothing much about newer SLRs appeals except HD video.

price seems rather good. It was selling at around 600/late 500s last year

regarding your qns: 1) perhaps you need to scroll down more, because 'image adjust' option is in the lower half of the first segment of the menu 2) sometimes some options cannot be selected when others are enabled, like Raw can't be used if Face Detection/Smart Range, or Face Detection can't...

Well I don't like the high ISO performance, too much softening of details. (However I always forget to use flash since the switch is not really obvious at first). Another thing: Not all functions will work if 1 is selected. For example, EV, Face Detection not available if using SmartRange...

May I know how much a battery for the EX-1 costs? I got quotes from 2 shops, 1 gave extra batt but $30 more, so trying to decide which one to buy.

1. in what area is critique to be sought? composition, lighting, exposure 2. what one hopes to achieve with the piece of work? show the union made by this couple as they run the noodle stall together. their common bond is the bowl of noodles which both of them hold. 3. under what...

well actually my school is worse off than yr's. Our "club" of student photographers isn't even an actual CCA, though a teacher is at the helm. It has no cameras of its own, relying on student's own equipment (hence the modest lenses). With not much guidance provided for us, I think the school...
