You get any luck on TGR or otherwise?

I found a couple, thanks!
the availability of them are state-side, and by the time I pay the duty and postage on the price listed, I could get brand new here. So I am just waiting for a posting this side of the border. Thanks! Gar (I bought a 2nd hand Nikon N90s stateside and when I picked it up, Canada Post slapped a 30buck duty tax on it pissed me right off

No worries The photographer is a he, and I think the camera did a rather good job in very low visibility and heavy snowfall. It's a pocket camera, anything bigger hurts when you fall

your camera certainly did make a good job of it in heavy snowfall. I wouldn't have even taken my camera out.
Whoops! I should have checked out your Blogspot before I presumed to give advice. I'd love to have a week at Silver Star or Big White in British Columbia .

I wouldn't do that The image will be nothing other than over-exposed, it's an old, old piece of advice that's never really applied to digital cameras anyway. It's just repeated enough that it sounds quite plausible. In fact, it's so distorted you can find people sagely advising to reduce a couple of stops to deal with the high light which is funny.
What people may find works is setting landscape mode on point and shoot digital cameras on the slopes rather than auto (for this tip = no charge)

I'm a die hard film photographer. It works well for me. I just got a fancy Canon G10, it's a sweet camera no doubt but I haven't yet learned to use the programmed settings. I set it to aperture priority and then compensate as usual. I guess as I get better acquainted with the programmed settings. Even on my N90s's I still don't use the programmed modes. New tricks for old dogs? I guess I still salivate when I see a camera with a metal body and an aperture ring on the lens

When it comes to skiing, there's a difference between what you think it's going to be like, what it's really like, and what you tell your friends it was like. | |
