S90 newbie here... please forgive my amateurish pics, but what more can you expect from an amateur?

Would love feedback on how to improve!
I notice many of my pictures seem noisy... am I using the wrong ISO settings? Or am I just pushing the lowlight comditions too far?

keeying: wow.... ISO800, 1250.... ^^"" u're breaking the compact camera ISO limit, tats why noise many. better keep it as low as possible. ISO400 below are quite acceptable. Use a tripod and longer shutter if u wan to shot in really-really-lowlight-situation.

I see ur settings... i guess u use AUTO izzit?

Awesome pictures there I especially like that bokeh,where was that taken? The vertical 16:9 picture worked pretty well there.Great job

S90 auto ISO goes up to max 800.

But ISO800 to maybe even 1000 at a squeeze can be very usable.

eughh. i know i have yet to upload the original science center pics. will do so later tonight. here are some quick randoms via g10:





i've only just realised DPP has a stamping tool(!).

@Blackbird

Awesome macro shots.U were using a macro conversion lens?

Nope, no conversion lens. Just standard G9.

Unbelievable..Did you crop it

Not these shots. . Can you view all the 3images?

Awesome shots then Nope, i can only view 2 picture.The 2nd one kennot

My fav macro shot. Taken with Olympus SP550UZ. Shot taken in Bali.

Those MIGs must've been flying real low then

Oh yeah. shot taken during the TUDM Subang air show. Wish the G9 had a longer zoom.. haha.

Blackbird: love ur macro shots! and the MIG one just about time too

I just checked and found that I was using Program and Tv for the shots... eventhough I wasn't very sure what I was doing
Yeah I got myself a ciplak gorillapod on Dealextreme... that's how I managed the 15" exposure time

I think next time i'll just stick to ISO <800... i have shaky hands and have a dislike for images taken with flash...

Thanks for the feedback guys!

krrying: use ur internal flash as fill up flash. never use it at night situation

Nothing much to spam lately

Camera :Panasonic LX3



Aperture: F2.0
Exposure value:1/800 sec
ISO:400 <-----mistake

At least take some rumah buruk or something mar....
