Mayb u can try manual mode?
Can adjust everything

It's Aperture priority so you can only adjust the Aperture. Use Shutter priority mode for that. Or Manual to adjust both.

I just happened to have one pic in Shutter priority mode shot at my kampung.

P mode also can adjust both shutter speed and aperture but ISO and DR must not be in
auto

Nice photo...

Added on November 21, 2012, 1:11 amYou see guys. In Fuji X10 website, there is a sample image on sunflower which is under Aperture Priority Auto mode. Stated there the shutter speed is 1/200. How do I gonna check my shutter speed statistic since i have no control over it. Display

2nd. How to play with focal length, AEL/AFL button ?

3rd. How to take a picture of ceiling fan (moving object) under shutter priority mode ?

May sound stupid but need to learn.

Thank you in advance

i think u should learn the basic exposure theory first.. playing with manual camera function without knowing the theory is a little hard

Oh the P* thingy right. Flick left or right it adjust both.

Since it's shot in A mode, the camera decides whatever shutter speed it thinks right.

Focal length? Those things written on top of the lens. 28, 35, 50 etc. I never played with AEL/AFL but it locks the exposure/focus.

You can play with this. Set low shutter speed maybe 1/15 and the fan will appear blur. With high shutter speed maybe 1/500 it will appear still.

just my 2cents

1. IMHO..when u on a apeture mode, u can adjust the aperture and the shutter is automaticly set by the camera. of course u can review the shutter speed and iso after the picture taken. vice-versa if u using a shutter mode, the apeture is automaticly set.if u wanted to adjust both u can use the manual mode

2.u can see the focal length on top of the lens - it is 28, 35, 50, 85, 112 (u can double the range using intelligent digital zoom -sweet-). the AEL/AFl button is the exposure lock button (AEL) and focus lock (AFL) button. umm u can change the function in the setup menu - whether for AEL/AFL/AEL&AFL

3. use shutter mode(S) scroll the dial left or right. lower number slow shutter..high number fast shutter. if u want the fan's blade to stop use fast shutter..if u want it to umm "blur" use slow shutter. *fast shutter make u picture dark..compesate it with flash and ISO.

then again u could learn all the basic via internet about apeture/shutter speed/ISO/field of depth/focal length/rule of third/flash mode/flash curtainning/panning/ bla bla bla

Added on November 27, 2012, 8:14 amJust bought a USED Nikon D90 + 50mm f/1.4 + Nissin flash + Phottix battery grip + addidtional battery + winer bagpack and there is no turning back. It only cost me only $1900.....I am looking for camera that can give me a very nice bokeh effect and oh boy....it is so simple when you have the right gear. Even a dumb fool like me is so hand on with it's basic function. Fuji X10 will only be my 2nd P&S camera for casual shooting now....My point is if I have been exposed to more reading and research earlier, I would not spend $1500~$2000 for Fuji X10 at all....plus there is no option to upgrade. There is no resale value too.

My point is even a used respectable DSLR camera worth the every penny spent. Fuji camera is just overly priced !!!

I dont mean to offence anyone though it remain as individual opinion and you can choose to ignore beginner like me. Anyway, thank you for the advices and suggestions. I appreciate them !!

long shutter trial

Nice. Never tried to take such shot.

Glad you found the right camera. But for me, i avoid buying into a camera system, DSLR or CSC because i'm afraid i will become a mad gearhead and i don't have that much money anyway.

NON TAKEN
yup agreed that u should hv studied the basic b4 jump to anything..my previous system was canon 500d with its 18-55 kit lens and canon flashgun,battery pack, optech neck strap, sigma 18-200mm, raynox macro converter, a couple of ND, polarized filter, velbon tripod.. and end up with tammy 17-50 f2.8/ mad gearhead indeed LOL i've spend around 7k for all those stuff and manage to cover around 4k doing a part time wedding job. just sharring my experience though. that been said i would like to say that x10 is a great pro p&s considering all the functions, fast lens and the COLOR! just the thing i need now days - hence look at the picture taken by our bro's here

p/s: umm would it be possible to mount a raynox m/c on x10? cause the smallest diammeter it can fit is 52[as i remember]
thanx

spam one using x10 and my bored mind

How would it look if taken in landscape orientation ? Good for advertising

took already but didnt like how it looked since of cos less sky can fit...roughly 2/3 less.

I think it's possible. Not mine.
