Here's some comparison for the T-100 macro function I try to examine
No Zooming occured here.

With macro for extreme close-up




With macro for close-up




Without macro(off)

Those pictures isn't really a true representation of the macro functions... because it makes as if the mode used in your second picture is no use... when actually, it just needs to be further away

For extreme close-ups, you need to get really near in order for it to focus (Zooming is disabled in this mode)
For normal macro, maybe a few cm away from the lens
And for macro off, it seems to have focused on the background anyway

Ya, that's what I want to say

Extreme close-up is good when you caputuring a very detail object

While normal macro is for a standard distance

For marco off is to make the background become a primary focus instead the object more nearer to camera become blur and categorized as secondary focus.

hmmm..i just got this camera for my gf at sunway. RM1590 with 1G memory pro duo and leather case. The case is very nice compares to the usual black color case they gave u.
Initially my gf wanted the red color, some how is not in stock. so Black color then.
I initially wanted her to get the ixus850is as i seen before the picture taken very nice. But hmm...sony design take her away. well i guess is as long she is happy with it rite?

i've try to take some picture with the camera, however, the noise appear on the picture it seems a lot. Even with flash, the picture still have noticable noise appear. Something weird with the flash, the picture taken with flash looks only middle part are where lights more appear, everything at the side seems no flash effect at all. Picture taken taken for me looks very fake. Object taken dosent really seems click if u know what i mean.

Interface wise is very nice, but i will said is not very user friendly. It will take times to find where is all the function are at. Different mode give u different kind of option.

Weight of the camear wise, i think is a little heavy.
Camera start up is slow.

Well, all this opinion anyway is from me who is noob in photography. Mebbe i still doono how to do all the settings, heck, i was aspecting point n shoot camera u know? I doono, mebbe i'm still new to sony camera function.

i do own casio z750. well, i know casio rite. i know. everyone saying the same thing. i do not have alot experience of camera only a few only. but for me. For me only, casio z750 is the still the best for me only best point n shoot camera.

So all this is all my opinion only..dont flame me. i also want to learn how to use this camera from here.

the macro pictures are trying to compare between blur, blurrer and blurrest?

the concept is not like that. I'm pretty much can said that whenever the macro is on for extreme closeup, the object that near ur lens at 2-5cms become very very clear while the background become blurry...

While macro off is mostly for scenic photo, same like you are taking a KL tower picture from roadside, Off the macro and there you go, a clear picture.

Actually there's also a macro on function for close-up catching where I dun quite know how to use this function as the picture produced is both blur either the object I've focused or the background.

seem not very sharp worh

hmmm..those who own this camera, does u guys face the noise appearing on the images.?

Nope, I resize all the picture, So it looks bumpy a bit... The actualy size of this picture is sharp.

Yes, During viewing the picture in camera, clicking the button beside the power button. A bit of noise come out from the camera, is it normal?

i meant image noise.
i look at the edge of object in the image.
the edge of the object looks very noisy. and the edge looks weird. more like a cut and paste picture into a picture.
Am i using it wrongly or wut?
geess...the user interface really take time to access and make changes lar.

Anyone experienced warranty issue with this camera? I was going to get it, price dropped to 1500 or less, then I got some advice from a friend, those selling for less than 1599, are most likely non original sets AND fake memory cards (can be used but may encounter data corruption on the cards).

Those non original sets would have problems claiming warranty if needed. Anyone can confirm this?

just buy from authorized shop with good reputation. no matter how cheap it is, it is still original.

Thats the problem, authorized shops with good reputation don't sell cheap

Anyway I'm still contemplating this camera with Ixus 950IS or Lumix FX100. Anyone wanna talk me into Sony T100 instead of the other 2??

by the way, mine was 3 years warranty.... (added another RM100 for extra 2 years warranty from Fotokem)

Also you should have consider ixus 850is instead of 950, as between Sony, Canon and Pana, that was on your choice good luck.

1. the new selling price for t100 is rm1599(add rm99 to get 1gb genuine mspd + genuine leather case)

2.actually is possible for u to get it around rm1500 for above all 3 item

3.without this sticker,no 1 can claim that they are selling genuine mspd


4.for non original set....normally the warranty will cover by themself only(the shop u purchase it)......

Thanks for all the info William! I'm still considering the T100 vs Ixus 850/950IS vs Lumix FX100. Currently Lumix tops the other

look like f31fd is a bit better if compare to this, am i rite?

aiks??
why the picture you took so sharp and nice??

the picture i took got alots of noise...

All T-100 owner.
Izzit the battery need take a long time to charge up?

btw, Which shop are cheaper?Fotokem or Boeing?

Finally manage to get a acceptable moon shoot

Zoom in and chop off


Exif


As my T100 only have 5x Zoom.... so have to chop the picture to see the moon clearly although is not as good as the SLR, but sure better than my camera phone haha
