The result of my night photography experiment (just trying to get the hang of it). I took it at 22:00, an hour after sunset. Oh, and it's taken from about 15 km away.
A week later I tried it again, this time another part of Amsterdam and with fireworks (from SAIL Amsterdam). But because it was an hour later and that part was very poorly lit, it wasn't a big succes...

This little camera is a boon. Highly recommended, although I wish for moar zoom.

Yeah, I researched the p+s cameras a few weeks ago. Eventually bought the S90 as a present for someone, but first played around with it a couple of days to 'test' (=play) it. Twas pretty good.

Get the S95, that just came out. It does everything the same except now it has HD video.

too late lol. Eventually I'd like to own a very good and small point and shoot, so I allways have a decent camera with me. A big DSLR with ditto lenses are only for the occasions that I go somewhere solely for photography. This will take a couple years though, first have to come up with the funds
