I just realized that my new canon sd630 doesn’t allow me to control the shutter speed and aperture.
Even though the sXX series was clunky and unsleek, they allowed me to be a professional without being a professional. A poseur perhaps. But now, I am stuck with a canon elph camera that I can now sneak into shows. Not that it matters since everyone has a camera on their cellphone anyway.
virtually none of the ultracompax have manual aperture/speed control. totally point -> click -> photoshop. which sux, but there’s not much you can expect from the tiny 1/4″ sensors in them. i’m happy if one in 5 shots turns out decent.
i miss my dead super tiny sony spy camera. total chick bait, better than a puppy — cute, and it makes them the center of attention. i’m probably going to pick up a Sony T10 — 3.5 x 2.2 x 0.8 inches — in black. not as small, but a little more functionality.
