Re: Re: OT: COMP: Digital Software?

Hi Folks,

I too use a Nikon CoolPix 995. It has so many features that others can't match. One thing I would like to recommend for working with the images on your computer is the program PAINT SHOP PRO from Jasc. This program has many of the features found in programs like Photo Shop but the price is much more reasonable. You can even download several effects filters from various sites on the internet.

Yeah Neil! I never had a camera I choose before my Nikon Coolpix 995. Mine
always were someone else's throw away or from a rummage sale. So I have
really enjoyed this one. I take tons of pictures just for the fun of it.
And at this time of year I play on the computer with the pictures. It is
fun and you learn every time you play with the pictures.

The Nikon CoolPix 5000 my daughters gave me is so far over my head it
makes me
dizzy. I have to re-read the pertinant sections of the book every time I
go
to use it. The software that came with it was just that much more stuff
to
put on the computer.

To edit, I've found it easier to use the Microsoft Photo Editor that came
with
MS Office for most of what I do. A few things are easier done on Corel
Graphics. If I need to crop it is far easier on the Corel program, for
example.

The software bundled with the camera does all sorts of things I haven't
gotten
around to trying and for which I haven't figured out why I need. I'm
still
working on the basics of just getting the camera to do what I want.

I was so used to an SLR that the camera was second nature and I didn't
have to
think about how--I just did. The design of the CoolPix still just feels
foreign and is hard work. I'm sure as I continue my recovery things will
get
easier and -- I hope! -- with a better iris year coming up there will be
plenty of subject matter on which to practice.
