More from the S90
December 30th, 2009
Phoenix Kelley was back in town for the holidays, so we did a long lunch and a quick shoot together. I took the Nikon and all my normal kit, but had to pull out the new Canon S90 for a few frames too. This is one of them. The camera was on Program Mode and set the exposure perfectly automatically. The Nikon wouldn’t do that, I had to tweak what the meter wanted to do to get a good exposure. The settings for this shot were ISO 400, 1/40, f/2.2 with the zoom lens at the widest setting. I did crop the photo a bit for composition, but I didn’t try to correct the obvious barrel distortion that the lens has when it is set this wide. But it would be an easy fix in PhotoShop, so I’m not terribly worried about it.
I’m still impressed. With the camera, that is. Phoenix has impressed me since the first time I met her and I’ve really enjoyed watching her grow up into a very beautiful woman, a talented creative artist, and a fine figure model. I wish she hadn’t moved so far away, but we aren’t going to let that stop us from working together more in the future.
I’m about to take off for rural Vermont again to celebrate the New Decade. Let’s hope it is a much better decade than the one we are ending. But that means dial-up only web access for several days…cell phones don’t even work well where we will be staying…so I may post some more while I’m away, if I can manage to get on line to do it. Or you may have to wait until the new decade is under way to hear from me again…only time will tell. And it also means you may have to put up with more photos of my favorite, most photogenic farm.

I got socks for Christmas.
I don't want to hear about your new camera anymore.
