Tried out my new camera today.

My wife and I got a new camera for Christmas, I took some pics of the 72. The camera has left alot to be desired, poor quality but I hope you guys enjoy.

Appreciate the pics. They're a little fuzzy, but still appreciate them. Looks like a nice truck.

Looks like you need to do some fiddlin with the shutter speed. Break out that owners manual.

She still wants me to sale it, had lotsa low ball offers, it's a double edged sword, she wants me to sale, but she knows what it's worth too.

Re: Tried out my new camera today.

First off, very nice truck. Now about the camera. I don't know if there is an electronic portion of the forums, but we need to get you some help. What kinda camera you got there Primer? Shoot us some info. If those pics were taken on the auto setting, you might want to take it back. Hopefully the selector got bumped and you were shooting in manual.

We gonna get you takin nice pics of that nice truck no matter what!!!! Must be a Ford camera!!!

Re: Tried out my new camera today.

I'm sure it's a setting in the camera. No new camaro will take pics like that unless a setting is wrong. There should be some kind of stabilizer in the thing.......or you need to go and smack the person that got it for you!!!! LOL

If I did that, it would be child abuse, I figured out why it sucks so bad, it was $ 9.99 at target, I think I'll deal with it for a bit.

Re: Tried out my new camera today.

you need to hold that thing still like a 1890s plate camera, it takes it awhile to do its thing. The picture ain't done when you push the button.

Re: Tried out my new camera today.

The truck is nice I like the Orange/white. As for the beer goggle effect on the camera I agree that you may need to look through the owners manual or mess with the camera to see if you can adjust the settings.
