Bite Work - Pics

**BackInBlack** · 10-09-2006, 10:11 AM

I never really get pics during bite work cause my camera doesnt do great action shots, but Scott tried to take some on Saturday...this is what we came out with. Any camera suggestions would be great!!! We need a new one anyway.

Great shots! Wish they were closer up but looks like he is getting right in there with it.

Not sure what you are looking for in a camera but I got one that takes really great pics but it is not as convenient in size as the one my granddaughter broke. I got the Fujifilm FinePix S5200 and I love it though I do miss be able to drop one into my pocket, this one I just have to carry around my neck. I do love the zoom on it though and I guess all the good qualities outweigh the convenient sizing. Price was around $235 best I can remember after I searched it out online, sells for much higher in some places.

Here is a site that tells about it. http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/S5200/S52A.HTM

Does it take good action shots though? Thats kind of my big thing in my next camera. We had 2 sonys...and neither of them took good pictures in motion. They take great still photos, but thats about it.

Well I am not that good myself with the camera, but the link I provided may tell you more, from what I read it has a high speed setting, etc. Here is another link:

It has a lot of different things you can do with it, by changing the settings. I still have a lot to learn with it, which I haven't yet. So I haven't learned to take action shots, doesn't mean it doesn't do great actions shots, means I am inadaquate LOL, so I really don't know what to tell you about it. Look over both reviews and maybe you can find something on it.

The Fujifilm FinePix S5200 can also record still images in Continuous mode, at up to about two frames per second, according to our tests. Top 3-frame mode saves the first three images, and Final 3-frame saves the last three images in the buffer. Long-period Continuous Shooting mode can handle up to 40 frames before the buffer is filled, but it takes a little longer between shots, at a speed of 1.25 frames per second.

Not trying to talk you into it, you do the research and maybe find out more than I can tell you, I just know I like it a lot other than the convenience of sizing and it is not huge by any means, just won't fit into my pocket. :-)

nice pics Amanda! You can see Rommel like it.

I have a fuji finepix 5500 and I think this camera have it all, I think he is almost the same as Dakari's one, but I think there is no much different between those two.

I think its a nice camera, worth his price. We wants to go for the canon first, but we found out this one was very compleet.

Great pics!!!! Look at Rommel at work, very cool! My DH got me a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20 last Christmas and I LOVE it!! The pics it takes are amazing, both still and motion. It has many settings for light and shutter speeds, depending on what it needed.

I have the Fuji Finepix 2650. I think it's an older model. I love the zoom on it, but unless I'm doing something wrong, action shots come out a blur and you can't take picture after picture. There is to long of a time space between taking the next picture.
