Mine is was the Cannon Powershot A560. The problem was mainly no image stabilization. And the 3-month lifetime.

The image stabilization is great! It still has its limits and the camera will tell you to avoid shaking. With the proper technique (supporting the camera properly) you can get great images. The photos in that thread are not doctored but simply raw straight from the camera without additional lenses.

Linus, you must mean the tan flowers growing out of the wall!

Bill,

Thanx, liked your shots as well, the PF is in our back yard, it covers a 50' x 8' section of fence with hundreds of blooms daily, during the growing season. I just cut it back yesterday as we're experiencing our second freeze and it trashes the pool throughout the winter if not removed.

Kent,

I tried to get you a free camera but Michael is coming up with a pretty lame excuse Those shrooms were growing out of a deck
