Default good quality picture of a salamandra.

because i am well known for posting things of great interest, i will have to ask what digital cameras do you use to get atleast half descent pictures? is it just a matter of spending over like £500 on one?



as you can see below the camera makes the salamandra look like an alien smiling at the destruction he/she has left in the bathroom.
or it looks similar to wolverine with glowing eyes that are the same colour as his facial hair and he is bold and afro american, and nipples and bellybutton glow too like his eyes.
or it looks like and evil skeletor pepperami from the advert of the food product pepperami (but not from the advert because this is a salamandra and there is no such thing as an evil skeletor pepperami, well atleast not yet).

what alot of people don't use is the macro setting on their camera (look for a tulip flower symbol) which will focus the lens on something that is up close so the picture wont be blurred a steady hand also helps!

yeah thats what ive got, the digi cam and a few mobile phones.
digi cams new, the phones are like 700 days old, may actually be 900+days old, they can barely get a flash-on theyre so old.

hate the way my camera's all exploit the animals looking rubbish.

i have just tried pressing different buttons on the camera.

this is the first photo it took of a newt after pressing no buttons.



this is the second picture after pressing another button.




this is a thrid picture after pressing a button many times.




the cameras probably fine, just need to learn how to use it. look at the size of that pepple the lizards is on, it is like a foot+ long, like the size of one of the snappers carapace. that is a big pebble.
