Digital Camera Problems

[desertsheep]

Does any one know if you can edit digital photo's while they are still in the camera. Or do you know if there is a program to edit photo's. I have about two weeks of Mexico photo's that look like crap. I have used this camera before and the photo's have came out perfect. They look fuzzy or blurred. Any help would be great.

 

Thanks,

Hey, man, I feel for you. Been there done that....

 

If the raw material is pretty fuzzy I have not seen a good program to make it look like it should have. Maybe NCIS or CSI people could but that is Television.

 

My pics from my hunt his year turned out like crap too. Part of my problem was the camera was in MACRO for closeups, and once I found that out, my hunting was over.

 

The mini screens on the cameras are nice but are so small that the detail is not visible. I would make a few suggestions to help prevent some of the fuzzy problems.

 

1. Check the Macro setting on your camera

2. Do not use digital Zoom unless you have the cameara mounted on a tripod. Optical zoom is much more manageble freehand.

3. Take your time and if any doubt exists in the quality of the pictures, take extra of the same shot, using different exposures.

4. Don't take a camera out in the field unless you are pretty familiar with the variable settings. Do overs are not much easier with a camera than with a gun.

Another problem that can cause fuzzyness is a full memory card/camera. As the memory card or internal memory of the camera fills up it has to reduce the quality of the image to fit it into the limited amount of memory that is left. So even if you have it set on the highest quality setting it may not be able to take photos at that setting.

With some memory cards, deleting the image off of the card will not be enough to ensure that this doesn't happen. A deleted image can still take up a small amount of memory(this doesn't make much sense but I have heard it from a few people at camera shops) You have to format the memory card to maximize the space on the card. This will clear everytning that is on the card so make sure that any photos that you want are saved on your computer or a CD or something.

 

Another thing that can happen pretty easily while hunting is getting a dirty lens. My brother and I couldn't understand why some Gila Monster photos we took were so blurry until we realized that we could barely even see the lens it had so much gunk on it.

It could just be the view finder too. If it is the view finder your picture's might be fine. You could have gotten some condensation in your camera where the viewfinder is located. You won't be able to fix them in the camera so if i were you i would just down load them and see what you have.

 

Good luck!
