 BG>  Hi BjoRn

HI.


 BG>  It's a very nice camera.  Looking at it online I made that judgment.

It is.

 BG>  Remember it's the person holding the camera that makes nice pictures,
 BG>  not the camera.  But if the camera works better, maybe the person
 BG>  holding the camera can spend more time on what is going to be in the
 BG>  pictures and less on how the mechanicals work eh!  

Sure.

 BG>  Generally a separate setting for landscape sets the camera focus to
 BG>  infinity and the exposure meter to measure the light across the entire
 BG>  view.  A setting for portrait will usually set the camera to focus
 BG>  closer and set the exposure for spot metering.  That among other
 BG>  things.

OK, but when I hardly see any difference from that and a pic taken in for
example
P mode. What's the use of having it?

 BG>  I don't have the camera you do, but on my camera in a manual setting, I
 BG>  can cancel the flash and other magical operations, while I still use
 BG>  the P program mode for setting exposure, white balance and focus.  None
 BG> of
 BG>  those choices are available in the full automatic mode.  There you take
 BG>  what the camera wants to use.

After further studying of the manual, you are right.

What I even have discovred is that taking pics in bl/w and sepia aso doesn't
exist any more but I guess that's what Photoshop is for.

 BG>  We can't make the same o you use.  :-)

You can't even prounounce it.  :-)
I can even do ± and „. Try to prounounce that.
And if you didn't know, Bj”rn means Bear (what a name to have, eh)
