Hi there - I'm Allan
Hi Folks
Yet another Newbie - My names Allan and I'm from Carlisle in Cumbria on the border of Scotland and England. I'm lucky to have the Lake District on my doorstep, and my work takes me around the county alot, so the camera comes with me. I only got back into photography at the start of last year but am really enjoying it. I use a fuji S602Zoom which I'm really happy with (other than it eats batteries). I'm looking forward to getting some comments on some of my photos and taking part in some of the banter. Thanks Allan (Keltic Ice Man) |

welcome Allan ,
i had the S7000, which sort of replaced the 602, the S7000 also ate batteries like no ones business, the best way is to buy high capacity AA rechargables ( 2300mah ) and always have a spare set with you, also take a set of standerd AA's for emergencies, the 602 takes great pix, so lets see some ( if you want to that is , lol) MyPix |

Welcome, Allan!
Enjoy it here -- it's a lot of fun! I'm from Montreal, Canada - but live in Sunderland in NE England.I have a Fuji S7000 -- and love it. Great camera. I recently got a Nikon D50, but the Fuji still comes with me all the time! Looking forward to seeing some of your photos Anna

Hi Guys
Thanks for a really warm welcome. Seems real friendly around here, and it's so great to be able to talk about photography with so many people around the globe. It's also great to hear that some of you have fuji cameras. I'm hoping to try my hand at posting a couple of my pics in the next few days, and I think bigger capacity rechargeable batteries is definately something I should try as the answer to the battery eating problem. On batteries Does anyone know any good ways of storing rechargeable batteries after they have been charged or for how long a rechargeable holds its charge if it is not put in the camera. Thanks Allan (Keltic Ice Man) |
