I have uploaded a few photos that I took recently with my new Fuji Finepix
camera. You can see them he-

I am not certain of the willow tit and would appreciate your opinion,
please.


would not know the difference.

I have a Fuji Finepix myself but would like to say that these photos are
not very sharp and I hope you deliberately blurred the background. I say
this because I know how much it's important for birders to get a really
nice photo.
Having said that they are much better than I take and I enjoyed seeing
them on the group.
Tbh, my camera is better than my skills at photography..

I find the main problem with both the fugi's that I have is that at low
light levels (typical of this time of the year)
on auto they come out very gloomy.
I am having a similar problem with my new Medion movie taker -
gloomsville - roll on summer !

In both cases, have you tried playing with the ISO settings? I was having
trouble with light levels in both the Theatre, where I am 'the official
photographer' and the Garden at this time of the year. I then hooked the
manual out and played about with ISO.

I also have a Fuji 6 megs and a 10 megs professional camera. More knobs and
screens than I know how to handle ;-)
