Thanks for your comments. Sadly, the criiter ended up as cat food, but there'll be more, I'm sure.

Beautiful scenery, great pics.

The lens I used most for aerial shots, albeit at around 1500 ft in a Piper Warrior with very scratched windows, was the SMCP-FA 28-200mm IF&AL. Sold it now though, don't go flying any more .

The crop of the first one is much better IMHO. The second one is not such a good subject, primarily because of the damage/decay to the right hand bloom.

There is more detail in the original of the second one in comparison to your 'played with' version.

To improve it, you might increase the saturation to make the pinks more pink.

TT, that one is massively over exposed.

Sometimes convenience wins over speed.

Beautiful colours but I would try a crop, square if necessary, that includes only the three main blooms and the buds above it.

That's probably not got much to do with the camera Mike.

A couple of Western Digital Passport drives, or similar, should be just about ideal. The 2.5" HDD is powered by the USB socket too, so no need to carry a PSU and cable around.

I use an Ansmann NiCd/NiMh charger for my Eneloops with no capacity issues, but I don't have your model camera.

The Ansmann unit charges each cell according to it's needs. Many 'timed' chargers charge in pairs, both at the same rate, which doesn't make much sense if you happened to put in one partially depleted, and one totally depleted battery.
