    Butterfly

    Canon S3. Original shot at 1/400 - f4. ISO 100, 66mm. I have been very satisfied with the S3 but taking a look at the new S10. Trying to not go the DSLR route if I can.

    Two Questions - Prints and Image Size for Posting

    I'm going to have a couple of prints made just to see what prints look like created with a digital camera vs film. The two prints I want processed are 2816x2112 JPG camera pixels at 3.6Mb each. I don't want them blown up at all but would like to get 11x14's made. I believe this is possible...

    New here

    Just now starting to 'play' with the camera. Most the prior frames (13,000) were taken while documenting. Haven't been into photography for many years - had a darkroom and nice film gear that I was fortunate to acquire in Hong Kong way back in the '70's. I'm finding digital to be a different...

    Battery Question

    I have a bunch of 2650 NiMH rechargeable batteries that I use in my GPS and other battery powered devices. Can these be used in the EXP AA battery pack? I would like to use them as a backup for the rechargeable pack that came with the EXP. Thanks in Advance - CGP

    Conversion Question

    When using NASA World Wind they use co-ordinates like: 33.38874 104.51818 How do I convert to the co-ordinates my GPS uses? Is it just as simple as placing decimal points like? 33.38.874 104.51.818 Thanks in Advance

    Question for Canon PS S3 Owners

    I bought one of these in November and have been happy with it so far. Still have a lot to learn. I'm involved in a project where I need to take about 18,000 photos - I've done about 2,000 so far and the S3 sure beats my 4 year old Olympus. I've been looking at several 3x tele extenders and...

    Just got a New Camera - Could Use Some Advise

    Picked up a Canon S3 yesterday to replace my 4 year old 1.3mp camera. Seems to have all that I require. It came with a 16 and 512 SD card but I know I'll need another card (at least) but I'm not sure which one. Priced them at Sam's and Wal-Mart and the price for 1gb cards was from $30 to $50...

    Unreal Interference

    In a park I ran across the strangest interference ever for me. In parts I could run at manual sensitivity of 20 and then I would hit ground that the chatter was so intense that I could hardly pick out the sound of a clad quarter on the surface. No help from noise cancel. Tried turning the...

    Has Anyone Used One of These?

    Creative Labs CB2530 Bluetooth Digital Wireless Headphones I would really like to eliminate the wire from my headphones to the EXP II. Driver Unit: 40mm diaphragm Frequency Response: 20Hz~20kHz I would have to change the plug but that should be easy enough. Any thoughts? Thanks, Cliff - - -

    Would Like Some Tips

    I have a 4x7 eXcel and a WOT to be delivered to me this coming week. The only coils I have used on my EXP II is the stock and a 5 inch. Anything I should be aware of when using the new coils? Thanks, Cliff - - -

    Maybe I've been doing this Wrong???

    If I go into the 'Advanced' mode and set recovery, sounds, etc, etc and the other options that are not available under the 'Quick menus then go back into 'Quick' do the setting I made when in 'Advanced' still hold? I know the discrimination pattern still is the same but not sure about all the...

    Foam Grip has Split on my EXP II

    Is this a normal thing after 6-7 months? Are replacements available or is there a better solution? I guess it's no big deal as I could just run tape around it but I'd rather replace if possible. TIA - - - -

    Possible Problem with a New EXP II

    I have an EXP II that I bought about 1 month ago. I have been using the stock Koss headphones. The lowest I could hear my threshold was 9 where I have read many posts where folks set it at 7. I'm dead at 8. So I bought a pair of new Sun Ray headphones thinking that might solve the problem. Nope...

    Questions for WOT Users

    I considering buying a WOT coil for my EXP II and would appreciate some info on them. They offer a short cable version and a long cable version. I have an X-1 and I would guess that I should order the short cable version. Is that correct? If the depth indicator is about 12 inches when totally...

    Not Much but it's a Start

    These are my first silver finds with my EXP II. Have found lots of clad and LOTS of tabs of all sizes and shapes. Plus I'm a can slaw diggin' fool. The little ring says 'BABY' and the cross is quite heavy. Yeah, I know, scratched the Rosie - rats! Cliff - - -
