I got a copy of Photoshop CS3 and Paintshop pro (downloaded versions....)

to be honest they are good but if you are just into editing the odd picture then you dont need to spend the money on them, best getting the free versions (or cheap ones for about £50) and they should cover most things. Look into either Photoshop or Paint Shop and see which one does a cheap version, I cant remember which one does...

I edited that using windows picture manager. I wandered if I'd get more detail use a profesional photo editor

the lens usually bings out the detail, all you can so is sharpen (unsharp mask in photoshop) on a piece of software and you can over do it easily too...

what format was the original picture in mate? if its shot in RAW format we might be able to bring out more detail, if its JPEG you probably cant...

hi all, i have a CANON IXUS 40 which i take fishing with me for its compact size. takes a spot on picture etc but my problem lies in the batteries. even after charging over night i only seem to be able to get a few photos out of it before the battery icon starts flashing . this happens with all 3 batteries i have. does anyone else have this problem and or know of a solution/reason??

sounds like it may be worth changing the batteries, how old is the camera? are the batteries the ones that came with it?

I used to have this camera (the ixus40) and never had any problems with the battery life.

How we doing lads - never been too bothered by photography but after my camera letting me down on the trophy shots of my new p.b. i feel the time has finally come to invest in a decent camera.

Ideally don't want to spend more than £100, if i can get away with spending less its a bonus, if i need to spend abit more to get the right camera then so be it!!

The camera will mainly be used for fish photos and possibly a few wildlife shots but doesn't have to be amazing just something that will give me some nice clear, focused shots of my catches - also needs to be relatively easy to use for when you get a noddy or dog walker on the other side of the camera!!

Always travel light so it needs to be small and compact - don't want one with a big lense you have to screw on or anything?

Any suggestions?

Cheers
