My digital camera

[HottyToddyChick]

And it's issues. (And to not hijack Zirc's thread!)

I've got nothing going on today. Like most days. So why not pull it out and see if we can't make it work.

For whatever reason it won't charge. It's a Kodak. Got it for Christmas several years back, sits on the charger/printer combo thing. Let me go pull out all the goodies.

It's a Kodak EasyShare Z740

When I sit it on the charger, the screen pops up and tells me I can print. I can scroll through the pictures that way. It won't let me switch the camera from off into camera or album mode though, on or off the charger.

Well, that sucks. :unsure: Have you used it a lot?

 

[HottyToddyChick]

Apparently not since my ex turned 21 (22?), and he's 24(?) now?

And now to let it charge so tomorrow I can go take pictures So excited! Hopefully the wind won't knock all the pretty leaves off

Does this mean that Tim is a god? :unsure:

 

[HottyToddyChick]

I'd like to say yes, but it just turned on like it was supposed to.

You know those situations where you can't do something and you ask for help and while you're waiting you try just once more and it works? Yeah...

 

[HottyToddyChick]

So teach me something that I can use when I take fall pictures tomorrow.

When you are walking around and see a scene you like take your thumbs and nose picker fingers and make a rectangle. Then look through the rectangle as you're walking and imagine what you see as a picture. Move the rectangle closer or further away from your eyeballs. See something you like power on the camera, set the focal length and shoot it. Considering the bloody thing hasn't been out of the box for a few years you might wanna set it on automatic. That way if you screw up a shot you can blame it on the camera.

I've never known crap about cameras anyhow. I always use auto or the presets.

Hey... I think we have the same chairs. Maybe not the same exact chair but the material sure looks like it's a spittin' image to our twin rocker recliners.

Forget about the presets, just leave it on auto. All the presets do in a P & S basically is change the color temperature.

It's the same I have now, I've just covered it.

We bought ours pre-covered.

 

[HottyToddyChick]

I didn't like the pattern and they were used. The couch is blue and the chair is yellow with blue and white stripes. I need to redo them again, but it was such a HUGE pain in the butt project that I can't bring myself to even think about it seriously.
