One of the great features about the [tag]Sony DSC H2[/tag] is the menu option to shoot in sepia or in black and white. It actually makes a huge difference shooting in that option, and shooting in colour and processing it later with photoshop. In the latter mode I ended up losing out on the detailing. But, here on a manual mode – with a sepia/b&W setting – you can fiddle around with aperture, white balance and detail – to get what you want. Having said that – this has turned out slightly redder than i would have wanted – but waht the hell, one clicks and learns! Am eyeing a Digtal SLR now. But, first we have to get some new orders:)
A digital SLR is good idea, I think you have reached crossed the progression a point and shoot can give you.
Hey when did you chuck the Minolta? Do you wanna sell it?
