These are mostly test shots with the Canon A710 IS, which is a small 7-megapixel point & shoot with full manual controls in addition to a 6x telephoto zoom lens and very effective image stabilization, superceded by the similar but more capable Canon A720 IS, reviewed here. The first few shots, at the bottom, were mainly taken indoors. ISO 800 is very grainy, but the anti-shake is very effective for low-light, slow-shutter photos. Will stick to lower ISOs most of the time. Later I found that image stabilization helps to get good low-light shots at iso200, in fact.
This is a sort of photoblog of random images.
