Questions about Kodak P880?
In a way, I bought this camera in dissapointment. Since I thought it looked like a fair professional camera, it doesn’t really seem to work like one. I’ve always wanted one of ‘em CSI kinds going snap snap and click click cameras, but my camera is sure slow with the shutter speed and having blurry quality. If anyone knows more about it, and can help me with settings, functions, etc. Please let me know. Fancy Nikons and Canons are unaffordable, the Kodak is the closest pro camera I’ll ever get to.
Second, another dissapointment, is that after I’ve purchished it, I found it only has two kind of lenses the company produces. Wide and Tele. I wanted a fish eye lenses, and they have in on Ebay, but I was wondering if it’s worth trusting. The brand are unheard of. : / Experiences, advices??????
P.S, I don’t know how to use the focus ring??? Someone please tell me what it does.
I am sorry that you are disappointed. The P880 is a very good camera for lots of things. But all cameras have some technical compromises. There are even differences in the expensive pro cameras.
The 880 has a fine lens that is set up for better than average wide angle use. You really don’t need the wide angle adapter except for super wide landscapes. It is an excellent portrait camera.
And it has excellent manual controls, especially with the zoom and focus rings.
I recommend that you learn as much as possible about your 880 and take advantage of its strengths. Your camera does have a Burst mode that will take several pics quickly in a row.
I can’t tell much about your blurry picture problems from your description. I suggest that you put the camera on full Automatic mode (including Autofocus/Single/Center), and take a few test pics in good light. Hold the camera with both hands, braced on your face. (Do not hold it away from you and look through the LCD. There is too much chance of camera shake.) You should get nice clear pics.
If you do not, take it back to the store (or to a friend with good photography knowledge), and have them make sure the camera is not defective.
Manual focus is difficult to master, especially with the electronic viewfinders on digicams. And it is almost impossible looking through the LCD. (The screens are just not very clear to see the correct focus.)
If the Automatic mode does yield clear pics, you may be using some Manual settings incorrectly. Take some time and read this web white paper:
http://www.aakatz.com/whitepaper/
It was written about some Sony cameras, but contains a great description about how to use Manual settings. Just ignore the Sony references.
Many Ebay lenses are lower quality, so you have to be careful. Look at some photography store websites to learn the better brand names, then stick to those brands on Ebay. Many of the photography stores have phone numbers where you can get advice.
Good Luck
P.S. The Focus Ring is one of the 2 rings on the lens barrel.
To use it, put the camera in Manual Focus mode. Then look through the viewfinder and turn the ring forward and back until the image is the clearest you can make it. Now take the pic and the image should come out with no bluriness.
Have Fun!!
