My first go....

Today was the first go at taking some action shots with my new samsung gx-1l. I took hundreds of pictures and only a few where hardly any good. Full credit to jimmy and stu as i didnt realise how hard it was to capture such a great shot like they do. The hall was abit dark at tivvy indoors near impossible towards the end. Have attached some of the good "ish" ones lol.

Look good mate - the one of bloomers at speed is nice. Indoors at Tiv the best place is in those spots of sun, you can get some really nice dramatic shots there.

Nice shots. Good colour too.

I think I bought the wrong camera!

Wow, those are very nice.

I agree, I have to take around 200 images to get about 30 good ones, that aren't blurred, badly composed e.t.c

Bit on the small size, but quality is impressive

Nicely done mate

I think its the same with everyoune realy. Thats why digi cameras are so good. I use to get through around 10 rolls of film when i had a 'normal' camera. but now with the digi's you can check the images as they're taken.

I take around 450-500 shots when I take my camera to meetings and probably get around 50 shots that I like, and only around 25 that are decent.
with the screen being so small though, I find that some shots look pretty good on the small screens but when you get it on the comp' it's blurred as hell .

What is the viewfinder on the nikon d70 like? in my fuji its just another tiny monitor inside the camera?! so it's crap to get things in focus manually because the deffenition isn't there at all. I prefer the 'real' viewfinder to be able to get things in focus properly.
