Hi Cam, glad you like it - I use and old Canon 300D (Full spectrum modified) that I recently purchased from a friend (a good deal too), The down side is this model does not have live view for focusing and framing conveniently on a laptop. Today I received a Canon 90 degree magnifying finder to make this less of a problem (also obtained from a fellow IIS member from the classifieds here). This camera will keep me satisfied for another year or so whilst I am learning the ropes.
Hi Jo, I did play with the power stretch and did find it was improving the issue, but only because I like to learn by pushing buttons and flicking switches - great to know what it is for though, - Thanks!

Hi Bruce,
Once you get Photoshop, try these video tutorials from Doug Gorman, I found them to be very useful in learning the basics and advanced techniques
