when in Vegas i'd like to have been able to get a clear photo of the strip..

then a faster shutter would have been better on this, as increasing the ISO seems to loose clarity?

But then this came out well... don't know how I did it. lol

Taking stuff like this isn't easy when you have to know what settng is best to get the best picture..

I've had a photo printed in the Nottm Evening Post.. of the BigWheel, taken with the Ixus 90IS camera. I've since cleaned th ephoto up using the Kodak printer software to sharpen it up etc.. and then had it printed to a canvas... LOOKS very professional IMO. Ppl ask where i bought the pic from lol.... this was with a Tripod

I used to have the Canon 500D with the 18-55mm, 70-300mm battery grip and larger flash.
Lovely camera and got some nice shots, but sold it all and bought my Nikon. I'd never go back and can't recommend the Nikon D90 highly enough.
Even though it's 12.3mp and much lower than the 500Ds 15.1mp it doesn't make hardly any difference - unless you plan on printing large sizes.
Higher up someone said about ISOs - generally, the higher the ISO the grainier the image will be.

I've had some good pix from the 90is, I'd just like to be able to get better effects from it.

I'd of liked more time at Slot Canyon to fiddle with settings, these came out ok.. photo editing would bring out more colour etc, but still not bad for a point and shoot.

^^
I can only go to F4.5
should that matter?
I've got a 16gd class 10 SDHC card today, on RAW+Jpeg it allows me 511 pictures.... or if i just go RAW I get just over 600.
Should I keep with both formats.. as it saves having to alter a load of RAW pix to jpeg.. after being at JepFest this sunday.
