Hey, what Kind of camera did you use?

my digi cam took some crappy pics at Wishes last year... all except one (my avatar) I'm trying to figure out what cameras are good for that sort of thing.

me?

I have a Panasonic FZ3....3.4 MP with a 12x optical zoom.

I did not use a tripod, and it shows :lol:

IT takes good pictures or are you just good at taking pictures. I need to buy one for my upcoming trip. Do you know if this model will be replaced any time soon?

It is the camera.....trust me :D

sillyspook13 uses the same model, although her eye is much better than my own.

I am not sure if it will be replaced...FZ3 is a 3.4mp version, FZ20 is 6mp I think, and has a larger body. They annouced last month the FZ4 and FZ5, 4.0 and 5.0mp versions, with a few slight changes to make the camera a little easier to use (not that it is hard by any means).

Great Pics

Two questions about these great photos. What type of camera do you use and how did you take them (tripod, settings?) I would appreciate your answer as we are going in May and I want to take some night shots.
Thanks

and for the non-firework shots, I used a 3" tripod that was placed on a railing.

The firework shots were hand-held....I think about F4ish and 1/5sec...somewhere in that area.

I think it's coming out great. Yea, the mirror does look a little big in the photos. But the mirror is meant to be seen. If it was small, we wouldn't be able to see it well from Main Street, no? The Imagineers know what they're doing and I appreciate their hard work. :animwink: I can't wait to see the Castle again in person.

I don't think it looks bad.....and since it will only be up for 18 months.......it is not the end of the world.

It's not looking as bad as I thought it would. The big "mirror" is kind of growing on me.

With the grand decorations they put up for Disneyland's 50th, can you imagine what is going to be going on for WDW's 50th?
