The source of the light is identical (GE Reveal 100w). I flipped on the the light corrector and this what happened. No Photoshopping, straight off the camera.
Whoa!
So with these cameras can you adjust the shutter speed?
The only other camera I've had was a crappy one that you could turn multiple shots on and off and thats it... Literally. So I don't know what features to look for and such.

Tripod + professional lighting.



point and shoot often means something small enough to keep in your pocket. Something for casual, everyday use. It's usually idiot proof with auto focus and features to make pictures look their best ... w/o user effort

pretty much point and shoot is, see what you want point your camera and shoot. no real need to play with the settings as it does it automatically for you.
