[QUOTE="PEL, post: 63190, member: 3872"] Also, to do with the Nikon L310 that I got - I'm starting to get frustrated with it. I don't know if it's because I'm using it wrong, if I'm just used to the better quality DSLR's / mirrored cameras or if there's something wrong with the camera. It's just annoying. I'm trying to be grateful for my gift but if it doesn't work... I might have to replace it :( Let me try to show you: 1. Direct sunlight or something makes streaks instead of the typical sunspots from lens flare: [ATTACH=CONFIG]12677._xfImport[/ATTACH] 2. The settings get to me. Either the pictures get all streaky, grainy and gross or they can turn out alright (like the ones I'll post in my gallery), but only if you are absolutely still - the focus takes forever to work and it's not really great for "snap-shots" on the move. 3. Also, I know there isn't a filter or anything, but it makes objects - or things like flowers have a "shine" when in real life there isn't. 4. If you use the wrong setting - like I used a "moving object" setting accidentally for a landscape of a river - it turns out to be utter crap, and the quality is like cellphone camera quality. This doesn't really make sense to me, as it also makes things blurry and grainy when shouldn't it be making things clearer, such as the moving water?
