EasyShare Dump

"The best camera to use is the one you have with you." Or so the saying goes. While I have been dipping into film lately I still carry around my trusty digital Kodak EasyShare C813 for on the go shots.

It's pretty rare to see people carrying around a point and shoot these days. Cameras are still ubiquitous though, tucked into everyone's pocket in the form of their smartphone. My phone, however, doesn't have its camera anymore, thanks to a shattered lens.

So when I can't bring my film or DSLR cameras, I carry my little Kodak instead. I think it takes better photos than my phone anyways. But it does get a lot of weird looks!

These were taken at work the other day. I couldn't resist the clouds and reflections on the water. I wanted to get the best I could out of the little p&s so I snapped away from multiple angles with as many setting tweaks as it would allow.

Despite being a 15 year old digital camera, it's 8.2 megapixels perform quite well if I do say so myself. Don't be afraid to try any old cameras, even the old digital ones. You might like the results, or you might just like the attention when people notice that you aren't just holding up a phone!

Pretty nice photos, despite the camera age, I'd say.
As usual, the censor size is much more important than the megapixels. Anyway, I don't share online more than 1920 pixels by the longer side, 72 dpi on web. No point wasting more storage and bandwidth as going up in size and quality is not noticed.

Thanks, I'm pleasantly surprised by some older digital cameras, especially the Kodaks. I'm not sure what the sensor sizes are relative to newer DSLRs or mirrorless, but they churn out some decent quality for their age and ease of use.

I almost never post anything big to my WordPress blog, I reserve the big files for here. But I do see your point about bandwidth usage.

I had a similar Kodak but it's gone, long time ago, unfortunately.
I had a wonderful old Sony, great colors and crisp images, it got stolen.

By the way, I think some of the image servers we use here on HIVE compress the images when they are bigger is size. Not to mention all of them get their meta data (EXIF) removed "for security reasons".
