Title: Sample shots from the Sharp CF Camera Card
Post by: TheFly on May 17, 2004, 03:51:00 pm

Can anyone with the Sharp CF camera card post some sample shots taken with the camera?

I found the post on here with the card for cheap and I\'m thinking about it.

It\'s at least got to be better than the snaps I take with my camera phone.  Not worth $170, but is it worth $25?

I just took some shots with the CF card yesterday.. I can post them here when I go home tonight.  

Personally, I don\'t think the card is worth $25.

ORG, you don\'t? I was thinking in buying one... Is it THAT bad?  Post the pics if you can, please.


Is there any other card which works with the Z?

The camera isn\'t good but it\'s not BAD.

Its\'s really useless in too-bright lighting, as well as too-dim.

Outdoors midafternoon, or indoors with bright illumination and it\'s
reasonably okay.

these were taken outdoors in moderate lighting conditions, and are (mostly) low res
You can use higher resolution too, but I prefer this.

The camera is, in my opinion not worth $100,  but it is worth $30.  I got mine bundled \'free\' with my C760.

I\'m a newbee & don\'t know much about Linux and don\'t read Japanese.

I just bought the Sharp CF camera; it came without drivers/software. I have not been able to find drivers/software that will make it work in my also brand new 860. Can anyone help?

You also have to remember what you are viewing the photos on. Photos on my 6k are betterr than the 860 but not half as good as my desktop.

I keep hearing the 6000\'s screen is better than the 860 but no-one ever seems to want to back that up with facts, how is the VGA CG Silicon screen different? They seem to use the same component.  I\'d like someone to prove it, I know the 6000 screen is better for use in direct sunlight.

I\'m disappointed in those pics, I was going to get a camera, I don\'t think I will bother now.  They seem a bit blurry, I thought the camera had a focus wheel.
