I'm testing the new camera for jagged edges on straight-lined objects just to be sure...I don't see any, but I thought I would check. Thanks!

Looking good to me! Try a tall building sometime soon, too. That's one place I really see them.

Tall buildings...next time I go into Dallas I can do that. Around here, however...not much to choose from. It may be a few days, but I can see what I can come up with! :o)

Cat wiskers and suspension cables on bridges are chief suspects. If you can get a shot of a black cat with white nose wiskers, that is jangly city

Cats we have...suspension bridges I'm fresh out of! :o) I'll see if I can trap a neighbor's cat and try it out. Thanks for the warning!

The image looks pretty clean to me. It would help us better if we were to see a 100% crop of a portion of the image. I agree that whiskers are purrfect for identifying jaggies.

Power/telephone lines are good for testing as well.

Answer: Not so much jaggies, but there is an unnatural white and black haloing around the grey painted top of the feeder.
It is most prominent on the top left roof piece, but is around almost all of them. When you get a black part like that it is usually caused by selecting an object and changing the brightness/contrast on it. The black shows up at the boder of the selection.

Without seeing a 100% crop, it's hard to say. Jaggys can be introduce in post processing and resizing. If you take a shot and 100% crop it, you should get a better idea.

How do I do the 100% crop you are talking about? I tried to upload the original file, but it's 8 meg and I don't really want to erase my portfolio for that birdhouse. I'm also confused about the black and white halo thingy...the shot is straight from the camera with no adjustments yet, so I wonder if that's a camera flaw (AAAAKKKKK!!!). Please advise...sorry to be a pain in the rump! :o)

You can use the marquee selection tool with a fixed size of 640 x 480 pixels and then make a selectin around an area of your photo that might show jaggies the most. An area such as an edge that is at an angle is good. Than crop your selection so you are left with only the 640 x 480 pixel image. Save that as a seperate filename and upload that file for viewing.

| I think by 100% crop they simply mean a cropped part of the image without any resizing done. Save in the highest quality setting you can so that the pixels from the cropped image are as close as possible to the ones that came from the camera. |

The close crop looks wonderful! You are gonna be loving life, I guess, Laurie! I went out for a couple hours today with my 6440 Kodak (much less than Laurie's new baby), but was SO pleased with what I got it. Kodak is getting better at this.

It's so much fun! I tried taking some bird pictures this evening, along with fiddling around with the manual settings, but to no avail...the birds are pretty quick and I am slow at figuring this thing out! But I'll get it soon enough... :o) LOL
