New camera arrived today...

Got a new Sony DSC-WX150 in the mail today to replace my "old" Panasonix Lumix DMC-ZS3. This one has 18.2 MP and a 10x optical zoom, plus 1080p HD video.

This pic of the camera is actually quite a bit larger than the actual camera. The test shots below show more detail than the 10 MP from my old Panasonic.

Nice pics Tom do you use certain settings or just in "auto" mode? What kind of lighting? Thanks for any insight.

The 'Program' mode allows manual selection of white balance, exposure compensation, ISO, etc. I try to use natural light whenever possible...and a very steady hand!
