Photos taken at the Botancial Garden at Central, Hong Kong, under overcast condition.

All were taken hand held (a couple had my elbows rested on railing). See how well the image stablizer worked. Four full size photos were also uploaded straight from the camera for comparison. Others have all been downsized to 800X600 pizels, 72ppi via Photoelement. Many have also gone thru one round of sharpening. Only one or two photos had their saturation level boosted up a bit.

All camera setting were on Auto (about half was on the idiot-proof setting (the red heart), with others on auto (the red window). There may be one or two on Macro. Can't remember exactly which is whcih since I found long zoom regular setting and long zoom marco setting give identical results).
