Hi matthewchj, Seltzer and jdepould
Thanks for all the comments and notes about the effects of using different options.
I was using the in build flash. Think the format was large JPEG (got 3 to 4 MB jpegs from the Dump to my laptop).
All good comments to think about. I got my friend to set her camera up for me. As I said, first time I've used a D-SLR 'in anger'.
I may get to use her camera again at the Australian titles on the 27th. I see a lenses experiment coming on too.
I'll make sure I get fast memory cards (whether I get an EOS 400D, EOS 40D or whatever). Will use my EOS 50E lenses for starters, they have been good lenses for the last 10 year, but will upgrade 'em if needed.
I'm so looking forward to not having to 'ration' shots!
