I know it's not possible but it would have been interesting to compare pics at the same exposure.

Thanks, Ray.

Yeah... It's definitely not an apples to apples comparison, but it compares my shooting styles/modes (auto), so in this case, it's a comparison.

Before I lost my Canon, I was going to RTFM/search the web/harrass my Xoutpost buddies to see how to manually set it for my conditions, but never got around to it. I know those photos could've been improved, but it's too late now.

I'm so excited to use this camera and see what it can do. There are so many things around the farm to capture.

I'm so glad I bought a 1TB external hard drive last year!
