Fuji A170:
The Fuji A170 has a scene mode for panoramas-take 3 overlapping images and it'll stitch these together in-camera to create a panorama.

My cell phone (Nokia 5220), yesterday's sky:

Considering that I took it from a moving vehicle, I guess it turned out ok.

Mayo clinic shot with a Nikon Coolpix 885 (yuck!). 3 MP and it had all the faults of Nikon point-and-shoots (horrible menus and less-than-stellar image quality compared to rivals. As much as I love my Nikon DSLR, their P&S offerings have always been lacking in my opinion). For all that, I'm still happy with this image.
While at the game, I was lucky enough to anticipate the shutter lag and got this:
Sweet! That one is worthy print and display.
Q: who's got the ball?
From my China May-2005 trip. Captured via picture while taking video.
I paid this guy virtually nothing and watched him build my daughter a pair of shoes.
Which she has outgrown but keeps because they are her "China" shoes, made not by some faceless person but someone who is real and captured.

Nice - would've been better, IMO, without the streetlamp, and on a Canon P&S instead...
(had the same issues when after getting my first Canon P&S which broke and then I replaced it with a Nikon. I had to run out and buy a Canon after using the Nikon a bunch of times...

Nikon Coolpix S3:
No offense, but you might want to consider finding another subject once in a while.
Yup it's city hall really, really early in the morning. So you couldn't see Billy Penn at the top.

Funny how tastes differ. I like the shot specifically BECAUSE of the streetlight in shadow.
I took this several years ago in Napa Valley using my Nikkon E885. I think it was a 3.2 MP point and shoot. I literally got out of my car and pointed it across the highway and snapped the shot. Makes me wish I knew more about photography!

from my 6MP kodak, i feel like i need to get an SLR, but maybe just upgrade to a better point and shoot, what do you all think? i love to take pictures, but i feel like technology is just holding me back...none of these pictures are edited.
