<<new camera>> It's good to hear that you took full advantage of your vacation time. My camera technique really could use some Disney World practice too! <g> I shot some building exteriors around here last week and I was amazed to see the difference between good and bad composition. I shot a certain alleyway from two similar angles, but each composed slightly different. One used a wider camera angle from a point fairly close, the other was more distant but with a narrow field of view. They looked like two completely different areas! I've learned that I can shoot terrible video as easily as good video unless I pay close attention to every shot. It's very easy to fall into poor composition and poor camera angles. The best way to avoid these mistakes is through practice. I envy the fact that you had a fun place to experiment! – Dave
