>The 990, like all coolpixes subsequent to the 700 has a tendency to =
overexpose faces with flash, to make facial midtones too red, and to =
suffer from a color shift towards yellow in the washed out highlights.
Same here with the 950. Oh well.

>My experience is that if you set a 990 to focus manually at 3 ft it will =
focus on 3 metres. Try it.
About half the time, I just recheck the viewfinder and LCD.

than NiMh's is the wrong choice for dig cameras.
I wish the Li-Ion in AA form were rechargable, oh well.

other nice thing about the 700 (and I am not sure which other coolpixes) =
is that it can use the newton power adaptor.
Most want to sell model-specific batts. :-(
:-) It can?...use the Newts'?...gotta check that for the 950.
