Rainbow umbrella shot with the Kodak nc2000e

I wanted to shoot this scene with my new (old) Kodak 720x but the battery just won't hold a charge, so I grabbed it with my Kodak nc2000e digital camera instead. This is actually a view of our deck umbrella with the rain on our slider.

Out of the camera comparison

Here's another quick Nikon D2h versus nc2000e comparison. These were taken at Shelton High School's Graduation Exercises in Shelton, Conn. on Friday June 18, 2010.

Out of the camera the D2h's colors are drab whereas the nc2000e's colors are vibrant (top photo).

The D2h scores points on a more film-like look when zoomed in on details (bottom photo).

Points for the nc2000e when used in Program Mode and matrix metering. This camera (since it is technically a film camera) still works better when metering various difficult conditions like these graduates who are backlit.

The D2h falls short when using Program Mode. Highlights at any point in the frame cause either massive under or overexposure. Manual is just about the only way to go when light is like this.
