Night Clouds with near full moon.


This camera has difficulty showing details on the bright moon with dark sky. One has to set setttings. I will try the Canon SX50HS sooner or later.

Lens flare can ruin photos.



Fujifilm may have designed an excellent affordable superzoom camera in the HS50EXR, with good manual lens zooming as its best feature. However, the lens should be improved by minimizing the flare problem. We see this in the following photo taken along NLEX in Pampanga inside a fast moving van.



It may be fixed with an image manipulation program, but alas, we may not have the time to tinker with postprocessinng software.

We may minimize but not eliminate flare problem by tiling the camera a few degrees. We advise the reader to experiment and shoot more often of a scene for greater chance of selecting the best photo among the set.
