Greetings all,

I have a camera that isnt really new, it is a bit over a year old. Besides it being stolen and replaced once and having to have it repaired for a zoom error once it has been a decent camera for me so far.

It is a Fiji FinePix S5800 and very litttle about it on the internet. I enjoy taking Macros and such with it, trees flowers ect. My son doesent sit still long enough so thats out of the question:D

Anyway, I have an interest in HDR photography at the moment and wonder why when using Autobracketing i manually set my bracket mode to +/- 1 my other options are +/- 1/3 and +-2/3

Which is better, auto bracketing, or manual 3 shot for compositing HDR images.

And does anyone know of resources on the Web for this type of camera, like hints and tips ect for low end cameras and the beginner :D

Thanks for your time.

The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science...
