Playing with the wifes new Sony hx30v

[Simsy]

Well while I am waiting for my Nex f3 to arrive I started getting bored, so I decided to have a go with the wifes new Sony p/s camera. I bought her this camera for the same reason as I bought my nex. As we are now starting to travel by air instead of the 4x4 carrying a a77 for me and a a580 for her plus all the lenses and other associated gear is problematic so we have both downsized for travel. Anyway so I went out the back and snapped a couple shots the wife then had a go out the front, all these shots were taken on out the box settings (Auto) and the result isn't half bad given that the camera has a multitude of settings I'm sure they will improve greatly.

DSC-HX30V    ---    9mm    f/4.0    1/25s    ISO 800

DSC-HX30V    ---    9mm    f/4.0    1/40s    ISO 800

DSC-HX30V    ---    20mm    f/4.5    1/80s    ISO 800

DSC-HX30V    ---    20mm    f/4.5    1/80s    ISO 800

The coulor in the wifes flowers has blown aout a fair bit but overal not bad for a first shot.
