Nikon P90

[Yochi23]

Hi there,

I've just bought the new Nikon P90. I had the previous version P80 and was very happy with it. I bought the P90 mainly because of the fantastic zoom.
With my first tries of the zoom, some of the pictures were very grainy!!! True I put the scene mode on close up but this was the way I took pictures of birds with my P80 and got good results.
Anyone had similar problems with the zoom???

Any suggestion on how take take good pictures with the maximum zoom?? What scene mode?

Thanks

Yochi, if you havent already, check out the HUGE thread in this forum solely about the P90. Also, post up some of your pics with the settings.

Take it out of Auto. Set the ISO manually to something under 400.
