Why does my camera ALWAYS seem to zoom to the wrong - 01-12-2006, 08:58 PM

While at a NY Eve party I took some pictures in between bets in the Hold Em game and i STILL dont know how the camera zoomed to her shirt it just always seems to do that on its own. lol
whats even funnier is after i shot it i was lookin at it in the viewfinder, the guy sittin next to me in the game said le me see ( he had had a few or more) he then informed me that "thats my daughter" lol i said oh hell no kiddin he said sure no problem its new years. I told him thats good cause I would have done it last year.

glad he understood lol

i love this forum I havent got to post much the holidays kept me hoppin but i check it a couple of times daily

Well, actually...It is the nut behind the viewfinder that needs a little adjustment. Once properly adjusted, the problem be eradicated!
