These pictures were all taken with a Sony Alpha 100 (DSLR) str8 out of the box. No fiddling, just took the pics to see how it did. No trouble focusing and good close ups. Apart from the garden shot, all were taken in dark room with a flash.The sweater is done on the Passap 6000 using OX/N. I love this stitch formation and it makes large size sweaters easily. The yarn is 2x 2/28's merino.

A quick shot of our back garden. Just after I took this the wind got up and the heavens opened. The weather man said it would be sunny and warm....

Nice camera, wonderful sweaters, beautiful puppies and I hope you didn't get too wet on your sunny and warm day :) Sounds like your weather people are about as accurate as ours. Good think you make such perfect sweaters.

"I've never said anything to Colin because my English is very poor. Sorry!
His sweaters are superb!!!
I have bookmarked his blog. Only problem for me is that I don't always understand the technical explanations.
My favorite is the Norwegian sweater. I'm a beginner and even though I've understood it's knitted with the GC, I'm in awe when I see the work, finishing and ideas!!!"
Beautiful as ever, Colin. I am impressed, as usual, by your sense of balance and of space,
and your obsession for perfection. Very mysterious... and quite effective!
That's it, Colin! You've show us the perfect camera. Thank you!
Colin thank you for such an interesting blog, and beautiful knitting and
dogs and garden.
Camera looks good Colin. I had to come see because despite having a rather expensive and loads of buttons digital I pine for the good old days of SLR when you could make the picture look how you wanted without having to use photoshop. Really, out of the box and pics posted straight away? That's good. I may have to check it out....
