    Wonderful shots, loving the detail.

    Do you get those "within a second" shots by some sort of burst mode or something?

    Thanks folks, much appreciated.

    Shima, yes its a burst shot of 4 frames a second but only up to 6 shots. Thats the most I can squeeze out of the FZ10, but its more than most. I have got another sequence where all 6 turned out fine.

    All the best all and thanks again mwink.gif

    Great shots
    Hi Danny,
    Strange, I can't see the pictures from work (I really shouldn't be looking from there), but I see them fine from home. Oh well.

    Outstanding series. Guess I need to relook at your site again to see the other sets. Always a pleasure because I see something that I overlooked before.
