I too am a photographer and have had no problems what so ever with this computer being able to keep up with hi resolution downloads or uploads. In fact, I just completed a mwmorial dvd project and the k410 performed flawlessly.

Yes, I think this will be fine for basic still photography and editing. My wife has this unit with over 40,000 photos, and PhotoShop 12 on it, and LIghtRoom as well, and it works fast and smoothly.

Yes, but the real issues are quality of pictures.........poor, and digital retrieval time......poor. I've used camera only a few times because of the poor picture quality. Makes an excellent paperweight.

Any photos developed yet? My one concern is low light photographs...Just wondering about quality and ease of use. How easy are the automatic features to use?

Hi Kateyn, I have use the photo side of this software for 10+ years to do any number of editing. I would say it is not a 100% match to Photoshop feature for feature, but it is all that a sophisticated non-professional needs in a photo editor. You can do so much with it and the learning curve is not so steep. Has very useful tutuorials and plenty of online forums with great user interaction. It all comes down to price, features and your intended use. It is a wonderful application for the price. I like to have fun editing my photos and to this day, I have never felt a need to spend the extra money for Photoshop. I hope this helped. :-)

Well I do have this camera. And unlike the other review, one week after I got it, I had a wedding to go to in Florida. My pictures came out pretty darn good. In the reception hall, there was a couple of red eye pictures and some were darker than I liked, but overall I was satisfied. Plus, at the time I was still learning to use it. I've owned a Sony, Kodak, and now a Canon camera and I have to say the Canon is the best thus far. Indoor pictures are always tricky because of the lighting. I don't know how soon your wedding is, but my suggestion is to buy the camera, take a couple of pictures indoors with it see how they come out, and decide whether or not if you want to keep it. You can always return it if you don't like it.

It will all depend on the lens you use. This camera has a good image processor and good performance on high ISO settings. But the second most important will be the lens you put on it, having to be a fast one (one that can have a really "small" f number). The first one will always be your dedication as to create a good composition, management of light, etc.

Yes its worked great for me. outline drawings are actually the best. color photos n stuff come out blurry usually. but yes for outlines its awesome. I'm happy with the machine. jus make sure ur outline is nice n dark. it comes out perfect every time.

It works great. The only issue i've had is i am very forgetful sometimes i forget to check the light management system and i take a really dark/light photo. Just make sure you don't have any standards set high the photos on black and white film look good but the color ones look really vintage. Also i don't know where your camera is coming from and what condition it's in. I got mine in very good condition and it looked practically new. If you buy it only take pictures from 3.9 feet away unless you have a close up lense. If you do take a picture close up it'll turn out blurry. Which means you have to have someone take a picture for you if you want to be in it. The film is a little expensive too. It works great.

Yes, it is wonderful. High end features without extreme complication. You can add features as you desire or feel comfortable and also just use as a better point and shoot with better resolution and low-light response than you ever will see in a point and shoot.

Of course you can improve your photos! That's the whole point of image editing software. Adjusting colors, sharpness, brightness, etc. are just a few things you can do. And don't be sucked in by RAW. For most people, it's highly overrated.

I have taken some good pictures with it. You have to use it in manual mode. I'm not a lazy person so I don't mind using manual mode.

The camera is good. I've used it for instagram and posting to fb. Sometimes it looks grainy but need to make sure the settings are on the highest resolution/pixels possible.

My suggestion as a photographer is to skip out on the cheaper camera and spending more on a intuitive camera if you can. I use this camera for snap shots. I cannot really depend on it for quickness.

Hello William, I have not had a problem storing photos. I have a lot of them on this machine. I don't edit or crop them very often but this computer can do anything a larger computer can do. It just can't do it as fast as a larger, more powerful computer can. It is a great size for traveling so you can load your pictures and view them every day. Good luck with your computer shopping, Joe Busa

For me, there is kind of a long delay. It doesn't really take photos fast. Also, when it is not zoomed in all the way, it doesn't take as good photos as it does when it is in full zoom (weird). Also, the quality of the photos indoors are not that great. The quality of the photos outdoors are better.

Sometimes in low light it seems to be too long. It depends on the setting and if the lighting is appropriate for the setting you choose. There is a high speed burst feature that lets you take high speed single photos, like a movie only freeze frame that is really fast. Overall, I'd say once you are familiar with the settings and features its pretty quick. It does take some playing with it to get used to all the options.
