Chris Yarzab's photostream  

Hello, My name is Chris Yarzab and I'm a Christian.

I am currently employed Full-Time as a Supervisor with Central Parking Systems.

In 1982 I took my first few pictures with a disposable camera during my graduation from Byrd Junior High in Sun Valley. It wasn't until many years later when I purchased my first camera in 2005 which was a Samsung Digimax 430

Here is a photo from 2006 using the Digimax 430:

and then in June of 2008 I purchased my first DSLR camera.

I currently own:

Nikon D80
Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G IF-ED AF-S VR DX Lens
SB-800 Speed-Light

Nikon Coolpix S80. While it is possible to produce decent photos with this camera ( www.flickr.com/groups/1547626@N25/ ) I regret buying it after ignoring the bad reviews because I believed that Nikon was getting a bad rap about the S80 and I was going to prove people wrong but I found out for myself that the camera is difficult to operate and unpredictable.

I'll point out just 4 of the many problems that I've experienced with the S80. 1st problem is that on occasions when I attempt to record video of an important event the camera locks up. 2nd problem is that the camera is shaped in such a way that it has slipped out of my fingers while trying to take a photo. 3rd problem is the location of the lens. It's so close to the top edge that the tips of my fingers on my left hand sometimes end up in the picture or video. 4th problem is that on a sunny day it's hard to see what you are filming or taking photos of so it's hit and miss. I wish Nikon would recall the camera so I use the money toward another camera.

I purchased two Canon SD1000's and one SD870 IS point & shoot cameras a couple of years ago as gifts for my mom, sister and cousin that are still very easy to operate. I can turn the camera on and snap a shot with one hand.

Camera's & Lens I have that I do not use:
