I went out last night to test my camera at night taking some photos and was utterly shocked to see the photo trashed by White static-looking noise all over the photo. I thought at first I had a defective camera so I read on numerous forums and tech sites only to find that this is a common problem with Canon P&S Cameras. The reason my pictures produced so much noise was because the ISO Setting was at 1600. For the following pictures, I brought ISO down to 400 ( may be too low ), took the image and ran it through a noise reducing program for JPEG photos, brought up sharpness just a bit. All in all I am happy with the quality of the photos now, however, they look incredibly similar to my old camera, just alot sharper. Well, heres a those quick snaps....
I also took a video to test quality. Seems pretty much the same as my old camera. In the video I just do a WOT Sprint down a deserted office street.
Before anyone says anything about the video..
This WAS a deserted office complex and obviously I was the only car around. So don't give me any shi.t about "street racing" on public roads
Also, I realize my car is SLOW. Its a near stock auto SLE v6. Having said this I bet people are still gonna bash this post for 1 of those reasons.
The intentions of this video: With my previous videos of exhaust ( stationary rev, WOT Around corner outside of car ) this completes the set with the prerequisite "WOT Inside the car video". And yes, that is actually wheelspin in the beginning.. my tires are getting bald.

I bought a Canon SD850IS
8 Megapixels
And pulled it out of the box, slapped it on auto and took some quick snapshots with no Tripod or flash.
A few of these pix turned out a bit disappointing IMO, too dark, or too much contrast between light and dark. Once I fiddle with the manual controls my pix will look much much better....
^ Damon's Momo Mats!!! And a massive oil stain on the carpet next to the mat =[
My pretty much stock engine bay with TRD FSTB
And Yes, everyone
I ALREADY KNOW I NEED A KIT
