Hope I can improve on that cause I have the feeling the blurs come more from a focus problem.

I used a syringe for my drops and focused manually to the numbers on it.
Af can also be used the same way, set to center-AF and hold the shutter-half-way to focus then make drops and press it fully.
I like the manual-focus better. :D

Amazing waterdropts, Coutts!

Would you mind giving us the actual settings? I am using the Allbest#50 on my SD1000 and even though I set the shutterspeed to 1/100K I am only getting 1/1500 according to the preview. I am shooting in manual mode so as to activate the flash. Everything is totally blanched out.

Am awfully jealous of your pictures!

honestly? i dont have a clue how to use the manual focus on my sd1000 (only have it in chdk) :lol

For those pics i just set it in manual mode, set the shutter speed override to 1/100,000th of a second (i know it wont go that high but that was to achieve the highest speed possible) and set the metering mode or w/e to macro.

the SD1000 doesnt have and ajustable flash output. This was just autofocus and alot of shots lol

(A720IS, 1/16000, manual mode, flash at minimum power)


The last kind is a bit difficult to get :\

I've been trying to take these types of photos and my pictures are totally washed out.  How do you modify the flash power on an A530?
