my question is simple :

is the LCD display of the S2 (and of the others one) good enough to judge the sharpness and the exposure of a picture underwater ?

there's also a mode "preview+histogram" can we trust in this function ?

i think it's a bit stupid because you can just get this tool in preview , so you won't have to forget to record the image before shooting the next one !

otherwise in the other mode , you just have two seconds to see it ! too fast to judge it for me !!

how do you proceed ?

Jerome,

For me, I find that the histogram works very well to judge correct exposure. I almost always shoot with the S2 in "preview + histogram" mode. I learned early, the hard way, not to forget to press "ok". Now, I don't think of it as a problem. It's very easy not to press ok when the histogram shows too much over/underexposure.

I've got good eyes, and I find that I cannot judge sharpness from the LCD. I have to wait until I get the images to the laptop.

Hope this helps,

John
