Very nice old_red_eye, and that swing looks real cool.

The camera may be fine, you may just need better lighting or get yourself Photoshop. It has help me guit a bit, and i'm still learning.

That blue handled one, is it acrylic???Really like the colour.

The blue one is a 9" FB teflon and acrylic.
I paid too much for it but it does work excellent, a very
strong snap and lockup. I have snapped it a lot and no
signs of the black finish wearing yet.

Thanks old_red_eye. I also have a couple in teflon from Frank, and am afraid the coating will wear out if i play with it too much.

I agree. I like the saying, "It's a poor craftsman who blames his tools." With some proper lighting and a little knowledge of photography *almost* any camera will take decent pictures.

Secondly, In your second picture did you use the flash? If u did, that accounts for the glare on the blades.

You best bet is to find a spot with good, not harsh lighting and skip the flash.
