Hi Rick, my intent was never about mud slinging. My intent was to let you know that the information you seek about photography and taking better pictures in Carl's article were written by Carl and his Nikon D-70 camera. many of the hints he gives are from adjustments that are only available on DSLR cameras.
What I suggest doing is forget all the talk here and set up a photo area and start shooting pictures trying every feature on your camera and shareing your achievments here. I expect you will learn much more than any written words here will achieve.
Your also right I never answered your question. In the two comparisons about distortion useing table edges and Tokonoma's. Those four pictures were all shot with AUTO modes on both camera's. The barrel distorted photos with the Fuji were taken much closer to the subject while the nikon images were taken from about 12 to 15 feet back from the subject at 55mm.
I own the Nikon for one reason only. To shoot pictures of my trees and track them for future reference.
FWIW. my camera of choice for all around shooting and at the beach where the fine Pismo sand would ruin my Nikon is the Canon Power Shot A540. It has a stitch mode that is pretty cool. It allows you to stitch together up to 5 seperate shots and render them as a panorama. The view of Pismo Beach represents 270 degrees of panorama. 5 shots stitched together.
