The other reviews look so professional compared to mine which was made by a kid.

To the other winners: Congrats, any chance you guys could tell me what cameras/settings you used to take pictures of a DS screen, the quality of your pictures are amazingly good, something I can't seem to reproduce at all.

I just zoomed in and took the shot. I was a little lazy to get out the tripod, thats why all my shots are not centered properly.

oh yey! haha i was getting doubtful towards the end with the sudden rush of reviews xDD. and the photo's i just turned macro on, flash off. my camera is one of those cameras which chooses the focus point for you and "tries" to make it look better by warping the things around it a little. hence the fisheye shots.

YAY! Wow I am impressed with all of the other 4 winners' reviews, I honestly think mine was probably the worst of the winners, which means I should work harder. And god some of my pictures are ugly. Lol

Anyways congrats everyone.

O yea, you guys spelled my username wrong..... again.... XD At least I hope I won and it isn't a guy with a disturbingly similar name.

The trick to avoiding fisheye, is to go a bit further back, then zoom in on the object (optical zoom is better, but digital works too) that way you get a less distorted picture. (Obviously you still need macro if it's optically zoomed in)

Then I adjusted the perspective to make it a perfect rectangle and cropped. If you really want you could even adjust colours, contrast etc.

As for the wierd lines, that is mainly the camera... If you can do it you could try a longer/shorter exposure, to see if it gets rid of it.

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
