Happy to have tried.  'Still surprised on my end...  I was going to do what Rich did and ask for a sample too but the dog is now sleeping  LOL

We'll all be ready to play junior editor for the next Vossen adventure!

Thanks much for the offer, but I have put this one to bed.  The captures 
I have are good enough, and not worth more time & effort.

Yup.  Thanks for the details though, I knew some of that at a high 
level, but not the correct terms.

The camera does have a burst mode (and a sports mode), but getting it 
pointed and clicked fast enough to catch dolphins breaching was beyond 
our reflexes, and probably the camera too.  Shooting video more-or-less 
Just Worked.

If I'd thought about it, I should have checked to see if the camera had 
a "raw" mode, which it probably does.  That would have been good to 
shoot this in, assuming the memory card was big enough.  I could have 
off-loaded to a laptop periodically though.  Oh well.  Maybe next time.

Thanks Rich^2 and Keith,
JP
