Makes me wonder...how seamlessly can LCDs do this effect? What's their mandatory margin?
I've worked with LCDs for commercial installation with margins down to about half an inch. For large video walls there are special projection style monitors that have about an 1/8th of an inch margin, though in the past few years huge flexible walls of LEDs have been the way to go, I've worked with a few of those than can cover the wall of a room. We had one of them in the Porsche room at the LA Auto Show this year.
Does anyone have good recommendations for my first digital camera? I'm looking for something I can point-and-shoot, with a decent zoom capability and longlasting battery life with ease of downloading, all for a reasonable (preferably under $200) price.
I have had 3 Sony Cyber-shots that have met my point-and-shoot needs. I think they can be picked up for less than $200.
DH's Nikon Coolpix takes better pictures than my Sony Cybershot (better focus, much richer colors), but that may be because it's a newer camera and nothing to do with the model.
My iPod Touch says that there are no movies on it...but I just synced it, and my computer says the movie is there...
Anyone else have this issue?
ETA: There was an update, and it totally solved my issue.
I have always been very fond of Canon cameras and have owned quite a few with no problems over the years.
I did a little poking around Consumer Reports ratings for digital cameras, and the Canon PowerShot A720IS 8MP with 6x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom looks rather promising, especially since it's only $195 at Amazon. CR gave it a score of 75, which is decent for that low of a price.
I am eventually going to buy myself a Sony Cybershot DSCW55. Yes, in pink. It's gotten good reviews, it's small (which is what I'm looking for, because I want to cart it around in my purse), and hey! Pink!
Canon cameras are quiet good. I have had several and have the XTi on my "list of things to get".
