Have you got a default setting on your camera you can go to?

No looks fine,then when I take a shot it goes fuzzy....probably something or nothing

The reason I asked about automatic is that in the zoomed images seem to have a higher ratio of light shades than the ordinary shots. Is it possible the compensation settings have been altered.
Does it give you that effect on all zoomed images?

Anything is possible,our peg has had her mitts on it so she may of changed a setting.

I tried resetting it to default but the same happens when I use zoom....very strange.

Can you upload the same photos without stripping the exif data, that way we can see what settings have been used. If not upload them to photobucket and post a link.
Can`t think of any camera setting that would do this, but worth a look anyway.

You could also place your camera in a black bin bag with just the end of the lens poking out of a hole, wrap an elastic band around it, take a picture (zoomed) if it improves then then you have what Gremlin suggested, light leaking in somewhere.

The bloke in a camera shop in Bburn says it's the light sensor or something like that.....surely that should effect all the pics?
it's not worth fixing as its only a old (Fuji finepix SD6500fd) camera and it'd cost more than buying another camera.....sales pitch? Hmmmm
Its still ok for macro and none zoomed images so all isn't lost

Well your Peg was the last to use it, so she owes you a new camera.

Just a few gosling pics from a quick walk along the canal

Today was a windy experience, one minute I was on the edge of "Ossy" Moor the next I was promenading along the Rossendale Way. It proved to me we live in green and sometimes pleasant land. On the way home the Gorse lining the motorway was belting out full colour and the Ox Eye Daisy was giving a hint it was about to drift white flowers everywhere, and on the wind you could smell the Hawthorn flowers.

1. Jamestone Quarry with Ossy Moor off to the left.
2. As we edge up the hill a big machine is pushing stuff around in the quarry.
3. I am starting to wonder if I am in for a dousing.
4. Trees are shaped by the elements, and not by their desire for the light.
5. I am stood on the Rossendale Way, and just over that wall is Ossy Moor.
6. On the boundary looking in the direction of Helmshore.
7. The remains of what I believe is an old cart track.
8. The top end of Jamestone Quarry, and tucked into the "V" of the trees on the right is Troy Quarry.
9. The turbines are turning under turbulent skies.
10.Just on the edge of Ossy Moor looking over to Calf Hey and Musbury Heights.

Number 8 is a stunner.

I suggested this idea to Mrs E,I have to say,she wasn't impressed
She said (sarcastically) "yes dear,of course,what camera would you like?
I replied "the one with a shutter that operates so fast, it would be able to take a picture of a you with your mouth shut".......🙊
