No Bob its the old model, most of my pictures are about the same quality as these, very seldom do I get a blank picture, The only problem I have is when the fog moves in, it makes them a little fuzzy. Is your flash reflector real nice and shiny? Last year I took so many pictures that mine was starting to turn black from the flash, I guess from the flash burning it.I sent it in and they fixed it.

One thng I would like to see on the Cuddebacks would be the way the pictures are stored on the card, I wish you could set it to where the file names would keep going in a numerical order instead of starting over at 1 when you put a new card in, I save all mine to a file on my computer and also on a disc, if it has more than one pictue file with the same number from 2 cardsI either have to change the file number or delete one before I can save it, also in having an on going file number it would make keeping count of your pictures thur out the year a little easier.
