Good luck. Ella is absolutely adorable when the camera is off. Once on she has to watch it and will just sit or stare at it. I have lots of picts of her looking right at the camera, and very few of anything else.

Don't have any advice on getting him to sit but maybe you should get a cam-corder I'd love to see the video of all his antics. Maybe he feels he's for the big screen and wants to be an action hero. Maybe with time he will behave better, maybe take pictures even if they are great it may help him get used to having his picture taken. Good luck.

Guess what? I got some good photos last night, of them playing and sitting nice!!!!! I let Simon 'investigate' the camera for a few mintues (took it away when he tried to EAT IT!), and then I got some shots! I will post them tomorrow or Monday (have to work all day today)!

The only thing I can think of is to give him a cookie every time the camera comes on. That way he thinks of it as a good thing. If you worry about calories, use charlie bear treats. I know I did that with Miranda and she got used to a lot of things. The only problem now is she waits a long time for that cookie and I have trouble saying no..... we are both on a diet now. LOL

This is funny! And odd! Sounds like Simon is fixated on your camera like our dogs are on the vacuum and the garden hose (hope this isn't true; if it is, FORGET photography!).<br />
<br />
A general tip is to shoot while your subject is engaged in something; keeps them occupied and distracted from the camera.<br />
My Canon A590 allows me to turn operation sounds on/off, and you may want to turn off the redeye suppression lamp too; these may bother/scare the dog. It's possible that the visible autofocus lamp is a…

Avoid using flash at close range.<br />
<br />
Try extinction: carry the camera around all the time until it's so routine that the dog loses interest.<br />

I feel your pain though. I ended up getting a good camera that didn't take so long to focus since I was missing a ton of shots. Some point and shoot cameras take forever to focus due to lighting conditions too.
