Using the camera in program mode with auto bracketing turned on should give you reasonable results. Winter light is “cooler” in nature and the bright reflections from snow and ice tend to make the final image too “bright."

Bracketing exposures help when photographing outdoors in the snow.

You can use flash as well. Remember to keep a spare battery for the camera, and keep it warm if you plan on being in the cold very long.

Camera is very clear during the day but it night we see snow off and on during the night

This is true of all digital cameras. Dim light will cause noise in the sensor that displays as snow. Add light to help.

I'm using GIMP to try to create falling snow. The 1st snow image has snow covering the image, the 2nd has the snow moved down 12.5 pixels, the 3rd has the snow moved down another 12.5 pixels, etc. until I...

How are you playing it? are you trying to create an animated gif?

If so, do the following:-

Create a file, with each of your snow images as layers, then

File-> Save As.

Name the image, then go to "Select File Type."

Make it a .gif image, and then click save.

GIMP gives you the option of flattening it or creating an animated gif. Click the button that says "Save as Animation", and then click export.

Then you get to alter a few more variables in the next dialog box (- you can set the frame rate (a higher number makes the animation go faster) )

Then once saved, load it up in an internet browser, and it should work.

Once you've saved you're gif image, open it up in your image viewer. If your normal image viewer doesn't show the animation, try opening it in Firefox or Internet Explorer. You can do this by right clicking on the file, and selecting "Open With." Then choose your internet browser, and you're all set!

When taking pics my camera pic are a white blur how do i fix it?

Back up from what you are photographing, and turn your flash off or onto auto. You do this by lightly tapping the little Lightening bolt in the lower right corner of the LCD screen and repeat as necessary until the yellow lightning bolt on the left side of the screen either has a red circle on it w/ a light through it (off) or a capitol A beside it (auto). I prefer auto, because I take most of my photos outdoors and it's hard to tell if a flash is necessary under a tree when its really sunny, or on a really cloudy day @ the beach...(sunny day in the shade-flash. Cloudy &rainy beach? No flash, not ever!) There is a problem w/ the cameras flash system though, you can set it on auto thinking that you can just click away & let the camera handle the flash like you can on most cameras, but the Vivitar almost always has to have the flash reset after every single photo, but then every once in a while it stays on the same setting all day long!

My headlights are really dim at night. But everyone says there fine. what should i do?

The headlights on my Tahoe are dim too. It's also a 1999. I replaced my bulbs with Silverstar's but it was still dim. I used Mequiar's Headlight kit to polish off the yellowing and oxidized headlight's and it really made them look good but they are still not bright. They look bright but the light hitting the road is still weak. It's because the inside of my headlights are a little bit cloudy still. The heat damage from the bulb made the insides cloudy and the light is still weak on the road at night. That's all I can do unless I replace the headlight assemblies. Much money and not super simple to do. I have very bright bulbs just cloudy housings that still don't allow the beam to fully shine through. I don't know if that is your issue but I hope this helps.
