Settings for Fuji S6000?

[DawnT]

Hi all!

Thanks for the great information here. I read a lot when I was in the market for a new camera. I got the Fuji S6000 for Mother's Day and I was hoping for some tips.

I use a light tent with 5 or 6 daylight bulbs and a tripod. On my old camera (a cheapo HP) I was told by an HP photographer to: set the white balance manually, set the ISO speed to 100 and the E.V. compensation to .3 or .7. Are these the same settings I need to play with on the Fuji? My goal is to do as little manipulation in PS as possible since I suck at PS and my photos end up looking terrible in the end.

Thanks in advance for any advice on my camera settings .
