When this lens popped up everyone gasped and boggled at it. When I tried to use one, I got yelled at for trying to fix it (check the fifth image in the gallery and read the description). Maybe it’s for the best that it was broken. Source. [...] Continue reading The Sigma 200-500 makes sense to me now This past Sunday, Alex and I returned to the incinerator to continue working on some things we started during our first shoot together (also at the incinerator, covered here). My friend Joe came along again to help out and do some shooting of his own. Unlike our last trip to the incinerator, the weather was considerably warmer and the ground was no longer covered in snow, making the hike down far less tiring. [...] Continue reading Another shoot at the abandoned incinerator with Alex Semi-spontaneous shoots are fun, but they can also sometimes present some problems. A week ago I met with Alicia and we went to the Eastman House to do some shooting, unfortunately we were blessed with unusual weather for the Rochester area. The harsh light of a cloudless day wasn’t exactly what I had hoped for and it wasn’t what I remembered seeing on the forecast a couple days before either! [...] Continue reading Alicia at the Eastman House Of all the special edition cameras that I’ve covered here, this might be one of my favorites. For nearly $1500, if you’re in China, you can get one of 2010 Jackie Chan Eye of the Dragon limited edition 550Ds (that’s a Rebel T2i if you were wondering). The kit comes with specially imprinted camera bodies, an upgraded kit lens (18-135 IS) and a fancy matching album, camera case and strap.

Well… apparently I should have tried this before because strapping the Zipka Plus I keep in my camera bag on to the prism housing of my camera proved to be the ideal focusing light! Since I was shooting with flash I just left it on the entire time and it saved me a ton of hassle. Obviously my Blackberry takes pictures of the utmost quality!

[...] Continue reading I just use P for Professional mode The modern camera does a lot to flatter its ancestors. From using the same lenses to being designed like traditional film cameras, we haven’t seen much departure from the tried and tested. In some cases that’s probably a pretty good thing, but in others it doesn’t hurt to look at what options the less restrictive digital camera’s innards allow. [...] Continue reading Rethinking camera ergonomics Since beginning this site I’ve always found it interesting to see what search queries drive some of the visitors to this site. [...] Continue reading The grass is always oranger. (Answering a search query) A bit over a week ago I went to Black Creek Park with Olivia and her assistant (aka boyfriend) and we trudged though more mud than anticipated to do some shooting. It was a fairly spur of the moment shoot, we really didn’t have a location planned or specific shots in mind but we had some ideas.
