Hmmmmm..... how should I interpret the fact that no photographer has ever approached me and asked to take my photo?

This is a pretty balanced review of the new cameras based on very little hand time. https://photographylife.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-nikon-z-cameras A refreshing break from all the click-bait headlines and vlogs.

Speaking as an engineer, it is nice to listen to an engineer instead of a marketing rep. He dumbed it down just enough for the audience, I think.

Cool video about the new mount (flange distance and diameter)https://www.youtube.com/embed/LxT17A40d50

That 58mm f/0.95 is probably going to cost more than the D850 and the kit lens. To me the only reason to upgrade would be for the new lenses and lens mount, whenever that becomes compelling. More frames per second isn't something that is important …

Wow. I don't think that I'd ever put my DSLR on a drone. I barely allow myself to touch it.

I have been trying to take that perfect panorama of downtown Austin, waiting for the right light and sky conditions. I tried again last week. I think that the light was OK, but the sky was hazy and dull. This pano extends from the University of …

My mother had 4 boys. I don't know how she is sane.

I think that email is supposed to be dead too.

My cameral is a Nikon D750 and the lens is a Rokinon 14mm f/2.4. This was a 20 second exposure, at ISO3200. With the sensor active and the shutter open for 20 seconds, every time he flashed his tail, I got a little yellow dot on the image. My …

I went out to Colorado Bend State Park in Texas in an attempt to take some night sky pictures of the Milky Way. CBSP is one of the darkest area around me, so I have gone there a few times for astrophotography. Unfortunately, the clouds moved in and …

I write my blog regularly, but I mainly do it for myself. I am not promoting or selling anything.

I love his heart-shaped face and the light on the wood.
