What's all this about Ken Rockwell?

6 months ago

What's wrong with Ken Rockwell? I've seen a lot of posts on DPreview that really put this guy down. But when you look at his website, there is a wealth, a treasure-trove of very clearly written information. Useful! Both about cameras -- film and digital -- and about photo techniques. I'd think that anyone who can write so clearly about photography would get a medal, instead of carping criticism. What am I missing here?
