  • Nikon avoided the stupidity of a touch screen that does not work when wet like so many other "underwater" cameras. Now the question remains whether the LCD can produce a visible image in the bright...

  • I can't wait to see the Microsoft ad, "Tap Dancing for Nokia".

  • The ice cream cone is certainly erotic. Lots of play in her photographs.

  • A 7 year old would look at this, sniff, and then wirelessly down load her iPod picture to the family printer on the family network.

  • Commented on 2013 Waterproof Camera Roundup preview

    No company I know of sells an indoor camera. The claim of the camera maker should be taken into consideration. If the finder/LCD can only be seen indoors that should disqualify the camera from...

  • Somewhere on his site recently he said the V2 is equal to and better in some ways than the Nikon D80. So stock photography may not be so far fetched. The Fuji APS models would be even better...
  • I really doubt that it is sharper. The 10-30 is pretty darn sharp. The goal was low price and compactness in designing it, in order to make it easier to sell the V2/J3 and for the majority which...
  • Get yourself over to slrgear.com where there are tests of both lenses. The 10-100 is a touch slower and maybe a touch softer at the longer focal lengths. Probably not enough to make a big...
  • Replied in Nikon V2
    I just got mine and I love it. It operates like a traditional camera instead of like one of those "simplified" cameras that confuse everyone. Like the J1, J2, and V1. It has real controls and has...
  • 75mm equivalent is not really in the portrait range. The 90mm equivalent is right in the middle of the range. You will be able to get closer, ie, tight head shot, with the 60mm with out getting the...
  • SLR Gear tested both lenses and the 16-50 zoom is sharper with better corners. What is needed for landscapes. Take that and you will use it the most. Take the long lens. You will need it to get in...
  • Good one here as well. http://www.sansmirror.com/cameras/a-note-about-camera-reviews/nikon-1-camera-reviews/nikon-v2-review.html
  • Replied in Only two
    Polarizing filter which reduces surface reflections and deepens colors. Close up filter for macro shots. All filters degrade the image a little bit. Only use a filter if there is an effect you are...
  • An 18-200 is not a midrange zoom. It is an exceptionally wide range zoom. You cannot expect  a zoom with the same range covering an APS-C  sensor to be as small as one designed to cover a sensor...
  • Nikon doesn't share, not even with Adobe, mainly I think to protect their own Nikon Capture software. Adobe makes their best guess on decoding Nikon Raw files. Nikon does not share information...
  • Lots of prospective Nikon 1 customers jumped on the huge V1 price cut just before the v2 came out. I just got a V2 and it is lots nicer in my opinion than the V1. This very fair review by Thom...
  • Photo Ninja is another raw converter that might be used in conjunction with an editing program.

    My question is which of these programs might accept plugins designed for Photoshop. The NIK plugins...

  • Olympus has been an occasionally innovative company with interesting ideas, but has never been run well even going back to the film days when they ignored autofocus and raised their prices...

  • I moved from a D300 to the D800. I did a lot of research and downloaded a lot of comparative images which could be made indistinguishable with a very minor touch of sharpening of the non-E images....
  • Replied in It's the Lens
    Tilt shift lenses are specially designed. Because you are shifting it all over the place it needs to have a large image circle and it needs to very uniform in its image quality or you will have a...
