I'm mulling a similar decision. I'm curious if anyone has any oppinion on the Tonkina 17-35 f/4 in this regard. Does anyone have any experience as to how it compares in terms of IQ compared to the...

Worth pointing out Metabones makes 2 Canon lens to NEX adaptors: the Smart Adaptor that has no optic but just has the electronics to allow the NEX body to control the aperture, provide power to the...

Because the D7100 isn't a 54MP camera, it's a 24MP camera, because the Nikon 1 isn't a 106MP camera, it's a 14.2 MP camera... The problem generally comes from the size of the files you need to...

The extra AF points are only useful if you use them, but it does make a camera cost more. I'm just pointing out that in this respect the D7100 and the D600 is not an even comparison. The improved...

The D7100 just came out, so there are not refurbished models available at the moment, but there will be soon enough and it will be cheaper. Comparing apples to apples, the D600 costs $800 more than...

A D600 costs $2000 new a D7100 costs $1200 new. so we're talking a $2100 vs $1550 difference, also the Samyang on the D7100 will be light years sharper than the 19-35mm on the D600, so you pay $550...

Sigma just announced a little while back an 18-35mm f/1.8 DX lens. I know it's not a direct corrilation, as it would be more like a 27-55mm f/2.7 equivalent, but camera companies are starting to...

Lightroom IS offered under the creative cloud. it also will remain as a box. Lightroom is unique because both pros (read: Photoshop Extended, etc. users) as well as hobbyists/amateurs (read:...

This is not in adobe's long term plan. Lightroom walks the line as being used by both consumers and pro/enterprise people. They want to push Creative Suite apps to just be more enterprise or high...

You want at least one (or more) large (36x48") softboxes. Position the main softbox to the side, if you have more softboxes put one or two on either side of the camera and or slightly above On the...

This is correct. It doesn't check every day and there is some flexibility in this respect. This is my concern. 90% of the time it's not an issue, but if I'm paying that money I expect it to work...

Good to know. I know the WL's were built like a tank and are better if you're going to treat them poorly and knock the stands over. I'm just more concerned with just wear from firing. Thanks. \~K

Thank you, this is very good to know. This isn't for making art. This is for documenting art, so it's going to be high production. Generally I recommend using Brocolors but but even with those...

For paintings with heavy impasto (heavy build up of paint or visible brush strokes) there are several approaches. One is to use very large light banks from over head and use the lights at 45 to...

I'm curious how much abuse the Einstein lights can take. They look great on paper, but I work in a relatively high production setting... needing to take a few hundred photos over the course of an 8...

Yes Adobe wants to go cloud, on paper it seems more profitable and the income is more consistent and predictable. However they will have serious issues implementing it. While many users have...

We have a Nikon D700 and that we put on a microscope. For teaching purposes it would be nice to get live view video from the camera and either display it on a large screen (or maybe several...
