Hi Frank, Actually, the food sold by McDonalds is not all that bad. Whether or not you "personally" like it, apparently enough people in the world do that it is a very successful business.  The...

Actually, though you can slow down your video with a number of different products, as you probably already know, just slowing down a normal 30 fps video to half speed doesn't really give you slow...

LOL - one pound - I'll take it! L

I know Kev, I get Christmas cards from many of my Jewish friends.... The point is that we can't automatically assume that Hobby Lobby is "anti-Jew" because they don't carry seasonal Chanukah items...

Then that would lower the market even more for such religious seasonal merchandise, I would think. Best regards, Lin

Hi Brian, I read it and I have a number of friends who are Hebrew by birth and Christian by choice. Have you actually "seen" David Green? If not, you might want to evaluate the possibility that he...

Maybe it's just a business decision? There are HL stores in something like 38 states and somewhere over 600 stores. The Jewish population in the US is not a huge percentage of the population and...

Roland,  There's less than a pound difference between the 50-500 and the 70-200 F2.8 with a 2X teleconverter. Lin

It's not "just" Americans Bill - It seems to be pretty much a world-wide issue. Last time I was in Paris, McDonalds had begun using glass plates and glasses rather than paper and plastic because...

It's "MAGIC" I tell you! How could this possibly be so? We have been recently reminded by a visiting self-professed sensor expert that "The color accuracy of the Foveon sensor is significantly...

Hi Hard, I suspect that you may have missed the fact that this image was not taken with the photographer holding the camera, nor was it mounted on a tripod, and remotely controlled, but rather...

Hi Kim,
But what defines "work of art?" That in itself is a serious question. In such situation, one could make the case that any building or man-made structure could be so defined. For example,...

The background isn't really blown all that badly that you can't recover most with Photoshop's Shadow/Highlight, etc. Here's a quickie: Best regards, Lin Before:  After:

So Richard, you have created a straw man, misrepresenting my sentiment and baiting for an argument? Of course you have... LOL Perhaps you failed to read Laurence's explanation about the wind. CA is...

Hey Laurence, LOL - I think you are right on with that - just can't help myself... Here's a map - if you zoom in on the bottom of the blue trail line, the decent vantage point from the cliff is...

Makes me want to take another trip to Woodstock! I wonder how the vista might look from the cliff up the Long Trail east of Goshen (Brandon) off Hwy 73 .... When I was there in the fall of 2010 I...

Looking delicious... Some users have no appreciation for creative photography. It's not always about "reality," is it? Best regards, Lin

Hi Vince, The Sigma lenses on the DP Merrill cameras are, in my experience, as good as any lenses made. The new lenses coming from Sigma have been widely acclaimed by reviewers so perhaps what they...

A little, but not hot enough to be an issue. My Nikon 1V1 sometimes gets so hot that it quits working with an error message if I'm shooting lots of quick mult-frame sequences. Compared to most, I...

Ken, the 50mm gives you a 35mm equivalent focal length (because of the 1.5 crop) of a 75mm lens. This makes it a short telephoto. The DP2 Merrill has a 30mm lens which gives you a 45mm equivalent...
