Who's the tramp at the beach showing off her calves??? Absolutely disgusting! No proper female would dare to bare in such a shameless way!

Run down to the store and buy some Kodak film... or not...  For everyday working, the best digital beats MF of the pre-digital era.. that is what counts, since the issue has been settled by the...

Oh Boy... Something that cheap might have an issue or two... The thing about the 18~55 is that it is buttery smooth (when new and clean!)... on par with something from Leica (screw you Leica...

This is an incredible lens ... extremely well built and optically far above the norm. I wish there were more used versions, but it is so popular that is not the case. There are some folks who just...

The current MF backs are more like 4x5 and 8x10s in the film days... very specialized. My Bronica ETRS could not equal what my Canon FF digitals can generate... hell my 50D can blow my MF stuff to...

that's what's nice about this forum... we can express different opinions and learn from each other... if we all agreed it would be damn boring!

FM2s in 1984 were $250 in NYC... the 105 Nikkor new in 1984 was about $200... I can dig out my receipts (they're somewhere)... loved that camera, lens, and that film!  But I love that I can see...

Do your research! Joe Rosenthal said it was staged, but he was referring to the crowd of cheering Marines standing around the already raised flag. He thought that was the shot used by all the...

I am visiting Singapore and their art/science museum has a NG special exhibit of 50 best photos. The original image of Ms Gula (right) and her image taken 17 years later (left) are presented...

I am visiting Singapore and their art/science museum has a NG special exhibit of 50 best photos. The original image of Ms Gula and her image taken 17 years later are presented in a darkened galley...

I wanted a RF type Canon for so long... G7, G9, G11... they always seemed to fall short of what I wanted and those tiny plasticky peephole viewfinders... YECH! Then came Fuji with the X100 and...

Purchased the small and expensive X-20 bounce unit. It's foot folds up into the body for maximum compactness... so it is idea for use with my X100 and is nice with my XPro1... but I often find that...

My 14 ring is not exactly stiff... and may loosen further in time. Have you contact Fuji about your very, very loose ring? If so, what did they say about it?

And the 18-55 zoom... have to say the 14 is an outstanding lens... just got back from a Philadelphia trip where it came in handy aboard some of the historic warships on display (the incredible...

America IS exceptional for far too many reasons to list here. But here is a thumbnail: 1. we are the only superpower and we have used that power not for conquest, but for stability (not freedom...

I also find that Googling the problem can also provide a quick answer if the manual is dense or unavailable... Had an issue with the Fuji X100 that was instantly solved by asking Google why such...

Yea, for once I was near the front door when the UPS guy sneaked up with my signature-required box from B&H with my X 14mm lens for the Xpro1... so I was there to receive it and not have to drive...

I have had to send a variety of gear, including both lenses and digital bodies, back to their respective importer/manufacturers over the years, and this year was among the busiest (sadly)... and I...

I dig seeing my work in print, on magazine covers especially, or on buildings or websites... especially when their check clears. But what really trips MY trigger is seeing my work on friends and...
