Just a matter of time before people like Gaylord make the whole idea of "public monument" an oxymoron?

The stamp publicizes the monument, just as hundreds of other stamps have done over the years. Any photograph or graphic adaptation of any object can be alleged to be "transformative." People who...

It was probably in a display case, disturbing both the lighting and focus. There will be an optical and light distortion, even if you (by luck) focus on the camera body and not its surrounding...

What flash or strobe used for the still shots.  It appears the video portion relied mainly (or entirely?) on available light.  Naturally, at any depth of more than 20', the red or cyan hues...

What Canon model are you using?  Very recently, Canon introduced 1080p60 to its videocams, but they use AVCHD too.  The older DSLRs capture only 1080p30 or 720p60 MOV. It is true, though, that most...

It's not true that all moon pictures look the same.  The moon and night skies offer far more opportunities for unique photographic challenges than all those redundant shots of monuments or...

The NFL has every right to protect the broadcast or image capture of its events.  It's a business.  No one is obliged to attend, either.  But, if juicers find ways to bend the rules, maybe one...

Nero goes Nikon. Look at the fellow, chimping.  Biggest worry: "Will they discredit me because it's only an ASP-C?  Wrong...

What is your experience with the LX7? Your DR comparisons? Is the Q and its lenses worth the added expense? On the other hand, how is it a better value than a basic DLSR kit?

Airline restrictions on baggage weight, plus the sheer inconvenience of carrying around heaps of stuff, are reasons many carry no cameras at all, but only their phones.

How does one set up a...

There is no end to the things people are apt to hate.  As a guiding force, hate tends to compound into more and more grievance, distemper, and hypertension. Hey, think positive! Meanwhile, I don't...

Better a neck strap than a camera fallen to the ground or getting impregnated with lint in a pocket. Is today's fashion to balance one on the head or to carry it in a rolled-up shirt sleeve? Of...

Do the patients really "remember" what is in the photos? Or do they simply see images images and ponder, "Oh, that looks nice," and 5 minutes later not remember seeing the pictures or what they...

Would an Alzheimer's patient remember how to view the photos? Would the patient remember who or what were in the photos, or when or where they were taken?

Wouldn't the device work better if part of a hat or eyeglasses? Hanging on a strap, it is bound to shift or dangle about, aligning with the person's line of sight only accidentally. The tortoise...

Smart phone photographers get less credit than due.  There are apps to defocus photo peripheries, if that is one's key objective. The most highly regarded compact is the $650 RX100 and its $800...

DPR is a good source for ways to be persuaded to over-spend. But lots of money will not guarantee good results. That is more a question of subject, skill, and lots of time. Here are three...

So, if you can claim CEO (aristocratic) status, you can steal billions, keep your bonuses, an serve tiny sentences (vacations, really) in a nice refuge. The (suspended) sentences are far shorter...

Who, without any 4k experience, proclaims with zero credibility ...  Substantiate your source.  Must be a moronic joke or cyber-porn fancy.  4k on a smartphone screen is an absolute and utter...

cs hauser: people who avoid video are simply failures who take refuge in the nonsense that still photos are magically immune from the challenges of editing or audience attention. Any still photo...
