I have never liked Flickr much... just couldn't stand the navigation. Instead I have hosted my photos at PBase (for a few years) and Smugmug (currently still my main site). I haven't spent any time...

Some people like Oly JPEGs enough that they shoot JPEG-Only, or JPEG+RAW and often keep the JPEG... turning to RAW only when they don't like the JPEG results.  I have owned both Panasonic and...

Dan Margulis wrote a well-known book about L*A*B colorspace called the Canyon Conundrum. The conundrum is this: When you visit a desert canyon of the American Southwest, your brain and your eyes...

I have a Toshiba Flashair card that I got for free with an Olympus rebate when I bought my wife an Oly XZ-10. It is the only WiFi card I have owned. Like the Transcend, it is a shoot now, browse...

I agree. I often complain to my wife about how some photos don't look as good on Facebook as they look on Smugmug or Google +. She doesn't really see a difference, and I'm sure most Facebook users...

Finally! Many may scoff, but I currently use Lightroom to Publish the same albums to both my Facebook account and my wife's Facebook account. These are mostly photos of our family that her friends...

They aren't so bad here, because I think most people just do it for fun and aren't going to put too much effort into cheating when there is no real prize. If you want to see a bad system, our local...

First off... congratulations on your beautiful baby (and your beautiful wife). You are going to really enjoy photographing these two together! Just remember to give the camera to your wife from...

Right... because they encourage you to get too close to the subject. To clarify on Neurad1's comment... It's not the lens, but the distance between camera and subject, as well as the position/angle...

Without samples it's impossible to know what you mean by noisy. What you may consider unacceptably noisy might be very different from what I consider to be unacceptable. Do you feel it is worse...

Of course over time there will probably be tiny cameras capable of using incredibly sensitive sensors and sophisticated software to simulate the results we get with full frame cameras and giant...

Which is really kind of cool, and something that interests me much more than a GoPro. That said I wouldn't want one as my primary camera, but I would love to play with one. Their target market is...

This is the reaction I would expect from anyone who is not into the kind of photography most of us who browse this site are into. The GoPro is a recording device more than a camera. It captures...

@AndyGM: I think you're right... if you want to sell cameras to people who are usually fine using their camera phone, you have to sell them an experience that is familiar, convenient, and social. I...

This is true. I used a Nikon 50mm f/1.8D for about a year before I bought the 45mm f/1.8. The reason I bought the Oly 45mm is because our daughter started walking and moving around a lot faster....

The enthusiast end of the market is another matter, because know there is more to consider than just sensor size or megapixel count. Of course we know those are important factors to consider, but...

In other words... we can market only one technical specification number at a time to non-enthusiast consumers. After years of telling consumers that it's all about the megapixel count, we now want...

In terms of image quality I would put my copy of the 20mm f/1.7 up there with the 45mm f/1.8.  All reasons why the 20mm f/1.7 was the first lens I bought for m4/3. It's still one of my favorite...

I've been shooting mostly with m4/3 since 2010. I bought a GF1 as a walk-around alternative to my Nikon DSLR, but I kept buying m4/3 lenses and eventually the OM-D E-M5. I still have my DSLR, but...

The Nikon seems like it would be the more versatile option for concerts in large venues, but of course that's assuming security will let you in. At least it doesn't look like a superzoom... it...
