Everyone talks about distortion and reducing size of background items, and while I agree, it can be beneficial to use a super wide. Some examples: This would be a very difficult stitch and...

Another first for me this weekend. I have quite a few more to work on, but here are a few that stood out for me. My favorite was captured hopping over the guard rail and climbing down on the...

I was there last weekend and it was an interesting place to be sure. First time in the park. Fairly difficult to get a composition there. Keeps you definitely on your toes. Look forward to...

Was out and about last weekend. More of a scouting trip as I have never been to the...

If the subject is moving (windy or strong breeze) panos are then usually not an option. Panos shot 3-4 panels wide and up being able to have the same aspect ratio, but able to print much larger...

How often do you print at 40" x 60"? I do it regularly. My opinion is my fact based on experience, trial and error and not reading somone elsese posts or articles. You belive what you...

Bokeh is not ugly to me. It's just another tool in my belt of tools to use. Used properly, it works wonderfully and allows selective focus on the subject, maybe a branch in front of chaos that...

Compared to the same shots shot at F/8 or better. But all looks good at 500px x 400px.....and that is all that matters....right? Now...of course ANYBODY can buy any camera they want and do...

For my work ethic, tripod is mandatory. For your stated purpose (HDR) tripod is even more mandatory. If you're gonna take your work seriously in landscape work, just get used to carrying a...

Questions: Is your monitor profiled? Have you profiled your paper? Are you printing from a color space aware application? What color space are your files in when...

Polarizer, get a cable release, use Live view and its much more accurate focusing. (cable release will give you 1/2 way dodwn focusing in live view.....if you dont use cable release, you have to...

Got mine right when they came out. Been VERY happy with it. I am sure it will serve you well. Roman -- The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious; It is the source of all...

Glossy monitors are not very accurate. The Dell you currently have is one of the better non pro monitors you can get (By pro I mean spending over a thousand dollars for the same size monitor) I...

First off...what you speak of happens on EVERY camera. Even have a few test photos from the local pro shop that fill up about the same space as the picture below. But the files I have played...

7:19 at the Nürburgring Ring aint nuttin to sneeze at. Pretty darned lofty territory if you ask me. And it costed a LOT less than it's competition. Roman -- The most beautiful...

Yep...but sigh...its just from a CoolPix. 12" x 18" is pushing it....16" x 24....MAYBE. But I will never be able to do THIS with...

My shots might have better DR (yes I need that) but the more pixels...the diffrence will show up in my HUGE prints. And that my friend is where the value will be at. Oh...and since my post...

I havent picked up a D800 yet. :) Roman -- The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious; It is the source of all true art and science. ~ Albert Einstein ...

If your sharing on the web (most people) and printing under 12' x 18" (again...most people) than that lens should be fine on the D800. Its a bit like putting training wheels on a Ducati, but it...
