Last time I looked, there was a Sony store in the Town Center Mall in Boca Raton FL. It's just a couple of feet from the Apple Store.  Guess which one is always crowded.

The lab needs 'wall art' just like any other business. Put the copyright stuff in the lower corner if you like -- but there's little likelihood that anyone is going to copy the print and try to...

An air-cushioned stand can save you from a painful pinch or a disconcerting 'crash'. I wouldn't dismiss them so quickly.

I bought a few -- can't recommend. This one is preferable http://www.amazon.com/Polaroid-Triple-Minolta-Digital-Cameras/dp/B005FRI5CS

I've got my A2 outfit up for sale in For Sale section. No hits. Yesterday I took my friend out for a lesson on his new Fuji s8400W -- it made me appreciate what a groundbreaking camera the A2 was....

I had an extensive Manfrotto rail system in my 9' ceiling studio. Worked great for table top and repro work. Of course there were problems using large softboxes and umbrellas but no more than when...

A nice clean 500mm Rokkor MD (manual focus) with a dandy tripod mount on the lens. Check it out at: http://www.ebay.com/itm/171048332758?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

The 500mm Minolta MD reflex pictured is up for auction at ebay.

Anyone know of any labs that use CFL for copy work? High end? How about this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMA7oWwYN0I Polarization does eat up huge amounts of light -- which is why the Balcar...

If you're serious about doing this kind of work to earn money, invest in the right equipment from the start. Electronic flash and strip lights (preferably capable of being fitted with polarizing...

I can't comment on the Fotodiox (with corrective lens for infinity focus), I got mine from a place in Brooklyn -- looks identical. Good fit, but poor image quality. I also got one without a lens --...

Have a good time experimenting, but I think once you do any significant shifting or tilting you'll find that you will get image cut-off due to the depth of the throat of the camera (distance...

I bought the above lens (a manual focus 500mm f8  Rokkor-X that had been adapted for A-mount) and it does in fact focus to infinity. It appears to have had a T-mount grafted onto it. Not as easy to...

Any boom can tip over any stand -- just a matter of how it's balanced. Sandbags, water weights, shopping bags filled with soup cans... Real C-stands are heavy and not very portable. They stow away...

I had the 100-400... sold it because it was too big and heavy. I tried the old MF 500mm -- great lens: small, light, sharp and cheap. Then I found how useful SS was with a 500. Focusing wasn't a...

Some might even argue that PP skill has become as important (if not more) than shooting skill. I recently attended an 'art show' held in my community. The Best in Show for photography was an 8x10...

Lots of great pictures taken with both Sinars and Deardorffs. Neither of which sold as many as Kodak. f8 and be there.
