Marty old bean. Let me be simple and to the point. There are 7 billion people on this planet and only 311 miilion of them are in the USA and subject to the laws and religious lunacy of the USA -...

No - that was us. If you are going to berate someone for their history knowledge, telling a Frenchman that he plundered Africa and Asia is ignorant at best. When it comes to us Brits, we plunder...

Intolerant, parochial and narrow-minded. C

Amen (haha) to that. I'm never very enamoured with Photomatix with all sliders to the right. But you are right on the composition - totally nailed it.

Great to see this - inspirational and may affect my holiday plans to be closer to the UK than previously - especially as Irish gastronomy is making a resurgence.

FWIW it is fun, seriously, and I love the colour rendition, but it is soft. I use it on a GX-1 occasionally and it does great service in bright conditions - you will like it if you think...

Yet in the UK it seems to sneak in at £740 - it actually seems that they used a conversion other than the normal $1 == £1.

It's called "shed painting" - it's simpler, more people can grasp the limited feature set and everyone has an opinion on what colour the shed should be painted. The 4k beast addresses an area of...

I have the 1st edition of this. Yes, you could use it for birding, but the focus is not fast, it uses a 2 speed focus knob with about 5 turns from near to far. It works for static things like a...

The sensor data is processed anyway to generate a RAW file - the file contains bytewise data representing longs, shorts and other data that comes from the A2D as well as the control signals sent...

"This shot, taken in Scotland, won Rodriguez an Honorable Mention in the Performing Arts category in the Mobile Photography Awards. "It was a quick shot of wandering musicians playing music on the...

@Nerdlinger - It takes me 32 mins to drive from Glasgow to Edinburgh. According to Google it takes 28 mins to drive from Kilrush to Loop Point Head and then you have a walk.

I never realized you...

Aside from the fact that Loop Point is a European Destination of Excellence - an award given to areas of outstanding beauty, the author stretches the definition of back yard so thin it's...

I've looked at all the linked portfolios. Noting struck me more than the Instagrammed feel of saturation and contrast sliders, "square format == cool" and the feeling that they capture a passing...

@Manuel - but feel the quality of the bokeh on those MTF charts!

I have full frame and u4/3 kit - I'm loving the possibility of this 42.5 lens - just one more area where I can take either kit out and not be concerned that I may not have an ideal lens for the shot.

@wakaba - you forgot to mention that u4/3 abused you as a child and is responsible for global warming.

The sensor is not "tiny" - smaller yes, but tiny? I shoot with a full frame and I'd say u4/3 ...

This isn't the first, but almost every other attempt has sunk without trace and been swept under the carpet. Currently the number of selling Intel based phone models can be numbered on the thumbs...
