I am not sure this back and forth of weird analogies is very meaningful at this point. I do have one observation though......I remember when the Df was first announced, and Nikon had the slickest ...

I am not sure about "very likely". It is my understanding that the photographer can sell the image for journalistic use, say, for a Time magazine expose on poverty in America, and not require a ...

I agree, I love urban photography, just not people centric.

I would love to see NIkon be better at this, mostly so they stay healthy, innovate, and sell enough product so that I will always have them as an option. I don't alloy hype to determine my ...

I guess everyone has their own definition of what constitutes exploitation. And there levels of comfort shooting these things. I think many do this to pad their portfolio, to show versatility, to ...

He who dies with the most toys wins the scorn of the executor of his estate.

Normally a good thought....not sure if you shot during the pandemic like you will plan to shoot after.

It seems with advances in technology in many areas, once it becomes too "perfected" for lack of another term, people start waxing nostalgic about the old technology. You see it with LPs, heck some ...

DX was better with Nikon in the past (pre-Z) because there was a range of quality lenses from Sigma and Tamron to fill the voids. Thus far, that has not happened. We shall see if it does.  Not ...

Actually those originals look pretty OK to me. I can see where you would see a difference, but these aren't bad to me for a $300 lens. No comment on the PP, its all taste and there is no right or ...

OK, I chuckled....back then Pappy was affordable. I was on a tour at Buffalo Trace a few years ago and the guide said "Y'all done lost your minds. We never could even give that stuff away back in ...

There are a lot of benefits that have been covered endlessly, and some drawbacks, but for me it was the lighter weight for factor, and being a Nikon guy, the quality of the new Z lenses compared ...

I have used the Fred Miranda forums. They are filled with real photographers, they are cheaper than eBay, and diligent about feedback. You also get market value rather than KEH value. They are too ...

The border works for me.

There are laws in place that prevent truck drivers from working those kinds of hours, at least the OTR ones. I don't think local stuff is monitored in any way.

If I ever felt the need to replace my Nikon Coolpix A, it would be with the Ricoh. The new street edition makes a little less ugly, even. I enjoy these types of cameras, just don't use them very...

Exactly....LOL! Groundbreaking!!! It was like the movie Idiocracy....

Yeah, he kinda missed the point. Part of the charm of this place.

Exactly! That's why I posted this. After all this hardship and screwing around, the article acts as if someone just came up with the brilliant idea of working late! LOL! I really hope that didn't ...

As many of you know, the ports in LA are really backed up, which can effect our hobby. Gear is slow to get here from Asia, want times are long and the holiday season is dramatically affected. In my ...
