Had the $18,000 camera been in a $100 hard case it would be happily adorning its rich owner's neck. Body slammed or not.

Good news: the guy's Fabergé Eggs were OK. The camera broke their fall.

You have an $18,000 asset and you don't spend a $100 hard case for it? Idiocy.

Take a look at Surplus Shed if you want a DIY solution - i have gotten tons of stuff from them ( they also happen to be 15 miles away from my house which is very dangerous for a tinkerer ) .   I ...

Correction, they SAY they offer options that disable the collection of the data. Unless you do a security teardown on the device, and see what its actually doing, you are trusting what the vendor...

In the end, as the drone uses GPS, it can still be made to honor prevailing laws. The next phase of this evolutionary battle will be the need for your drone to update no-fly restrictions on-line...

VadymA. I think it was not a 6 hour shot, but rather 6 minutes, a ~6 stop difference. Today its very easy to create synthetic exposures of days, weeks, even a year. I have done this with time...

A finite conjugate lens assembly, as found in a flatbed scanner or microfiche lens, can easily do 3-6x closeup photography. They cost virtually nothing and all you need is an extension tube and ...

So after you have been fired, do you still have to show up at the Kangaroo Court Extrajudicial Hearing?

Your camera may already have the ability to do what you want - automatically - by enabling highlight protection on JPG and shooting RAW + JPG. When I enable highlight protection, the camera under ...

:-) For a mass market product, every campaign is like taking a page from Idiocracy.  "LG Crystal Clear Lenses - they have the electrolytes photos crave."

If you visit the LG site, you find the original: New LG Lens outperforms burlap in both color rendition and micro contrast. As you see, the burlap lens does not perform as well as the new LG ...

Indeed. I guess I get weary of the ETTR, ISO invariance, blah, blah, blah because its nothing new. Those who will shoot every image in RAW are also likely to intentionally or subconsciously manage ...

Sure, people in here love equations.  I like equations too.   But I find they are rather useless in the field. You can also get an app for your phone.  which makes life easier.  Like HyperFocal Pro ...

One improvement.   Take a very thin, flat steel washer that would fit around the periphery of the shutter button.   Attach it using whatever adhesive you want.   So now you have a slightly ...

Somewhere Marc Newson is curled up in a ball saying "NO!  NO!  NO!" with that said, good work.

"If you feel that your current camera is a better match for your needs and skills than the one it replaced, that's thanks to, not in spite of, the efforts of the marketing department. "
