I would assume that the people renting cameras are not even half-serious amateurs or they would have their own camera equipment. Most people who rent things like cars have no clue how to operate...

When digital came in about a decade ago the DSLR was a novelty with no smart phone or mirrorless alternative. Things have changed and the D850 and DSLRs in general are not for 99% of people any...

An expensive modern version of my D70 and D7000 but bigger. You have to look really hard to see anything like a D850 hanging from average Joe's necks. These are pro cameras. Nikon and Canon are in...

The huge teetering, wobbly units Miss Carey recommends above are typically ridiculous-looking, clumsy and unwieldy flashes nobody wants. No surprise here. These are embarrassing. If DSLRs look...

My DSLR collects dust except for using my big zoom to shoot birds on my feeder. I refuse to lug it anywhere off premises. Travelling, I use now just take my X100 which takes macro shots of flowers...

Instagram seems to be for people who actually believe every waking moment of their personal lives is actually relevant and/or interesting to others (Twitter is another such medium that attracts...

Nice impressionist work. That's art.

Buzz: Polite note re: "I could care less" should read "I couldn't care less" - big difference - first says you have room to care less while the second says you have no room left to care, which is...

I agree drones will get boring quite fast. Like digital photography about ten years ago for me, great novelty shooting thousands of pictures that plugged up my hard drive and impossible to look at...

Notice the "banned" countries are right wing dictatorships with lots to hide. Drones might be a pain in free western countries but a powerful tool to film atrocities by evil armies attacking their...

CeeDave: Not 80,000 ft and not even close - try 60,000 ft. The U2, a much later design, can handle max 70,000 ft. At 80,000 you're at the edge of space (0.5psi) where wing lift is less than stall...

Nasa publicity stunt. With all the satellites pointing all over the place Nasa can place itself in orbit with the moon in eclipse any time it wants and get clear space shots. Baffles over satellite...

Nikon is floundering. For years it produced front/back focusing lenses that required setting by owner - quality control? - not acceptable and inexcusable - and DSLRs that were simply too big for...

Blackberry, Nokia and Microsoft, to name a few, were established smart phone makers that died from stiff competition. Blackberry survives as a software company only. Like its cameras, Leica would...

I think nostalgia is a lot about youth and our first attempt at taming mechanical things like car engines and developing your own prints. It was process. Seeing your car run better after you...

Right you are. And yet they had this problem solved with Apollo in 1969. The capsule exposed to full sunlight on one side (+250C) shadow side (-250C). But Apollo had not problems in space or on the...

Nice ad for Sony but resolution C+. You'll see this clip on their ads soon. Any half decent camera will do the same. Sony outbid Nikon and others for the rights and NASA can use the cash. Let's...

Must you post pictures of spiders front and centre on the home page having these creatures pop out in living colour. Surely there are other bugs available. Or was this for shock value. We're not...

Maybe learn punctuation and spelling. How's that for your first tip?

Also, I don't believe posting the panorama twits lowers the bar as long as the readers are here to see serious photography in all its glory from the sublime to the ridiculous. Showing...
