Not sure where you are on the planet, but if you're in the U.S. (or visiting), come to Phoenix. We have two very nice camera stores in the area, helpful (not pushy) staff, decent prices. (I'd name ...

Right.  Maybe shoot at f8 or f11 instead of f1.4.

Slightly off topic, but related to your post.  I did a Christmas-themed model shoot last night.  I used a Canon 5DS and an Olympus E-M1X with continuous lighting.  The model liked it better when I ...

In some states, the attorney general will go after cases like this.  See if there hasn't already been a ruling in your favor in your state.

Like you, I need to have both hands available for whatever I need to do. I find the wrist strap awkward. And I don't dare just carry the camera around with no wrist strap. My middle name is...

If the Canon 400mm f5.6L lens is the only lens you've used on the 90D, that may be why you're getting less-than-sharp images. Try some other lenses on the camera. If you go to the link below and ...

I visit my dad in Oregon in the summer, so I take a side trip and photograph in the Pacific Northwest. I live in central Arizona, and October and November are the best months for weather.  I also ...

It is not a bad thing, and you should not be embarrassed.  After all, you've kept the new and/or used camera market humming along with your purchases.  Someone has to do it or camera companies ...

In addition to the reasons other responders have given for the large number of views is this: who it is making it a favorite. Let's say a dozen very popular people (10,000+ followers each) on ...

I would say 2013 to 2023 (okay, 2022) is the best decade.  In the mid- and late-teens, we saw the best digital SLRs getting made.  Panasonic, Olympus, and Fujifilm were coming out with great ...

I disagree.  I have a 5DS and I am delighted with it.

Glad you guys survived the fall from the building. If you (or your puppet versions of you) are in Phoenix at Christmastime, your quest for local cuisine should include tamales.

Agreed.  If you're going to get the EF 17-40mm f4.0L lens, it should stay only on an APS-C camera.  I had that lens and used it on a full-frame camera.  The corners were fuzzy at most apertures.

When going to places that are far away and/or special to me, I try to prioritize ahead of time what I must photograph and what I would like to photograph.  Then I make it a point to take every ...

This is one of the dumbest photographic ideas I've ever seen. My wife would throw sharp objects at me if I hung my camera equipment and accessories on the wall. And I wouldn't blame her.

Okay, so I'm not replying in terms of your question about insurance through PPA. I do want to say one thing about PPA I noticed about 15 years ago after attending several monthly meetings. If you ...

I remember reading somewhere that the average human fart is about a 4mph (6kph) breeze. That means it could propel you forward as you take your picture. So what you need to be aware of is you ...

I usually take a tripod with me on vacation.  I may or may not use it.  If I am flying, the legs go in the checked luggage, as I am sure they could be considered a weapon, so no carrying on ...

It's sad: I actually know what you're talking about.  I must be a fossil.  :-)

I think photography has always been expensive to many people.  I remember when $250 to $350 for a 35mm SLR was expensive.  But that's when I was making $12,000 a year.  Part of the "expensiveness" ...
