The other night, I wrote about major rebates being available at B&H. Want to go directly to your brand of choice? Take a look at this.
What Do You Want to See in the D700 and D300s Successor?
Photographers tend to shun compact cameras of all stripe. It’s easy to understand why: they’re much slower than SLRs, their sensors are much smaller, and they have inferior picture quality and low-light performance. Still, camera makers keep producing high-end, premium compacts with features aimed at appealing to skilled photographers. They can’t replace SLRs, but in some cases they can augment them, thanks to their small size and flexibility. That’s the thinking behind the Canon S95, a high-end compact camera brimming with manual controls and unique features.
Major rebates are in effect for the holidays at B&H Photo.
We believe that the Canon 7D and 5D Mk II complement each other very well, but questions have arisen as to which one is better to get all the shots on your wedding photography checklist. Go onto the most popular photography forums and you’ll see this question appear at least three times a month in one way or another. We’re aware that in some ways this is like comparing apples to oranges, but it is a subject that is well worth exploring. David Ziser concluded that he’d rather go for the 7D; but is that right for you? We’ve noticed readers typing this into the search bar of the site—so since the 1D Mk IV is out of range for many of you, here’s your answer.
Maybe this isn’t new, but I sure haven’t seen this before and thought I’d share it with all of you. KenRockwell.com appears to have a hidden easter egg in his site detailing where babies come from. It’s actually quite hysterical and as a fellow blog editor, I’ve got loads of newfound respect for Ken as I’d never have the balls to put something up like this. I wonder if I win a prize for finding it: like one of those Nikon cameras he loves 🙂
The Sigma 70-200mm F/2.8 EX APO DG HSM OS for Canon mount has very impressive stabilization.
At Comic Con, I was given the opportunity to photograph a lot of talented and wonderful people dressed in their cosplay garb. Jessica Caitlin Foley was one of the attendees that stood out the most. She hails from Virginia and dressed as the Marvel superhero Firestar. As per recent reader requests, this is the beginning for a new type of posting here at ThePhoblographer, detailing Field Tutorials and how the equipment is used in the field. My apologies beforehand for the lack of Strobist photos and diagrams but we will be more careful in the future to do those.

At the end of the summer, I needed a break from my normal reality. I had to get away. I had not done any photography out of town in a LONG time so I took some gear with me. It was essentially my first vacation with my Nikon D90. On this trip I learned a little bit about travel photography. I got to shoot and entire day in historic Ellicott City, MD and ran into some thought-provoking situations on this expedition .Experience is a good teacher.
