Some of these photos showing frozen water striking a lighthouse are going viral. They are really impressive! Michigan lighthouses transformed into giant icicle after freezing storm | Mail Online

For those who use a wide angle lens for landscapes, how do you tend to focus? Do you set the lens to focus manually by setting it to hyperfocal or do you focus part way into the scene with auto focus or manual focus? And do you ever use f/16 or smaller apertures? (Yes, I know the smaller...

Reading through a different thread, one of the OP's comments really struck me...he wanted a quiet shutter because he was requested not to photograph during a ceremony (wedding I think) but apparently wanted to take photos on the sly regardless of the church's rules. There is a photographer...

After asking about a Lightscribe DVD burner, @BackdoorHippie mentioned there are some printers which can burn an image to the top of a DVD/CD. Epson makes some, but since I am quite happy with my current Canon printer, I am looking at getting another made by them. Is anyone familiar with...

When I click on the HOME link, I get a prompt that says connection to localhost:9312 failed (errno=111, msg=Connection refused). I don't know what is supposed to be there but wanted to see....

Amazon has two different 50mm f/1.8G lenses advertised. I am familiar with the one, but the other is listed as a Special Edition lens with a price of $276.95--it is temporarily out of stock. Do that many people want to pay the extra money for it? What does it do that the regular 50mm f/1.8G...

Wow! ::what::

Has anyone used Nikon's Right Angle Viewfinder? I'm just wondering whether it is worth the $194 price tag. I can see its benefit especially for macro photography when the camera is really low to the ground. If you have used one, how do you like it, and when did you use it? And any pro/con...

Today is the first time I've ever heard the expression, Small Business Saturday which was a campaign created in 2010 by American Express for people to support Mom & Pop types stores on the Saturday after Black Friday. I know a couple of photographers on Facebook who are trying to get people to...

Does anyone know of a good external LightScribe DVD burner that is less than $100? My LG LightScribe burner blew 2 of my USB ports. :( Alternately, I am also considering using regular DVDs and putting DVD labels on them. Do you have any suggestions which brand of labels are good? For the high...

I still have a lens that I used with my N90s. It is a Sigma AF 70-210mm f/3.5-4.5 APO macro. Granted it is not a true macro lens--I'm not sure if it is 1:2 or 1:3, but will extension tubes work with this type of zoom macro lens? As a telephoto lens, it was pretty sharp--even sharper than the...

I came across this article showing some people who recreated photos based on ones that were taken when they were kids. #TBT: These People Recreated Their Childhood Photos And The Results Are Epic | Elite Daily I have a photo that I certainly wouldn't be caught doing now--I was only @2-3 years...

Does the aperture selected affect noise that is generated when using a high ISO (specifically the D600)? When I shot the theater photos Friday night, I used ISO 1250. Since they had an extra spotlight that isn't normally used, I was able to shoot at @f/6.3 to f/7.1 instead of f/4.5 or wider...

Since my D600 will get shipped back to Nikon today, I'll be using my D90 to shoot my local high school's theater production--TONIGHT (or tomorrow night if something unexpected comes up today)! I've never used a card larger than 8GB in it because that's what recommended, but when I asked about...

Last week when I shot the waterfalls photos, I switched my ISO to the lowest setting possible--whatever is equivalent to ISO 50. The photos turned out fine as far as I can tell. I have 2 questions: 1. Since the equivalent ISO technically isn't ISO 50 but is listed something like ISO LO 1.0...

Is this 50mm lens on Amazon a USA warrantied lens? The link states: The price is $109 which is the price B&H is selling the imported version. Amazon link

B&H posted this blog which states that Nikon is teasing with some of its latest videos. What type of camera might it possibly be? :D

Has anyone seen this image which shows 2 galaxies and a comet? Wowzer!!! There's more info on the photo here. ​

Brides throwing cats This sounds like it is a hit with some people. They actually don't throw the cats--the cats are photoshopped into the photos (I'm a cat lover and wouldn't want them to get hurt). It's a unique idea and a way to generate some additional income. For those who have...
