    New moon - time to get out and capture some moon & star images

    Last night/this morning was the official "New Moon" which means tonight is the perfect night to photograph the moon (what little there is) and of course the stars. Tonight's moon was once very important to ancient peoples due to the need to calculate important dates for religious ceremonies and...

    Lens Dilema

    Here's another shot that may be a better comparator. I took these all at 300mm at f-6, maybe if you did some pixel peeping you might find another lens to be sharper but I'm okay with it.

    Anyone own a Colormonki or iDisplay pro?

    I've decided it's time to end my attempts at calibration. My prints are very close for some colors but others need a little help so I've narrowed it down to the xRite colormonki or iDisplay pro instead of the Sypder. Does anyone on the board use an Xrite product? One of the reasons that I've...
