    Can I take my D5200 into Pro Sports Stadiums/Fields/Arenas?

    Well, if you roll up with your 800mm, d4 & monopod and then sit in the stands you'll probably piss off the people in front and behind you. Not to mention, you'll have a hard time parking your trailer.

    Kodak Film Tank Model-B from 1907

    A friend sent me these photos of an old Kodak Film Tank Model-B. It appears to be from 1907 or so and for 3 1/2" film. Unfortunately it looks pretty beat up, but there's a detail I noticed: "Model B-2" seems to be what is being sold on eBay a lot, and the more popular model. I can't find any...

    Chasing Ice

    Has anyone seen this? Incredible! Really cool how he setup 25 remote D200's powered by the sun to do timelapse. They worked without a problem (after some initial timer problems) in -40 degree temps for up to a year on their own. More on that from here: Please no climate change debate...

    Find something creepy, weird, or ridiculous from Google Satellite

    Every once in a while I browse Google maps to see what's around me. Sometimes I find something that, in itself, is an unsolved mystery. ::queue music:: This time I found a house, a rather large one, not far from where the 2013 US open was held (which is some VERY pricey land/real estate)...

    We changed the number of points you receive for uploading photos to the gallery. It used to be 10 points per image, it is now 2, the same as creating a new thread. Sorry if you lost a lot of points, but it was a necessary change to balance things out. Previously a member would be promoted to a...

    Things you own (besides camera gear) that your spouse doesn't get

    I guess my 'things' aren't too bad in comparison to some people, but there are still things I own that I have to remind my wife why I own them (or owned after veto enacted). Here are some of mine: car parts tools (more power?) baseball card collection What are some of your, apparently...

    Anyone have Amazon Prime and love it?

    I do! I can't say how much I love using Amazon Prime. I use it all the time. Not just for the free 2 day shipping, which is sometimes 1 day shipping, but I recently canceled my cable and use the video app for my Playstation to watch movies and shows (I also use Hulu, and an app called Playon) I...

    Dale Chihuly Glass Exhibition in Montreal

    I got a chance to see some (more) Dale Chihuly glass at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. The display was incredible considering the amount of work and precision that goes into each piece of glass. Most of the pics below were taken with my D7000 and either a 50mm f/1.8 or 18-55mm kit lens...
