Over the years, I have used many different GPS devices with my cameras. (You can see the evolution here.) My wife and I are leaving in a couple days for a quick trip to Europe. I'm going to try a new approach to Geotagging which I'll discuss below. She is going to use my V2 and 10-100mm...

Should be an interesting Saturday. . .

Wow! This video does my hometown proud. http://vimeo.com/109354891

I realize that camera bags are like crack to most photographers, so in order to be an "enabler" to our addiction may I present the following: From Slickdeals: Best Buy and Amazon are selling the Lowepro SlingShot 102 AW for US$31.99 down from $79.99. This appears to be a clearance sale.

I recently learned that Vello has fully automatic extension tubes for the Nikon 1 bodies that are able to communicate electronic functions from lens to camera including autofocus and auto exposure. I haven't tried them myself, but a very encouraging review has been posted on PhotographyLife...

I had a scheduled search in eBay for a 1 Nikkor 32mm f/1.2. Last week I discovered a short auction on one out of Quebec. Thanks to Gixen I sniped the auction with a single bid with only .04 seconds remaining. The best part is that I was able to acquire my copy for a bit over half of US list...

I had long given up thoughts of owning the 1 NIKKOR 32mm f/1.2 due to the cost: US$899. I had a search on eBay and stumbled on a short auction at a low price out of Quebec and. . . it arrived an hour ago. Not one to delay NAS-related satisfaction, I immediately mounted it on my V2 and took a...

Hockey is notoriously difficult to shoot due to the reflection of the ice. White balance is always a challenge. I shot these through the safety net with my V2 and 10-100mm (non-PD). Ran them through Color Efex to remove a slight yellow cast. The face-off is a crop of approximately 70% of the...

This will make us blush at a paltry Project 365!!!

Rain out in Philly. Our walk was scheduled from 7 am - 9 am and it is raining hard here. No chance of catching the sunrise. Bummer. :(

If you are considering a mirrorless camera, Thomas Stirr has a blog post about a recent trip he took to Greece. On the trip he utilized a V2 and pretty tricked out kit. It is a great read because he describes in detail how he addressed specific situations and any limitations. His results were...

You might want to check out this thread on the Tamron 16-300. The Tamron site is pretty informative. There is a rebate until the end of October in the US - not sure if there is something similar in the UK.

I've always heard very positive comments regarding LensRental.com but I think their new "LensRental Keeper" program if brilliant! "Just rent an eligible item, and then we’ll give you a starting purchase price based on the age of the copy we send you. We’ll even give you a credit for a portion...

I've never shot with the Nikon 14-24, but I picked the Sigma 12-24 up a couple months ago. My decision was purely based on how stellar their 10-20 was when I was still shooting my D300. I haven't used it too much yet but the perspective is spectacular!

So what do you think @jdeg, wanna pick one?

Agreed! I haven't signed up - yet? If we can get a group together again - I'm in. What say you @hark, @BackdoorHippie - up for another get together?

Ran across a very interesting blog post by Scott Jarvie. I won't ruin the entire article but he has decided to change his reliance on Nikon lenses pretty significantly. I first read it as slightly inflammatory with a few digs at NPS. I reread it and have to agree with the majority of his points...

Found a great deal on a 1 Nikkor 10mm/2.8. Sweet little lens. (The seller has one more - if anyone is interested PM me and I'll put you in touch.)

Darn it! I've been seriously trying to talk myself out of the Tamron 70-200/2.8. . . this may push me over the edge! I see some couch time in my future. :black_eyed: More info: Tamron Rebates
