In a thread in the Mirrorless Forum, a brief discussion was held about traveling light with a Nikon V1 and an iPad. I frequently am in that situation due to work travel when I can't take my D300. The key to being able to capture RAW/NEF files and edit them on the iPad is the Camera Connection...

Interesting story stating that Sigma would like to make lens for the Nikon 1 system but that Nikon hasn't released the specs. Sigma has released fast (f/2.8) Sony and micro 4/3'rds primes lenses at a great price point (around US$200) that are getting very good reviews. Come on Nikon, competition...

I was going to use one of these images for this week's challenge topic of "Simple", but I though I'd never hear the end of it from James. So instead, I thought I'd share what my travel photography kit consists of when I can't take the D300. Packed: Unpacked (missing the extra battery):

I'm not saying I agree or disagree with Scott Bourne's reasoning in this blog entry - yet, but I think it can and will make for an interesting conversation. Let's keep it civil and it should be fun.

I've had the Nikon 1 V1 for a couple of days with very little time to play with it. But of course, I did take a couple shots around home to try it out. So here are my first impressions. Build quality: Nikon hit a home run here. The magnesium case just feels solid. Design: I also have the the...

Not too much time to post today 'cause work was crazy, but I did take this picture yesterday while walking the dog. I used Topaz Adjust to create a HDR effect. Slight cropping and frame added in Lightroom 4. EXIF: Nikon 1 V1, 1 Nikon VR 30-110, Aperture Priority, f/9, 1/10 sec, ISO 400, handheld

For sale is my lightly used Olympus PEN E-PL1 micro 4/3'rds system. Very, very nice system but I decided that I really wanted a viewfinder and purchased a Nikon V1. My loss is your gain. Included for sale: Olympus PEN E-PL1 Body Olympus 14-42mm Lens Olympus 40-150mm Lens All original cables...

On the fence about a J1 or V1? Just curious? Here are some reviews that might be useful: Thom Hogan Rob Galbraith Steve Huff Mansurovs (Comparison to a D700!!)

Here is the link to the official Nikon press release announcing the Nikon 1 J1 and V1.

Hey everyone. We've started a new Forum dedicated to Nikon Mirrorless dedicated to the Nikon 1 cameras (and anything that follows). I'm happy to be the first mod. So how did I get this honor? I've been researching them for a while and haven't been 100% happy with my micro 4/3'rds setup. So...

Vincent Versace was the guest blogger on Scott Kelby's site yesterday. His blog entry isn't really an article about photography. But it will probably make you re-examine your approach. I bet this paragraph will make you want to read the entire article! "So here I am at the second [Nobel Peace...

My wife and I returned a couple days ago from our Benelux trip with the highlight being our visit to Keukenhof Gardens. If you haven't heard of Keukenhof, it is often referred to as "the most photographed place in the world". Why? It features 7 million flower bulbs planted by hand. A couple...

Another example from the Ed Heaton workshop. I purposely went with a large aperture trying to create a bokeh effect. That worked well but the day was becoming overcast and I think that the image might be a bit dark. With not much of a color difference between the focal point and background...

I went to a workshop yesterday by Ed Heaton. I was looking for opportunities to work on HDR and took this image. My question is do you think the covered bridge area should be lightened up just a tiny bit or is it okay? I've gone back on forth and can't decide whether to make the change or leave...

Adobe has released the new version of Photoshop CS6 along with the new Creative Cloud offering. The Creative Cloud is a subscription based model intended to reduce up-front investment cost. Personally, I'm a big proponent of cloud solutions but I'm not convinced that someone editing a 75MB RAW...

I know I haven't been around that much the last 5-6 weeks so I have to thank Jack, Helene and James for picking up some of the mod duties. And Pete for. . . being Pete. :playful: Since I started a new job in October I've been working out of the house - a lot! It made us realize that I needed...
