    iPad Camera Connector Kit & Post Processing

    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...

    Article - Sigma: we'd like to make Nikon 1 lenses (Link)

    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...

    Travel Bag

    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):

    Scott Bourne Blog - Why he's leaving Aperture for Lightroom (and maybe Windows too)

    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.

    V1 First Impressions

    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...

    Weekly Challenge June 10 - June 17: Miniature/Small-scale

    I realized today that I haven't participated in a challenge in a while, and with that new (to me a couple months ago) Nikkor 105 VR Micro, I really have no excuse. I have three little figurines on my credenza so I decided to create a triptych of their faces. All processing was done in Lightroom...

    Photography and Life

    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...

    Keukenhof Gardens

    Looking for a good point & shoot

    John: I bought my wife a S95 to take on our honeymoon last year. She uses it in Auto but the images are stellar. If I were to purchase one pocket camera today, it would be the S95 or S100. She took this image in Córdoba, Spain which I was blown away with:
