    D800E and cleaning

    I was doing a wet cleaning on my D800 yesterday and as most of you know you're really not cleaning the senor, per se, and instead are actually cleaning the OLPF (ie - anti-aliasing filter) that's sitting on top of the light sensor.

    I've decided it's time we start a wish-list thread so that Nikon engineers can stop by and get new ideas for upcoming cameras. So to start it off, I want my next camera to have a wireless "head's up" display that broadcasts to a special set of glasses allowing you to hold the camera out at...

    The gap continues to close

    It seems like every other week I read an article like this one. Just 20 yrs ago the thing that distinguished humans from animals were the use of tools, then it was empathy and so on but each time we thought we'd found the line an example showed up that crossed it. Now we learn that dolphins call...
