    Long experience that I hope not to experience again. On or about three weeks ago, give or take I was going to transfer from my bed to my wheelchair when my right knee gave out. Now mind you this was my better knee or at least better than my left knee, both knees, ankles, shoulders, left wrist...

    Just received Refurbished D5100

    I just got in my Tripod

    I bought the Manfrotto 293 with the Manfrotto 494 Mini Ball with QR Plate. The worse part is I have not felt like using. The Monsson in Arizona is a real downer for someone with over 70% throughout my body. However, I know I will like this tripod as I have had Manfrotto Tripods before. I did...

    Greetings from Arizona

    I bought my first serious camera while in the Army serving in Germany, not really knowing much about the name brands I purchased an Olympus Half Frame 35 mm film camera in 1970. This camera served me well until I realized there were more options to select from and all I had to do was get off...
