  • Digital non-SLR • Brain dead camera feature design (Canon, Panasonic, Olympus, etc.) April 19, 2024
    I own Canon, Panasonic, and Olympus cameras and they all have the same brain dead, annoying behavior in one respect.

    I have been finding several things about the A6700 that not a single written or video review bothered to mention. No surprise. Every time I buy a camera it is the same. I have searched and still not found an answer to my question so today I asked ChatGPT. It gave this answer which is […]

    I'm here. Check it every day. Most of my older photo software doesn't use Heif. My iPad uses Heif so I changed it to Jpg. All my older photo software products don't recognize Heif files. Canon originally used Heif files. I'll stick with Jpeg. I have a A6500. The A6500 doesn't work with Nissin MF18 […]

Sharp vintage glass – and subject

By David Kilpatrick, on June 10th, 2015

Twenty years ago I was operating one of the first full service digital photo studios in the world. I had already published, back in 1986, the world’s first desktop published commercial periodicals and won the UK Printing Industries Research Association inaugural DTP Awards, in 1987, for this. We’d bought the first Apple laser printer in . . . → Read More: Sharp vintage glass – and subject

Frank’s a definite Alpha Male

By David Kilpatrick, on May 28th, 2013

We shall be sending Frank Doorhof one of our original and rare Alpha Male T-shirts, in black, though I’m not sure we have anything quite large enough to fit him – which goes for his personality too. He’s a great workshop presenter, overcoming technical problems by just cracking on with whatever will work best. At . . . → Read More: Frank’s a definite Alpha Male

The first person we saw in the empty corridors of the photokina . . . → Read More: Alpha in the cathouse….
