As I mentioned previously, several users, my self included, have run into problems with Adobe’s Lightroom 2.2 update installation some how resulting in exporting to CDs and DVDs failing to work. They would receive the error message, “Disc burning is not supported by Lightroom on this computer. It has been disabled.” Apparently the problem seems [...]

 December, 2008 Lightroom 2.2 upgrade CD Burning bugfix.

I was reminded recently by a rather heated debate that boiled down to a lot of advocating towards specific techniques and technologies, that the how has little to no real meaning in the ultimate ends of photography. You could say in a way that either coincidentally or as a result of the discussion I had [...]

 December, 2008 Photography, Production of Illusions

In the world of digital photography our software is as important to our work as our cameras and lenses. This post comes on the release of Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2.2, an update that for the moment I’d recommend avoiding if you use the built in disk burning capabilities and run Windows XP or 64-bit Windows [...]

 December, 2008 When Software and Photography Collide

First off, Nikon has announced their new studio camera, the D3x. A 24 megapixel beast that stands poised to challenge the Canon EOS-1Ds. Well at least if it wasn’t so underwhelming. The D3x doesn’t have nearly the ISO range the D3 and D700 do, and while it does finely give Nikon a serious studio camera [...]

DP Review, seems to be my favorite source for camera news at the moment, and they seem to be the first in the field with a review of Canon’s new EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS lens. The short of it, the lens compares favorably to other similar lenses in some respects and not so favorably in [...]

Continuous release mode is often thought only to be useful when shooting dynamic subjects that are in motion. The burst of frames in rapid succession gives the photographer a better opportunity to catch the exact moment they are trying for. But there is another, often forgotten or maybe unthought-of, use. Often the sharpest images, in [...]

 October, 2008 Continuous Shooting is Not Just for Action

After what seems like more than a 6 month absence, Travels to the Edge is back on PBS. I just saw my first new episode was recorded, Hokkaido and Honsu Japan. From the little I saw before I decided to watch it later, it looks like more awesome photography. Find your local airing schedule here. [...]

 October, 2008 Travels to the Edge with Art Wolfe is back on PBS

Photokina wrapped up last week, and I have been trying to following along on the news as best I can. The big news to me was that there wasn’t an awful lot of news, outside of the cameras and lenses I’ve posted about previously. There were a lot of rumors about a new 70-200 VR [...]
