Not really sure what to say about this, so I’ll let the work do the talking for itself. Taming Light – a set on Flickr

 September, 2008 Taming Light – a set on Flickr

I can’t say it’s unexpected, in fact it’s been long awaited, and if you even remotely follow what Nikon has been doing with their cameras the idea that Nikon was moving away from their old in-body auto-focus system towards an in-lens system has pretty clear. All new professional glass has been made AF-S with silent [...]

 September, 2008 AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G Announced

In my previous post (here) I mentioned that I hadn’t found any information on whether the 5D Mark 2 would have an AF-On button on it’s new designed battery grip. My concern was that even though the grip isn’t compatible with the old 5D, Canon would inexplicably leave the control off like they did on [...]

 September, 2008 5D Mark 2 Battery Grip, AF-On, On

You snooze you lose, or you get there late. DP Review has finely posted their sample gallery for the 5D Mark 2. People fearing for image quality due to the increased resolution and smaller photo-sites, fear no more. Quickly looking though the last 5 frames, a still life scene shot at ISOs all the way [...]

 September, 2008 Exclusive Canon EOS 5D Mark II Samples Gallery: Digital Photography Review

This one will be short. I recently saw a site produced by the Boston Globe, that explores a single topic regularly (I think 3 times weekly) though the best images that they can find from their photographers and that have been published via the wire services. The images generally are awesome to say the least. [...]

 September, 2008 The Big Pictures

One thing I don’t frequently follow is the point and shoot market, but it’s hard to not to ignore it sometimes. Canon’s PowerShot G7 and G9 have found homes in many professional photographers bags. The Sigma DP1 hoped to redefine the high end point and shoot market, by bringing dSLR sized sensors to P&Ss. And [...]

 September, 2008 Point and Shoot Roundup

More from DPReview on the Canon 5D Mark 2, they’ve posted their hands on preview. One thing that looks improved is Auto ISO. According to DPReview, the new AutoISO attempts to maintain a shutter speed of at least 1/focal length. While this seems a little better than the auto ISO in canon’s previous designs, it [...]

 September, 2008 Canon EOS 5D Mark II Hands-on Preview posted at DP Review

Following hot on the tail of Canon’s new EOS 5D Mark 2 is the announcement of a new pro grade wide angle lens, the EF 24mm f/1.4L II. Most interesting in this lens, is the inclusion of a new coating system to improve optical performance. Unlike traditional anti-glare/anti-reflective coatings, this new lens debuts a new [...]

 September, 2008 Canon 24mm f/1.4 L II USM lens: Digital Photography Review

  It’s official, Canon has announced the EOS-5D Mark 2. Featuring an unbelievable 21MP sensor that has an ISO range from 50 to 25,600, the same as the Nikon D3 and D700, as well as a full HD 1080p30 (1080p @ 30 frames per second) movie mode. Other key features include a new AF system [...]

 September, 2008 Canon EOS 5D Mark II: 21MP and HD movies: Digital Photography Review

If you’ve been online and around for the past few days you’ve probably already seen the announcement for the Sony Alpha a900. Their brand new 24 megapixel full frame digital SLR body. The real shocker if anything is the price tag, at $3000 a price equal to that of the Nikon D700 and less than [...]
