It can be done, read on. What kind of things can you do with Actions?

Three Uses for High ISO you Might Not Know

However, there are at least three other reasons you might consider using a high ISO setting when you’re either in a good light situation or on a tripod. Freezing fast motion Use a...

A little bit better: Nikon D810 First Impressions Review

Posted by on 26th, Jun, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

4K is nice for geeky fun (even so 8K). Currently most of the developed world does not even have enough bandwidth to stream it properly. Meaning: yeah, you can shoot it, process it (oh god I can’t imagine After Effects and Premiere rendering stuff for 4/8K before I grow old, but … it’d work), and watch it on your own 4K/8K tely (or put it up on youtube to showoff you did something in 4K, where 95% of the viewers will watch it downscaled on their 24″ Monitors in 1080p …) If one has money to buy 4K tely now, I...

Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD lab test report

Posted by on 26th, Jun, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

The Canon 400/5.6 is I think better and in the ballpark price-wise. http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/ISO-12233-Sample-Crops.aspx?Lens=929&Camera=453&Sample=0&FLI=3&API=2&LensComp=278&CameraComp=453&SampleComp=0&FLIComp=0&APIComp=0 The Canon is also better 560mm vs. 600mm if you add an extender. It doesn’t zoom so quickly though (what with all the adding and removing of extenders). BTW the 100-400 is an antique and a maybe to get replaced real soon (Canon have patented a newer...
