The Podcast ·

2024/03/13

Recently, Nikon acquired RED Digital Cinema and camera nerds went wild. Nikon being a company that has made some positive noise in the photography side of camera tech made a big push to get RED - a cinema monster in the industry. Some say it was part of getting RED its case regarding a patent dispute. I don’t know, but I do think it’s an interesting move and is going to be good thing for us as the consumer. . .eventually.

I Want the Canon RF 100-500mm Lens

The Podcast ·

2024/03/06

A couple of weeks ago I suffered a loss to my photography kit. My old telephoto 400mm lens’ autofocus motors died. This REALLY bugged me as it was right as baseball season was starting. It was also creeping into the warmer weather which is when I focus on wildlife photography. Pissed off and frustrated, I decided to go rent a new lens to handle an upcoming baseball game shoot. I’m glad I did.

2024/03/05

I’m back on ZDNET as of a few days ago. Some of you are probably saying, “back?” Yes, I’m back. Maybe I should clarify. Picture it. Charlotte, North Carolina. 2012. It was about 6AM local time. I was at my humble desk in my humble abode known as “Chateau Ghetto” taking a look at what was going on for the start of Mobile World Congress which was happening in Barcelona, Spain.

2024/02/17

It’s the end of the week and I’m just a wee bit tired. I’m grateful I’ve been busy with stuff. It’s been more and more of the on-going job hunt activity. And when I say “job,” I’m not necessarily meaning a “traditional 9-5” job. For the record, I’ve looked at a few of those, but I’m more and more interested in being an independent creator. Especially since we are continuing to see more layoffs over here. But anyway, the job push continues. Moving on to why I’m writing this today. . .

The Podcast ·

2024/02/02

So yesterday I put up a video regarding content creators being (fairly) paid. I’ve gotten quite a bit of feedback or comments about the topic. Mostly from creators.

Style Bot Powered by Samsung at CES 2024

The Podcast ·

2024/01/14

Most of us knew AI would be the dadgum talk of pretty much all of CES. And I passed on most products touting it. But I did stop and look at this startup which is backed by Samsung. It made me think of my son and his fashion sense. It’s not unusual for me to see him in the mirror trying to figure out what he’s going to wear for the day. This AI mirror from Style Bot looked fairly intuitive. I like the idea that it uses YOUR data input as well as trending styles to figure out what works best for you

First Camera For Creators: Canon R8

The Podcast ·

2024/01/10

I get asked frequently about cameras. Mostly, I’m asked “what camera should I buy?” I always respond with “what’s your budget?” That’s what matters for most people. Sure, there are other qualifiers that matter. Ideally, that’s a question asked by someone looking for their very first camera body. But in some instances, it comes from someone that has an “old” camera looking to upgrade. Makes sense. Camera tech has vastly improved over the years. Today, the masses are learning that creativity really is

I've Been Shooting More Recently

The Podcast ·

2023/12/25

Hello. Hope all of you are doing well. I've had a little more time to shoot and be more deliberate about what I shoot. Here's something I shot several hours ago, actually. I wanted to create more images that could not only be used as prints, but also as jigsaw puzzles. So do you like dogs? Like jigsaw puzzles? Grab one of these jigsaw puzzles I’ve created. Recently, I've had some landscape photography ideas I wanted to capture, but the weather and lighting hasn't cooperated with me here. I'll get
