Advertisement Miss me? I hope so. Here’s what I stayed up all night writing.ProPhotoCoalition front page domination? Like A Boss.
So if you read this article about how and to what my passions have shifted, you’ll know I’m kinda into DSLRs now. Not for the video like most everyone else, but for timelapse. Huh? Yup. And not just any kind of timelapse, but HDR (High Dynamic Range) timelapse. So when Nikon and Canon announced new mid-range and top end full frame DSLRs this year, I was kinda Into It. more »So…where’ve I been?What I’ve been up to, besides not publishing here.

Canon’s new EOS C300 digital cinema line - competition for Red or Sony?Canon’s new camera is huge news….for Canon.
Today in Hollywood Canon announced their first truly professional cinema class camera - a Super35mm sized 4K sensor in a small, 3.6 lb body available with either EOS or PL mounts, recording to CF cards with an ISO range of 320 to 20,000. That is the good news. Everything else is either as expected or disappointing, depending on how fanboy hyped up you were about it. Is it a competitor for Red One? Scarlet-X? Epic? Sony’s F3? Read on and see. more »

LIGHTING: Advanced Cucoloris Use Illustrated by a Solar Eclipse

I was a bit stretched for ideas that would illustrate this concept… and then an eclipse happened. Why that made a difference is a very interesting story…
