I’ve been trying several Nikons lately (again) and wanted to talk about one of my favorites, the F2. The F2 was released in 1971 and manufactured in several variations until 1980. Like the F, the F2 was built as a system camera. Initially, the lenses made for the F worked the same way on the […]
The nightmare of the plastic and polystyrene waste scattered around the city does not seem to be getting any better. There seems to be little political commitment to tackling this problem and without that, it will never go away.

I listened to several of his podcasts in preparation for this article (which is the fourth installment of my interview series). There’s a lot of value for […]
When I’m going out with the camera, I want to make sure I get the best shots possible. This means taking away as many distractions from the camera as I can, but still retaining all the control I need to get those photos. Over the years I’ve learned that auto-ISO is your friend, and here […]
It was such a gloomy morning, but the photography session had to go on! By the time we headed across the bay to Mumbles, the sun was out, the coats were off and we were ready to take photographs of an area that we had not ventured before! Armed with the Olympus EPL8 and the […]
