Photo of the day October 6, 2009 Nikon D2h

What a mere 4 MPX can do. Shot in May of 2005 with the Nikon D2h and the 70 to 300 Nikkor. These tulips were in my front yard. Man, I miss spring already!

The Buzz

It's all over the internet. All sort of rumors as to what camera will be brought out by which company. It never ends. Most people cannot get full use of what they have but still want to upgrade. This will make them better photographers, they erroneously believe. This will never end until they come to the realization that people take the photos using a camera that is a tool. This tool must be mastered before a new one is sought. I realize that sport photographers are always looking for a faster camera but there were many superb sports photos taken in the old days of manual focus and manual exposure. All these automation increases mediocrity.
