I need to get a new tripod
I've come to realize that my tripod needs to be replaced. Like, right now...
This weekend: Two models, broken hardware, and the moon
So I told Mimu that I'd tell everybody she went on a rampage and broke all my gear, because after our shoot, I was down one flash, one lightstand, and one tripod....
Phase One P65+ Preview(via)
Impressed by the 50 megapixel Kodak sensor? How about a 60 megapixel sensor that's actually full-frame 6x4.5?
Introduction to films
It's been two years since I last wrote a comprehensive roundup of different types of film. I've shot a lot more film and I have a lot more to say this time around, so this article is going to be correspondingly longer. Several parts, in fact...
50 megapixels? If you made it like the G9, it would be 500 megapixels!
I talk about 500 megapixel sensors, diffraction, and the new Kodak 50 megapixel sensor.
Con-artists join the war on photographers - Boing Boing(via)
A new scam for con artists is to act like a plainclothes policeman and tell you you aren't allowed to take any pictures and ask for your memory card. Nice.
Strobist: Canon G9: The New Polaroid?(via)

My opinions on Black and White developing
I've tried to research black and white developing as much as possible before starting in on it, ranging from the writings of Ansel Adams to modern notes from other folks. It turns out that there's a fairly small number of absolute, un-arguable facts, so I decided to just post my personal opinions.
Is Full-Frame the Coming Thing?(via)
The real reason why full-frame cameras are so popular? Prestige. At the expense of all other possible digital cameras (notably the DMD concept for a camera)
Fourth of July fireworks
I love fireworks. I always have. So, every Fourth of July, I'm always excited to go somewhere and take some pictures.
The T.O.P. Befriend-A-Forgotten-Camera Challenge(via)
The challenge? Find, buy, or borrow a funky old forgotten camera and run a roll of film through it sometime during the summer.
I've got at least one forgotten camera that would be just perfect for this.
Nikon announces the D700 and SB-900
News from around the web about the Nikon D700 full-frame digital SLR and the SB-900 flash.
My first trip to the Anza-Borrego Desert
My first trip into the Anza-Borrego Desert to take some pictures and experiment with some techniques
A smidgen of hope for some film(via)
The thing about the people who still shoot 8x10 and 20x24 polaroid film is that they are most likely to be able to put their mouth where their money is when they say they'll pay whatever it takes.
