So you want to try your old FD lenses? Fine but remember it is totally manual. Yes, we actually had to set everything and focus too. How did we ever get a shot? Yes the hummingbirds all are cropped, the last one 100%. Yes hand held. Yes a tough ta...
I have an Apple IIe emulator for my Mac and wanted to start with an image I captured, scale it, convert to black & white and somehow end up with that image saved to a disk (emulator saves files representing 5 1/4" floppies). I wasn't able to figure o...
The African dust hasn't reached Kansas in a large amount. Perhaps it won't.
I had to share this one with you. There is a park near where I live in Ohio and every year these birds breed there. I use my 75-300mm with a vivitar 2X to make a good 600mm shot. I had taken the shot and sharpend it a little in Corel After Shot Pro....

While using the telescope last week I thought it would be interesting to also see how a Canon long lens performed for lunar photography with and without extenders. I believe the focus is dead on with these, for the EF 800 combo I used AF where possi...
Without sports to shoot, I have been delving into other areas of photography. The weather was finally nice during the evening and I used my 1DX III with a T adapter and my Celestron CPC 1100 Edge HD telescope (11" SCT type). It looks like something...
Not the greatest image because the background is disturbing. Shot with the old 40D. We met the heron at a water castle and the only tele lens we had in the bag that day was the 55-250mm kit lens, the newer version, not availabe as the 40D was produ...
Yes, that is the right way round... it's not the 60D. I had purchased a Canon EOS D30 as a historical artifact and found that it took excellent images. So when a D60 came available I decided to lash out and purchase a unit in excellent condition ...
