5 D Mark II has arrived.
Well I got the call today to tell me that my new camera order has arrived. After about 4 weeks overdue, with Canon failing to deliver as expected, and not sending out just bodies, but mainly kits, which meant they were not thinking about us current canon owners. But it is here now so with Christmas Eve tomorrow I have a trek into the city to Michaels Cameras to pick it up. The Guys in there hav…

Help for Chloe.
A few weeks ago, the plight of young Chloe came to my attention.

Infra Red Photography calibration and diffraction.
I have made some comments recently re issues with infra red conversions. Here are the 2 points explained -
Calibration – Infra red light focuses at a different point to normal light. The old style cameras that you set the aperture on the lense, and focused on the lense, had a red line next to the normal focus line, which represented the mark that you set the focus of your lense to when using i…

“Determination”
Photo by Lindsay Knowles, words by myself.
Lindsay is one of the best MotoX photographers I have seen. This image of Lindsays is just so sharp, you need to see it to believe.
