New Reviews Coming

by adam on August 9, 2010

I picked up a few new lenses lately that will be coming to the pages of Knowphoto. Look forward to the articles on both of these lenses, let me know if you want to know something specific -

Canon 50mm f 1.4

Zeiss 21mm f2.8

We are also working on some new pages that will allow us to profile some work from both my collection but also from some or your collections.  Look for that in the coming months.

The solution was to go out and get a new photo printer. It have served me well and provided great prints and great frustration over the last year. Lately I’ve hit on a problem that I just found a solution to and thought it might be good to get the word out.
