So I’ve had this camera for two weeks now and I’m starting to dig into a couple of features of this camera and I’m really starting to enjoy this camera. It has some features that I never thought I would use but that have been actually interesting to play with. It’s been a great camera [...]

I’ve been playing more with the Olympus E-P2 in the last few days and shot some test video with it today. This is not meant to be high quality video as I wanted to see how far I could push the camera rather then to set it up to succeed. This was all shot at [...]

I’ve been intrigued by portraits lately and this book has only pushed that intrigue further.
