    My main body is a 750 and it’s great. I remember the 600 debacle (which was a while ago - good to know they’re still fixing units and not just saying “Welp, get a 610"). I clean my sensors by hand every other month, and my 750 shows no sign of splatter. I have a 7000, though, and I have to clean oil off the sensor.…

    Never mind, should have read all the responses...

    Oooh, which Nikon are you using? (Note: I shoot Nikons, so I mean no disrespect,but damn if that isn’t a Nikon prevalent issue)

    With all due respect, every professional sports photographer I’ve worked with shoots .jpg. Most editorial as well. Turn around demands are tight, and most don’t have the luxury of tweaking a RAW file before handing them over.

    I’m so fascinated by this. As I’ve commented on almost every article about it so far, I’m a photographer who does real estate here and there. My photos have appeared on Zillow. I think the main question here is; why did the author feel the need to cite Zillow on all of her pages? Why not Redfin? Trulia? How about the…

    As a photographer who does some real estate I agree with you a bajillion percent. I wish brokers could force Zillow to list THE MOST BASIC information about their property (no pictures) and link to the brokers main site for the listing. I realize my gripe should really be with MLS, but screw Zillow.

    I do some real estate photography. Does Zillow have standing here? They don’t have copyright on the photos, so unless the ones on the blog have a “Zillow” watermark, I don’t get it. Also this strikes me as fair use of commercial material. Any lawyers on here?

    Also, the “few bad apples” argument only ever works for a group of random samples. If police officers were drafted into duty, then you’d expect a few bad apples. Since this is not the case, that argument is high level bullshit and needs to be smacked down (as you eloquently did) at every turn. I’m bitter - I almost…

    I have never been as satisfied by a recommendation as this one. Is there a way to throw some money at the developers?

    Also, I am officially a middle aged parent now, because when I see that image above my first thought is “Oooh I really like that backsplash.”

    As will be pointed out to you ad nauseum, he didn’t direct Deadpool. Still, one of the things I really liked about Deadpool was the direction - I thought the action sequences were really well choreographed and cut together in a remarkably easy-to-follow style that was still energetic.

    This season feels a bit like Arrested Development season 4 to me - sure, everyone is in it, but they’re so rarely together that it makes it a different show. I don’t really care about Dan Egan’s television career, and relegating Ben and Kent to Jonah’s subplot robs the two best characters of screen-time and…

    I’d just like to add that, years ago, I worked at a bookstore that often hosted celebrity events and readings. It was a mix of the usual “so and so is a giant dick” (Nicole Richie) to “so and so is surprisingly friendly and down to earth” (Chelsea Handler).

    I’m thinking five or even six. They’re going to treat it like a new console release so they’ll want to differentiate it from the Pro. But maybe not, since MS can take a much bigger initial loss than Sony can. At least they make money in other divisions. I’m pretty sure Sony is only doing well with the PS brand and…

    That’s cool and all, but those specs don’t mean anything until we have a price point to compare them to. The 3DO was pretty powerful for its time as well, you know.

    I just moved to a D750 (D7000 as my secondary) from a 5Dmkii and HOT SHIT do I love it (aside from build quality). I rent most of my serious glass so I wasn’t really too deep in the Canon ecosystem and heard nothing but great things about the 750's low light ability. I have yet to be disappointed with this decision.

    But what technical failings are present here? Low resolution is not a failing. Other than being behind the times in terms of resolution and speed the game technically works.

    I prefer telling people that, while aperture is the barrier to how much light is let in, it’s best to think about it as how much of the image will be in focus. Instead of thinking about it camera settings first, I’ve always thought of it as image first - you think about the image you want to capture and adjust your…

    Yep. Came here to make sure this happened. All is good. If only Trump would respond “You look like a bucket of shit” and bring everything full circle.
