Perhaps one of the funniest things I saw at PMA 2010, was Joby’s homegrown bike, which looks like it resulted from Lance Armstrong crashing into the Gorillapod factory. While Gorillapods are pretty sturdy for cameras, I don’t think we’ll see Lance pedaling this bike up the Col du Tourmalet in the Tour de France this year. Nonetheless, this is one cool bike.

While evaluating the autofocus performance of the Nikon D3S, I shot with it at a couple of recent Tennessee basketball games. I’m working on a more in-depth evaluation of the AF performance. In the mean time, however, here are a few of the resulting images. All of the following images were captured as NEF files and processed in Lightroom 2. [click to continue…]
So here’s the deal - I’ve got some down time scheduled for about a week, starting March 20. And, while I have some reviews and other content that I have written in advance scheduled for that week, I thought I would open up Photography Bay to other photographers (amateur or pro) to share their thoughts with the rest of the Photography Bay community.
If you have something worthwhile to say that generally relates to photography, whether it be cameras, lenses, techniques, tips, etc., I’d be happy to consider your guest post.
Send your topic ideas via the Contact Form, and I’ll let you know if it will work. If I get too many guest posts, I’ll cut it off based on a first-come first-served basis.
The posts will run between Saturday, March 20 and Sunday, March 28.
For every guest post, I’ll include a short bio with a couple of links back to your site or work elsewhere on the web.
Past guest contributors include Rich Legg, Zach Matthews, Angela Datre and many others. You can hit those links for an idea of the bio, links and general topic ideas.
Again, you can submit your post ideas or any questions through the Contact Form.
Thanks!

The Samsung TL350 is a rather compact point and shoot camera that is sort of the little brother to the Samsung TL500. It features a 10MP CMOS sensor, a 5x optical zoom and a 3-inch VGA AMOLED screen. In terms of its specifications, the TL350 is packed full of features and killer numbers across the board. [click to continue…]

onOne Software just announced the availability of free versions of its PhotoTools 2.5 and PhotoFrame 4.5 Photoshop plug-ins. The Standard versions of each will set you back $160 each; however, the free versions are based on the standard versions, only they have less content. These are free forever though – unlike the 30-day trial versions you see out there.
The plug-ins are compatible with Photoshop CS2, CS3 and CS4. I don’t see any downside to this deal from onOne. So, head on over and check them out at http://www.ononesoftware.com/free.
