BIG NEWS! - the Photography Network


Denis Reggie, Bambi Cantrell and Joe Buissink are creating a new upstart broadcast network for photography lovers: The Photography Network (www.thephotographynetwork.tv).

This venture (akin to HGTV or the Food Network) will focus on providing 24/7/365 TV broadcast quality "webisodes" to entertain, inspire and educate viewers on the inner workings of some of the world's top photography talents, studios, schools and galleries. Viewers will also be able to showcase their best images, network with other impassioned photographers, compete in contests, and interact with knowledgeable experts. Awesome! I really look forward to this!

Nikon D3X - now the Best DSLR Camera


According to DxO Labs, the new Nikon D3X is now the Best DSLR camera.

The Nikon D3X features a very high resolution full-frame format CMOS sensor with 24.6Mpix. The D3X and the Sony A900 are the only two cameras at that level of resolution within the professional D-SLR category, but the D3X features a 14-bit Analog/Digital (A/D) converter.

Nikon D3X definitely takes the lead within its category and will be remembered as the first camera clearly demonstrating more than 12-bit effective depth of information.
