Pano Shots

Hi Everyone,

I was just reading a blog by Jeff over at PhotoWalkPro. His post was on “Did you forget to take your Pano shots? Don’t panic.” It a short piece on faking a Pano (wide angle) shot. It reminded me of a few times that I had done the same thing. One in particular were I had the following three photos…







I turned those into Pano shots and then placed all three onto the same frame. The following photo is hanging in my basement…

Nikon D3 In-depth Review

A very thorough review of my favorite camera (that I don’t own yet :-), the Nikon D3.

Simon Joinson and Phil Askey, April 2008



The professional Nikon D 'single digit' series of digital SLR's started life back in June 1999 with the groundbreaking D1. Groundbreaking because it was the digital SLR that broke Kodak's stranglehold on the digital SLR market and fundamentally brought prices down to a level which most professionals could afford (around the US$5,500 mark). Since then we have seen a steady progression in the evolution of this line of cameras. Whilst the core values of a high quality full-size body with integrated grip have remained constant, the line split into two halves (indicated by the X and H suffixes), one targeted at high resolution photography the other high speed sports type photography (lower resolution but faster continuous shooting). It's been almost three years since Nikon introduced a completely new digital SLR with a new sensor (the D2X) and there had been much anticipation that Nikon's next move would be a full-frame chip.
