    Full Circle - back to Nikon

    I have shot with Nikon throughout my professional career, starting with the Nikon F and progressing through to the F2AS and the F3. I chose Nikon because a camera was an essential tool that you relied on. You did not know if the camera malfunctioned until you got the film back - after the job...

    Fun with the GFX 50R

    This MF camera is designed as a more portable form than the big brother 50S, it is fitting to show off new uses for MF cameras. One observation is the dynamic range of the sensor, it goes back to my days processing B&W film, "expose for the highlights, develop for the shadows". I went out to...

    What the S? and why I still like it.

    This post is about my long term relationship with my S2. Like any relationship, it has had it's ups and downs, with many compromises. I have had my S2 since 2010 as a replacement for two systems, Nikon D700 and Hasselblad CFV. I felt that several factors weighed in the favor of the S as it...

    Just upgraded - my M9 warranty

    I decided to upgrade my M9 with the Leica warranty offer. The cost is reasonable at $411 US and has the added benefit of transferring to a new owner if I decide to sell it. Good for one year from the end of the current warranty which puts it just a month after Photokina ;). The process is...

    Hasselblad lenses on S2

    I recently purchased an used S2 for a good price - well that is a relative term in the Leicasphere. But I do enjoy the handling and performance of the camera as well as the quality of the lens that I have in hand, the 70mm Summarit. Now I currently have a complete Hasselblad system with CFV 16...
