Tag Archives: EOS The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum was located in Cleveland ostensibly because DJ Alan Freed coined the term ‘Rock and Roll’ during his radio years with WJW-Radio in the city and because he helped organize the Moondog Coronation Ball on March 21, 1952 in the city, generally held as the first rock and roll concert.  The Elissa is a three-masted, iron-hulled barque built in Aberdeen, Scotland in 1877.

Love this photo – great idea for a gift, or decor for your house instead of buying something generic at a store. 
You could title this Enigma.  Travel Photographer Richard Davis takes up the recent discussions on the imminent demise of the DLSR and wonders about what changes are also coming in the way we view and interact with images. The 3rd generation digital cameras will not only replace DSLRs, but also allow new ways of consuming photographs. 
Any thoughts on the photographer that hasnt invested in all that kit yet? One side says stick with dslrs while still very exspensive also tried and true. I also feel like its a transitional period and the 3rd gen are not matured but enough to question going beyond my d7000. Love this topic!
It’s a very interesting topic. Trey Ratcliff said he was done with buying new DSLRs last year, then turned around and bought a D800 as soon as they became available. In the end, I think it can only be a personal choice. As I get older my gear gets heavier so I’m looking for a higher ISO rating that will allow me to dump my f/2.8s for f/4s as Syl Arena did last year. I think there’s still a few years left in the DSLR cycle before mirrorless versions really start to take over. In part that’s because people have made such a large investment in lenses for those DLSRs that all will just be sunk if there are no DSLR’s to put them on. Most of us can’t simply replace our entire kit in one fell swoop. I still recall (vaguely) the pain of switching over from Canon’s FD lenses to EF lenses. When I bought my first EOS I had to shell out not only for the camera body but for a suite of lenses as well. That’s what I would face to switch to Nikon or go mirrorless on Canon so I know my next camera body will be that of another Canon DSLR model.  This past weekend we put out clocks back to standard time here in the USA. The ritual that, for many, confirms autumn is here and winter is just around the corner. Around this time last year, I was traveling in Maine and I took this photograph of a waterfall in Acadia National Park. Hiking Much… |
