I’ve had the Nikon Z6 for a couple of weeks, tried it out in a couple real-world photojournalistic scenarios and have some thoughts. Over the next couple days and weeks, I’ll be putting the camera through different tests and doing short (shorter than this one) videos with my thoughts. Where I can I’ll also be […]

Open Box – Viltrox Video Tripod
I just picked up the VILTROX VX-18M Professional Heavy Duty Video Camcorder Tripod from Amazon.com. I’m pretty happy, for only $140 and free shipping I got a pretty decent pro video tripod. I’ll give you all an update once I get to use it for a couple weeks. ‘Til then here’s my open boxing of […]

Scanning Through My Photographic History

An Instant Look at the Inaugural – Photographing with the Lomo’Instant Automat
This is part one of two posts I’m going to do on my instant photos from the Inaugural weekend. I took my Lomo’Instant Automat Jardin camera to the Wasington DC without much of a plan – basically just wanting to take photos with something other than my Nikon DSLR’s. Once I got there I realized that […]
Unboxing – Lomo’Instant Automat Camera
Way back in August I kicked in about hundred bucks on Kickstarter for a Lomo’Instant Automat Camera. A couple of days ago I received the bounty. As required per the internet, I filmed the opening of the box. Thanks to the lack of film and batteries I wasn’t able to photograph anything with it – […]
ATL’s “Best” Photos of the Year from our Guests
I asked a handful of our Around the Lens podcast panelists for their “best” photo of the year. All of them came back with some form of “hmm, that’s tough.” That wasn’t ego answering – it’s just like asking a parent “which kid is you “best.” Ok, maybe parents would be able to answer that […]
