This is a huge coincidence, but I was over at steep and cheap a little while ago and they had this bag on for $208.
One of my favorite articles from Popular Mechanics could have introduced the ultimate fly fishing accessory. I can’t understand why it never took off.
John Calipari, is that you?
Just got back from Phoenix, where I had the honor of seeing him loose his last game at Memphis.
Just like any tool it’s a matter of knowing how to use it. WP point and shoot cameras can do an adequate job of capturing what’s in front of them, sure. Snapshots and such. But for large, publishable work they’re not the sharpest tools in the shed IMHO.
You are absolutely right, but I shoot photos for my own enjoyment, so it is nice to be able to get the most of the tools at hand.
Thanks Neal.
Very nice article and slide show Neal. I’ll have to try some of the techniques with my Pentax Optio W30. It takes good “snap shots”, but I really haven’t tried anything fancy with it. I use it mostly on the kayak, so I don’t have (or take) a lot of time to figure out settings. Here is one image I took with it that I thought turned out nice.
One problem I am having with it is overexposing light areas when I am shooting into dark backgrounds. You can see this, to some extent, in this picture where sunlight is hitting some of the leaves and branches.
Here is another shot that I like, although it lacks any refinements.
