The I.T. Life

Nikon released there new D40x replacement, the D60. This was very well expected, however, not quite like this. The only real change is that the kit comes with a 18-55mm VR lens (as opposed to the regular 18-55), and that the camera also has some fancy technology that “cleans” the sensor of dust. Most reviews I read say this don’t work. Now, I do think that, if I was starting out with a DSLR, the D60, would be a much better choice than what else is out there, and it is a improvement over the D40x, but not enough of a improvement to make me want/need to upgrade, and frankly thats what I was hoping for.

Ok, so I know most of you arn’t photography geeks like me so here is the 30sec elevator pitch on WTF a full frame camera is. a 35mm slr (good old film) captures a image that is 35mm. The actual size of the film. Now, most DSLR’s are not 35mm. The sensor (what captures the image) is much smaller. This means that the lens can are are smaller, the images may capture less detail, etc. I know I hate comparing film to digital, but the point of a full frame camera, is that the sensor is 35mm, which means it captures more of the picture, and bigger sensors are very good things boys and girls. Ok, so here is the gear.

So, basically, here is sonys new 25mp DSLR. It is big, powerful, and 100% pro. It also excites me in ways only gear like this can And this makes me think I need a doctor in a white coat and a padded room. Oh well

I don’t quite understand it but my transparent laptop shot is the most popular image on my flickr account. By a large number too, this has had over 700 views, the #2 shot I believe is over 400. Weird.
