Akvis Sketch Demo

The wife was at work last night so I thought i'd catch up with a little Photoshop wizardry, as per usual I ended up downloading the Akvis sketch plugin for Photoshop and playing around with that instead of doing what I'd started out to do. I think the results are outstanding but you can judge for yourself below:

Lenses and crop factor's

2010-10-10T00:12:00.000+01:00

I have decided the camera world is a little odd, where else would a badge say 18 to 55mm on a lens and actually mean 28.8mm to 88mm once the crop factor is taken into account? If the lens is designed for an APS-C mount then repaint the lens so it actually reflects what it does whilst on that mount.

Impartial review of my camera (Samsung NX10 Hybrid)

2010-10-09T19:54:00.001+01:00

The idea of a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera had been circulating for many years before Panasonic and Olympus announced the Micro Four Thirds camera system in August 2008, so it's not surprising that they didn't have the market to themselves for very long. Back when there was still only one Micro Four Thirds camera on the market, electronics giant Samsung showed a prototype of what
