Photography Review

"Your Experience and Views"

This section is intended to provide photography reviews on equipment, products and services as experienced by you, the photography enthusiast.

There are numerous websites and magazines providing detailed product specifications and test reports. These are fine but they are becoming predictable and are usually prepared by top professionals.

Nothing wrong with that but are you ever left wondering if any ordinary photography enthusiast has actually used the equipment and what they thought of it?

Photography Review Pen Thinking I had enough camera equipment and that I would be very unlikely to change to a different system (yet again), I let all the Micro Four Thirds hype pass me by.

But then I was asked to try an Olympus Pen.

Bother. I'm liking it and I'll be doing a review of the Olympus E-P1 in the New Year. I mention this now because you might like to take a look behind the scenes at the filming of the new TV ads featuring Kevin Spacey and enter the prize draw.

Photography Review - Swarovski photography review
Having found that the longest focal length lens for my camera did not have the "reach" I needed for certain subjects and that it was beyond my financial means anyway, I decided to acquire one of the new Swarovski telescopes together with an adaptor for an SLR camera (Olympus E-System in my case). This gives me the 35mm equivalent of a 3200mm lens when used with my 2x converter.

Digital Recorders and Voice Recognition Technology have come a long way since their introduction in the 1990's. Olympus and Dragon Systems - arguably the best of both worlds - have come together to produce a handy tool for anyone needing to take notes or compose text in an easy, productive way.
