Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photography has gone through at least seven revolutions since it began. Each one has occurred at some crucial moment in history and has changed the way we make photographs. The design of the Nikon F4 was the basis, the prototype for all DSLR cameras to come. If you use a DSLR at any level, it's granddad was the F4. That said, the Nikon F4 still is a film camera and that requires a different mindset that shooting with a DSLR. With film, I take my time. I know the images are going to be - or at least are meant to be - special. Since I am shooting film with the Nikon F4 in the second decade of the 21st century, I also know the images are going to be different than what most people shoot. The Nikon F4 is such an elegant work of art itself, it helps me to think more artistically when I create photographs. It's just one of those few cameras that is beautiful to behold and a joy to use.

This book was released on 2018-06-09 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ÒJust like me to never have any money when the end of the world comes, Ó thought Martin Fahy as he walked through the bitter, ceaseless rain. He laughed slightly and wondered what he was going to do now. Sure, he had been the one who always knew The End was coming soon, but he just couldnÕt convince anyone else. He wasnÕt a religious fanatic or anything and his predictions of the coming doom had nothing to do with apocalyptic visions or cultist beliefs. It was based largely on his continual observation of scientific predictions. And now, it all was happening. Fahy realized what heÕd always said was his prime philosophy still was true: The only way out is throughÉ

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Be wary, ye whoÉ Sorry. Just wanted to warn you up front that some of these stories donÕt have conclusions. Most of them do, but some I just never could finish. Oh, yeah, and some of them are parts of series that are here published alone because I just was unable to find the other stories. I swore when I was young that that would never happen to me. It did. IÕm dealing with it. The reason that such stories Ñ those without endings and those for which there are other, connected stories Ñ is that, well, IÕm getting old. I wanted to collect the majority of my writings before IÕm dead. Some of these are very early stories. The earliest, I believe, is ÒCounterterrorist.Ó Yes, the main characterÕs name is Jack, but it was written many years Ñ decades Ñ before Jack Bauer, counterterrorist, made it to TV in 24. That should be obvious, but I thought IÕd mention it. Just try to enjoy the stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outside was crazy. The thick, coming storm weighed me down. It could come any minute: thunderous, hurricane rain, followed by all kinds of hell. I dashed across the lawn, into The Lab and up the stairs. The bookcase was locked. Most of our books anyone can look at. Some, we donÕt think would be wise to let out. I fumbled the key chain, looking for the tiny key that could open the door. I managed to get it near the keyhole when the electricity died. Cara may curse my pipe, but right then, I think sheÕd have been glad I had a lighter. The lighter helped me again. The deep, old books were a window to the past. We had read few. That would entail things like dying horrible deaths. Instead, we had a collection of Òabout books, Ó essays written anywhere from last year to a thousand years ago. The one I was looking for was deep red, 'AichlanÕs Deimos.' In it I hoped to sort out how to send Xith back to wherever the hell it came from before it ate Lily Dale, or whatever it does.

Download or read book Retro Camera Buying Guide Getting Serious About Photography On the Cheap Expanded and Revised written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot has changed since I wrote and published this first volume of what became this guide series. One thing hasnÕt. I still have the same enthusiasm and joy in photography I had way back at the beginning of the series. I have a lot more knowledge and experience now and, occasionally even get close to taking good photographs. ThatÕs the thing, see. I didnÕt know a lot when I originally wrote this guide. I had been working in photography since 1982 professionally. Everything I knew, pretty much, was self-taught. In general, thatÕs still true. ThereÕs no need for you to do it all by yourself, too, though. This book and this series are meant to help you get going with the basics fast. Yes, OK, I tend to relate my own experiences, but that, too, is meant to help you avoid some basic mistakes I made. And, perhaps, I write in a tad too friendly manner, but think of it as sitting down with me to have a friendly talk about a passion we share: Photography!

IÕm glad he did.Ó ÒDo you think weÕll make it?Ó Wanekia asked, obviously scared. ÒDo you think theyÕll come after us?Ó ÒWe will make it, even if they do come after us, Wanekia, Ó Chloe said. ÒI donÕt think theyÕll pursue us all the way, anyway. ItÕs a long way to go.Ó ÒIs Father going to be alright?Ó Wanekia asked, looking back at Martin again. ÒYes, of course, Ó Chloe said, not sure of her words. ÒHeÕs been hurt worse before. The skinner is working.Ó ÒIt wonÕt even estimate how long, though, Ó Wanekia said. ÒItÕs done that before, too, Ó Chloe said. ÒHeÕll be fine. We just need to get him someplace safe.Ó ÒWe could have gone back to England, Ó Wanekia said. ÒWe couldnÕt, and you know it, Ó Chloe said. ÒThe way things are going, they could trace us through Time and then weÕd drag the Burnsides into this and theyÕd die. I wonÕt do that."

Download or read book Vol 17 Photography Going Semi Pro I Revisiting the Nikon D200 written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The designers at Nikon in 2004-05 were looking for a way to reach the semi-pro photographer. The semi-pro is someone who has another job but shoots photos Ñ often at weddings Ñ as a part-time job. TheyÕre sometimes called weekend warriors. They tend to be serious and dedicated, but they had no need for the pro digital single-lens reflex behemoths like the Canon EOS IDX Mark II or the Nikon D5. What they needed then and now is a DSLR camera that is built strong, is always reliable and can handle their workload. That led to the first true semi-pro camera from the company, the Nikon D200. The D200 may have been overshadowed by its successor, the Nikon D300, but itÕs still a great camera. A great camera that can be had relatively cheaply, and that makes it an even better camera.
Download or read book Vol 18 Photography Going Semi Pro II Revisiting the Nikon D7000 written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-03-14 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nikon D7000 was aimed at the Enthusiast photographer when when it was released in 2010, but it proved to be such a tough, reliable camera, it became the darling of semi-pro photographers everywhere. At 16.2 megapixels, this APS-C/crop frame DSLR has great resolution and handles nearly every Nikon lens ever made. In this volume of Shawn M. TomlinsonÍs Guide to Photography, the Nikon D7000 proves itself to be one of the best mid-range DSLRs available for the budding photographer at the Enthusiast and Semi-Pro levels.
Download or read book Going Pro for 500 Revisiting the Nikon D2x written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A while back, I wrote a guide to the first truly professional and practical DSLR camera, the Nikon D1, titled: Photography: Going Pro for $200: Revisiting the Nikon D1. That volume proved popular and I hope it helped some photographers to get started with their first pro DSLRs. The aged D1 may not have the megapixels of modern cameras, and it certainly has some frustrating menu items, but it is a fun and inexpensive way to get your hands on a pro DSLR without spending a lot of money. This book recently was expanded for print and adds details about the Nikon D1x and D1H. The thing is that, if you are like me, once you've shot with a pro DSLR, it makes you hungry for more. But those current models - the Canon EOS 1Dx and Nikon D4s (the latest as of this writing) - still have huge price tags that can bring tears. The best thing is that, used, you can put your hands on a D2x for less than $400 and get one of the best lenses Nikon makes - the Nikon AF D 50mm f/1.8 - for another $100.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have been somewhat reluctant to write about the absolute best digital single-lens reflex camera I have ever used, the Nikon D800E. The reason is that I like to write about older cameras that have become cheaper to buy and use for the frugal photographer. Although some of the cameras I have written about were terribly expensive when first released, by now they are reasonably cheap. For example, IÍve written books about the Canon EOS 1DS/1DS Mark II, the Nikon D1 and the Nikon D2X. These all are pro DSLRs and as such were released at prices ranging from $6,000 to $8,000. By now, however, the most you will pay is around $400 for any of them. In a few years, the Nikon D800E, too, will be much cheaper and an obvious choice for the frugal photographer. No matter the price, the D800 and D800E are two of the best DSLRs ever made. Either will change you as a photographer in fantastic ways.
