Book Vol  17  Photography  Going Semi Pro I  Revisiting the Nikon D200

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.

Book How to Choose a Prime Lens  Expanded Edition

Download or read book How to Choose a Prime Lens Expanded Edition written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-04-28 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographer and writer Shawn M. Tomlinson, author of the Photo Curmudgeon column and books, explains in detail the usefulness of prime lenses for photographers who typically only use zoom lenses in this expanded edition. He considers the uses of prime lenses, the advantages as well as the disadvantages, and provides a conversational approach to making the move to this type of lens. Prime lenses are sharper and have less distortion, less chromatic aberration and brighter maximum apertures than zooms, he reports. Tomlinson examines the most common prime lenses, how they are used and what a photographer can expect to pay. "In this short guide, I give you some pointers about what prime lenses do, what type you may need for your particular photographic vision and how to choose what you need," Tomlinson writes in the book.

Book After  The End of the World s Not All It s Cracked Up To Be

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

Book Tales Vols  1 4  In the Mind of the King

Download or read book Tales Vols 1 4 In the Mind of the King written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 714 pages. 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.

Book The Film Photography Book

    Book Details:
  • Author : Shawn M. Tomlinson
  • Publisher : Lulu.com
  • Release : 2016-07-24
  • ISBN : 1365263975
  • Pages : 384 pages

Download or read book The Film Photography Book written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-07-24 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Film is back! And about time, too. We just were getting a little too comfortable with the idea of snapping selfies on our dumb phones at the ends of vanity sticks when film returned to slap us up. Film is not for the faint of heart. It takes serious effort, serious time. It costs money for each frame, from buying the film to paying to develop it or developing it in a film tank. Only those interested in the unique and fantastic look of film will brave this path. The Film Photography Book is for us, those interested in all aspects of film photography from choosing cameras and lenses, to choosing film and subjects, to buying chemicals and processing. The book can serve as a refresher to those who now are returning to film photography after a long absence, and as a "getting started" course for those who never shot film in their lives. It's an adventure, a new Voyage of Photography, part of Shawn M. Tomlinson's Guide to Photography Series, the beginning of a sub-series about film photography. Come on along.

Book Going Pro for  500  Revisiting the Nikon D2x

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.

Book Photography  The Underdog  Reconsidering Pentax

Download or read book Photography The Underdog Reconsidering Pentax written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-10-14 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shawn M. Tomlinson, with the help of fellow photographer Gary W. Ziroli, reconsiders the camera brand that got him started long before digital single-lens reflex cameras existed. In this 12th volume of Shawn M. Tomlinson's Guide to Photography, the author outlines the history of the camera maker, its film and digital cameras, and explains why Pentax is a viable choice for the serious amateur, enthusiast, semi-pro and professional photographer. From the book: "I was a Pentax Loyalist for years, then a Pentax Apologist, then I rather switched that fight it anymore, then I began to re-appreciate Pentax. ... The point was/is that I write these guide books to help the less-than-wealthy budding photographer get the best equipment possible for the lowest prices possible. ... I write this stuff because I know what it's like to yearn for the newest, shiniest cameras and lenses, yet at the same time know that I cannot possibly afford them. I know there are a lot of other people out there who have the same problem."

Book The  Almost  Complete Hitchhiker in Time

Download or read book The Almost Complete Hitchhiker in Time written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-11-07 with total page 684 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hitchhiker in Time columns were the single most popular things ever written by Shawn M. Tomlinson, which honestly doesn't say all that much. All together, they appeared in fewer than 10 newspapers between 1988 and 2001. Well, multiple copies of those newspapers, of course. The highest circulation was approximately 40,000, so not exactly Bob Greene levels. Still, Tomlinson had a following with these columns and to a great extent, they hold up well today. Either that or Tomlinson would like to think so. Many of these columns appeared in chapbooks over the years, but this is the first full collection of them to be in print.

Book Tales Vol  4  In the Realm of the King

Download or read book Tales Vol 4 In the Realm of the King written by Shawn M. Tomlinson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Realm of the King is volume four of my complete shorter fiction collection. It contains some finished stories, but largely it contains a collection of unfinished pieces. Either I got stuck at certain points of the pieces or just stopped writing them. I first collected some unfinished tales in my chapbook titled 'Tales Without End Vol. 1' way back in 1995. It was, in fact, one of the last few chapbooks I published. This volume is an attempt to get most of my unfinished tales into one book. Who knows? I may complete some or all of them one day, or I may not. In any event, they are here for what theyÕre worth.
