Nikon D40 – Still The Best Value For The Money
Tags: d40, For Photographers, nikon
I’ve shot a lot of cameras. From 70’s era Minolta SR series, Kodak “Instamatics”, Brownies, cheap and expensive point and shoot digitals and both ends of the spectrum that Nikon offers.

I appreciate dynamic infrastructure as a service as much as the next person. I love using tools like Xen to build [...]
Time For A New Theme

I try to be tolerant, patient and understanding. I try, very very hard to not let trivial and mundane set backs influence the quality of my over all mood. Today, I have failed.
When you purchase something, you have a reasonable expectation that the item will work as advertised. This gets a little sketchy when buying [...]
