Colin's iPhoto Snap

I love how kids don’t mind ‘breaking the rules’ and come up with some really cool shots. The iPhone also helps, because Colin can always grab it when we’re running around and take shots. I went to a talk on Digital Photography Future with Alexis Gerard at the George Eastman House, and the access to cell phone cameras is one topic of how digital photography is changing.

I had even mentioned this idea in an article on the future of photography for Element K Journals a few years back … when you always have a camera with you, and it doesn’t cost anything to take images, we take so many interesting images… and think differently about taking pictures.

Doesn’t Colin has a good eye and a fun sense for photos. He’s 12 and we homeschool the kids.

One more for Canon

I wanted to join the Canon equilavelnt of the Nikon Pro Services and found 2 e-mail addresses online… both folks got back to me in under 24 hours (one in just a couple hours) with the info I needed.

I’m sure the honeymoon will end at some point, but I’m still liking Canon. I used to spend so much time on hold with Nikon NPS I finally gave up and started using an independent repair shop.

And the Answer is… the World’s First Digital Camera!

Yes, the presentation I’ve been hinting at in earlier posts was on the first digital camera as developed by Kodak in 1976… it was an awesome presentation and a real peek at history.


This is the mission statement of the ‘Camera of the Future’ project.

Kodak Digital Milestones

It recorded to cassette tape.

As you saw in the earlier posts, I wasn’t the only one geeking out on seeing the camera… what’s so cool about being the photog for GEH is being able to go up on stage and get the cool angles, and to meet the people involved… what a great event. It was all part of a Leica symposium held at GEH.

It was an event at the International Museum of Photography at the George Eastman House and Kodak was involved.

Canon Sports Shooting Tips

Canon has done a nice job of giving some tips on shooting sports. I know people always ask me about things like this and it’s a great summary if you need to do that kind of thing. Check it out HERE

I tell young shooters that getting good at sports helps you with all photos, since learning the perfect moment in a game is really no different than the perfect moment when a portrait subject smiles, or an award is given, or news action is happening.

Here are some recent fun sports shots I did for RIT’s team. They are doing a huge banner with the senior photo below.
