  1. <p>I had some old Nikon lenses so I was considering a Nikon digital. But after taking them into a camera shop and discovering that the AF did not function, I then considered a new Canon system, which I ended up buying. But as stated above, if you are considering both systems, put your hands on each and try them out.</p>
  2. <p>The only photos that are displayed on this page are samples chosen randomly (with relatively high ratings), featured photos/portfolios, and editors picks. For recently rated photos you must go to the TRP (Top Rated Photos).</p>
  3. <p>Luca - That's why I stopped running. I was running alone and losing.</p>

    <p>Seriously, the ratings system, and those that game it, should not be taken too seriously. But we do need a way to showcase good work and encourage good critiques. Josh and company say they are working on a new system, so let's hope for the best.</p>

  4. <p>I have the Velbon Ultra Luxi SF with the PH-353 ball head (this is now a discontinued item). Very lightweight (2.1 lb), cheap (latest price $80), extremely compact for packing, but is not going to withstand wind or any other source of vibration. I bought it mostly for travel purposes, but I'm also using it more routinely until I can purchase a more stable tripod for regular use. But for travel, backpack, or other uses where weight is an issue, I would consider the Velbon.</p>
  5. <p>"You do realize most of us own and shoot multiple camera makes? Unless I just bumped my head, my inter vision remains the same whether composing with a Canon or Nikon VF."</p>

    <p>Are you kidding? I think the majority of PN people use only one camera (or camera make) in a given period of time. Nothing to base this on except my own situation and a few observations of photographers I enjoy.</p>
