After yet another hard drive related failure I went out to find a solution to my storage woes and decided to build my own Do It Yourself (DIY) Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) Network Attached Storage (NAS)!

I bought some of Kodak’s new Ektar 100 (ultra fine grain negatives) some time ago to see if I would use it in future to replace the Kodak PortaVC that I usually use for my medium format shots.

I’ve been wanting a decent camera that will fit in between my Nikon D3 and my mobile phone’s camera. I was considering the Panasonic LX3 for a while it was compact, I found it TOO compact for my stubby fingers. So I held on for a while, and then along came the Olympus E-P1…

So far I’ve trusted my eyes more than any $20 piece of cardboard, that is until I decided it was time to invest in some “more proper” methods of getting the correct white balance.

With my kind of bad luck, my old HTC’s LCD cracked internally for no apparent reason. So began the search for a new phone and along came the Samsung Jet.

I just finished a quick job that required the use of crushed ice and we all know that ice and studio equipment do not mix well! So I had to fake it.

I was loaned two Voigtlander lenses over the past few months to test them out in the field. The Ultron 40mm F2 SL-II as well as the Nokton 58mm F1.4 SL-II. Here’s a quick user based review on the two lenses.

One of the main reasons why I’m still shooting with medium format film is just simply how much detail a 6×6cm negative (or positive) can hold.

I wanted something that had the best of both worlds, no back strain but yet easily accessible pockets. That’s when I read about a new brand of camera bags that has emerged in the market, Think Tank.
