New Gear: GoPro Wide motorsport!

31 Jan ’09 by Ben

yeah, I know I know, why the hell do I need another camera right?  But these things have been calling my name since I’d seen them in the back of NG adventurer a year or so ago…  And they finally made a wide version (instead of the rumored wide angle adapter) so how could I […]

New Gear: Sigma 20mm EX DG

31 Jan ’09 by Ben

Well as much as I don’t really want to like this lens, it’s actually proving to be quite the sharp, wide, fast bargain.  It’s been on the camera since it came out of it’s box last night, and so far I’ve been very impressed with it.  It’s got sigma’s typical black flake paint job on […]

For Sale: Canon 70-200 f4 IS L

26 Jan ’09 by Ben

I’m selling my beloved 70-200 f4 IS.  This lens is one of canon’s sharpest zooms ever made and it has the best IS they make.  Yet I’m still selling it….  Why?  Because I had it and the 300 as a great pair, but once I sold the 300 for the 100-400 it’s been a bit […]

Show us your teeth!

25 Jan ’09 by Ben

Debbie taught Elias a new trick Friday…  “Show us your teeth!” gets us a big toothy grin now and most of the time he does an obnoxious head tilt with it.  It’s actually hysterical to watch.  Once you ask him he keeps grinning at you showing you his teeth for a few minutes.  This has […]

For Sale: Canon 40D

21 Jan ’09 by Ben

Yep, selling my 40D.  It was a great companion to my 5D as it added reach and FPS, but with a 5Dii now the reach aspect is gone and I haven’t been needed the FPS.  For now it’s for sale, although I’ll be replacing it with a XSi for Nikki and eventually a 1D mark […]

EAJ 46 week update!

18 Jan ’09 by Ben

Well it’s really been winter this past week.  It’s been cold, then frigid, then cold again, and now it’s “warm” (~25) and snowing.  I don’t mind the snow in the least, but cold and windy can get old even for me.  Nikki got a bit of cabin fever today when Elias only slept for 30 […]

Waterville 1-11-2009

14 Jan ’09 by Ben

Well I got to get out on the snow again this past weekend…  It was a shorter trip to Waterville which was actually awesome because it meant I was home in time to see Elias.  I actually took some shots of him for the PAD, but somehow in the mix with the 2 cameras used […]

Elias is 10 months old!

10 Jan ’09 by Ben

Wow, can you believe it?  The little (well, not so little) man is 10 months already…  Just 2 more months and we’ll have been at this a year already.  He’s got three teeth now.  He’s pretty much quit eating baby food, and he’s really cruising around the house a lot now.  He’s also walking in […]

New Gear: Domke F-5XC

7 Jan ’09 by Ben

Picked this up as a small shoulder bag option.  So far so good.  I wish it didn’t have the bottom zipper flap or the little front pockets but rather some pockets on the sides.  But all in all it’s a good bag in terms of size and being small/compact.  It fits a 100-400 vertically on […]

PAD 2008/2009!

2 Jan ’09 by Ben

Well, last year, for my new year resolution, I decided to do a PAD.  A PAD is a photo a day project.  I’ve tried to do them in 2006 and 2007 as well, but failed both times.  This year I knew if I could make it until Elias’ birth, I’d have a good subject and […]

Happy 2009!!!

2 Jan ’09 by Ben

Well a new year comes and it’s time to recap 2008.  Obviously it’s been a huge year for us with the birth of Elias.  It’s been a lot of work, but a ton of fun and we’ve really been enjoying everything about parent hood.  He actually is 10 months old TODAY!.  I’ve been on vacation […]
