Playing with New Toys: EOS 1D-X and EOS 5Dmrk3
During the past couple of weeks I have been playing with new toys — or tools, more like it. Canon Finland was kind enough to lend me the new EOS 1DX and the 5Dmrk3 to play with for couple of days. No, this is not a test, just simple first impressions.
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield
When you are old and gray and full of sleep And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep… This blog is typically about photography and all things related. Today, it is not. When the trip counter of your …
