Photo Plus Expo – Nikon Stage
I have the distinct honor of being back on the main Nikon Stage at this year’s Photo Plus Expo. You can catch me on Saturday at 10:15 am where I’ll be talking about street photography and Nikon for a half-hour presentation. As you can see from the line-up, I’m in really good company. I’m posting from Lisbon where we are wrapping up a workshop in this amazing and photogenic city. I bro…Read On…

Second Look: The New Nikon Compact DL 18-50 f1.8-2.8 – Part 2: Go Wide
I talked mostly about the Nikon’s DL 24-85 f1.8-2.8 in my last post, now it’s time to talk about the DL18-50 f1.8-2.8 camera.
