Full Frame Camera vs. APS-C Camera
Photography is quite interesting, from the artistry, beauty, color to detail. I love it but having professional photography comes at a price from the high technology devices to the high skills involved. Going into the neaty gritties of it we look at the full frame camera Vs. the APS-C camera. The abbreviation APS-C camera simply refer to Advanced Photo System type C cameras. While selecting a digital SLR or a lens to use with it, it is vital to understand the difference betwe

Belle Isle The New State Park
We once drove in circles for hours and hours. I could be with family barbecuing for a reunion. Girls were every-where. Guys were just in the way. They were in my way anyway. Teenage years are some of the best times of one’s life. I don’t know how teenagers in the City of Detroit the generation behind mine came up here without living it up on this rock. As a child, Belle Isle was most known for the Giant Slide. Even though it’s still there I scratch my head as to why it’s no l


Photographing Large Groups

Best DSLR Lens For The Best Price
In my first blog I talked about where to find equipment in the metro Detroit area. This time around I’m going to talk about a high quality lens for a low price. A 50mm prime lens for Canon or Nikon is a great starter lens that gives you a lot of versatility. This lens works well for photography or videography. The best thing about the 50mm prime is the ability to capture at f1.8. You won’t find a lens with that much depth of field at this price. When shooting photography you
