Becki & Chris’ Camera Bag Tour – Promaster Camera Bag

Posted on June 19, 2018 by JeffJune 19, 2018

CAMERA BAGS  Features to look for in a camera bag: tons of space, lots of pockets, chest and waist straps, a tripod pouch, and style.

Posted on June 5, 2017 by JeffJune 5, 2017

Photography is its most basic element stems from Algebra, Chemistry and Optical Physics.  With digital photography we have kind of replaced Chemistry with Computer Science. Let’s face it, most of us are not fans of mathematics; and, many are shocked to learn how large a role math plays in photography.  Algebraic elements are at the core root to photography. Reverting to film base we know that there are two types of film that exist – negative and positive.   The same applies to photographic paper.  As a result, we print negatives using negative paper (two negatives equal a positive).
