The Vagabond Photographer: August 2007
http://vagabondphoto.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Because there just aren't enough unqualified people out there giving their opinions on photography. Friday, August 24, 2007. I'd Rather be Lucky then Good - Star Trails pt. 2. Click here in case you missed my first DSLR star trails test. After setting up the shot I had at least a couple hours until it was dark enough to start the exposure. I hiked/slid back down the slippery slope to my campsite and proceeded to have a nice fire with some hot chocolate/Baileys. Ahhh, the perfect combination! Much to my h...

The Vagabond Photographer: $600 Oh Crap!
http://vagabondphoto.blogspot.com/2007/08/600-oh-crap.html
Because there just aren't enough unqualified people out there giving their opinions on photography. Monday, August 20, 2007. Miraculously enough my finger tips felt the wrist strap as I reached as far as I could and they got a positive lock on it! I drug the camera to the surface where I quickly pulled the battery and memory card before rinsing it off with fresh water. We turned the floor vents of the car to heat and let the camera sit in the warm, dry air to hopefully dry off. Looking at my little camer...

The Vagabond Photographer: DSLR and Star Trails - Part 3
http://vagabondphoto.blogspot.com/2007/10/dslr-and-star-trails-part-3.html
Because there just aren't enough unqualified people out there giving their opinions on photography. Saturday, October 6, 2007. DSLR and Star Trails - Part 3. Catch up with Part 1. This shot isn't quite as nice as your 2nd one, but still very good! I don't understand where that noise in the upper left/center is coming from. If you hadn't said the Moon was down, I would have thought it was the Moon. I can't imagine a planet would be bright enough to cause it. Keep at it, Alan! October 9, 2007 at 12:43 PM.

The Vagabond Photographer: Ricoh Caplio GX100
http://vagabondphoto.blogspot.com/2007/08/ricoh-caplio-gx100.html
Because there just aren't enough unqualified people out there giving their opinions on photography. Thursday, August 9, 2007. A hot shoe is darn near impossible! Just in front of the shutter release under you index finger is a rotary control wheel to control lens aperture. I LOVE control wheels, they're so much better then little rocker switches! Another handy and customizable feature is a small f. I've started a Flickr set with some GX100 shots in it, you can see them here. August 9, 2007 at 7:13 PM.

The Vagabond Photographer: July 2007
http://vagabondphoto.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Because there just aren't enough unqualified people out there giving their opinions on photography. Friday, July 27, 2007. I suppose I should start things off with a run down of my gear; I'll start with my DSLR since it's my main camera. I done very little testing of the image stabilization system but I've gotten some very good results at low shutter speeds so it seems to be working as advertised; no complaints there. And 100/2.8 DFA Macro. Saturday, July 21, 2007. Get this show on the road. If you want ...

The Vagabond Photographer: Soggy GX100 update
http://vagabondphoto.blogspot.com/2007/08/soggy-gx100-update.html
Because there just aren't enough unqualified people out there giving their opinions on photography. Tuesday, August 21, 2007. Well, yesterday I slipped the battery and memory card back in the GX100 to see what would happen. I hit the power button and the camera began to power up but the lens didn't extend and the "remove lens cap" warning appeared on the LCD. Well, at least the LCD is working.

The Vagabond Photographer: ICC you
http://vagabondphoto.blogspot.com/2007/08/icc-you.html
Because there just aren't enough unqualified people out there giving their opinions on photography. Wednesday, August 15, 2007. Does your web browser recognize ICC profiles? Judging from the stats of people who view my websites only 6.76% of you can say yes. If you're using Internet Explorer, Firefox, Camino, Opera, or Netscape then the answer is a big old stinky NO! So why should you care if your browser recognizes ICC profiles? Actually recognizes color profiles to I gave it a try. All I can say is...

The Vagabond Photographer: DSLR and Star Trails
http://vagabondphoto.blogspot.com/2007/08/dslr-and-star-trails.html
Because there just aren't enough unqualified people out there giving their opinions on photography. Saturday, August 11, 2007. DSLR and Star Trails. For a long time I've wondered how my DSLR would get along with star trails. How long would the battery last and how would the sensor handle the noise? I was happy to go back to the camera 1 hour later and hear the mirror thunk down when I released the shutter. The battery had survived so far; now lets see if it would last through the dark frame subtracti...
