Macro photo for hummingbirds
I would like to propose an idea (and practical solutions) to reach an unusual technique for unusual photo subjects. We all know about wildlife photography. Most of us have seen nice pictures taken of hummingbirds (their colors are often impressive and changing with light). Most photographers will try and make good images of a flying…

Upscaling a photo with free AI
Problem statement Sometimes, I am somewhat dissatisfied with the size of my digital photographs.

Olympus OM-D
Olympus has finally announced this very weird camera now known as the Olympus OM-D. Don’t let the photo mislead you, this is not a good old APS-C digital SLR camera. On the contrary, this is a surprising little camera taking its inspiration from many books and many different worlds. The Olympus OM-D goes back to…

Canon 1D X
Quite a bit far outside of the possibilities of most photographers, here is the new pro D-SLR camera from Canon, le Canon EOS 1D X. As a matter of fact, this is a camera which conciliates the Canon EOS 1D and EOS 1Ds families. We’re back to the Full Frame sensors, with 18 mega-pixels. the…
