I was in the area, so I had to check out Rock Run in the Loyalsock State Forest.
Well, nothing is really in the area of this location, but it doesn't take much of an excuse to pull me to places like this. Prior to this trip, I did not find many Rock Run photos online, so I thought I would share a few of my Rock Run Pictures (Ralston, PA) with you.
OnOne Software has announced version 1.3.2 of their DSLR Camera Remote Server software.
Support for the Canon EOS Rebel T2i/550D DSLR Camera is now included.
I have added a Lens Flare Comparison Tool to the Lens Comparison Tools page.
Most of the current Canon lenses are included. Nikon and many third party lenses will be added as clear skies and schedules allow.
Be sure to read the Lens Flare Help page for test details.
Redrock Micro has announced the microEVF High Definition Electronic HDSLR Viewfinder.
Some image quality and physical camera comparisons (and some eye candy) have been added to the Canon EOS 60D Digital SLR Camera Review page.
Canon USA has launched the "Your Second Shot" PowerShot Ad Campaign.
"The campaign’s new commercial was shot entirely with Canon’s EOS 5D Mark II Digital SLR camera and EF lenses."
This campaign will be launched at usa.canon.com/yoursecondshot.
"SIGMA 85mm F1.4 EX DG HSM will be available from the end of this month in Canon mount." [Sigma]
Adorama has the Sigma 85 available for preorder.
Canon Professional Network (CPN) has posted three videos describing the new Canon lenses.
The video describing the new Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II USM Lens and Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II USM Lens is the longest - going into the most depth. And I have to say, the weight reduction on the 400 is very dramatic - I can easily handhold this lens for periods of time.
Zeiss Focuses on Successful DSLR Lens Series - a strategy-revealing press release from Zeiss.
Datacolor has introduced the SpyderCheckr Color Reference Solution.
Lowepro today launched their redesigned S&F Modular Carrying System.
Lowepro, Pelican and Think Tank Photo cases comprise 98% of my current camera gear transport and carry systems right now. All three companies make excellent products. And this new Lowepro S&F Modular Carrying System looks very useful.
The Canon EOS 60D DSLRs are shipping in the USA. Adorama has them in stock.
Think Tank Photo Urban Disguise V2.0
Think Photo Digital Holster V2.0
Think Photo Digital Holsters are one of my most-used cases. This case is very easy to take with you and provides good protection for the camera and lens - while allowing quick access. "A feature new to V2.0 is the built-in side attachment system compatible with most Modular, Skin, or Multimedia components" solves a remaining need I had for these cases and makes them much more functional.
