New Nikon Zf

 

I got the new Nikon Zf, mostly as a replacement for my Fuji XPRO2. In particular I was interested in using it with the B & W mode and early tests seem to indicate that it will be a suitable replacement for the Fuji . I have a 26mm pancake lens for it and it also is proving to be a fine walking around camera.

Last nude portrait shoot of 2023

 I like thee last shoot of the shooting season at Tyson studio to be with Carol, my "senior muse", this year it came a little early the first week in October.

New 3.5CM lens for my S4!

 

This year I found a clean S4 rangefinder Nikon on eBay, I arranged for a CL from Dave's Camera Repair and it's a nice bit of camera jewelry. Nostalgia does have its cost, I had a Nikon SP in graduate school and just HAD to revisit that.

Last figure/fabric studio shoot of 2023 with Lyla

 

Bart used to say that the work will tell you everything you need to know about it, listen to your work. I have decided the fabric/figure work has run its course, at least for the present time in this manner.

Where have I been?

 I've really been doing this blog a disservice and not keeping up with it. honestly the stats for this site are not so terrific in terms of reaching out to any audience so I have been spending more time on my FLICKR and BEHANCE site and of course, still servicing my self portrait blog.  Stay tuned, there may be more to come.
