    P&S recommendation?

    A friend of mine wants to buy a new camera for $300-400. His criteria is something that focuses fast for taking pictures of his kids and including a zoom with good reach for say, across a soccer field. Ideas?

    WTB: Contax G2 kit, black

    Looking for a new or very low mileage body, 21mm, 45mm, 90mm, vario, flash, bag or case. I'll buy a whole kit and I don't expect all the bits to match my wish list. Thanks!

    Cheap P&S + hood recommendation?

    I need to find a camera like this with a hood to shoot cars for online listings, often with the camera pointed towards the sun. I was ready to go with a Panasonic Lumix FZ20 (or similar), which has a huge flower hood, but learned it interferes with the low light autofocus and close up flash...

    Alcatraz - the night tour

    Photo album here. The boat leaves at 4:20, so I knew the light would be good when we circled the island about 15 minutes later. As for later, I figured it would be interesting... The Officer's Club (or what's left of it). Built 1910: Down the cell block: The cafeteria...

    FS: Sigma 10-20 f/4-5.6 for Nikon $400

    This has been a great lens. I replaced it with a Tokina 11-16mm for low light use. I haven't bought or sold anything used here, but I have 100% feedback on eBay as gromitspapa. Mount shows minimal wear, one side of hood is worn. Probably has about 200 clicks on it. Lens has never been hit or...

    Motorcycle racing at Infineon Raceway

    Last Saturday had AMA Superbike and Formula Xtreme at Infineon. I went there to get some shots of this hot-rod version of my bike run by San Jose BMW competing in Formula Xtreme (action shots taken with 300mm f/4 and 70-200VR on D300): #98 Jake Zemke ran away with the race on his Honda...

    Near Virginia City

    Near Virginia City (as in Bonanza), there's sort of a junkyard right alongside the road. Some figures have been crafted amongst the junk, too. These were all shot with the D300 and 17-55, some hopped up on Nik filters...

    Twilight and beyond in Truckee, CA

    Really charming, funky town. The first was shot with the 70-200VR, the rest with the 17-55, all hand held (forgot the plate the tripod grips onto). Used some Nik filters on #3 and #5...

    D300 at ISO 3200

    Just walking around the neighborhood testing the 300mm AF-S f/4 that just arrived. It was around 7pm, so it was getting dark. These are all at ISO 3200, f/4, vivid (except the shingled house), high ISO NR on (default), and handheld. Maybe these aren't the best kinds of test photos, but I'm...

    South Lake Tahoe on the bike

    Still kinda cold out, but wanted to do a Cabin Fever/Charge the Battery ride, so I headed south along the east side of the lake, taking the GX100 along and making several stops. Glenbrook is the highest-end neighborhood at the lake, from what I'm told. This could be seen from Hwy 28 along the...
