Some of you may be scratching their heads now, trying to think of a Canon model by the name of 3XL, but let me spare you the trouble and explain that 3XL doesn't refer to a camera, lens or photographic accessory at all - unless you count a T-shirt with the name of a camera manufacturer on it as a ph...

My Secret St. Nicholas has done very well, he has clearly taken my hobby preferences and needs into account. So far I´ve been using a belt pack or a light shoulder bag for my Olympus OM-D EM-5, but sometimes a ready case is just handier. And that´s what I got, so I´m happy! Leather as well. ...

Today it was a final goodbye to my Canon kit, and a hello to my new small and lightweight Olympus kit: an OM-D E-M5 with a 12-50 lens. Talking to the dealer, I reminisced about my early photographic beginnings. It all started with my father feeling that if I was to take photographs, that was ...

So, the decision's been made. I'm selling my Canon kit and going for something smaller and lighter. (See the forum thread here.)

So I've embarked on trying out a few tutorials and downloaded a few podcasts with the aim of trying to improve. This one is just ...

I had the opportunity to meet the legendary photographer on Thursday at a press event organised by Olympus. They were showcasing the new E-30 and E-620 and Mr. Bailey turned up for a Q&A session. It's great to know that ePHOTOzine led the way. We were the only ones with questions prepared and so...

To be clear: This blog entry isn't about the album with this name by punk rock band Lagwagon. Nor is it about Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria, a hereditary skin disorder, Toledo Suburban Airport's international code, Dungra Bhil's language code, or Deutsche Umwelthilfe, a German environmenta...

I prefer to always have a camera with me. Admitted, it isn't always practical, but I do try. Because when I'm out and about without a camera, there's always a reason to regret I didn't take one. Before I went digital, I had a Canon EOS IX (Canon's APS SLR, quite a nice camera!) in my photo bag. A...
