What Led Me to The Gitzo G1177M:
(Click here if you want to see my review of the Gitzo G1178M, which is the quick release version of the G1177M).
Sorry for the lack of posts lately. I could tell you that I’ve been busy, and taking a bunch of photo assignments but I’ve just been a little lazy this month :). January does that to me for some reason…I think it has to do with the post Christmas and New Years time…who knows. But I will definitely be kicking off the New Year with a whole bunch of stuff, such as a new reviews, and of course, more photos…Speaking of photos, I’ve been really getting into landscape (well, cityscape) photography lately. I even started reading up on HDR photography, which was something I wasn’t too interested in before. I also plan on shooting more city photos for stock, which leads me to why I’m blogging about the Gitzo G1177M ballhead today. [continue reading…]
Mirrorless Cameras:
Are mirrorless cameras the wave of the future? It sure seems like it sometimes. This is just a random post on a topic I was thinking about while I was surfing the web. This is in no way an attack on anyone who uses anything else besides mirrorless cameras, it’s just a random topic on a photo blog :). Everywhere I look, all I hear about are new mirrorless cameras that have come out or are coming out. Manufacturers such as Sony, Fuji, Leica, Pentax, Olympus, Panasonic, and now even Nikon (when are you jumping on the bandwagon Canon?) are coming out with some pretty cool mirrorless cameras nowadays each with their own twist on what a mirrorless camera should entail. Will they replace DSLR’s as mainstream cameras in the future? [continue reading…]

The Leica Handgrip M For The Leica M9:
When Leica first released the M9, people for the most part, were glad that Leica was able build a rangefinder camera with a full frame sensor while also keeping the same basic shape and design for the body as previous Leica M cameras. Plus we get to use all of our old M lenses :)! Compare an M9 and a film Leica together; Other than the M9 being a little more plump, both look pretty much the same, and feel pretty much the same. But notice that I said pretty much the same. [continue reading…]

More Photos of Japan With the Fuji X100 (short post):
I can’t believe Christmas is this Sunday. Where does the time go? Anyway, I have more photos from Japan today taken with the Fuji X100. This is going to be a short post because…well…I have to finish my Christmas shopping :). I’m a big procrastinator :). For those who haven’t seen parts 1 and 2 of my Tokyo Japan posts you can find Part 1 here and Part 2 here. I have a lot more photos in those posts, and they will give you a little more of an introduction if by chance, you’re first visit to findingrange.com is through this post. [continue reading…]

Subcompact Cameras Like The D-Lux 5:
Wow, have any of you seen what a really good subcompact/point and shoot camera can do nowadays? I know a lot of subcompact cameras (point and shoot) like the Leica D-Lux 5, the Panasonic LX5, and the Olympus XZ-1 can shoot in RAW but I guess after I bought my M9, it kind a made me forget that even cameras in the point and shoot category can produce beautiful images. Oh come on, I know that I’m not the only one who forgot that after the purchase of an amazing machine such as the Leica M9 :). [continue reading…]
