New Gear: GoPro Wide motorsport!
by Ben
yeah, I know I know, why the hell do I need another camera right? But these things have been calling my name since I’d seen them in the back of NG adventurer a year or so ago… And they finally made a wide version (instead of the rumored wide angle adapter) so how could I […]

New Gear: Sigma 20mm EX DG
by Ben
Well as much as I don’t really want to like this lens, it’s actually proving to be quite the sharp, wide, fast bargain. It’s been on the camera since it came out of it’s box last night, and so far I’ve been very impressed with it. It’s got sigma’s typical black flake paint job on […]

I’m getting this blog update hammered out today so I can relax and enjoy some foolsball tomorrow as well as go out to lunch/brunch with some friends from NSOP… So you’ll be a day late because of my day earliness… Today started out well….

For Sale: Canon 70-200 f4 IS L
by Ben
I’m selling my beloved 70-200 f4 IS. This lens is one of canon’s sharpest zooms ever made and it has the best IS they make. Yet I’m still selling it…. Why? Because I had it and the 300 as a great pair, but once I sold the 300 for the 100-400 it’s been a bit […]

Show us your teeth!
by Ben
Debbie taught Elias a new trick Friday… “Show us your teeth!” gets us a big toothy grin now and most of the time he does an obnoxious head tilt with it. It’s actually hysterical to watch. Once you ask him he keeps grinning at you showing you his teeth for a few minutes. This has […]

by Ben
Yep, switched to the darkside and I’m loving every minute of it. We finally bought a mac and it’s amazing.

EAJ 46 week update!
by Ben
Well it’s really been winter this past week. It’s been cold, then frigid, then cold again, and now it’s “warm” (~25) and snowing. I don’t mind the snow in the least, but cold and windy can get old even for me. Nikki got a bit of cabin fever today when Elias only slept for 30 […]

Elias is 10 months old!
by Ben
Wow, can you believe it? The little (well, not so little) man is 10 months already… Just 2 more months and we’ll have been at this a year already. He’s got three teeth now. He’s pretty much quit eating baby food, and he’s really cruising around the house a lot now. He’s also walking in […]

New Gear: Domke F-5XC
by Ben
Picked this up as a small shoulder bag option. So far so good. I wish it didn’t have the bottom zipper flap or the little front pockets but rather some pockets on the sides. But all in all it’s a good bag in terms of size and being small/compact. It fits a 100-400 vertically on […]
