A Dope with an Olympus XA

As I learn to use these film cameras again (okay, any camera) I really think my nick name should be Dopey, Sir Dopalot, or, perhaps, The Dopester.Case in point: I somehow acquired this Olympus XA with

Team M42 and the Leavenworth County Fair

I first learned about the M42 mount from my friend Mark Sanderson. He’s one of those guys who knows cameras. And by “knows,” I mean he knows all about their history, various brands, lenses, bodies, ho

Author’s Note: While we were all jamming to The Bangles, Kenny Loggins, and Wang Chung, Kodak released its first camera after 17 years. I don’t remember it. But seeing it now, I think it’s loosely bas

The Cheap Camera with the Expensive Name - Quickshot X3000

I’ve had this plastic, piece of crap, toy camera laying around for years. I don’t even remember where I got it, but it was in a box, on a dresser, on a shelf, in a box again, back on my shelf again, a

Toy Camera Fun with the Ansco 1065

Having weirdly enjoyed the experience of the Quickshot X3000, and the rugged feel of plastic in my hands still fresh on my mind, I saw an ad for an Ansco 1065 35mm, complete with wide angle and teleph

My Dad's Old Nikon FG Pulled Me Back Into the World of Film

I swore off shooting film cameras about 15 years ago. I packed my Nikkormats away and had no intention of EVER shooting anything but digital.

Welcome to my new site. A special "thank you" to Julia for building it for me. As I started pulling content together for it, I realized I have A LOT of photos and stories and not enough time to put it all on here. So this site, like all of them, I guess, is a work in progress and this is the first phase. If you don't see your picture on here, but think it should be, just wait. I'm sure I'll stumble across it some day and add it on.

Digiversity.tv

Digiversity.tv has been around since 2001, but what you see now is a rebirth. New brand identity, new website, and new videos. In addition to the videos are blog articles and, just for fun, Julia and I do Digiversity.tv LIVE, where we get to share tricks and techniques we use on a regular basis, things we've learned, and introduce you to our friends who come on as guests to share their knowledge.
