Karl Taylor rants about gear. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GflhBUSpdQ. Hopefully, this won't get kicked to the Links section.

Just copy/paste the address to your web browser's address section. Doing that took me there no problem.

Bob, if you would include some discussion in your opening, perhaps the topic would be kept in this section?

Floyd, as Linda pointed out, the text copied and pasted into a browser address window will take you there. However, since we're past the initial post, here's the link.

Linda, I have a remarkable record here at UHH. Prior to posting a link I assess whether it's going to invite discussion or whether it's going to be simply a 'hey look what I found' article of interest. Regardless of the choice I make, 100% of the time, so far, Admin has moved the article to the other section. So, I tried a different approach here, leave off the http://... part. I figured most people would copy and paste as you suggested.

LOL

I've sometimes embedded the link using the html coding, such as in this topic:
https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-549837-1.html
where I directed folks to another page for background.

But I also post a lot of words in my opening, too, attempting to make it clear this is a topic open for discussion of a specific subject...or for hijacking, insults, complaints, whatever 🙄

Thanks, Linda. I'll keep that idea in mind the next time I post a link. It might work.

I'm well aware of that, Linda. I was trying to be helpful to others who may not know to copy and paste into their browser.
Thanks,
Mark

Interesting video and he has a point. But if amateurs didn't buy professional gear the manufacturers would have to triple the price or stop making it. Even the $6,500 D5 has to sell in good numbers to be profitable.

I got a kick out of it when he said you can get good pictures with just 18mp. It wasn't that long ago when folks were saying that 6mp is all you need. Pretty soon it will be that we can turn out 'decent' images with just 50, but for pro work you need 100.

Thanks for posting this Bob.

This should be run on a continuous loop for the members. This guy reminds me of Ken Rockwell. Keep it simple, stop pixel peeping in the corners and just work for the shot...
