MODE by Flickr: The World’s Photography Festival For decades, photography has shaped fashion, music, journalism, sports, activism, and the internet itself. Yet the people behind the lens have never had a festival built for them. Until now.

BIG RESTECP to #FLICKR for bringing their upcoming #PhotoFestival to #MINNEAPOLIS!

Why spend $13K on a #SonyEmount 400/2.8, when you could use a #Pentax M42 400/5.6 with #Fotodiox adapter combo for about $150??
Into #MacroPhotography? Put a #Hasselblad #MakroPlanar on your #NikonZ8! #BirdPhotographers should consider the #MinoltaMD 100-200/5.6 on their #OMSystemOM1ii!

Or you could put this #Pentax M42 135/3.5 onto a #microfourthirds camera, and make it a 270mm equivalent!
Or do some low-light situations on your #SonyA7IV with a #CanonFD 50/1.4! Or go to that same sitch with a Pentax 55/1.8 and a #CanonR6ii!

You all knooooow I love #Fotodiox adapters and the way they open up possibilities for #MirrorlessCamera users! Here's a few combinations that are possible with what's in our stock and Used Dept...
How about putting a vintage #Nikon lens on a #CanonR5?
Or a vintage #LeicaM lens on a #NikonZ9?

Me: Never!

Psych: Thats good [starts writing]

Me: I am always early, sometimes I will have to sit in my car for an hour.

A picture of mangroves where branches and roots become each other a tangle of branches crowding the sandy floor and trunks rising up behind them. The photo is in B&W, but originally in color.

Mangroves in Mexico. This was taken from a boat and isn't the sharpest, but I was enjoying the light. Minolta Alpha 7 and the Zeiss 50 on Gold converted to B&W.

something abled people don't get is you can have just one day a week where you are too sick to work, and that's enough to disqualify you from nearly all full-time jobs. it doesn't take a lot

I have used various copies of this lens and can vouch for it - the Tamron SP 45/1.8 VC is a GEM OF A LENS, and exceptional in all specs. If you're a #Nikon DSLR user, you ought to come by and check this lens out! :)

The way the #LakeMichigan shapes the shoreline, with the easily-molded snow and ice is always neat to witness.

The #CanonR8 is a pretty capable, entry-level, full-frame, mirrorless camera, and it was fun to use with these older manual-focus lenses. I had to remind myself that it does not have IBIS, but beyond that, I really enjoyed it!

I also stopped by the #MaryNohl house and peeked over the fence at her sculptures!

Last weekend, before all the snow melted, I took a used #CanonR8 and two Used #OlympusOM lenses out for the weekend! Went to a bar concert and did some hiking out on the snow/ice ledge along #LakeMichigan!
