Re: Slow page loads today?
I'm not really a fussy customer, but all I can say is something is definitely different over the last week. It's taking 3 or 4 seconds (but sometimes slightly less) for photos on smugmug (my site, like this page: http://www.openbloom.com/VACATION-AND-SHORT-TRIPS/CITIES/New-York-City-2014/ ) to appear initially. Once they… -
Re: External Monitor

And your $$ budget. ** If you shoot in sRGB or RAW and extract to sRGB or exclusively work in B&W then a… -
FS: Nikon AI/AIS Lenses
I've switched back to Canon on the digital side, and I've had the same roll of Velvia in my FE2 since last Christmas, so I've come to the realization that my remaining Nikon gear isn't going to see much use any time soon. Up for sale is a collection of nice Nikon manual-focus prime lenses; all are AIS except the 50mm f2.… -

Re: Slow Smugmug
I am also having a big speed problem. I noticed it first yesterday from a friends cable modem. I still had the slowness when I got home where I also have a cable modem. And at work this morning some of my galleries are still very slow. A page of thumbnails can take more than 30 seconds to load. I am on a very fast… -
Sigma APO 100-300mm f/4 - reviews/samples
APO 100-300mm f/4 EX IF HSM Sigma sure loves their acronyms/initials. :lol3 But anyway, I got my new lens on friday and I love it! I just wanted to post a bit of review and some sample shots on it.
