Olbrich Botanical Gardens Tour

One of my favorite places to visit and photograph in Madison is Olbrich Botanical Gardens. Today I take you inside to both the indoor gardens and the outdoor gardens now that it is finally summer.

Nikon Z6 vs Sony A7III Eye AF test and Sony A7II only $1000 on amazon

There was a Eye AF shootout between the Sony A7III and the Nikon Z6 and the Sony won because it could focus on the eye at a farther distance than the Nikon can. Also, the older Sony A7II is available for only $998(with lens) on amazon.

Nikon's yearly Report Out

Nikon's Quarterly report came out today and it shows more contraction overall in the interchangable lens camera market. Overall sales are down year over year by 18% and DSLR sales are especially lagging at the entry level end due to the rise of cellphone image quality. Sales of full frames like the D850 are strong but sales of the Z6 and Z7 are not quite as strong despite marketing. This is most likely due to the fact that Nikon's mirrorless line does not have that many lenses and is still outclassed by Sony's line overall.

Adobe Photography Plan jumps to $20/month, but the $10/month plan is still available.

Adobe upped their regular photography plan from $10 per month to $20 per month while expanding the storage space online to 1TB. However, many of us do work locally and don't need extra storage space so for those of us not wanting to spend the $10 extra, you can still purchase the old plan Here.
