rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author roger1250 - Ever wonder what makes one photograph stand out from other photos, even if they're all of the same subject? The photographers camera? The lens used? Technique? Certainly these are important factors in how the final image will turn out. But there is...

Fujitsu 4 Rolls Superia X-TRA 35mm Color Print Film: Not Just for Low-Light Anymore (updated!)

Thu, 15 Aug 2002 17:00:47 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author roger1250 - ISO 400 color print film used to be reserved for those times when one needed speed over quality much like ISO 800 and 1600 films are today (Though I hear that 800 speed films are getting a lot better too). But those days are in the past because now you...

Thu, 15 Aug 2002 13:32:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author roger1250 - Fuji Superia Reala ISO 100 Color Negative Film is by far the highest quality premium print film on the market today.

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author roger1250 - I recently bought a Rebel G kit from a local discount department store and this lens was included. I know that Canon since updated both the Rebel series camera and the standard zoom lens offered in a newer kit. Heck even the instruction manual for the...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author roger1250 - The day I bought this camera, I was actually looking for a Konica Z-up 120. The camera shop was out of the Z-up 120 at the time but introduced me to the tiny Lexio with its partially metal construction. When I opened the clam shell type door that turns th...

Kodak PictureMaker Kiosk Printer: I once was blind, but now I see

Tue, 23 Oct 2001 13:12:13 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author roger1250 - I have to admit it. I had pretty much written this thing off as a low quality novelty printer before I ever tried it. Though recently, I got a wild hair and decided to have three sets of 8x10's made using three different methods of printing. I used 2 diff...
