from baby makes three
i've been shooting with a totally different camera these last two months. has anyone noticed? previously, i had been using the canon 30d, which i totally loved. i had spent about eight months with the camera, day in and day out, learning to use it. i felt i'd figured out its strengths and weaknesses pretty well. but for these last two months, i've been using the nikon d2hs. as with all things new, it takes a while before you start to understand and appreciate the new way of doing things.
so i think i've gotten to the point where i don't hate the new camera and i feel this photo clearly demonstrates the difference between the two systems. there's a certain clarity of detail and color tonality which the nikon captures that's just, well, different from the way my canon would see things.
is it better or worse? who's to say, since everything's subjective anyways. and really, i've always stood by the claim that it's not your equipment, but how you use it. but i'm happy to say that at the very least i don't hate my nikon anymore.
