Nikon Z fc
You might remember Nikon’s Df retro-styled DSLR released in 2013. Today Nikon has introduced a new take on that classic design for its mirrorless Z system. The 20.9-megapixel Nikon Z fc is a DX-format (APS-sensor) camera that inherits its vintage looks from the iconic Nikon FM2 film SLR, but jumps into the future with 4K video, Eye-Detection AF and a Vari-Angle touchscreen LCD.

What’s a “big glass” landscape? What is your “go-to” lens to photograph scenics? Are you sure you have a polarizer for your 400mm lens? Wait—in some way these three sentences imply one should use a telephoto lens to make scenics! Yes—it goes against the norm to photograph a scenic with a wide angle, but just because everyone else uses a wide angle all of the time, there’s no reason to follow the...

Having lived in cities most of my life, astrophotography has not been one of my main focuses, but that changed recently for a couple of reasons. For one, when the pandemic hit, my wife and I moved to our “summer” house in the Catskills in New York full time. Up here in the country, there are quite a few nice spots to photograph the stars without having to worry about the effects of light pollution....

I love it when the sky is filled with drama as ominous clouds boil in fury and thunder. This frequently occurs as huge thunderstorms move into an area. Likewise, as a storm wanes, a crispness and vivid sense of cleansing occurs. Both provide dramatic circumstances for storm photography. Constantly monitor weather stations and satellite radar to be prepared when changes in sky conditions are forecast....

Crowds gather at a scenic overlook in Grand Canyon National Park. Notice the steep cliffs—this is not a place to push the boundaries for an Instagram selfie.
Our national parks are popular, and with those crowds come folks unprepared for the hazards and sometimes lacking common sense, increasing the risk of accidents. People falling from cliffs trying to take “selfies” is far too common an occurrence...
