Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

Nikon has a few good ones. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

Aaron,

I've only ever had cheap scanners, and they did the trick for what I needed at the time.

A friend just recently bought a CanoScan...not exactly sure which model, but it does the flatbed thing *and* slides/negs. I think it's the 8400F, but I'm not certain. Wasn't terribly expensive as I recall (under $200) but it had some ungodly specs like 3200 x 6400 color dpi resolution.

This probably doesn't help much, but at least it gives you a data point.
