Today I was introduced to the author, Bill Bryson, while reading this Jeffrey Friedl blog entry. Looking at his other titles on Amazon.com, I’m excited that here I might find a contemporary author I’ll really enjoy.
Sam Jones
Last night at BAM!, killing time before a film, I found the book The Here And Now: The Photographs of Same Jones. Holy cow! I loved it. I looked at every page. Unfortunately, I didn’t have $39.99 in my book budget. But Amazon’s got a better price, so perhaps I’ll pick a copy up there.
Auto ISO! (D40)
I just discovered the Auto ISO setting on my Nikon D40. Yes! I thought it was the same as the “Auto ISO” choice on the shooting menu. It really bothered me that I couldn’t choose Auto ISO in P mode. Well, it turns out I can! I just didn’t realize the darned camera had two identically-named but different settings. Awesome!
Thank you again, Ken Rockwell.
