DMC-365 - Exploring the Interface Between Equipment and Creativity in Photography

DMC-365 focuses on creative photography equipment, techniques, and approaches. I believe that equipment is part of the creative process. I use Leica, Panasonic Lumix, Nikon and other cameras, both digital and film. On DMC-365, you can expect to see a lot of my own work, as well as work by others that I find interesting. I share methods, equipment developments, and creative approaches to photography.

Be sure to have a look at their great tutorials and products while you're there.

While these are somewhat amusing to read, there are some real nuggets in there for corporate execs to

learn from. I doubt that truly nefarious folks will learn from the alleged wrongdoings at Olympus, but maybe well-meaning ones will learn about the dangers of killing really useful products and altering upgrade pricing policies on software? We can only hope.

We can also hope that Olympus can recover from this debacle. They are an important complement to Panasonic in the Micro 4/3 game.
