Hoping to post it up by the weekend, articles on this blog will be more technically orientated and will deal mostly with equipment.
So what's in the name?
Shooting wide open is all about getting the images under extreme settings...yeah baby, shooting that lens at it's maximum aperture...because you can...pushing the limit with ISO...who knows what else?
If there is a limit out there, I will do my best to find it, push it and come tell you good people about it...with pics!
See, I used to pixel peep for way too long and I simply decided to take a different approach to it. Consider me the Kryptonite to all Super pixel peepers.
So join me on yet another journey...that of getting every last drop of performance out of your current kit.
The first article is practically done and should land by the weekend. I plan to dicuss a humble little lens that should be in the bag of absolutely every fairly serious D-SLR owner...the 50mm prime.
Until then, have fun!

The Phoenix posting...
All righty then, gutted the old useless stuff that sat there and starting fresh. The aim of this blog is rather limited at first as it is aimed at becoming a more technical kit based arena running parallel to my other blog here at http://antonroland.blogspot.com/.
I plan to put some real-life type reviews on here about kit I own use and like...maybe also some kit I owned in the past. Let us crawl and start walking before we enter for the 100 meter sprint though...
So why does this planet need yet another blog?
We must have millions already and possibly hundreds if not thousands that deal with photography in some way. Well, true but in my immediate sphere of influence and elsewhere I regularly come across lots of information not always absolutely correct.
As requested by friends and customers, my other blog finally got going as a resource to represent credible sources of reference that took me lots of time and money to find and build.
Why do I do this? Because I can.
More importantly because I cannot bear to let others learn the same lessons the hard and expensive way I had to.
Also because I cannot bear to see people charging money to teach others next -to-nothing.
Am I the authority on all these fields? Hell, no, but I do posess a bit of common sense and my goal is to equip you, my valued reader, with enough information to come to an informed decision before you spend your hard-earned cash.
So let us see how this journey unfolds. I look forward to learning from all of you who might contribute on here.
Enjoy the ride with me!
