While testing the Rokinon 35mm f1.4 and picking up the Lomo Lubitel 166 for review, I went on a photo walk though NYC. It was something new for me, a photo walk with a purely manual focus lens. It is a totally different style of photographic Kung Fu. It really makes you appreciate auto focus. It’s a different way of seeing, which leads to real changes in how you shoot.

It’s not very often when a product really surprises me. When it comes to my daily photography I usually carry my gear in a backpack like the Crumpler Customary Barge or a Tarmac evolution 8. Sometimes these bags get in the way as they can be somewhat bulky, especially at events. When I got my hands on the properly named Event Messenger 150, I knew my problem was solved. After using the bag for a while I’ve become really comfortable with it. (via Review: Lowepro Event Messenger 150)

While this trigger does not have the features of the TTL Phottix Odins, it does work well. These triggers are for those wanting to move their flash photography to its next logical step (via Review: Hahnel Combi TF Remote Control & Flash Trigger for Nikon)

My Flash trigger Review On the Phoblographer

I do like the Hahnel Combi TF Remote Control & Flash Trigger for Nikon. It fits with my styles of photography. It will be used a lot in my coffee photography as well as my macro photography. As I move more into portraits it will be an invaluable tool. (via Review: Hahnel Combi TF Remote Control & Flash Trigger for Nikon)

In terms of looks, this tripod is actually quite stylish. Clean lines and a straight forward design define its appearance. How does it compare to a Manffroto tripod in the same range? Very well actually; while it does not share its pedigree, the Oben AC-1400 is a decent product …(via Review: Oben AC-1400 4-Section Aluminum Tripod with BA-00 Ball Head)

So Coffee Common came to A Startup Store in Chelsea ,  New York City. If you know my adoration for all things coffee, you know it drew me like a moth to a flame. For $5 I got to sip on great coffee samples and get some coffee questions answered in person.
