Canon’s PIXMA Pro9500; How Does Canon’s New Consumer Pigment Ink Photo Printer Perform?
David B. Brooks  |  Nov 01, 2007

It has been well over a year since Canon announced the Canon PIXMA Pro9500. In fact, I was so impatient that I requested the opportunity to try out the professional Canon imagePROGRAF iPF5000 17" 12-color ink model (report published in the March 2007 issue of Shutterbug, and now online at www.shutterbug.com). So now the question is: does the consumer-oriented 13" Canon...

Joe Farace  |  Nov 01, 2007

The big SLR news for pro shooters so far this year is Canon's launch of the EOS-1D Mark III D-SLR. It uses a 10.1-megapixel CMOS sensor measuring 28.1x18.7mm that's about the same size as sensors in the EOS-1D Mark II and Mark II N, but has more pixels than the Mark II's 8.2 megapixels and the same focal length conversion factor of 1.3x. The new 10.1-megapixel...

A Case For The Traveling Photographer; Pelican’s RSV Series: The PCS283
George Schaub  |  Nov 01, 2007

Billed as a "large wheeled camera/computer case," the Pelican 283 (for short) can carry all your gear, and more, in a clever design that holds more than you could imagine in a carryon, wheeled case. In truth, when the entire bag is "together," it can be difficult to stow into an above-seat bin, my main criteria for a bag these days, and in fact the case is...

Wireless Radio Triggers; What No Studio Or Location Photographer Should Be Without
Steve Anchell  |  Nov 01, 2007

The first time I met a wireless radio trigger was while writing a review of White Lightning monolights, circa 1998. The Paul C.
