Ever since I updated my iPhone XS to iOS 13, I’ve gotten strange banding artifacts randomly in some of my photos when using the main camera on the default photo app. Happening primarily under LED or fluorescent lighting, a pattern of alternating yellow and blue lines emerges from one edge of the photo. This wasn’t […]
Read More...New: Canon G5X Mk II Review
There’s nothing like a high-quality raw one-inch pocket camera to take with you on the road, and I’ve spent the past few weeks testing out the new Canon G5X Mk II, taking it to Ireland and beyond.

Update: My full review of the Canon G5X Mk II is now online. Check it out! While I was working on building a full review of the Canon G5X Mk II (coming very soon!), I couldn’t help but wonder if smartphone cameras had gotten so good that there isn’t much of a point for advanced […]
Read More...Spectra Film Discontinued by Polaroid Originals (Updated April 2020)

While many writers out there love Scrivener and other programs, I like to stick to the familiar confines of Microsoft Word.

Read More...New: Nikon Fun Touch 2 Review
My quest for a great 35mm pocket camera takes me to the Nikon Fun Touch 2, which turns out to be not so fun after all. An inability to focus on close subjects and no way to turn flash off makes this camera less capable than even disposable 35mm cameras like the Fuji Quicksnap. Check […]
