Outdoor photography is a great activity. It associates going outside in the wild (or at least in the free nature) and our passion for photography. But it can be also prepared on the web. This is the reason I collected a few good web addresses for web sites taking seriously the outdoor photographer needs and…

Canon 40D crushes 30D prices
Sometimes, I like to browse what is appearing in the ads. Today, I noticed that the announcement of the new Digital SLR from Canon, the 40D replacement for the 20D/30D line, is driving prices down for the 30D. If you want a good price, you can check by yourself, but I found the following offers…
