Awesome Nikon lens coffee mug!
My gf got this Nikon lens coffee mug for me as a Christmas present. Quite a conversation piece and even a decent coffee mug!

Holiday trip to Cali!
Took two weeks off for Christmas and New Years. My gf was only able to take one week, but we made the most of it. We had the entire family gathered for Christmas: Mom and Dad, all five kids with significant others, and amazingly all 11 grandkids! It was a special evening for sure. I …
The Nani and Scoobie show, Dec 13, 2015
Been dying to take my 70-200 f/2.8 out for a spin and decided to just take the dogs out in the backyard. Was hoping to get some panned shots of one of them in full stride, but sadly neither the sun nor the dogs were very cooperative. In any event, the lens is spectacular albeit a …
A cool big fat analog control for computer interfaces
I am totally on board with this concept! I’m sure I’ll find other uses, but I can see this being incredibly useful with fine-tuning Adobe Lightroom parameter adjustments which is problematic using a mouse. The $180US price tag is a bit steep and the estimated shipping isn’t until August 2016, but I’ll be watching this …
Incredible touch input pad coming
This touch input device looks very interesting. It will be interesting to see how well it works in the real world after it ships. Personally, I’ll be very interested in its use with graphics and music-creation applications. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mm2aWmA_2jw]
Save $20 (30%) on N-Photo digital subscription
I recently checked out a free issue of N-Photo, a magazine devoted to Nikon users, using their iOS app and really like it. Subscription through the N-photo app was a steep $59.99 which seemed like a lot for a monthly magazine. Now, I’ve been using Zinio for years to read various magazines on my mobile devices, …
Ducks! Trying out my new Nikon 70-200 f/2.8
Visited another local “pond” named Plaza Lake to try out my new Nikon 70-200 f/2.8. Overcast day and probably would have preferred the reach of my 150-600, but I had to get out of the house and try this baby! It’s a little heavy, but less than I expected. Sharp as a tack.
Nikon Nov 2015 Lens Deals with Discount Percentages!
I guess it’s just the accountant in me, but I have to see stuff like this in tables. I’ve highlighted 9% and above discounts. The 13% discount on the 70-200mm 2.8 is especially interesting to me ;-)
2015 Joint Base San Antonio Air Show at JBSA-Randolph
Went to the air show last weekend and tried out my Tamron 150-600mm F/5-6.3 mounted on my Nikon D7200. I also brought along my D750 and some primes so my bag was pretty darn heavy. I had plenty of length with the cropped sensor D7200 and Tamron, but getting good focus on propeller planes was …
SlyDogPhoto.com: Photography for cool dogs
I’ve been taking so many pictures of dogs recently, I decided to create a special home for these photos and, thus, SlyDogPhoto.com was born. From now on, that’s where I’m going to post all of my dog adoption and event photos. SeriouslyTrivial.com will continue to be my main blog for my tech, photography, finance and …
