Nikon: Focus & Meter Interlocution

Spot metering is locked to the AF point (it will try and put whatever is under the AF point at middle grey without regard for the rest of the scene)

Centre weighted is completely uncoupled from the AF point, will meter from the centre of the viewfinder (you can set how big an area it assesses, or you can have it average out the entire scene)

Matrix is biased towards the AF point but takes the rest into account.

Nikon: Battery Recall

If youve got an EN-EL15 with an "E" or "F" as the 9th digit in the 14 digit part number, you should stop using it and follow Nikons instructions to return it and have it replaced.

The New Lytro Arrived

First Days

Lenny arrived today (all our cameras are named), he is a Lytro. Maybe one of the first, since we were in the first batch shipped. The folks of lytro are in Sx this weekend showing them off. Here is one of the first 5 shots made with him:lillyTro.jpg

Design Drop

I expect there will be many “black” shots with this camera, those shots of lens caps, since the off switch is hard to hid, while the shutter is easy to click. I propose that these be called L2C2’s — Lytro Lens Cap Captures.
