| Nikon J1 Review After much anticipation by fans, Nikon finally entered the EVIL or ILC race with two models in 2011; the Nikon 1 J1 and V1. The J1 is a stylish, powerful, yet easy to use camera that boasts some appealing features and abilities. For starters, the J1 sports an all new CX-format CMOS image sensor, which offers approx. 10-megapixels of resolution in a sensor that's slightly smaller than the Olympus/Panasonic Micro Four Thirds; but still much larger than typical point-n-shoots at 13.2 x 8,8mm. Nikon also created an all new lens mount system, the Nikon 1 mount and as of 4/2012 they have four lens offerings to choose from. Other important features include a 3.0-inch TFT LCD screen with 460,000 dots, Hybrid AF system using Contrast Detect AF along with Phase-detection AF built into the image sensor, native 3:2 aspect ration (16:9 also available), JPEG and NEF (RAW) file types, Full 1080p and 1080i video options, High speed still and video options, a pop-up flash unit, Li-ion battery pack, and SD/SDHC/SDXC memory card slot. All of these features are packed into a stylish exterior that is available in five colors; Silver, Black, White, Pink, and Red. Overall, on paper, and in hand, the Nikon J1 is quite impressive for a camera of this size...

Surfing ye olde Interwebs last week for funny photos to post on Steve's Facebook Timeline, I happened upon a stray Google Image depicting a little girl duct taped to a wall by her mischievous sister (see first photo below). Needless to say, I had to click on the full-sized image to see if it was on the up and up. It took me a couple seconds to realize it wasn't about some terrible parents who torture their children. Instead, I was introduced to a wonderfully creative and loving father, photographer Jason Lee, who collaborates with his two daughters, Krista and Kayla, to create digitally-enhanced photographs of the girls getting in all sorts of fabricated trouble...
