Monday Links and News – 11.18.2013

by Daniel J. Hogan

I began blogging out our Disney World honeymoon. Plenty of photos for me to wade through, that’s for sure. I only (only) shot between 5 and 7 gigabytes of photos (RAW not JPEG, so that amount is actually less than you might think).

Here’s a photo of me on the Wild Africa Trek at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, ready for action with my Canon Rebel T2i and my 55-250mm telephoto lens.

The Canon 55-250mm is a decent telephoto lens, especially for beginners. It has the Image Stabilizer feature, which helps when you are really zoomed in on a subject–although nothing beats a tripod or a monopod. I couldn’t bring a tripod or a monopod on the Wild Africa Trek, so the Image Stabilizer came in handy.
