DPReview’s Canon 7D review

By Jan Dembowski on November 8, 2009

I purchased my Nikon D300s for a simple reason: I was sold on the D300 and I’m a stickler for getting the current model. I’ve been very satisfied with it.

Nikon D60 and auto ISO

By Jan Dembowski on September 26, 2008

I got to learn about a useful DSLR feature called auto ISO.
