The D100 was Nikon's first "consumer-level" DSLR, in fact only its second solo DSLR outing. As with the D1, the company got some things wrong on the D100. It's OK, they fixed the problems in the followup Nikon D70. The Nikon D100 is a good camera with a resolution of 6.1 megapixels. You don't need more than 6 megapixels to get really good images. I started working with the D100 the moment I got it. I wanted to find out what all the fuss was about. See, a kind of cult has grown up around the D100. As I went through all of the D100 images I shot from the day I got it to the present, I kind-of understood why. Some of these images I would swear were shot with much newer cameras. The sharpness and color are pretty damned good. I'm certainly happy with them. And with the Nikon D100

It all began with the end of the world. Martin Fahy and friends made it out of the cities, past earthquakes, hurricanes, people with guns, to the Adirondacks where they hoped to sit out The Fall. The world became very dangerous. Some of them stepped up, often reluctantly, to fight for a future. Martin and his friends became heroes, legends, despite not really wanting to be. He had been a failed, well, everything, but he became a legendary leader. He left the sanctuary to live quietly in the desert. Instead, he found blasted to the 1800s, facing a cataclysm bigger than The Fall. It wasn't his mission. It should have been the Time Agents handling it. It wasn't. Martin Fahy again stepped up. It wasn't all bad. He met the love of his life, a girl named Chloe, born in 1829. Once the two of them were together, they formed a force - with the Time Agents and Martin's colleagues - that took on Time itself. This first omnibus collects the first four novels in the Time series. The mission continues...

There's nothing like holding a pulp magazine; smelling that wonderful smell of the decaying acidic paper, seeing the garish brightly colored cover, looking for the names that became legends. Since 1978, I always wanted to create, edit, design and publish my own "pulp" speculative fiction - science fiction, fantasy, horror, weird, cyberpunk, etc. - magazine. I've tried many times. I know it's a ridiculous pursuit, especially since magazines themselves virtually are extinct as of 2018. Reading the non-fiction in the pulps is a glimpse into how scientists and writers thought the future would happen. The way the future was. This is an attempt to feel a little of that. It may or may not be a one-off, depending upon how many writers I can get to contribute. At least one issue, the one you hold in your hands, of Phenomenal Stories does exist, and that's one more pulp magazine than existed before. Perhaps one day, you can read this and think, hmm, that's the way the future was.

Simply put, medium-format photography is quite a bit more complex than shooting with 35mm film SLRs or 35mm-style DSLRs. It takes a bit more skill - and experience - to handle medium-format cameras. Not only do you need to learn to think differently about how you shoot, but you also have a whole new type of equipment to learn. Medium-format cameras produce bigger images, which allows for more detail and greater enlargement. And because they, in general, were designed for professional photographers, the lenses tend to be of better quality that most 35mm lenses, which also adds to the detail in the images. In this book, we'll take a look at medium-format SLRs and TLRs, and we'll even touch upon some other types. We'll also consider a few lenses, although these largely are a matter of choice. And there are far fewer choices for medium-format cameras than for other types. Time to do some weight training and heft those medium-format cameras and lenses into position. Let's go.

It always was The Dream: The Hasselblad 500c Never mind that it was impractical for a photographer without a studio, or that it cost a bundle, or that the odds against ever owning one were big. There it was, a monolith above all other cameras. It was in the pages of the photo magazines, as advertisements occasionally, as part of an article occasionally. The two beacons of perfection, allegedly, were the Hasselblad 500c and the Leica whatever. For some reason, the Leica never caused a spark in me back then. Now, sure, but not then. Canon, Minolta, Nikon and Olympus cameras also were dreams, at the top of many of my wish lists. The Hasselblad 500c, though... that was on a level all its own. Then, suddenly, digital photography dawned and everyone was ditching their film gear. A fellow photographer said, "Hey, do you still want a Hasselblad because a friend of mine's selling one." It still was more than two weeks' salary, but it was cheaper than it had been. I had to have it. And it is an amazing camera.

Images Magazine, Spring 2019, Vol. 1, No. 1
Every sighted person learns to see, to make mental connections with what images come into the eyes, and interpret them as reality. It happens starting pretty much at birth, continues through adolescence and into adulthood. At some point, though, the growth kind a stops. The process continues, but most people make rapid assumptions upon what they see and move on. It's normal and natural. For a photographer, the process is the same to a certain point, but then, to really learn to be a photographer each person must learn to see all over again. This process takes place, no matter the innate talent level. Certainly, some people have more natural abilities to see photographic possibilities than others, but even they must learn to, ahem, focus the ability. This magazine is, again ahem, focused upon the ability to see photographically. It's for both photographers and non-photographers who appreciate the art.

There's something odd about twin-lens reflex (TLR) film cameras, but very appealing. I can't really explain it. TLR cameras are bulky, awkward to use and, well, kind-of weird. Still, I love picking one up and taking it out to shoot. Mamiya TLRs comprise a rare line of TLR cameras in that they were the only pro TLR cameras that had interchangeable lenses other than Contaflex. That fact alone made me long for one a long time. When I bought my Yashica Mat EM, there were Mamiya TLR cameras available, but usually at two to three times the cost. Like the other medium-format (MF) cameras - Hasselblad, Bronica, Pentax, etc. - the Mamiyas were far out of reach. That is until around 2003 when photographers were ditching their film cameras, and selling them cheap. They may not be as cheap now, but they're still worth the prices. As I said, shooting with a TLR is an odd experience, but one definitely worth experiencing.

We press on with the third volume of Phenomenal Stories Quarterly, a collection of the April, May and June issues of Phenomenal Stories for 2019. Joining the Phenomenal Stories fray are new and veteran writers working in new - for us - areas such as nostalgia and murder mysteries.

It's also a somewhat cheaper means to get all the issues together. This issue contains stories by Martin G. Collins, Richard H. Nilsen, Mary Brookman, Haldor R. Hallum, J.D. Hayes-Canell, Bridget Flynn-O'Leary, Delia McTavish and classic reprints by Henry Kuttner, H.P. Lovecraft and Clark Ashton Smith.

Phenomenal Novels Magazine #01, July 2019, Vol. 1, No. 1
Just how many magazines can we create based upon the simple concept of a modern-day speculative fiction pulp magazines? Well, at least this one more. The novels we serialize in Phenomenal Stories are, well, phenomenal, and deserve publication as solo books, which our parent company is doing. In the meantime, though, we just thought it would be quite fun to produce our own novels magazine. And with four other magazines now in print, we certainly aren't over worked, punch drunk, sleep deprived or delusional. Really. So, here we present one of Richard H. Nilsen's first novels, the young adult fantasy story called The Book of Power. It was serialized in Phenomenal Stories between December 2018 and May 2019. And it's a lot of fun, so it's well past time you started reading it, don't you think?

Phenomenal Stories #11 is our first Special Issue, focusing upon the editor's obsession with once-world-famous author Robert W. Chambers. The editor literally wrote the book - the only biography - about Chambers, a writer who influenced such luminaries as H.P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Robert E. Howard and many others. This Special Issue features two of Chambers' classic horror stories - thankfully in the public domain - "The Yellow Sign" and "Repairer of Reputations." Also featured are cover art depicting Chambers by Carole A. Tomlinson and takes on Chambers from J.D. Hayes-Canell and Richard H. Nilsen, as well as the 2nd part of the 'The Darkness' from Carlos Rios. Don't worry, we're also continuing the Adirondack mystery story of Hal Johnson in 'An Old-Fashioned Shooting, ' as well as the science fiction novel 'Time: Book 01: Timenami' from Shawn M. Tomlinson. Phenomenal Stories is a modern-day tribute to the science fiction/horror/fantasy/speculative pulp magazines of the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s
