5D Mark III & Long Exposure Noise Reduction (LENR)

Camera and Lenses, Gear & TechnicalBy Patrick EndresDecember 21, 20128 Comments

Is the in-camera Long Exposure Noise Reduction necessary when using a camera in cold weather? This is a question I have wondered about for a long time so I finally did a more specific test. First of all, what is Long Exposure Noise Reduction? Here is the scoop: When LENR is turned on, the camera…

Grizzly bear eyes

Bears, Denali National Park, InteriorBy Patrick EndresDecember 19, 20124 Comments

To take a little break from winter and the subzero temperatures hovering over Alaska’s interior, I went back in my summer archives and reviewed some photos taken in June. This picture is from a great encounter with a young grizzly bear, that curiously posed for a long time, which in wildlife photography, is anything longer…

Canon 5D Mark III LP-E6 Battery test in -31 degree temperatures

Gear & TechnicalBy Patrick EndresDecember 17, 20123 Comments

For those of you who own or care about cold weather battery performance in the Canon 5D Mark III, I further optimized on the recent cold snap in Fairbanks and did another battery test to see how well the LP-E6 performed in colder weather. At minus -31 degrees F, the camera and battery still held…

Adelie Penguins

Antarctica, Beyond AlaskaBy Patrick EndresDecember 12, 20122 Comments

As I prepare for an upcoming trip to Antarctica, I was doing some photo reminiscing from my travels there two years ago. Since then, Lighrtoom 4 has been released so I went back to a few files to re process them with the new algorithms of LR4. I came across this photo of Adelie penguins launching off an iceberg.…

Video of wolf / moose predation

Denali National Park, Interior, Moose, Nature, Wildlife, WolfBy Patrick EndresDecember 7, 20121 Comment

A few years ago I witnessed and photographed an amazing natural history moment. The Grant Creek wolf pack in Denali Park attacked and killed a baby moose while the cow moose attempted to fend off the predators. Someone sent me a link yesterday to a video taken of that event, the first one that I’ve…

Canon 5D Mark III and the cold

Camera and Lenses, Gear & TechnicalBy Patrick EndresDecember 5, 201212 Comments

I’m often asked about how my camera functions in the cold. So far, in my practical experience, I’ve never really experienced camera failure from the cold with Canon’s 1D and 5D series cameras. I usually fail first. So, for the curious ones out there who own a Canon 5D III and wonder how it may perform in…

Camera lens use in 2012

Gear & TechnicalBy Patrick EndresDecember 3, 20124 Comments

2012 camera lens use by percentage While the year is not over yet, it is shaping up to be one that measures among the least amount of pictures taken in a given year. While it was a very good year in many ways, I simply did not shoot as many frames. As one curious to some degree…

Hand holding telephoto lenses

Arctic, Arctic Refuge, Polar bears, WildlifeBy Patrick EndresNovember 28, 20125 Comments

If there is one excellent feature among the new genre of super telephoto lenses, i.e., the Canon 500mm in this case, it is the Image Stabilization technology. In many situations, I end up photographing without a tripod. It is counter-conventional wisdom for many, but when an effective method and style is learned, there is a…

Crazy aurora corona

Arctic, Aurora borealis, NatureBy Patrick EndresNovember 26, 20124 Comments

Its been quite on the blog here as I enjoyed a little vacation and have been completing my first E-Book, which I’m hoping to have ready before December 20. In the next few weeks I’ll be releasing the title and other details. This is one of the images from that book, that I took in…

Antarctica again

Antarctica, Glaciers, LandscapesBy Patrick EndresNovember 16, 20124 Comments

For those who have read this blog over time, you may remember that I shared some experiences from my trip to Antarctica two years ago. I’m repeating a similar, although slightly less extensive trip this year in January. The Expedition leader is a long time friend and colleague Hugh Rose, and the line up of…
