Camera Land's Post SHOT Show Specials!

Camera Land's Post SHOT Show Specials

It's been a few weeks since SHOT Show ended and we have almost organized all the shipments and have put together exciting things for 2013.
We have had meetings with Brunton as well as with Leupold and we are pleased to announce that we are moving forward to be authorized dealers for both.

Our meeting with Brunton was enlightening. They have been around a long time, however, they have been a non-player in the optics industry, IMO. They did little if any marketing, which is a shame as the quality of their products is amazing. After seeing their product line we can't wait to get all their glass in here.
To start off running with them we have brought in a significant quantity of their Brunton Echo 3-9x40 - BDC Reticle (Part# F-ECHO3940-5) which we are offering for only $149.99 with a little bit of a twist. To introduce the Brunton line we are offering this scope with a "Buy it, Try it, Love it or Return it" sale. That's right, if you get this scope, use it and do not agree that it is more than worth the $149.99 you paid for it, send it back for a full refund for up to 2 months from the time you bought it.
To make their products worry free they have also made very clear that their warranty is an all inclusive, use it hard with no worries as you are covered for life, warranty.
I think in the next short while you'll be seeing lots of their products as well as positive reviews being posted by guys who discover the Brunton line.

We are in the process of finilizing everything up with Leupold and I would think by the end of the month we'll be authorized dealers. Please feel free to contact me with your thoughts as to which products we should be strong with as you probably know thier product line better that we do (at least for the time being).
We will work very closely with the Leupold rep to bring news, products and service to you.

Photo Tip Of The Week! The Benefits of Shooting on Overcast Days:

While photographers understand the benefits of sunny days and how to use sunny skies to an advantage, some shy away from shooting on overcast days for fear of not getting the benefit of bright light.  Shooting when it is overcast can actually yield some of the best images because the light is more blended and muted. 

Overcast skies can be extremely flattering when photographing people because the clouds diffuse and filter the light so that it is more even, which can have a positive effect on skin tones.  Harsh rays can sometimes overpower a portrait or a nature scene whereas overcast lighting is more even and soft. 

An overcast day is also a great opportunity to convey a particular mood, especially when coupled with nature scenes.  The gloomy feel is articulated through the even grey skies and the surroundings, and in this instance, the environment is the perfect catalyst to convey somber settings or emotions.

Full-Frame vs. Crop Sensors Explained

Until recently, DSLR cameras were restricted to smaller sensors than their film counterparts. These sensors, called crop sensors, are still very common. However, as a photographer, it’s important to understand the limitations and guidelines for lenses and sensors in any camera you are using.

In this video, film expert Karl Taylor explains the difference between full and crop sensor cameras. He shows examples of photographs taken with each, explains how lenses and sensors work together, and offers advice on taking great pictures with every sensor.

If you’re interested in investing in your photography by upgrading to a DSLR camera, understanding camera sensors is important. At Camera Land of NYC, we offer great cameras from Canon, Leica, and other brands that offer the sensors and other features you want. Call us today at (646) 789-4830 for more information.
