Trying Out My New Canon Rebel T6i

Posted Updated

This week I got a new Canon Rebel T6i. I’ve been in the Nikon camp for a long time and I’ve enjoyed the cameras I’ve used, but I’m at a point where I’d like to get more mileage out of my DSLR, not only as a camera, but as a webcam for when I do live streams/video calls. It’s much much easier (read: possible) to do that on the T6i, and not possible on the D3300, which is what I have. This weekend I got to take the camera out for a spin when the family went to Longwood Garden. Here’s some of my better shots (Flickr album here)

    There’s been a lot of hubbub about Net Neutrality again lately now that Obama has officially come out in support of it (something he supported when he ran in 2008, then seemed to not when he appointed Tom Wheeler to chair the FCC in 2013). This week I put together some notes for my students…

  1. Beautiful shots, Joe! Were you able to get the new one hooked up to your computer for a web cam? Also, I’d love to see specs on your new PC. I’m currently planning out a PC build myself.
