Happy Hog Rot

My old photo sidekick, Bill, sends this piece along.  Compared are relative burst speeds, their sounds, and other unusual information for Canon’s 1D X Mark II and Nikon’s D5 and D500.

Photojournalism, before my interests gravitated to something more like the realm of fine art pursuit, was my initial objective when I entered photography. And I soon learned that context was everything, when measuring the standards of truth and fairness projected by a photograph. How “real” a photograph is has been a dogged concern since the form’s 19th century inception, and continues to this day, particularly in an era of easy technical manipulation and easy means to juxtapose images with words.
