Mouse and Keyboard
It was certainly interesting to read everyone s thoughtful discussions of camera viewfinders. Thanks for that. The viewfinder is perhaps the most important feature of most cameras for most users, and yet one of the least discussed. A great viewfinder is worth buying a camera to get.
I wanted to follow up briefly about my mouse and keyboard problems, which I wrote about on February 3rd. I m not an expert on either product type. I had been having persistent problems with my Apple Magic Mouse 2. And my Microsoft 4000 Ergonomic keyboard had evidently been discontinued, which was causing me some consternation. I ve bought a new one of those every year or two for probably the past fifteen years, since I first started having some signs of repetitive stress hand problems.
Two New: Adger Cowans and Meshell Ndegeocello
I love it that there are so many artists out there who are completely unknown to me. Always somebody new to discover. And you never know when or how you ll do so. Ultimately, I have Black History Month to thank for these two, one a photographer, the other a musician, both new to me.
The first is photographer
Adger Cowans, who is now 84. I found out about him through our friend Carl Weese, who sent me a link to a review of a photography show that appeared in
The Nation. The show, at the Whitney, features a little-known group of Black photographers from the 1960s and 70s called the Kamoinge Workshop.
Of all the viewfinders in all the cameras you ve ever used, which would you say is your favorite? If you don t have one, no worries. You can sit this round out. "Finding the view" is one of the basic functions.
