About photo.net:

photo.net is a site for serious photographers to connect with other photographers, explore photo galleries, discuss photography, share and critique photos, and learn about photography. The site began in 1993 as Philip Greenspun’s personal home page at MIT and has grown to become a community of photographers that includes more than 800,000 registered users working to help each other improve. Our editorial goal is to serve busy readers who want clear answers to questions. When we review equipment, we do it from the perspective of "In what kinds of photographic situations would this be the right choice?" In building community, we value members who provide constructive criticism and helpful assistance to other members. Join the Photo.net Community
