I'm a Microsoft Software Development Engineer on the Trustworthy Computing Team. I've worked at several security related places previously, including Malware Bytes and PreEmptive Solutions.

On StackOverflow I mostly answer related questions, though I occasionally forray into and a couple of others.

I am the author of pevFind, a component of the ComboFix malware removal tool, and volunteer at BleepingComputer.com as a malware response instructor. My Twitter account is @MalwareMinigun.

comment Where should one go in terms of equipment for event shooting after a D7000 kit?
I certainly have been doing the "shoot a lot of pictures" bit -- Just for that hour long awards ceremony I think I took about 250. Given the low shutter speed I've been taking advantage of the high speed of the camera to increase the likelihood of getting a non-blurry shot. (As it was, those two pictures I posted are the only reasonably sharp ones out of about 20 :( )

You're saying the difference between the 1.8 and the 1.4 is big enough to justify the 4x price increase (at 35mm)? (At least the 1.4 50mm is more reasonably priced...)

comment What techniques should be used when attempting bird photography?
+1 -- think you meant "advice" rather than "advise". Advise is a verb :)

comment How should Nikon be pronounced?
@Jam: There's little difference between the two when we're comparing English and Japanese. More to the point "English English" and "American English" are the same language -- we might generally use different words and pronounce some things a bit differently, but I can go to England and be understood just fine, just as an Englishman can come to the US and be understood just fine.

comment Where is the color mosaic filter on a DSLR sensor?
I don't believe you can take that off. There's an anti-aliasing filter and the color array that are made as part of the sensor. (The article doesn't remove the color array bit, just the IR filter)

comment Is pincushion or barrel distortion really all that bad in a lens?
@Ysap: Rounding errors, and the compressing twice. I'm not sure too how EXIF information in JPEGs works... Lightroom uses that to correct specifically for the camera and lens model you're using.

Hmm.. never thought of looking at it that way. Batch processing in lightroom it is. :)

Do keep in mind that it's always going through the computer in some capacity to make the JPEG, but I see what you're saying :)
