About
Born in May of 2009, PetaPixel is a blog about photography geared towards tech-savvy photo-enthusiasts. Our goal is to inform, educate, and inspire in all things related to photography.
In case you didn’t know, the “peta” in PetaPixel is the prefix that denotes 1015, just as the “mega” in megapixel denotes 106.
