Yet, what about those situations when being on location at sunrise or sunset isn’t possible? You can pack up your bags and go home with an empty memory card, or make the most out of every opportunity. Allow me to let you in on a little secret not found in most photo magazines. Some of the best landscape opportunities can be found at midday when the...
read more6 Tips to Find Undiscovered Photography Locations in Your City
This location was discovered by walking BEYOND the main public area and exploring nearby dirt paths. There’s nothing quite like the rush of finding a nook, a cranny, a wall, a corner, or a building that looks amazing in photos but has not been fully discovered by others just yet. Ask any photographer about unique locations, and most likely they will cringe a bit at the thought of giving up their secret spots. How, then, do you find new locations for yourself? It’s not always necessary to go outside of your city (or even your neighborhood!) to...

Accessory maker Moment, best known for its high-quality add-on lenses and the Moment case, has added a new lens to its lineup. The Moment Macro lens offers a 25mm focal length and 10x magnification. In contrast to most available smartphone macro lenses it also features a more complex multi-element design and ED-glass for improved image quality in addition to multi-layer anti-reflective coatings.

read moreWhite House ban on photos and social media has ended
The White House has ended the ban on photography and social media use during public tours, and is instead urging visitors to take and share photos from tours using the applicable hashtag #WhiteHouseTour. The photography ban had been in place for 40 years, and was instated in part to reduce the damaging effects of flash photography on artwork. Michelle Obama announced the ban’s end early Wednesday via a video posted to Instagram in which she rips in half one of the White House’s former signs forbidding photos...
read moreCanon warns about dangers of counterfeit camera gear
If 4 of these have the same life as one Canon flash, then maybe Canon has a point. For most users who aren’t shooting commercially, the knock off flash will live just fine. If I paid full Canon price for the knock off I’d be angry, but if I knowingly bought the knockoff for a discount, understanding the tradeoff I’d made, then I just made a choice. Canon wants to protect its market, we want to spend less. Ultimately, if the knock off is good enough, it puts Canon at a disadvantage and Canon has to lower their price to...
read moreAnalysis: Sony a7R II and RX100 IV autofocus systems
Sony recently shook things up with the announcement of the 4K-capable 42.4MP, backside-illuminated full-frame a7R II mirrorless camera, alongside stacked 1″-type sensors in the updates to the popular RX100 and RX10 lines. While stills and video quality are sure to break new ground with these updates, perhaps even more interesting are the autofocus improvements. The a7R II offers compelling improvements that go above and beyond updating AF in the a7 lineup. In fact, the improvements potentially yield an AF system...
read moreSony to Raise $4B to Ramp up Production of Sensors
Sony announced a few years ago that digital imaging would be one of its three main pillars (with the other two being games and mobile). It looks like the decision is paying off, and Sony is doubling down on its plans. After making 40% of all image sensors sold in 2014, Sony is now announcing that it will raise $4 billion in funding in order to increase how many sensors it can produce. In its announcement, Sony says it plans to issue new shares of stock and put the money towards “increasing production capability of, and research and...

If you’re a fan of both photography and the TV show How It’s Made, here’s a behind-the-scenes video that might be of interest to you. Rosco just released this 1-minute video showing how it creates its Roscolux swatchbooks, which contain a small sample filter of almost every Roscolux filter. We see that the individual filter sheets are gathered by hand, arranged into large stacks, and then turned into individual booklets with the help of a guillotine machine. This is “the care and attention to detail that goes into making the most...

Now the company is back again by announcing a brand new macro lens. The new macro lens from Moment features 10x magnification at a 25mm focal distance. Unlike most other attachable smartphone lenses, the Moment macro consists...

It’s like deja-vu, all over again. A month after a fan photographer caused a horrible crash at Italy’s top bike race, another DSLR shooter has caused a crash at the British National Road Race Championships. The man was using a DSLR and a telephoto lens on Sunday, photographing the cyclists with one foot in the cobbled Lincoln road. When cyclist Kristian House came near, instead of moving off the road, the man inexplicably stood his ground until House collided with him, sending House and his bike tumbling. The incident was captured by...

Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
