A Time-Lapse of the World’s Largest Salt Flat, Where the Earth Reflects the Sky

Time-lapse photographer Enrique Pacheco shot this beautiful time-lapse at Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia, the world’s largest salt flat. The 4,000-square-mile area is a popular destination for photographers, as the ground reflects the sky in ways that blur the distinction between heaven and earth. Pacheco captures this natural beauty in motion in this 3-minute film titled “Reflections From Uyuni.” “The reflections produced by the water flooding in the rainy season are the main protagonist Enrique Pacheco´s camera,” the...

5 DIY Hacks to Have in Your Camera Bag

Close up of a DIY camera wrist strap made from paracord 1. Camera strap(s) I stopped using the camera strap that comes with the camera (DSLR) quite awhile ago now. My fundamental gripes were as follows: Not at all comfortable to wear around the neck, especially if you have a long lens attached to the camera. Didn’t particularly like the camera brand name in bright colors screaming out to potential camera thieves that you have a nice camera worth taking! The strap was a nuisance when the camera was mounted on a tripod. Because of the strap...

5 Tips for Geting Sharper Images When Doing Long Exposures

Long exposure photography makes it possible to show the passage of time in a still photograph. It does this by blurring moving elements and sharpening the static parts. But there is a downside to long exposures – any camera movement blurs the static elements. Here are four simple ways you can prevent unwanted blurring. 1. Use a Good Tripod For very short exposures there are ways to hold yourself and your camera steady, like: How to Reduce Camera Shake – 6 Techniques. However, when you’re taking an exposure of a few seconds, you need...

LG G4 puts focus on the camera

LG has announced its new flasgship smartphone, the LG G4. The new model takes over some of the G3’s design details, but from a hardware point of view it’s an all around new device. Specifically, it puts a lot of emphasis on camera specifications. In the camera module the 16MP 1/2.6-inch CMOS sensor is a touch larger than the 1/3-inch sensors in many other phones, and the F1.8 aperture is the fastest among the current crop of high-end mobile devices. The improved optical image stabilization system now works along 3 axis,...

Ansix Engineering has taken to Kickstarter with its LensPacks, a rear lens cap backed with Velcro that can be attached to the inside of a camera bag. It’s designed to speed up lens changes – when a lens swap is necessary, the photographer can twist the current lens into the waiting rear cap, then twist a different lens off of another cap.  The lens caps are said to fit into any camera bag. If a bag does not have a lining compatible with Velcro, Ansix is offering Velcro fasteners with adhesive backing....
