6 Photography Projects to do With Your Kids

A Post By: Beryl Young Her eyes were like saucers as joy filled them wide. You could already sense the smile that was about to land upon her face. She was becoming a photographer like mommy. It was always my intention to pass along my old point-and-shoot camera to my daughter, but it wasn’t until she turned four years old that I found her asking to take pictures more and more and I felt like she was ready to inherit this gift. As a mom perhaps you’ve found the camera to be an amazing source of discovering passion and purpose through...

How to Use Rhythm and Pattern to Create Stronger Compositions

A Post By: Andrew S. Gibson After I had written my article about juxtaposition and contrast I realized that one of the photos also perfectly illustrated the concept of rhythm in composition. Here it is (I’ve added arrows to show you the way the eye moves through the photo). The rhythm comes from the way the eye moves from the first tower to the second, then on to the statue. These three focal points are linked by colour (they are a similar shade of brown) and shape (they are all narrow shapes emerging from the bottom of the frame). The...

Canon introduces new $78K 50-1000mm cine lens

Canon has taken the wraps off its new 50-1000mm CN20x 50 IAS H E1/P1 lens, expanding its cine-servo offerings with what the maker says is the first-ever lens boasting a combined 20x magnification, integrated 1.5x extender, and a removable servo drive. The lens is targeted specifically at nature and sports television productions. The CN20x 50 IAS H E1/P1’s servo drive has been updated over previous offerings, with the removability making it more practical for broadcasting purposes than other cine lenses. The new model supports 12-pin...

Apple unveils iPad Air 2, iPad Mini 3 and new 27in iMac with ‘5K’ display

After unveiling its new iPhone models last month, Apple announced two new tablets today – the iPad Air 2 and the iPad mini 3. The Air 2 comes with a new thinner body that measures only 6.1mm. In addition to the Silver models there is now a new Gold color option.  Under the hood, the new Apple A8X chipset boasts more transistors than its A7 predecessor and Apple claims that it is therefore 40% faster at the CPU level. The new tablet also gains the TouchID fingerprint sensor we have already seen used in the iPhone 5S, 6 and 6...

Adobe releases new ‘Aperture Importer’ plugin for Lightroom

Posted by on 17th, Oct, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

“It is my understanding that “non-destructive edits” are the result of using RAW images rather than JPEGs”. Nope. Non-destructive edits is basically where you can undo your edits and revert back to the original. You can edit RAWs destructively. You can edit JPEGs non-destructively. It’s just a philosophy of editing, and nothing to do with file format. But yes, Lightroom is built around non-destructive editing, as others have mentioned. Source Article from...

Production-ready: Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH4 Review

Posted by on 17th, Oct, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

Jay, you would be surprised… Here in Brazil (and also, I guess a lot of countries that are not so technological advanced), people are rarely aware of the existence of the GH line. Small, low budget video guys continue to use Canon Rebels and 60Ds, with their ultra mushy “1080p” (more like 500p…), believing Canon is the way to go for professionals. I have an old GH2, and tried to convince all my fellow buddies about its video capabilities without any success. They simply fail to see how a little toy can be any better...

How to Add Blur to Your Images for the Right Reasons

A Post By: Harry Fisch Blurring is a Tool, Not a Gimmick Adding blur or movement to a photo just for the sake of it is the same as a magic trick; razzle-dazzle but without purpose. Using a blur effect makes sense when you actually wants to say something specific with the photo. Sometimes it’s to create a sense of speed, and sometimes it’s to add an ethereal, soft kind of ambiance to the shot, but it’s not something to use just because. Know What You Want to Convey Although it’s true that sometimes a random or accidental shot yields...

Dodging and Burning to Create More Effective Black and White Images

A Post By: Alex Morrison With the huge assortment of software and plugins you have at your disposal these days, the photo processing technique of burning and dodging is practically ancient. It was (and still is) one of the most common ways of enhancing film images in the darkroom, and everyone from Ansel Adams to Imogen Cunningham used it. They used it because it is powerful and simple and still is to this day. With all the complicated plugins and post-processing procedures you have at your disposal, you won’t get any better bang for the...

Google launches Nexus 6 with 13MP and OIS

Google has launched the Nexus 6, its latest showcase phone that comes with a brand new version of Android, 5.0 “Lollipop”, and an interesting-looking camera specification. Nexus devices are usually designed and made by Google in cooperation with a hardware manufacturer. After previous Nexus phones from HTC, Samsung and LG, this time it’s Motorola’s turn. In light of this, it’s no surprise that the Nexus 6 looks very much like an enlarged version of the recently announced new Moto X, with the same metal...

Raw conversions added to Canon EOS 7D Mark II: Real-world samples (beta)

@ josephI actually don’t really care what makes it as long as it’s there in my raws @ cgarradfeel free to replace “better sensored cameras” with “Aptina, Samsung, Toshiba, CMOSIS, OmniVision, or also Sony” I didn’t even say the camera is crap or anything, why so nervous? The 7DmkII is certainly a nice camera for it’s sports and action niche due to the superb autofocus. If you tell me why I should use a DSLR for my landscapes or macros and why this sensor should be good enough for me then go...

Quick Review: Using Iconosquare to manage and grow your Instagram following

Iconosquare (free) Sharing your photography on social media is a fun way to interact with friends, fellow photography enthusiasts and fans of your work. As a full-time photographer myself, I’ve used almost every form of social media to share my photos at some point. With thousands of followers on Twitter and Facebook, and over a million on Google+, I recently set out to build my Instagram following. The problem I ran into almost immediately was the limitations in the Instagram mobile app. Browsing large numbers of photos from people...
