How to Avoid and Reduce Noise in Your Images

A Post By: Barry J Brady Reducing noise in your images can make a huge difference to their quality We have all seen it in our images, that uneven grainy look that makes our images look a little unappealing. In the days of film, noise was called grain and it looked better (even the word grain sounded better) but the digital equivalent of noise can often make a good image look bad. The first question we need to answer is: What is noise? Generally speaking, noise is defined as aberrant pixels. That means pixels that are not representing the...

Couple Photography: Telling Their Love Story

A Post By: Melinda Smith A while ago, I went to the funeral for my husband’s dear Grandpa Wes, and I looked through old photos of him and his beautiful sweetheart, Daphene, who passed away just 6 months before (they couldn’t live without each other for very long). They had photos when they were young snuggled up together, holding hands, and even kissing, and it struck me how rare that was. Old photos usually are much more formal, and don’t show a lot of emotion or candid feelings. They also had more recent photos that showed the...

Relonch brings APS-C image sensor to the iPhone

Relonch brings APS-C image sensor to the iPhone

Photokina’s big brand launches often overshadow the announcements from lesser known or smaller manufacturers, but we were lucky enough to spot the Relonch camera in Hall 2. And it’s definitely one of the more interesting exhibits at this year’s show. The Relonch is a “slide-on” camera module for the iPhone 5 and 6 that comes with an APS-C sized image sensor and a fast prime lens. However, at this stage most of the exhibits at the Relaunch booth are non-working design models. The only working unit is a...

Interview: Canon’s Chuck Westfall Discusses the 7D Mark II

Posted by on 18th, Sep, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

A journalist should ask the tough questions and not just let Canon representative make an online advertisement. The man talks extensively about video but the changes are minor, late and not substantial. No articulated screen, no 4K, low end 4:2:0, no focus peaking, no advanced codec, no WiFi, no touch focus, no word about full sensor readout or line skipping. All of that make it inferior to the latest MILCs of Panasonic, Sony and other mirrorless brands, or even to Panasonic latest compacts.It seems like Canon still believe that their only...

Photokina 2014: Samsung stand report

Posted by on 18th, Sep, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

@onlooker, specs sell cameras, especially in internet age. What other APS-C camera can claim 15 fps at full 28 MP resolution, 4K and UHD video recording, use of new h.265, etc, etc. Basically every feature of the camera is as good or better than any other competitor. Oh, and it has some of the best WiFi features of any camera on the market, sounds like it can geotag using info from your phone over Bluetooth, the remote control App is very good, and NFC is a nice quick way to start things off. Even with my NX30 I can hit a couple buttons and...

Nice collection of pictures. I have a very good idea of the camera’s abilities in many fronts… Everything is in focus, nice DR, great subject isolation, canon colors…etc. my only beef is with the resolution, +2MP after 5 years is pretty few.

Beginner’s Guide to Tripods

A Post By: John Davenport The lowly tripod – the unsung hero behind so many fantastic shots – finally gets its day in the spotlight here on dPS. Do you want to photograph the stars? You’ll need a tripod. Want to get silky smooth waterfall photos? Yep tripod again. Need to photograph an HDR to extend the dynamic range of your scene? Oh yes, tripod required there too. Basically, if you want to do anything more than point and shoot, you’ll need to bring your three legged friend along with you. I’ve decided to write this article in...

10 Must-Have Camera Settings for Concert Photography

A Post By: Matthias Hombauer The Rolling Stones: Nikon D800, 185mm at f4, 1/320, ISO 1600 The correct camera settings are key to getting awesome concert photos in low light situations. Maybe you were in this situation before. You used the full automatic mode in front of the stage and – BAM- the little flash monster sitting on top of your camera pops up and throws the ugliest light you can think of onto the singer’s face. At this point, a lot of frustrated concert photography beginners just take their cameras home and never shoot a concert...

Nikon D750: What you need to know

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

The Nikon D750 offers a compelling feature set for its price point. If you care about image quality (particularly Raw), as well as the AF tracking capabilities that only a dedicated PDAF system with input from a separate RGB sensor can provide, then this camera literally has no competition at this price point. Save for the D810, which is more expensive, and – at least spec wise – may not offer the low-light AF capabilities of the D750 (we’ll have to verify this in testing, though). On a personal note, I myself am torn...
