Part two: Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH4 / Sony Alpha 7S Comparative Review
Serious Sam: I’m not disputing the fact that better glass exists, you seem to have missed that point where I acknowledged that fact. Some companies, Nikon, Fuji, and Samsung do indeed use the marketing term “ED”, Zeiss doesn’t. Nor do Leica and Canon. You seem real confused about this. The fact remains that clearly Samsung uses very very good glass in 4 lenses faster than f/2.8. That wiki link says nothing about some minimum standard for “ED” glass. You were wrong about Samsung NX lenses, and got called out...
read moreInstagram Hyperlapse app creates smooth time-lapse video
Lars, does the app have to speed up the motion? You mention speeding it up up to 12 times. But what if you want to keep the motion at 1x speed, but just smooth it out. Could it do that, or is the speeding up essential to the smoothing process? I’m asking as if the app does not have to speed up the footage, this could end the need for steadycam use. Then one could keep the audio that goes with the video. I’d check it myself, but I’m an Android man, so no access to the app as yet. Source Article from...
read moreOpinion: Do we really need the Fuji X30?
With the camera industry moved on somewhat since the birth of the Fuji X series compact, is there still room for a 12-million-pixel compact in a less-than compact body? The X30 (left) positioned alongside its predecessor the X20. The two cameras share the same 12MP X-Trans sensor, but the X30 boasts some worthwhile refinements, including a built-in EVF, articulating rear LCD and much better battery life. I wonder if we should expect the third incarnation of any camera to be rather more significantly different from the first than Fuji’s...

read moreThree Types of Light: Diffused, Backlight and Reflected – What are They and When to use Them
A Post By: Natasha Cadman Light: it is the main component for every image that you will take. It does however come in many different forms, producing very different results. Some of these types of light are diffused, backlit and reflected. There will be times when each of these types of light is more readily available than another, or even in some cases multiple types of light at once. Some people create their full photographic style by using a certain type more, or less, exclusively in their work. But, knowing how to first spot the different...

A Post By: Valerie Jardin Humor may very well be the toughest assignment the street photographer will take on. It takes a keen eye to see humor in the streets and some skills to capture it in a fraction of a second. Here are a few things to consider before you head out on a quest to photograph humorous situations in the streets: Humor can be subtle ©Valerie Jardin Story in a frame Just like a good joke, no explanation should be necessary. A catchy caption should suffice to enhance the humor conveyed in the image. Many newspapers used to have...
read moreX-Trans excellence? Fujifilm X30 First Impressions Review
That pleasure factor is high in my list, and that’s why my camera is the X-Pro1 with the 14mm F2.8 almost glued to it. Shutter speed dial, aperture ring, focus scale… Now that I saw it in the X-T1, all I miss is the ISO dial. The Sony lacks all that, but so does the X30 (well, except for the comp. dial, that I don’t find that appealing when the other controls aren’t ‘traditional’) and the Coolpix. Yet Sony managed to put a tilting LCD and an EVF (I think the Nikon lacks both), and, compared to the Fuji, a...
read moreThe X-factor: Hands-on with Fujifilm’s X30
On the contrary, I’d rather like better the previous design models BUT I’ll give it that it must be tough to keep that [design] with all the newer specs like the improved sensor and lens… Wait! They aren’t! This fixed zoom series had a few trademarks along its overall experience design and size, mainly its IQ given by its sensor+lens combination that should already be improved by now, instead of making up an old lady which doesn’t make sense at all. I wished I could keep up my love. My heart is broken. Source...

Fujfilm has introduced its X30 enthusiast compact, which offers a 2/3″ X-Trans II CMOS sensor and a 28-112mm equivalent F2.0-2.8 lens – both of which are retained from the X20 that precedes it. New features include a larger, tilting 3″ LCD, an XGA OLED electronic viewfinder, a control wheel around the lens, and greatly improved battery life. A new ‘Classic Chrome’ film simulation mode has also been added, as has Wi-Fi. The X30 will be available in September for $599.95 in your choice of black and...

With top-notch hardware and plenty of imaging features, the HTC One M8 presents a lot to like as a mobile photography tool. Unfortunately, its 4 megapixel camera just can’t keep up with other flagship phones and we were underwhelmed by its image quality when we reviewed it. Our collaborators at DxO have put the One M8 through their usual round of mobile imaging tests. Take a look at how it scored.

read moreEnthusiast compact camera roundup (2014)
Is this large-sensor compacts? Or viewfinder compacts? Or also 1/1.7″, raw-capable compacts? Or compacts above a certain physical size? And why exclude the elephant in the room, the RX100? It seems this is a collection of cameras that stand out in some way or another. Or maybe it was to have one or two contenders in each interesting category. (a) compact, 200 mm, viewfinder, but 1/1.7″ (P7800)(b) compact, fast-ish lens, 1/1.7″ (G16)(c) compact-ish, 200+ mm, viewfinder, 1/1.7″ (Stylus)(d) compact, large-ish sensor...

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.
