How to Fix Chromatic Aberration in Lightroom 5
A Post By: Daniel Korzeniewski Chromatic aberration is a phenomenon caused by distortion of the lens. Basically, it is a failure of the lens to focus all the colors to the same convergence point. The effect can be generally seen in dark edges adjacent to bright areas of an image; it looks like an out-of-focus ghost of magenta or purple color. In photography this is also called “purple fringingâ€. The quality of the optic plays an important role here, as not all lenses will produce the same effect. This problem tends to manifest much more...
read moreTips for Taking Great Portraits in 10 Minutes or Less
A Post By: Melinda Smith Yes, you read that right. 10 minutes tops (not counting editing time), and you could have a set of photos worthy to hang on the wall. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not telling you that every session should be that speedy, but sometimes that’s all the time you have. Maybe you’re dealing with some kids that aren’t too happy about being there, and 10 minutes is all they’re going to give you before the meltdown. Maybe you’ve got awful weather, and you’ve got 10 minutes before the tornado hits. Maybe you decide...

Film industry accessory manufacturer Cinoflex was recently tasked with rigging up a new Sony a7S mirrorless camera for use on a Chevrolet commercial. After some testing, the Cinoflex Type SA7S Camera System was created to allow the filmmakers to attach the necessary range of auxiliary equipment needed on a high budget commercial shoot. The a7S features a full-frame sensor which is much larger than the Super 35 sized sensors found in typical high-end digital video cameras like the Red Epic or the Arri Alexa, two of the cameras that you would...

read moreGoogle Photo Sphere now available for iOS
As far as panoramic stitching and parallax errors, the camera phones have two things in their favor – 1) the small sensor has a greater DOF (not essentially necessary for parallax, but helps with stitching across the board), and 2) the extremely thin camera/lens makes the offset pretty much negligible. I often shoot outdoor 360-degree panos with a m43 camera and 14mm (28mm equiv.) lens. Using MS ICE, as long as I’m no closer than, say, five feet or so to a subject (e.g. tree), I rarely see parallax errors, even when just using a...

A Post By: Dylan Goldby The bride’s most prized possession for the wedding day A visual story, although no longer used as frequently in magazines or media, is a powerful way to give your viewer a taste of a situation without having to be there. It’s also a great way to challenge yourself to produce a coherent body of work. A collection of images, or picture story, can be engrossing and tell a story far beyond what a single image could do. Think back to a recent trip you took, a night out with your significant other, a favourite book or...

read moreSamsung NX3000 real-world samples
Well, I do. I’m certainly interested in, even if the Samsung bodies don’t exactly entice me, Samsung’s excellent lens lineup. Of course the x000 series is too basic / entry-level for me, though. A decent, future, x00 or x0 series (that is, mid/high-level) camera, however, would be more than welcome, at least for me to recommend to friends. Particularly if they, at last, fix the JPEG output… Source Article from...

It seems to be a general problem, not only Nikon: 5D3 also had a light leak, Fuji X-T1, leica released v1.0 firmware after the camera was shipped … for T if i remember correctly, a lot of shutter vibration in a lot of cameras (olympus, sony) … So it is not a QC problem only, it’s probably more complex, and it is more about the time that is spend today in a generation: engineering & testing. They all should have a break, and slow down the pace a bit to allow for their teams to do the job properly. But marketing is...

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.
