A User In Total Control Is A Designer’s Nightmare

A User In Total Control Is A Designer’s Nightmare By Matej Latin June 16th, 2014 User ExperienceUser InteractionVisual Design 5 Comments How do you balance the creative control you give to the users, the usability of the product they make with your tool and the flexibility of that tool? We designers have always had a problem of handing over creative control to the general population — the basic users. There are two reasons for this. The first is obvious: We are the ones who are supposed to know the principles of design and usability. Some...

5 Ways To Break Out of a Creative Photography Rut

A Post By: Mike Newton I’m a full time photographer that concentrates on shooting restaurant and bar interiors, food, and cocktails. After strictly shooting that subject matter for long time I found myself uninspired, so I decided to do something about it. I’m going to share four tips I’ve used over the years to get back on track creatively, hopefully they will help you get out of your photography rut too. 1. Get out of your comfort zone – physically I find that I loose inspiration when I’ve been in the same area too long. When...

Spice-Up Your Outdoor Photos with Wireless Off-camera Flash and Gels

A Post By: Mason Resnick Wireless off-camera flash is a great way to add a splash of light and give a scene an added dimension, or to fill in shadows in high-contrast scenes. The TTL (through the lens) exposure feature makes it easier than ever to get a well-exposed image without the need for a flash meter. However, there’s one more ingredient that you can add that will open up a new world of creative possibilities for your photography. That ingredient is easy to find, easy to use, and affordable: colored flash gels. What’s a gel? A gel...

Dive in: Waterproof compact group test posted

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

Last year I tried the Olympus TG-2 which was one of the 2013 recommendations. I was really shocked about the bad image quality compared to any other camera (e.g. S95, TZ10, RX100, FZ38, some mFT-Bodies) I have used before.The lens of the TG-2 is fast, but it’s so soft that open wide is unusable. The JPEG engine was also one of the bad ones. I can not agree to the 2013 and this new 2014 comparison, because there is one really important feature which is a must for UW photography: RAW support. Without RAW the pictures will have heavy false...

Real Estate Photography Question and Answers – #7

Jerome’s Question: I did my first real estate photography earlier this year and the realtor sold it pretty quick. I would like to do more but I’m not sure where to get a client base for that. I still have my day job that pays me well. But I would like to find a part-time gig that pays decent on the weekends, maybe even a couple of days during the week. Who can I work for? Answer: Real estate photography works best if you create your own business and work independently. The companies that hire RE photographers keep most of the...

Two Videos on How to Take Care of Your Camera Gear

Posted by on 16th, Jun, 2014 in Blog | 0 comments

A Post By: Darlene Hildebrandt This week I found two different videos on how to take good care of your camera gear from two different perspectives (serious and more tongue in cheek). It’s important to take care of your equipment to make sure it keeps functioning properly and takes nice clean images with no dust spots. The first video by photographer Gregory Cazillo is the serious one. He goes through a list of a few things you can do to protect, clean and maintain your gear in good condition. He recommends jotting down all your serial...

How to use a Gobo to add Depth to Your Portraits with Subtractive Lighting

A Post By: Jerry W Venz It’s our responsibility as photographers to use the interplay of light and shadow on our subjects to create the third dimension in our two-dimensional media. When the shadows are absent, we should do our best to craft the direction of natural light with tools that do this organically–tools that do not call attention to themselves. One tool that I often see photographers using outdoors, typically in an attempt to counteract the effects of ambient light on a subject rather than simply crafting existing light, is...

I like the color rendition, like the one of my XZ-2, but definitely not better than most 1/1.7″ from other manufacturers as said below. My old 7MP 1/2.3″ sensor PowerShot A720 IS takes sharper pictures than this camera. I downsized picture ISO125-P6050380 to 7MP to compare with the A710, then to 2MP to be seen on an HD TV screen but picture still shows lack of sharpness… Source Article from...
