My goal was to try and keep as many people in the shot. But your edit makes me think that I should risk cropping others out to keep myself from looking so distorted (read: fat).

My company was celebrating a milestone, and wanted a group photo of the everyone working at the facility.  Turns out, we have over 200 employees.  I've never photographed a group this large before,...

Like many of Samyang's product, this lens does not have any electrical contacts for communication with the camera body.  Also, as a cine lens, it has a de-clicked aperture for smooth aperture...

After reading your question again, I realized you were probably talking about the non-timelapse shots.  Everything that wasn't a time-lapse shot was shot handheld. - Jason

It took a tripod, footwork, and lots of patience, LOL.

3 years after my last visit, I decided to venture back into Japan, as well as briefly check out South Korea.  Last time I was in Japan, I had a Pentax K-5 and Canon T2i in tow.  I used the K-5 for...

I'm one. Loved the Pentax ergonomics. Moved to Canon after getting more interested in video. Went to the D800 because it had ergonomics and high dynamic range like the K-5 but with a full-frame...

What focal length were you using?

DoF does not change when you enlarge an image in post. DoF is determined by your aperture and distances between subject, background, and camera.Now, if you were to take a photo in FX, then switch...

I use Final Cut Pro X.

Could you repost the shots with EXIF data intact?

I have a similar issue, but with CF instead.  For some reason, my Mac will lose connectivity with the CF card, forcing me to re-insert the card into the reader.  This problem showed up across...

ProRes is designed to be an editing codec vs. h.264, which is more intended as a distribution codec.  The h.264 video recorded onto a memory card is highly compressed.  As a result, the computer...

For portraiture, I like the 85mm f/1.8 and the 50mm f/1.8.  They're not as flexible as the kit lens, but the quality will be better for both applications.What other lenses do you have?

My brother asked me to take some Christmas portraits of his family as my birthday present to him, so I obliged. So I decided to take portraits at two locations. The first was in front of the...

Did a group shoot today with a model that was somewhat new at modeling still.  She needed a bit of direction for poses; thankfully, after doing a few of these types of shoots, I was comfortable...
