Ah, a pun. Well, I'm a bit slow on the uptake these days, sorry.

I won't cut this one as it's more or less what the camera saw and I like it that way. I have one more though, from the same sitting, with the cut more pronounced, maybe you'll find it more...

I'm sorry, you're the touchy fellow that called on this rule of not cutting, right? I just want to get to the bottom of this. You see, I'm a portraitist. The portrait is what I do. Almost...

So, I've been browsing through my images lately looking for forgotten gems (it happens sometimes that I cull an image which laters turns out to be the best of the sitting, that's why I never throw...

I am sorry if you took it that way. I only wanted to ask, as one portraitist of another, how do you define what constitutes a "general rule" when it comes to cropping. Why is cutting a top of the...

You make me blush :) I'm not a pro, I just happened to discover a great secret. Here it is: Want beautiful photos, shoot beautiful people ;)

I just realized I have a dpreview account for quite some time and have never uploaded a single photo. So, to remedy this situation, a couple of bw's just to get into the spirit of the forum, so to...

You think so? I guess it depends what do you consider a headshot - if by that you mean just a head filling the entire frame then possibly, yes. If you want your head to rest on something like a...

What would be the equivalent maximum aperture (in terms of dof) of this lens for a 35mm camera?

(DOH, I just read - 3.2... Not reall that great for your average shallow dof portrait then...)

He shoots the ground glass, so actually he's using much larger image circle than the meagre u4/3. At the cost of totally ruining image quality of course. I don't see how this is unique however....
