Mamiya M645 and Kodak Portra 160 on occasion.

It was the Kodak Instamatic, introduced in the 60's that was specifically intended to bring affordable photography to the masses. Still, even with cheaper (and even free) tools today, what has not...

1. In events, there's more than just a ball in play or a speaker at the podium. With everyone's attention fixed on the obvious, you miss things like the coaches/audience/other players...

Unless it's you and the great outdoors, bags are a liability (for folks to trip), or an easy chance for theft. When doing run and gun (weddings, events or in the crowd), I wear a dual sling and a...

bluehighwayman. I'm sure it's a tough position in journalism to tell a story without interference -especially in times of turmoil or confronted with risk. But that's what good journalism is about:...

Might as well realize the savings in selling off the $15K in lighting gear as well, (as if that was never a factor).

"wanted to see whether the new Nokia Lumia 1020, which features a 41 megapixel 'PureView' sensor could hold its own in a studio fashion shoot."

"meaningful stories..." That's what NG is all about. It's not that you or anyone else could shoot same or better quality. It's because you or I wasn't "there" to take "that" shot. Sometimes a...

I guess to some it's the size of the 'award' that hides a truth. In reality, it's no different than finding a vendor at a flee market selling small prints of racing cars that he stole from others...

Thanks for the suggestion Gryfster, and I came that same conclusion. However, I lucked out on a Kindle Fire HD 16 GB for $60 at discount (an unused store demo still in the box)! This model has...

I'm pricing tablets now. I need Mobile tethering. Checking shots while the set is rigged and client is still present. I'm referring to the low budget shoots, or those on the run that would make...

Sure. The machines may appear old, and maybe they are. What matters is the interface tooling, (which makes the cuts). I'm sure Sigma, like most large firms, have a staff of skilled tool and die...

I agree. A few times we had to go back and redesign or deal with material change issues in the original design that would help facilitate mass production. With medical devices, there was a zero...

I often print at 150 for 10 foot event banners on Epson 9800 series, suitable for 10 feet viewing distance, (and most every vendor involved with pull up and fabric banners will specifically ask to...
