If my physical well being or that of the person I was with  was threatened- absolutely. In the case of the man that was attacked, all four of them. If the choice is between an elderly  gentleman ...

Simply saying shot in daylight does not mean anything .   Daylight is from sunrise to sunset and offers a variety  of tonality.  Shot under identical conditions with the same gear same settings fiv ...

No apologies necessary. To have gone all that way. I've never been so I cannot suggest alternatives to what you came up with given the circumstances but I find the image really unsatisfying. A ...

The chairs are not square to the  sensor plane/ adults not parallel within  the plane of focus and   the background is distracting and was the easiest fix of all and obvious through the viewfinder. ...

You are not an anomaly  and your perception of the sit-com lighting punched up digital look is accurate. Too much sharpening, too much contrast  and rarely a dark corner   to be curious about. Ther ...

Nothing. Done is done. No. No. Hell no. I swear profusely and make profane comments. Wait,  you were asking what I do to generate smiles... How can you not know the shortcomings of the subject ...

If you  are folks with a camera who want easy mementos to commemorate your travels then all of the cameras mentioned will  likely get the job done. If you are a photographer hiking to the middle of ...

Started with 35mm  film.  After breaking  in to   the LA NY markets as a professional I switched to MF 67 in the  80's.  Never shot 35 again.  Transitioned  to digital scans/ digital printing ...

Over on the FX forum and elsewhere  on DPR  the  whimpering moaning and whining over the lack of new Nikon gear at Photokina  by the prepubescent  fanboys might leave the ignorant  to conclude the ...

I took a while to understand these "will it work" queries. I do not use sidecars - I make changes to a file and save it permanently as a new tiff file. The files open with anything including Preview. ...

I will never be pointing my camera at your child.  I will be nowhere near your child.  I will never be pointing my camera at you.  I will leave and set up elsewhere  if you are in the way of my shot. ...

No new rattles to play with this week. H'blad X1D did not wait for Photokina.  Canon 5D4 did not wait.  Nikon DSLRs did not wait.  Fuji showed up with a low volume  high end kit it  will not ...

And most certainly do not post here. DPR is all about what  gear -the newer the better- can do for you.

I would shoot the Tamron at 100 and would not even take the Sigma.

Neither the new ML Hasselblad or this Fuji will be able to take a physically larger sensor.  The lenses are native to the  44x33 sensor providing the required image circle. Since there is already ...

Not a day goes by on this site someone does not  use killer or death in a description of an  inanimate object. Must be an affectation to be associated with old men. Machines evolve. Learning from ...

I do not shoot strangers  in focus -ever- they are relegated to the background, completely out of focus and unrecognizable.

Don't people ever get tired of serving the lowest common denominator? Enough of the pandering to morons already. Force people to step up or get out of the way. The masses are never going to reject ...

After eight years of  having a community organizer working from the script of the final year of West Wing -  the thought of an anything goes, seat of the pants, no focus group polling, no worries ...
