I preferred DPP3 for the longest time until I gave Capture One Pro 9 a serious look. The latest version of C1Pro 10 is faster, does an even better job of rendering and I'll be sticking with it. I ...

After owning a 1Ds3 for a few years, I purchased a clean used 1Dx a month ago. I was a little nervous about the lower MB count and color rendition but after a month I am very happy. Most of my ...

I appreciate the input. I started shooting back when Banana Republic and JCrew were starting and I do tend to crop a little tight like they did. I want the person to be the focal point not the ...

My paperwork states that a representative will be on set and have final approval, if no one is present I will execute the shots to the best of my ability as described in the preproduction notes. ...

I think that it's smart to have as much power as you can get because shooting conditions may require it. If you cannot afford it, rent it until you can. I also think that you're overlooking the ...

Remember when you used leaf shutter lenses to shoot these types of images back in '99? I found the transparency and had to scan it. I believe it was shot with a Mamiya RZ67 or Pentax 67II, 90LS ...

I use Autopoles and a 13' scrap piece of tubing that I paid about $20 for at a scrap yard. I like using the 12' seamless and have never had an issue in the 15 years that I've used this setup.

Thank you Colin, high praise after viewing your website. Beautiful images, TC

I mainly shoot food for Advertising, Point of Purchase and a little Editorial. You need to be prepared to utilize whatever means needed to achieve beautiful images. There are times when the ...

I would not want to carry my 1Dx or 1Ds3 while trying to enjoy an afternoon or vacation. Instead, I like the Canon G15 which is a fun camera that I use in manual mode and produces good snapshots. ...

There is no way that I'd carry the 70-200/2.8 around on that kind of job. You'd be better served with a 35L with or without a flash but what about continuity? I'd rent it if you cannot afford to ...

The working distance between you and your subject would be an issue with the 300/2.8. There are a couple other lenses that would be practical and yield similar results. I would consider the 85L, ...

The ceiling is only 7' tall? I would not build out a garage studio unless it's climate controlled or the drywall will likely have issues with temperature and humidity swings. Seamless paper is ...

I use a sheet of 4x8 Plexiglass on top of whatever color seamless I want it to be.

Still no picture.

If you have the subjects contact information, I would scan the selects and then offer the film at a reasonable price.

Perhaps the worst lighting situation ever. Are these images going to reflect the clients reputation or be used on eBay? No matter what then situation, I would have an estimate that describes in ...

I specialize in shooting food and I'm careful to price projects according to difficulty of shots, number of shots needed and most importantly how the images are going to be used. The range of ...

Good to see that Helen is aware of the issue and hopefully will resolve it to your satisfaction. Please let us know how it turns out.
