I want to answer, without reading any of the previous comments. The general notion that for online presentation and hobby application MF is overkill, is generally right. But I think you’re a real ...

The medium doesn't matter. On the cost side, lets say 10 image story, 10pack Pola ($11) and 5 rolls 120 each ($6), developed and contacted ($20) thats about $1200. Then you need to either print ...

Totally agree. The reason I like Profoto is the lightquality with their pro heads. These new head designs are for space and background only, if that. And color temp control is all over the place....

I wouldn’t back this all the way, RZ was AL main stay, but there were Mamiya 645, Fuji 690 and Leica M6 in the mix. Today, please hunt for BTS video. As for the others, Peter always was and is ...

I use aphotofolio for years now. Solid, stable, innovative, picture oriented, easy to use, great templates that you can individualize quite a bit. You can test it out for a month, the Learning ...

Then I suggest testing out the actual lights. Shoot someone jumping rope at a power level that you would shoot, to reveal any ghosting vs. the flash duration numbers in catalogs. Then look at the ...

Honestly, I get calluses when using the Sony A 7/9 for a prolonged time, besides hand misalignments and the pain that comes with it, so I say Canon/ Nikon please bring it. I can probably live with ...

Rent, rent, rent...built a stable of Profoto compatible light formers with adapters  and start a Profoto collection. It’s the most rented international strobe equipment for good reason. Get only ...

I always love to work with a professional casting agency. They find represented and real world subjects, can handle the legal paper work and negotiations for for you and do a full casting call ...

Years ago, when I worked as an assistant, a lot of photographers working for medium to very big clients rented nearly or really everything. Form the help, me, to light meters, cameras, lights, ...

Fun question. Find the shows and locations and hang outside. For the most part, people will just bypass you, but some people who attend will stop ad take a photo. The smaller shows might give you ...

2 approaches to this. Maybe 3... if you shoot 2 lenses at the same time, zoom to cover basically everything, or as a purist a 35 and 85,then I would go for 2 identical bodies, keeps the confusion ...

To me this presents an opening bid on where cameras are going for the mainstream, the A series started it and now we see other options. While some tech seems like a shortfall, my personal view is ...

I think Nikon should have upgraded their mount when the whole shift to AF happened, like Canon did. People where wining about it at the time, but we got some great lenses in the mean time. Now ...

As long as it outclasses the Sony A9 I’m in. The only Thing I afraid of is the lack of lenses. This day and age it should be mandatory to introduce 2.8 24-70-200 twins,these are the benchmark and ...

One of the few things I like when shooting my Sony is the ability to shoot this more like a Rolleiflex, or if needed overhead or really low for unusual angles, something I do rarely but if needed ...

I hope this is not true. Dual card slots were one of the reasons I imediately switched to the Sony A9. As mentioned already, loosing unique images due to a technical glitch is in some assignments ...

Its an option, but if you have a lot and only photo assets there are better and cheaper options out there. I personally use PhotoShelter for years, never any issues and way cheaper for a large...

It’s not even “only” best practice,  it also a legal obligation, lefty or righty, unless you would like to break the law in your specific jurisdiction. And if you’re in the US, that’s the reason ...

It really comes down what you need the lens for. A 1.2 can open new opportunities and a new view on then world around you. Will this lens wide open be supercrisp, NO...Go with a Otus 55mm, but if ...
