I got all excited until I discovered there's no HUB Remote for Sony.  :-( Even if there were, I have a ton of Godox units/gear so as much as I'm a Buff fan I'd have a hard time justifying switching ...

Lighting (supplemental off camera) and accurate (or appealing) white balance are going to be the two technical challenges. Means maybe no natural sunlight/windows?  Could be rough if it's ...

3rd - though if I was going to try the empty LH frame I would have made it the same rectangle as the other - no arch top... it's distracting.

f4 works but 2.8 is tons better for events and portrait work. 2.8 @ 200 allows one to completely melt the background (one example of a very specialized headshot/portrait look - while other times ...

When booking - except for a passport or LikedIn style - not too many clients actually want this when they ask for a headshot. They usually mean the typical head & shoulders framing one might see ...

All good, and I was going to slightly disagree with the "lens list" post as well - but in a different way... All of those scenarios (other than group shots) 3/4, headshots, zoomed in, 1/2, full ...

It's called the sun - maybe not " highly artificial' - but can easily be overdone.  :-P

They all have a sort of faded haze look to them that's YMMV - not my fave...but FUN STUFF! I've wanted to go to the Fringe for years now but live 1/2 a world away... maybe some day!

Autopoles with triple hook and drive set. B&H has this one sale for stupid cheap right now. If I wasn't currently moving I'd buy another! Accommodates ceiling heights up to 12'. The Manfrotto ...

To answer your question - broad lighting from multiple sources (no heavy shadows) and good quality retouching (no fuzzy blur/smearing) are key when doing portraits of seniors.  Your samples 1,3 & ...

I had one client bring me all their family's funeral images to create a slideshow w/music.  They were very happy with it.  It seems weird at first, but think about it - it's a rare time worth ...

Good to know, my concern was that it was a pervasive issue due to faulty materials, since there were so many people with the same thing reporting it.  Especially disconcerting  if it were to ...

It is a question - not a statement after all...  And absolutely legitimate to ask if this problem exists over a period of time or affecting other models, since it seems a manufacturing ...

Thanks! I hadn't heard of this - good to narrow it down to a specific issue concerning just the one model. Feedback that this failing cement hasn't been in use for decades across several models is ...

I have an RX10 and noticed another one with the exact same issue (someone selling online) There are spots on the inside of the lens!  It's almost a pattern - similar appearance on mine.  I've heard ...

CA - Bay Area (east of the Altamont Pass) local pickup/test/inspect/cash purchase $1500 - LOCAL CASH ONLY unless you are a well known veteran on DPR with tons of ID verification. Selling because I ...

IMO (could be mistaken) I don't believe there is any naked eye print viewing scenario that can resolve to the pixel level details of either camera or highest resolution DPI printer. So as far as ...

+1 It's my go to lens, unless I want to completely melt the BG with compression - or have to fit a group with a wider FOV.

That a valid point. For me, the settings backup file(s) are for emergencies only - in the event something goes wonky and I have to fully initialize the camera. Highly unlikely, but I keep a spare ...

I don't agree.  Format is fast, clean and simple - I do it before every client shoot. I don't think you have to worry about "wearing out" a card. That's what they are designed for.  And don't ...
