She has a good eye and I think she knows she can be good if just given the right inspiration. Except for the wedding shooters on Creative Live, I don't think she will learn all that much about ...

Really? That image won? Ok. Show that image WITHOUT saying it won some prize and let's see what people say.  Probably something like "Oh, someone's iPhone accidentally took a picture on the deck of ...

As someone who shot seniors for about 10 years and still does a lot of portrait work, I can, with all honestly, say that spending a few bucks on https://photovisionvideo.com is the best bet out ...

There is A LOT more that goes into creating a camera and bringing it to market than just labor and materials.  It's true with any product really.  There is R&D.  There is marketing and ...

??? Well, think about it.  Take the model out of the photo.  The flash really has nothing to do with this.  Take a shot.  Let’s say it’s 1/60 @ f/8 ISO 800.  Now take the same shot.  Same Shutter ...

My first dslr was a $5000 Nikon D1X.  5.6MP APS sensor. Past 640 ISO it was awful.  Now we have 24MP FF with usable ISOs up to around 6400 starting at $2000 and A LOT of newer technology to make ...

From what I understand, if you have Face/eye detection, “multi” mode is disabled.  If you notice in the manual it says the “selected mode” and it has “multi” highlighted.  Perhaps it was an ...

Laws and what the average park visitor can do varies from park to park, city to city.  What a "regular" park visitor is not really what's in question here.  And of course, there is always an ...

Not ME.  YOUR city/town. BUT YOU ARE!!!  THAT IS WHY THE LADY IS SCREAMING!!!!  Most people DON"T say anything but may still be upset you are flashing your camera for hours. So did all the other ...

You're exactly right.  We pay taxes for the upkeep of PARKS.  NOT your personal outside studio! You want to USE a park to create income?  Fine.  Pay for a permit.  It's not your own private natural ...

Like a lot of stories or posts, we don't know the rest of the story. She IS a professional, or at least has a FB page that says so. They did bring props. Hmmm. Sounds like a pro shoot to me. And ...

Also consider what the screen settings were for the XT-1's monitor were.  Maybe they had them set for a brighter setting than you are use to.  Camera monitor and computer monitor brightness are ...

Well, no.  That’s why a good meter has different modes.  If you are in regular or ambient mode, it will immediately measure the ambient light.  When you’re in cordless mode the meter waits for the ...

Not sure what all the other posts says.  I will just give you my recommendation. I've had a large Tamrac light stand bag for years now.  At least 10.  Great build quality and really not that much ...

Almost all triggers have a "TEST" button that will fire off the strobes/speedlights. Even the cheapest Chinese ones. This is what you will press when taking meter readings. The meter should have a ...

I agree that the lighting needs to be a large source. My guess is perhaps bouncing off the wall behind her (the photographer). I've shot a few images aiming my flash to a wall and ceiling behind ...

One is fine for a group at a wedding.  Maybe two speed lights but one umbrella will more than suffice.  We're only talking 15-20 people. PLus, at weddings, it's about speed.  You don't want to be ...

Fujifilm X-T3.  Better than the previous models but the others are not bad either.  I do have the X-H1 (may sell and get T3) and I use it's face detection for headshots and it's dead on every time. ...

It’s not that it gives you shiny skin  if they have an oily face, sure. When you point it forward then you are losing it’s designed purpose of spreading light around the room.  read my reply  it’s ...

Only if your in a room that has low enough ceilings or close by walls. BUT, it will not be as diffused compared to if it were pointed up.  So as another poster said. Marginally. Why?  Well the ...
