Elite83

One of my all-time personal favorite shots I've taken. This was from a road trip I took out west. Being an East-Coaster, seeing these sights was truly breathtaking! Must've left Bicubic Sharper on ...

I suppose that is part of my point as well. I'm sure some of the seasoned pros on here could vouch that brides no longer order as many prints as they used to pre-internet era. Weddings aside, with ...

Video has been on the rise ever since YouTube became a "thing." Given the way we as a culture consume and digest media, it seems like video is only on the up-and-up. In my area, it seems everyone ...

I'll be completely honest with you. I'm just starting out and finishing my degree in Engineering. My "business" is still at the hobby level. Photography is a side-gig for me now until I can pay my ...

I'm looking to find a decent "Swirly" Bokeh lens for my A73 for wedding portraits, preferably something around $1000 or less, anywhere between 50-85mm. Ideally, I'd love a lens that had AF but MF ...

The funniest part about that statement is its truth sans context. He's right. E-mount wasn't. Be the FE-mount lenses were. How could someone be so moronic without making a similar statement about ...

I work a lot with dancers who appreciate the non-conventional lighting and more artistic approaches. These shoots align more with my personal passion in shooting style. For weddings, I simply edit ...

Perhaps I am  more of a "wildcard" in terms of how I approach photography. Let me start with a short story comparison: Why do people enjoy tales like Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Narnia so ...

Whether it's a new AF, OSS, nano-coated-whatever, or a German lens from the 60s. What is your "secret weapon" lens for shooting people & portraits that you enjoy, and find consistently gives ...

I haven't used Square, so I can't compare. But PayPal does accept credit cards, and also has built in invoicing which I find useful. They take a cut--yes, but for the convenience for my clients, ...

Funny enough, after 3 years of waiting for the "primetime" A7 model I finally pulled the trigger on the A7III and unboxed it yesterday. Never bothered to check the shutter count. Does that really ...

It's the weekend, you may find yourself with some time on your hands to get out and take some photos. For the sake of the discussion, let's assume it's not anything "specialty" like birding, what ...

I don't own them so I can't tell you for sure, but my gut tells me probably not. Optical slave will work, but 2.4GHz wireless protocols between OEM and third-party are usually different. As far as ...

Phones should start having pico projectors in them instead of more cameras.

It is rather interesting that NIkon chose to release a "first" MILC that wasn't more of a "shake things up" model

There's no "wrong" answers or methods to business models. I do think that is an interesting setup, and it is great you found something that has worked for you. I planned my business to strive for ...

Sounds like Nikon is the Sony of a decade ago when they pushed their "Pro Duo" cards. Sony has really a lot of good things in restructuring over the last 10 years and migrating away from not all,...

Yep, I agree with most replies. I'm not sold on any one brand and was holding out for this release before making a decision. Looks like I'll be going Sony, but I'm sure there's people out there who...

Simply to address my oversight in the OT: yes--I should have really used the term "all day" as unlimited is, as many have pointed out, absurd. My mistake. But I think you bring up an important ...

I've seen the two schools of thought: charge for a set window of coverage, or charge as a package with "limitless" coverage. What do you prefer (/use)? And why do you think that method of pricing ...
