Improve Photography is one of the largest photography communities on the web with over 1 million followers on social media. Many of the videos on the channel are on-location clips as Jim Harmer and the other hosts of the Improve Photography podcasts travel the world to meet up and shoot with readers of Improve Photography.
At the time, that short video literally changed my life. Jim and Dustin helped me understand, in less than 10 minutes, what no one else would tell me. Off-camera flash photography can be done very simply, in manual mode, without having to spend a fortune on big-brand equipment. Before spending money on overpriced equipment or complicated training, watch this video. It's still 100% relevant today
Thanks for the great tips for the program! I'm getting my late uncle's pro-100 which he never opened, so i'm excited to put it to use when it gets here.
thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you
These are the best Fujinon lenses for me to use on my Fuji X-Pro1 and X-Pro2: 16mm f/1.4 23mm f/1.4 23mm f/2 56mm f/1.2 50-140mm f/2.8 16-55mm f/2.8 I normally use the two zooms as backups to my four primes.
Inverse square law: intensity varies inversely as the square of the distance. I. e. If you multiply the distance x 2, then light intensity varies by 1/2 squared = 1/4.
Thanks for the video. It needs an update. Also for its vintage I was surprised not to see any Markins ball heads. Also not sure what is being shot but there were no Wimberley gimbal heads or leveling bases from RRS. Take care.
Great vid. I think the tripod tends to be the most neglected part of a professionals kit. But just a brand that wasn’t represented here that seems to be the best of the best is ProMediagear. I have their 424 series because I shoot video and photo and the build quality is even a step up from really right stuff, as is the pricing. But I operate on the philosophy of buy once, keep forever.
An odd amount of aperture blades will double the amount of sun " spikes". So a lens with a 7 bladed aperture would give 14 sun "spikes". An even amount of aperture blades just gives you an even amount of sun spikes, there's no doubling of the sun spikes. No idea why it works like that, it just does. I also believe straight aperture blades can work better than curved aperture blades again not sure why.
Yes, I have also run into the depth of field problem with my Canon RP. I have to use a smaller aperture, which means I put up the ISO. So I buy an f1.8 lens and have to use it at f11. And at 3200 ISO! What does that do to image quality? I am considering selling the RP and going back to my 100D. May get a 250D.
Can you help me with speeding up my video. I taped myself drawing and want to render it faster and then create an audio file over it, like many of the bullet journal art videos and drawing videos, but when I tried to render it at 60 fps, no change, and I also tried 120 fps, and it still doesnt' speed it up. What am I doing wrong? thanks
