There are few things as wonderful as knowing that you got the shot in-camera and don't need to do post-production to it. It comes with a sense of pride and accomplishment that's akin to scoring a 100% on a test when you're a young kid. Thankfully, LUMIX cameras can help to get you most of the way -- or they'd get most of your artistic vision done right in the device. I'm not talking about Real Time LUT or Live Composite this time. I'm talking about the filter settings -- it's a bit of a forgotten and lesser talked about feature that photographers should have a lot of fun with ..read more

I have a confession: most of Joel Meyerowitz's work isn't very appealing to me. That's completely different from saying that the man hasn't made great images. He surely has made wonderful photographs that continue to captivate photographers today. However, I think he's probably one of the single greatest indirect photography teachers today. Make no mistake, Joel Meyerowitz: A Question of Color doesn't have any of his greatest images; but it contains his greatest teachings ever. In fact, I think even advanced photographers will rediscover something in his words ..read more

"With the unfortunate position to speak to art and commerce simultaneously, I will say that blending the two is always a challenge but this one takes the cake for me," says photographer Ryan Schaude to the Phoblographer in an interview. "It might take a separate thread to discuss the technical and human relations aspects which were vast." Ryan is quite a unique photographer. Where so much of the photography is done with lots of post-production later on, Ryan shot the lead image and the photo later on in this story all in-camera. They're not at all composited -- and this is a level of productio ..read more

For years, portrait photographers adhered to a simple three-color rule. This was in an effort to their images simple and the heroes of their images as the most important part. It prevented distractions, for sure. For example, someone might be framed in green field while they're wearing a blue outfit. And depending on the tonality of the image, the colors might not even be an important part -- especially if the blue mixes into the sky. Colors can indeed be an incredibly important part of the photograph. Luckily for us, LUMIX cameras have a command over colors in full-frame cameras that we just ..read more

If there was ever an iconic tripod design, it's the ones from the early 2000s and late 90s. That's where the new Promoster Epoch tripod is taking inspiration from. Every college video department had some sort of aluminum tripod with a ball head of some sort and they all looked like this. Tripods these days don't have a whole lot of innovation unless they're incorporating electronics and AI into them like the Benro Theta. But with Promaster, the company is going vintage and relying on more of their token durability by using fewer parts and sections ..read more
