LensRentals just finished their teardown of the incredibly light and compact new Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8 lens, and what they found will make Canon users very happy. Not only is this lens a beautifully engineered marvel–a total redesign of the “typical” 70-200mm f/2.8 formula–it is also, in Roger Cicala’s words: strong, like bull. As with […]
UK-based photographer Ruby Steele shot a series of portraits of women sitting on sofas in a wide range of locations. The project is simply titled “Women on Sofas.” “Women on Sofas was driven by a curiosity about the space a woman occupies in contemporary western society,” Steele writes. “The work explores how we experience ourselves […]
I’m photographer Jay P Morgan of The Slanted Lens, and today I’m going to talk about umbrellas! People have forgotten about umbrellas, they don’t use umbrellas, but umbrellas are a gorgeous way to light. So let’s take a look at them — see how to use them, set them up, and see the different qualities […]
Telephoto lenses and landscape photography may seem an odd pairing. Telephotos are more at home in the hands of wildlife, sports, and portrait photographers. They’re used to get close to the subject, help to compress perspective (cue the comments on “lens compression is a myth”) and isolate distracting elements. It just so happens that these […]
If you’ve ever taken a walk in the woods, especially after a rain storm, you’ve definitely walked by one of photographer Alison Pollack‘s subjects. You may have even stepped on one. But unless you had a magnifying glass handy, you never even knew they were there. Pollack specializes in super macro photography of fungi and […]
17-years-old photographer Ariel Fields is something of a wunderkind. Still four years away from being able to drink legally (in the US at least), the young wildlife photographer and 2019 Adobe Rising Star is already making a name for himself in a genre dominated by veteran shooters with decades of experience. We recently had the […]
You know how parents like to take pictures of their new born to document each milestone? We might’ve taken it too far. This one is dedicated to Zoltan, without whom this project probably would have been completed two years sooner. It all started with the Buzz Lightyear onesie. It was a gift. And as a […]
The most recent “APS-C vs Full-Frame” comparison comes from our friends at Sonder Creative, and it’s a portrait photography lens shootout between the ZEISS Batis 85mm f/1.8 and the Fujifilm 56mm f/1.2. For this latest test, Sonder’s Usman Dawood teamed up with photographer Anete Lusina, model Danielle Warwick, and assistant Alex Cousins. Together, they borrowed […]
There’s a changing of the guard at the top of the camera market. Sony has reportedly become the #2 brand in overall digital camera sales behind Canon, dropping Nikon to #3. Nikkei reports that Nikon is projected to have been overtaken by Sony in digital camera sales in the current fiscal year as Nikon gears […]
This is a photo series about the life of an artist and struggles that might come along with it. I got a project grant from NFFF (Nordic Society of Photography) for this project in early 2019. I gathered ideas during 2019 and now I have been working with this set for a while. The series […]
