The 15 Most Popular DSLRS Among Our Readers

02 Dec

Every few months we like to report back to the dPS community which cameras (and other gear) are most popular with our readers. Today we’re going to take a look at the highest selling DSLRs among our readers over the last 4 months (as ranked by the reports that Amazon gives us*).

As usual you’ll see it is largely a battle between Canon and Nikon (who dominate this class of camera) and that at the top of the list we see entry level DSLRS most popular (mainly due to their price). Further down the list we see more serious (and expensive) contenders.

Note: Amazon currently have some great specials at the moment on cameras and gear as part of their Holiday Promotions.

1. Canon EOS Rebel T3i

The Second Most Important Button On Your DSLR

19 Nov

Todays tutorial is about using your digital SLR. People have been asking about my process for taking photos so I wanted to go over some of the basics of how to use digital SLRs first. I focus on how to use the Auto Exposure Lock and Auto Focus Lock button. It is a really powerful little button that helps you compose a better shot and fix problem scenes.

The 16 Most Photogenic Everyday Objects

16 Oct

This post is written by James Maher – author of The Essentials of Street Photography – an eBook currently onsale at SnapnDeals (25% off).

You know how some people are just photogenic.  No matter what the lighting is or if they are all sweaty from the gym, they are still going to look damn good.

Well the same goes for certain objects and structures.  I am such a sucker for things like water towers, lampposts, and fire escapes, and so I thought I would create a list of my 16 favorite things to include in photographs.  These objects won’t always make a photo, but when included they will almost always make the scene more photogenic.

What are yours?

1. Cigarettes

Bad for your health, great for your photos.

Jerry Delakas

2.  Colorful shoes.

Especially when contrasted with dirty backgrounds.

Polka Dots and Pink Shoes, Subway.

3.  Old Patterned Walls and Wallpaper

An easy way to add an element of pattern and design into your photograph.

Razed Building

4.  Glowing Screens

It’s a good thing those glowing cellphone and iPad screens look good in photos, because unfortunately they are becoming hard to avoid these days.

25 People, 21 Screens

5.  Tunnels

The old frame within a frame.

Couple in Snowstorm, Central Park.

6.  Umbrellas

Particularly the translucent and colorful kind when lit from behind.

Green Umbrella

7.  Ladders and Fire Escapes

Turn them on their side and to an angle to create an illusion.

Escher Fire Escape

8.  Water Towers

Even better when you tint them and add some colorful frames.

Colored Water Towers

9.  Fire Hydrants

Gowanus Fire Hydrant

10. Advertisements that mimic or contrast with real life.

The Road to a Bright Future

11.  Glowing Lampposts

My favorite.

Glowing Lamppost

12.  Phonebooths

Quickly becoming antiquated.  Catch them before they all disappear.

Two Generatins, Phonebooth and iPad

13. Phone Lines

Especially when they are in the middle of nowhere.

Telephone Pole

14.  Old Doors.

Old Door

15.  Windows with Silhouettes.

Greek Protests

16.  Wet Cobblestone

Textures of Greece
