Rob Galbraith puts Digital Photography Insights website on hiatus

01 Aug

rg_site_logo.jpg

Photography expert Rob Galbraith has said he is putting his well-respected ‘Digital Photography Insights’ website into ‘deep hibernation mode,’ as he accepts a photojournalism teaching role. Galbraith has become known as an engaging and knowledgeable writer, particularly from the sports and photojournalism perspective, and was one of the first people to identify and begin to characterise the autofocus problems with the Canon EOS-1D Mark III. The site will remain accessible but will no longer be updated. We would like to wish him every success in his new role at Southern Alberta Institute of Technology.

[MODIFIED] Digital Fireworks Photography – Equipment Preparation Before the Shoot

01 Aug

Make sure your digital camera and accessories are ready to take plenty of great fireworks photos.

Preparation is the key to any successful digital photo shoot. Before you go out to a celebration to shoot photos of fireworks, whether it is the US Fourth of July, Boomsday on Labor Day, New Year’s Day, or other special occasion, make sure your equipment is ready:

* Obviously if it is legal and feasible (due to large crowds) to bring one along to where you are shooting photos, a tripod is crucial to getting the best, clearest photos. Otherwise you will need to hand-hold your digital camera very steady and do tricks such as increasing the ISO level to take quicker photos due to the low amount of available light.

[MODIFIED] Digital Night Photography – Two Ways to Prevent Camera Shake

01 Aug

Your digital photos at nighttime need not be blurry if you use one of these techniques.

While most digital camera manuals describe the self-timer mode, where the camera takes a picture several seconds after the shutter speed is pressed, as “good for portraits”, the self-timer mode can be very useful for night photos as well.

Most night photos, especially in situations where you cannot reliably use flash, require a shutter speed of half a second or longer else the subject will be too dark. This is to compensate for the lack of available light. Unfortunately, these situations, especially if you are unable to use a tripod, can result in camera shake….

[MODIFIED] Digital Urban and Cityscape Photography – Look Outside the Main Business / Financial District

01 Aug

Step outside of a city’s main district for some of the best skyline digital photos opportunities.

Instead of taking the usual cityscape photos while inside the main Financial or Business Districts, you may want to scout out areas outside of the main ‘hustle and bustle’ to take wide-angle skyline photos that showcase more of a city’s architecture.

In Chicago, instead of just taking Loop pictures from the Chicago River and other well-photographed vantage points, consider heading out to Navy Pier to take a cityscape photo on the lakefront. Or, another great photo opportunity is north at Lincoln Park; shoot south, towards the skyscrapers, and part of Lake Michigan will be in view….

[MODIFIED] Digital Photography – Why Use Manual Focus?

01 Jul

A few reasons why one should use manual focus even with advanced digital cameras.

Beginning digital photographers, this tip is mainly for you. Modern digital cameras have automatic modes for just about everything – white balance, focus, ISO, shutter speed, etc. You may wonder why you should ever bother using manual focus as your digital camera has an auto focus capability. Isn’t auto focus much easier to use and always provides perfect results? The fewer technical things you have to worry about, the more time you can spend taking great pictures, right?

Unfortunately, digital camera auto focus technology is not perfect, and more advanced and professional digital photographers learn to not always rely on this feature. For some reasons why:…
