It uses two Canon HF-M32 camcorders and two Kenlabs KS-4 gyro stabilizers. It is supported by a highly modified FloCam. This 3D video was shot with a Sony HDR-TD10 3D camcorder

    READ THIS!!!! DO YOUR RESEARCH!!!! All info supplied here is my opinion and I (or Youtube) am NOT responsible for anything that happens from you using this info. No animals were harmed in the making of this video (My simple disclaimer). Maybe this will work for you and maybe it won’t but it might be worth a look. Check it out for yourself. Now, I suggest you learn some simple photoshop skills. There are plenty of videos on how to use photoshop on Youtube and the web. RESEARCH!!! Next, Google image banks & royalty free photos. You will find several sites that will represent your works. Now, actually go to those sites and learn all you can. RESEARCH!!! Again, look at the photo categories & then sort by “download” and you will see the most downloaded images. That will give you an idea of what type of images are in demand. Next check the requirements of the image banks that interest you. Example: If an image bank needs photos to be at least 3GB in size and you only have a 1GB camera, well then you’ll have to overcome that problem won’t you? ADDITIONAL: This simple principal can be applied to artistic illustrations and video footage as well. IMPORTANT NOTE: This video is NOT an endorsement for any service. If someone uses this video to promote their book, DVD, etc on how to make money selling digital images (as they surely will), I suggest you use care before you decide to buy it.

  • Umfrage: Welche Fotografie-Blogs & -Magazine lest Ihr?

    Letzte Woche haben wir Euch danach gefragt, warum Ihr KWERFELDEIN lest. Heute fragen wir Euch, was Ihr im Web lest, das nicht KWERFELDEIN ist.

    Auch, wenn wir Redakteure unser Magazin sehr mögen, sind wir nicht die einzige Webseite, die sich um Fotografisches dreht. Auch wir sehen uns in einem Netzwerk von vielen kleinen und großen Blogs, verschiedensten Mags und Fotoseiten. Nicht selten stoßen wir über eben diese auf Fotografen, die wir dann hier vorstellen oder verlinken in den browserFruits auf einen Artikel, der uns gut gefallen hat.

    Doch wir wissen auch, dass wir mit unserem Magazin gewisse Menschengruppen anziehen und andere weniger. Leute, die ganz viel Technikwissen brauchen, werden bei uns nicht glücklich, aber die, die gern viel Persönliches und Hintergrundinfos über Fotografen lesen, schon. Und das sind nur zwei Beispiele.

    Und gerade deshalb interessiert es uns brennend, was Ihr, die Ihr hier gerne lest, denn sonst noch so konsumiert. Denn auch wir sind ständig auf der Suche nach Nischenblogs, neuen Fotowebsites und anderen Köstlichkeiten des Internets.

    Klar, lange Linklisten kann jeder. Aber kein Mensch liest ernsthaft 199 Blogs gleichzeitig. Deshalb wollen wir von Euch auch nur eine kleine Auswahl der Seiten, die Ihr lest, bitte beschränkt Euch auf maximal drei Links.

    Welche Fotografie-Blogs & -Magazine lest Ihr (außer KWERFELDEIN)?

    Wir wären dann bereit zum Klicken. Auf geht’s.

    Hinweis: Wir fragen hier nur nach Online-Angeboten. Eure Tipps für Fotoszeitschriften könnt Ihr gern in unserer letzten Umfrage zum Thema loswerden.
