  • DJI recently released its "GoPro killer" - the DJI Osmo Action. I've been using this camera for about a week now - so how does it stack up to the GoPro Hero7 Black? Both do 4k video and 12 megapixel stills. Both have incredible image stabilization (with a slight edge to the Osmo). But what about timelapse, hyperlaps and the other features action cameras are now expected to have? We'll take a look in this video.

    For more on blazing fast GPU check out https://nvda.ws/2VLmFAX

    GPU cards are an essential part off the graphic performance in your computer. In this video we’ll take a look at an external GPU or eGPU setup.

    I'm using a Dell XPS 15 9570 laptop, but you can use any laptop that supports Thunderbolt 3 and has a minimum of 16GB of RAM and an i5 processor (i7 8th generation recommended) - this could be somethign like the Razer Blade 15, Razer Blade Stealth or HP Spectre 13. You can also run an eGPU with a Macbook but using NVIDIA cards is going to require a lot of workarounds.

    This is an excellent way to speed up the performance of applications such as Lightroom, Premiere Pro and After Effects by adding an external GPU card.

    Also worth noting - as I am posting this video, NVIDIA has just announced as I’m releasing this video, NVIDIA has announced their new RTX Studio laptops. These new Laptops are designed for creative work and are boasting some serious specs. The new Studio drivers have been tested extensively with applications by Adobe, Epic, Autodesk, Unity and Blackmagic Design specifically with creative workflows in mind.

  • Learn how to match the color grade from any image to one of your own!

    Check out my Preset Pack for Adobe Lightroom/Adobe ACR http://theartofphotography.tv/presets

    The heart of color grading comes down to understanding how light and color work in the highlight, midtone and shadow areas of a photograph. In this video I'll use Adobe Photoshop to illustrate the concept and how it works. Of course this same idea can be applied to any software application that you are using for photography (Lightroom, Luminare, DX0, Capture One etc).

    • Understand how to sample colors and see toning in both shadow and highlight detail
    • find the midtones
    • match a color grade using a color balance adjustment layer
    • match a color grade using a curves adjustment layer

  • Dogfish Head is an amazing brewery in Deleware - they've released a Gose called Super Eight. Currently collaborating on a film with Kodak, they claim this beer can be the perfect catalist for developing film. I decided to put it to the test. Can you actually develop film using beer? Develop responsibly.

  • Editing video on an iPad is a complete game changer.

    Lumafusion is an incredible NLE from some former Avid developers that literally makes it possible to take advantage of the iPad for video editing. I've switched over to editing on mobile this year and use it on my iPad pro as well as my iPhone. Both are faster than my desktop computer. I talked about this in a video a few weeks ago and had a good number of requests for a tutorial. So here it is!

    Of course, this video was edited in Lumafusion ;-)

  • This is a short film with video footage and stills with the Sony 135mm f/1.8 G Master portrait lens.

    I thought I'd do something different for this video since I had so much good stuff from the Sony shoot. So this is presented as a short collection of visuals without me talking. If you want to see the full review - the video is below.

    Thanks to Sony for organizing the event at the Greenpoint Terminal Station which is an event space in Brooklyn, NY.

    Video footage was shot with the 135mm G Master on a Sony A7 III
    Stills were shot with the 135 G Master on a Sony A9

  • The Sony 135mm f/1.8 G Master lens is the 31st lens in Sony's full-frame, e-mount lineup.

    I quickly fell in love with this lens - it is outstanding. Designed for longer portraits, this has some of the best optical rendering that I've seen on any lens to date. This is the ultimate portrait lens. Bokeh is excellent, it has outstanding sharpness and the autofocus speeds are impressive. This has the same XD linear drive system that is found in the Sony 400mm f/2.8 G Master as well as the Sony 24mm f/1.4 G Master lenses.

    One correction - around 03:17 I say there's little spherical aberration at small apertures when in face I meant to say diffraction. This is where the sharpness softens in the lens and for most lenses this starts around f/16. Its been a long week - sorry for the confusion.

  • There was a huge surprise in the mail today!

    I get some amazing things sent to me by viewers. Today I got two Sam Haskins books that are fabulous!

    Sam Haskins was a British-born, South African photographer famous for his photo books in the 1960's. These featured his style of "in camera" montage images. His son Ludwig Haskins sent these to me. What an honor!

  • Canon has just announced a new entry level, full frame mirrorless camera - the Canon EOS RP.

    The most interesting features on this new camera are the RP's small size and its price. Its the most affordable full frame mirrorless camera to be introduced in the last year. But this makes me wonder, what is the point of the Canon RP? It doesn't have any more features than the DSLR cameras that currently exists, so unless your requirements are an extremely small size, why would this be a camera of interest?

    Pre-order the Canon EOS R from B&H https://goo.gl/7QqFxj
    or Amazon https://amzn.to/2IdP9C7

  • This weekend I went to Marfa, TX to visit the Chinati Foundation. Of course, no photography allowed.

    I'm always the first to defend the right to photograph, but in this case I actually agree with the policy. Experiencing the works of art by Donald Judd, Dan Flavin, John Chamberlain, Robert Irwin and many others - it requires attention. These are experience and environmental works that can't be reproduced in a photograph anyway. This does make it difficult to share my experience in this video, but I can talk about these works which is probably more important anyway.

  • This weekend I'm headed to Marfa, TX. Why?

    The main reason is Donald Judd. Judd is one of the leading minimilist artists from the 1970's and 1980's. While working in New York City, he started purchasing property in West Texas to display his large scale environmental works. Today, Chinati features works by Judd as well as Dan Flavin, Claes Oldenberg and Robert Irwin.

    I'm going to be vlogging my trip over the next few days. But before I do we need to discuss minimalism.

  • Panasonic has officially debuted the first 2 mirrorless cameras for its full frame, mirrorless L mount - the Panasonic S1 and S1R.

    Or at least they sponsored an event which had cameras that sort of worked.

    Despite the lack of final firmware and the minimal shooting time for those who attended, we do at least have a preview of what these cameras will do. I feel fairly optimistic. Panasonic Lumix is going to be a major player this year in the mirrorless camera market.

    Both cameras available for preorder:
    Panasonic S1 https://goo.gl/EZ5a5o
    Panasonic S1R https://goo.gl/bZVBCw

  • Can I actually use my iPhone and my iPad Pro to replace work that I do on my iMac?

    The bulk of the work I do on a computer centers around photography and video. The idea of working on mobile is attractive to me because I spend a good amount of the year traveling. When I’m not traveling, I find myself back in the office chained to the desk for long hours of editing. Ideally if I could find a way to make mobile devices actually work for me, I could be more productive and have more freedom to be present in the moment - not chained to a computer.

    Apple is now showing some real promise for a graphics intensive workflow - if you don't mind a few workarounds.

  • A recent video and article have been going around recently claiming a photographer was dropped from a job for Canon because she didn't have 50,000 followers on Instagram.

    This video really got my attention - in fact, it made me angry because not only is the information not clear - its suspect. And its generally wrong. I have a few thoughts on the matter…
