That Classic Vintage Look

That Vintage Look

I get asked very, very often how I process my photographs. And it is no secret - most of the time, I simply use VSCO. It suits me so well, coincides with the way I see and pre-vizualise my work, my style and my taste so accurately, only rarely do...

Let’s Talk About Professionals

Lola Elise Portraits and Weddings (16)

I have a rather peculiar confession to make, something I've not spoken of loudly to all that many people before. Here goes: whenever someone asks me what I do in life, what I do for a living, I always cringe slightly. Now, I do not mean Photography Life - I...

Nikkor 200-400mm f/4G VR II

The Nikkor 200-400mm f/4G VR is a very versatile and sharp lens and those that own it or previously used it know that is a great choice for close action photography, such as photographing bears in Alaska. I recently saw a comment by a photographer, who claimed that the lens...

The Nikon D810 Visits Jackson & Yellowstone National Park

Moose

This summer’s adventure brought us to the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone National Park. We almost went back to Banff National Park for the third year in a row, but wildlife and landscape photos from 500px and flickr, as well as conversations with fellow travelers, convinced us that it might be...

Nikon DK-17M Review

Nikon DK-17M Magnifying Eyepiece

A fortunate event took place a couple of weeks ago - my wife Lola lost the eyecup from her Nikon Df camera (see our in-depth review of the Nikon Df). She wasn't sure how, but it most likely just got unscrewed while she was busy photographing a wedding. Why fortunate?...

Nikon D750

The Nikon D750 has the most advanced autofocus system Nikon has produced to date, thanks to its new Multi-CAM 3500 FX II autofocus module that is capable of focusing in dim light conditions with a -3 EV to +19 EV detection range. While the camera is capped at 6.5 frames...

ioSafe 1513+ Review

ioSafe 1513

Being a professional photographer, I constantly deal with a large flow of photographs that need to be imported, processed and backed up as part of the workflow process. Although I do everything I can to keep several copies of my photo library on different computers and storage devices, it is...

JPEGmini Pro Review

September 9, 2014 By Nasim Mansurov 46 Comments

JPEGmini Pro Total Space Saved

When providing high-resolution images to our clients, or uploading images to this website, I often extract JPEG images between 70%-85% quality. Although some photographers often do extract their images at 100% quality, I rarely feel the need to do it, since file sizes get outrageously big, while the differences in...

What is a Decentered Lens?

September 6, 2014 By Nasim Mansurov 46 Comments

Decentered Lens

A decentered lens contains one or more optical lens elements that are either moved or tilted from the principal axis of the lens. Such shifting or tilting of lens elements can potentially lead to blurring / softness of parts of the image due to divergence of light rays. While very...

Working with difficult files Image 1

I recently spent a lot of time working with some quite challenging files to prepare my recent article “Photographing aircraft in flight with the Tamron 150-600mm”, and a Photography Life reader asked if I could share some of the details of the processing that I do with difficult files. (more…)
