This “Technical Guide” details the principal techniques used to create two of the more technically advanced photographs in the D800/D800E catalog. Enjoy this opportunity to admire the skills of professional photographers who have mastered the D800/D800E. While its high pixel count of 36 megapixels gives the D800/ D800E resolution unrivalled by previous digital SLR cameras, a side effect is that bokeh and blur are made that much more obvious. Realizing the full potential of a camera with over 30 million pixels involves a thorough appreciation of bokeh and blur, careful selection of settings and of tools (such as lenses and tripods), and working with the best possible subjects.

All artist face it one time or another. We loath the work we do, wondering "Is it good enough?" In this episode of the Digital Convergence Podcast, episode number 62, aptly titled Is There A Psych In The House? - Chris Fenwick and planetMitch provide a little psycho-therapy for my wounded artistic ego and help me face my self-doubt and loathing I sometimes feel towards my work. I worry about doing not only competent work, but desire to do great work. However, does every video we produce have to be a great "epic" to fulfill it's purpose? It's a rather gnarly and sensitive topic. How about you? Do you feel angst over the quality of your work? How many passion projects do you need to do to get through the grind of merely competent work? We would love to share your comments on a future episode of the show. planetMitch note: gosh this was a fun show... haven't laughed so much on a show in a long time.
This year's Oscar nominees for cinematography present a particularly varied cross-section of contemporary filmmaking at a time when the very infrastructure of how movies are made and seen is in transition... planetMitch note: very interesting discussion! For example: "The only vocal anti-digitalist among this year's nominees is Janusz Kaminski, nominated for Steven Spielberg's "War Horse." The Polish-born Kaminski won Oscars for Spielberg's"Schindler's List" and"Saving Private Ryan," and though he recently shot in digital for the first time while working on a commercial, he decried digital as a harbinger of "the death of the cinematographer." "Generally speaking, I don't have respect for digital media just yet," he added..."

So you want the lightest ‘roller bearing’ slider available? Varavon’s got a pretty good thing going with it’s slim version sliders, but pricing has not always been in our favor. Today that’s all changed. There’s a pretty good sale going on right now, and It appears there’s been some design changes to their slider product. This is a new Slider in their product lineup called the ‘Slidecam Lite’. It’s still the slimmest and lightest roller bearing slider on the market, with adjustable legs / feet. Starting as small as 24″ long and prices just over $250. I just picked up the 24″ version, couldn’t pass up the price. You can find them on sale right now following the link (click here). planetMitch note: Varavon is a planet5D sponsor
