How to Choose Between Similar Versions of a Photo

Posted on June 4, 2024 by ShutterBug

Something tough about photography is choosing between similar variations of the same photo. If you’re especially shutter-happy, you might end up with many similar photos on your hard drive without a clear “best” image among them. Although you could just pick one of these photos at random, I think that it’s much better to put some thought into your decision and choose between them carefully. The small things definitely matter in photography, and this can be a golden opportunity to put your personal style into practice.

Photography News: Rumored f/1.8 Full-Frame Zoom, DSLR Sales

Posted on June 2, 2024 by ShutterBug

By the time you read this week’s Photography News, I’ll have left the continent of Europe to be within shouting distance of the Equator. I’m spending the next two weeks in a natural paradise populated by hummingbirds, toucans, tanagers, and of course great people. Meanwhile, I have some interesting equipment to test and some new experiences to bring back. Oversight of our weekly news will pass to Spencer for the time being – I’ll see you again when I return!

Photographing the Jardim Botânico Gardens of São Paulo

Posted on May 31, 2024 by ShutterBug

As the world’s 20th largest city, with over 12.4 million people, Brazil’s São Paulo is dominated by concrete, factories, and human habitation. In such a metropolis, green space feels all the more precious. Perhaps no green space here is better-known than the beautiful and serene Jardim Botânico, or Botanic Gardens.

Is Now the Time to Buy Used Nikon DSLR Lenses?

Posted on May 28, 2024 by ShutterBug

Nikon F-mount cameras and lenses have been around for 65 years. In that time, Nikon has introduced more than 90 different types of lenses, ranging from the 6mm f/2.8 Circular Fisheye to the 2000mm f/11.0 Reflex. In 2016, the 100 millionth Nikkor lens rolled off the production line. Yet just two years later, the Nikon Z Mount was born, and Nikon all but ceased paying attention to their venerable F Mount lenses.
