What are you waiting for?!?
Head over to Zacutos website and watch the final episode here!

Tomorrow Scott Kelby are going to reveal something really new, fun, and challenging:

• It’s something we’ll be doing together every month, but each time it will be somewhat different (it’s not the Worldwide Photo Walk, but news on that is coming soon).
• This is something that will help us all expand our photographic skills, our Photoshop skills, our Lightroom Skills, our appreciation of the craft, and our Creativity (though not all at the same time).
• Tomorrow I’ll have a short video with all the details of this first Challenge, and I think you’ll really want to take part. It’s not easy, but I promise it will stretch you in a way that will be an awful lot of fun.
• Plus, it has a great twist that takes it over the top.
• For those of you that have blogs, Twitter or Facebook accounts, might you help me spread the word tomorrow to your fellow photographers? They’ll thank you on Monday (but of course, you get my thanks now).

I’m excited. I hope you will be, too.

This was a quote from Scott’s original post “Are You Ready For a Challange“

Well if you haven’t figured it out yet something amazing will happen soon or should I say in the next months or so.
Worldwide Photo Walk 2010 – Yeah Baby!

I can’t hold it back – I CAN’T WAIT!

If you don’t know what Worldwide Photo Walk is about I’ll tell ya what it’s about!
It’s a social photography event where photographers get together, usually in a downtown area or trendy section of town, to walk around, shoot photos, and generally have fun with other photographers.

I’ll keep you guys posted!

Btw – if you go to the category section (the menu bar below the main navigation) and go to “Events” you will see a sub category called “Worldwide Photo Walk”. There you will find everything that is about the WWPW if you missed a post.

WOOHOOO!

Today I got hold of the tickets for Toy Story and Toy Story 2 in 3D (one for me and one for my little sister).
Toy Story and Toy Story 2 in 3D will not be shown for the public, just for members only and they will only show the 3D version ONCE! – Yeah baby yeah

It’s like when you stand at the stage, looking at all of the people and you receive the Golden Globe/Oscar prize and say a few lines and at the same time trying not to burst into tears…, well almost haha.

I’ve been a Pixar fan as long as I can remember and I will always be a Pixar fan – The creations that the artists bring to life is just jaw dropping.

I just have to say it again – Wohoo I’ve got the TICKETS for Toy Story and Toy Story 2 in 3D

Hey guys!, totaly forgot to publish this post so I’m doing it now
I extended my equpment with the Elinchrom EL-Skyport (the image you see above) two weeks ago, I looked at the PocketWizard stuff aswell but decided to stick with the EL-Skyport due to the much lower price tag compared to the PocketWizard.
These babies have a range up to 150m outside according to the Elinchrome and indoors you will also have a very good range too (yeah, yeah, I know I forgot the number to the last one ).
Put up a Nikon SB-28 strobe (old good stuff) together with a bedsheet to diffuce the light and took some “quick and dirty” pictures to see how the system preformed. It worked like a charm and the biggest plus is the size!
Just one tip before you buy this set is to buy a 3,5mm to 2,5mm converter, for some strange reason Elinchrom didn’t include one in the set.

Zacuto have released the second part of the total three part series of “The Great Camera Shootout 2010“, so head over to Zacutos site and watch the next webisode.

If you read this post and have that big and I mean that BIG question mark above your head which tells you and all of the people around you that you haven’t the faintest idea what I’m talking about head over to the post “Is Digital Equally Good as Film?“.

Went over to Nikonrumors.com recently and saw a post which made me not so happy. The topic read: “No Nikon D700 replacement in 2010? I don’t think so”. It has almost been 2 years now since Nikon released the D700 on the market and as we all know technology have the habit to develop in the speed of light (or almost at the speed of light ) but in Nikons case it sees like they’ve hit the breaks.
Canon keeps pushing new DSLR houses to the market and almost everyone have support for at least 720p video recording. Ok, you might think “How on the earth would I need video recording when I’m specifically buying a DSLR to shoot pictures and not video, I could just buy a regular HD camcorder if I wanted to shoot video”. But here is the deal with video recording on DSLR:s, recently I put up a post talking about a company called Zacuto

Anyway back to the topic, this source who mentioned this to nikonrumors is a person who works very closely with nikon and the staff at nikonrumors have heard similar rumors before – maybe it’s true – maybe not. One thing is for sure that the time will tell and that is probably the best reliable source ever!

Cheers and have a great weekend!

Is digital equally good as film?
That question have I said to myself for a long time now without getting a proper answer… Until today!

The company Zacuto wanted an answer as well and took matters in their own hands. They called up some people, got together at the Skywalker ranch, did a large scale tests and shared to us (to the people around the world).
They’ve released the first Webisode out of three and the first one is approx 35 min long. Ok, you would probably say: “The quality will be compressed because it’s over the Internet and so on”. Yeah that’s true but the video is still in a very good resolution and you WILL definitely see the difference between digital an film.
When I saw the video I was convinced that digital had a long way to go before it would be in the same range as film, but man I was wrong. The digital evolution have evolved on a very fast phase, it wasn’t a very long time ago since we were only shooting with film.

The Great Camera Shootout 2010 is the name of the Webisode. Watch it, watch it again and you will be very impressed (I am anyway!).

It is soon here my friends, yeah I’m talking about Photoshop World 2010!
