How Much Importance is Capturing and Image vs Processing an Image in Landscape Phgotography?
I switched out of sports photography to 100% landscape photography about 5 years ago. With sports I shot mainly JPEGS but with landscape, all RAW. I believe it is a 50%/50% mix in creating a compelling image when it comes to capture/processing a land...
What Features Would You Like To See Added To Future Sony Cameras?
I have been in Iceland for the past 19 days working with the new Sony a7RV photographing landscapes, auroras, waves and waterfalls. What an awesome camera! Sony added two huge features that I love - Focus Bracketing and a Bulb Mode that I can set wit...
What photography accessory can you not live without??
I hate that mine is so simple, but it is an apron. I lay on the ground all the time and learned that a repurposed kitchen apron is a valuable asset for every shoot.

Looking forward to a 85 1.2
I would love an 85 1.2 lens from Sony, or even a 28-70 2.0!!! But mainly the 85 1.2. Anyone know if this is something they are working on, or anyone else feel the same way?
Using the widest aperture on fast primes

Focal length comparison for portraits

How a Used Sony RX100 III and what it Captured Along the Na Pali Coast
We started hiking in, and it was sunny and windy, and soon raining and still windy. The emerald blue water below us, with white waves crashing into the shoreline were captured. The vivid greens, and brightly colored flowers hugging the trail were see...
