In this video I’ll tell you what types of monitors suit photographers. In photography it’s important to use a monitor that produces accurate colour reproduction and is easy to calibrate. I’ll tell you what ones are best to buy on a budget and give you short review on the one we choose to use here at TSoP which is the BenQ SW271 monitor.

If you’re a vlogger (and really, who among us isn’t a vlogger these days?) then there’s a very promising new camera out there that might really help you do that thing you do: the Sony ZV-1. Sony is calling the ZV-1 the “Camera for Content Creators and Vloggers.” Personally, I’ve always taken issue with the phrases “content” and “content creator” ever since I first heard them refer to writers, photographers, or videographers who put their works onto the internet. The phrases make me imagine a factory that runs 24/7 to churn out “content” for us, the dumb masses, to consume blindly and unquestioningly. Of course, that’s a stupid mental image, especially when it’s coming from a guy who’s literally writing an article now that will be published on the internet…

Most photographers will happily spend money on cameras and lenses, but we’re less inclined to think about computer equipment and the effect it has on the post production of our images. For those of us who are primarily interested in the taking of photos, monitors are usually a long way down the list of considerations! So in this article, I’m going to run through the tech specs of monitors and help you to choose the right one for your needs. WHY IS YOUR MONITOR IMPORTANT? A good monitor allows you to view your photos in detail, whist also giving you complete color accuracy. It means that you can print images with a complete color spectrum and also means that you can share them with an accurate color space. It’s also…

Birds are a challenging photography subject. They move quickly and can often be fairly small, meaning that they take a certain amount of skill to capture accurately. In this masterclass, I’m going to look at the equipment and techniques that you need to photograph birds and produce beautiful images. EQUIPMENT You do need some specific camera gear in order to be able to photograph birds successfully. Your camera and lenses need to be capable of shooting fast action photography. The ideal camera for bird photography needs to be able to shoot at shutter speeds of at least 1/2000th of a second with a decent fps (frames per second) rate and big camera buffer to handle large bursts of images. Of course, high end pro cameras are likely to give you…

Conceived as a 24-hour tour, this timelapse begins with a sunrise over the volcano Teide of Tenerife and travels through the most characteristic enclaves of El Hierro, ending with a series of nocturnal scenes where you see something that not many people get to see, the Milky Way so clear and without light pollution that it can be seen coming out of the sea. And it is that El Hierro is the essence of nature, clouds that travel from the Atlantic, laurel forests that feed on them, wild beaches between formations of surreal lavas mixed in a paradise… This timelapse has been acquired by the Island Goverment of El Hierro for tourist promotion of the island. My sincerest gratitude to the El Hierro administration for providing me this honor. Follow…

The Sony ZV-1 is a video camera for YouTubers, vloggers, and other creators. It has a flippy screen and it’s in the right place - the side - where it won’t be blocked by the mic or tripod. It supports wireless microphone connections, or if you do want a wired microphone, the mic jack doesn’t block the screen! It has a product showcase feature that actually gets what you’re holding in focus for things like unboxings and makeup videos… and it works! But it has some serious problems, too. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Chelsea and Tony Northrup are photographers based in Connecticut. They are the creators of the top-rated photography book, “Tony Northrup’s DSLR Book: How to Create Stunning Digital Photography” which features over nine hours of video training and free…
