    by Alex Cooke on 5th March 2026 at 12:03

    Dramatic portraits often come down to one thing: how you control light across texture. If your images feel flat, the issue is usually direction, not gear.  [Read More]

  • It’s Time for Camera Companies to Build One Last Great 35mm SLR
    by Steven Van Worth on 4th March 2026 at 22:09

    Every film shooter has a version of this story.  You finally talk a friend into trying film. They’re excited, they’ve seen all the moody Portra portraits and grainy street shots on Instagram, and they want to experience the magic themselves. You hand them a thrift-store SLR you scored for forty dollars, loaded with a fresh roll. They bring it back a week later with a nervous smile. “The shutter sounds… weird. Is that normal?” [Read More]

  • Your Photography Is Working, So Why Do You Still Feel Creatively Stuck?
    by Jada Parrish on 4th March 2026 at 17:03

    Most photographers do not get creatively stuck because they stop shooting. They get stuck because their process becomes too efficient. That is where we were. Then I heard this quote by the art critic Jerry Saltz, and it unlocked something. This was the quote.“Art is slow, physical, resistant, material; it involves an ongoing commitment to doing the same thing differently over and over again.”— Jerry Saltz [Read More]

  • Muscle Memory and Quick Decisions in Wildlife Photography
    by Massimo Vignoli on 4th March 2026 at 22:27

    The idea for this article was born high in the mountains, while chatting with other photographers about what we had managed to capture during the fleeting appearance of a Bearded Vulture (which I wrote about in this article). Some of us nailed the shots in the few available seconds, and others fumbled with buttons and dials—or couldn’t find the subject in the viewfinder. The difference came down to muscle memory and the ability to set the camera quickly.

  • Which Lens for Photographing People: Prime or Zoom?
    by Libor Vaicenbacher on 3rd March 2026 at 22:31

    Not so long ago, my answer to the title question would have come out almost automatically: a prime lens, of course! Just a few decades ago, zoom lenses suffered from a whole range of optical compromises that made their use for portraiture and documentary photography somewhat questionable. But today? If your budget allows, you can buy a standard zoom with an f/2 aperture whose optical quality rivals — or even surpasses — many prime lenses, and instead of carrying four lenses, you can get away with just one. And yet, the popularity of prime lenses doesn’t seem to be declining. Quite the opposite. So which one is better for photographing people?

  • Photography News: A Roundup from the CP+ Trade Show
    by Spencer Cox on 2nd March 2026 at 04:22

    I find that winter is a great time to look back through photos taken during the summer. And vice versa – I’m always working on my coldest photos during the hottest months. Although it has been unseasonably warm in Colorado this year, I still found myself revisiting some photos from last July earlier this week. The bright greens aren’t a color I’ll see out here in nature for another month or two, but the joy of photography is that their vibrance can be recorded for us to enjoy no matter what month it is. I hope that March brings you some good photos and interesting moments. February certainly had a lot of activity in the photography world.

  • “The Printer Is Alive and It Hates Us”
    by Spencer Cox on 27th February 2026 at 22:55

    Despite what it may look like, today's article is a success story. But it sure didn't start that way. Maybe you remember a short article that we published last year called "Our Printer Is Here!" Well, the exclamation mark at the end of that title turned out to be a little optimistic.

  • Leica Q3 Review: The Ultimate Compact Camera?
    by Libor Vaicenbacher on 26th February 2026 at 02:27

    Leica cameras, with their century-long history, are masters at tugging on our emotional heartstrings. But can they also satisfy the pragmatic side of our nature? After all, a camera is, first and foremost, a tool for making photographs. So, I set my emotions aside and put the most expensive compact camera on the market, the Leica Q3, to the test.

    In order to use light correctly and make the right choice of camera settings, one needs to understand how the three elements aperture, shutter speed and iso work together.
