Digital Photography RAW vs JPEG Part 1

froknowsphoto.com I got to sit down for an “interview” with Ken Rockwell and talk about RAW vs JPEG. Well not exactly, I am still waiting on a response from Ken to have an open minded discussion about RAW and JPEG and get his take. This is the first in a series of videos where I take reasons for not shooting RAW and dispel them. #1 “I get it right in the camera” Nothing I love more than hearing I get it right in the camera!!

Digital Photography Lightroom Editing Tips

froknowsphoto.com Here we are again editing another user submitted RAW file, remember that neither Greg nor I took this picture and it was submitted by a reader of the web site. This weeks image was captured with the Nikon D3000 and Nikon 55-300 VR Lens. It is a great capture of a blade of grass with water on it. I was really surprised to see how sharp the focus was on the blade of grass and water. When I was editing it I took the approach of making it pop as much as possible but making it seem a little darker. If you remember the movie Honey I Shrunk the Kids a lot of the movie is filmed in the grass and it just seemed darker when you were on that level. That is why my image looks darker, i figured if your on the level of the grass its probably in the shade and should take on a darker quality. Greg decided to try to very different edits this week, one a little warmer and the other a little colder. This excursive week in and week out shows you different ways that images can be edited, Always remember that photography does not stop when you press the shutter button, it continues into your post processing. If you would like to submit a RAW file for us to edit please e mail FroKnowsPhoto@gmail.com To see the 3 images from this video side by side click here froknowsphoto.com

Digital Photography Photo Plus Expo

froknowsphoto.com Greg and I made our yearly journey to Photo Plus Expo again this year to see what everyone had to offer. We want to thank all the readers who stopped to say hello when they saw us walking around the show. For those of you who don’t know what PPE is its where you get to see the latest and greatest offerings that the photo industry has. Anything from new cameras to accessories to albums and peripherals. It is a great place to check out whats new, get your hands on some cool toys and ask questions of people who have answers. We stopped by the BlackRapid booth to do an interview with LaRae Lobdell which you can see in the video below. Greg and I ended up staying for almost two hours helping people find which strap is best for them. Honestly if you don’t have one of these straps the best thing I can say is find a store that sells them and try it on for yourself. Another company that we are big fans of is ThinkTank Photo, they make some amazing and useful bags for Pros and consumers alike. We got a chance to interview Kurt Rogers who is one of the CO founders and great photographer. Check out Kurts interview below to hear the story behind how think tank photo got started and what is next from them. A bunch of us went to the PDN BASH which was on the Intrepid which is a decommissioned war ship docked on the hudson. I was expecting a full on party with food, drinks and interesting things going on. Well, we all paid to stand around for 3 hours, not eat any
