A post by Kaspars Grinvalds from Posing App . If you haven’t read the first article in this series, I would kindly recommend you to start with Posing Guide for Photographing Women: 7 Poses to Get You 21 Different Photos – Part I where we started with 7 standing poses. Let’s continue this time with 7 sitting poses for female subjects and their possible variations in order to get at least three different shots for each pose. Pose 1 Nice and simple pose to start with. Ask your model to sit comfortably with knees placed together. One hand relaxed on the knees while the other hand placed near the neck. And remind her to straighten the spine. Photo 1 – This basic starting point provides you with many different choices to continue with. But in the very beginning you may want to just test different shooting angles and heights and check what works best for your model. Photo 2 – After I got the first shot similar to the sample, I asked the model to lower both arms and rest them on the knee...

Metabuscadores de cámaras hemos reseñado unos cuantos. Parece que la masa de compradores indecisos es un mercado digno de explotar y fueron los casos de Sortable , el metabuscador por excelencia y Snapsort , un comparador de funcionalidades. En este caso sale un servicio nuevo a la luz, pero con un poco más de intuición y principalmente enfocado a la decisión de comprar un nuevo dispositivo: CameraRocket . CameraRocket está orientado para aquellos que buscan comprar una nueva cámara, pero aun no se han decidido por un determinado modelo . Su sitio comienza preguntando que modelos quieres comparar —aunque también puedes buscar por uno solo— y procede a mostrarte la información relevante de ambos modelos, comparándolos entre si y agregando otros terceros que ayudan a tomar una mejor decisión. Lo novedoso de este sitio es que no solo se basa en especificaciones técnicas, sino que tiene también un agregado subjetivo, ya que se comparan las reseñas de los sitios especializados, como DPRev...

Want support for your camera without lugging a tripod around? We put six sensibly priced monopods to the test to find out which is the best monopod for DSLR photography enthusiasts. Any decent tripod will give a stable shooting platform, but tripods are heavy, bulky and time-consuming to set up. With only one leg, monopods are more manageable. A greater number of leg sections enables a monopod to fold down smaller for carrying. The trade-off is that setup time is slightly longer if you need to extend all the sections, as there are more clamps to operate. Each clamp is also a potential weak point that can introduce unwanted flexing. Another factor to bear in mind is that the more leg sections you have, the thinner and more spindly the bottom sections will be. Monopods that feature tilting heads enable shooting in portrait orientation (upright) as well as in landscape orientation, so are far more versatile. If your chosen monopod is lacking this tilt facility, you may need to factor in ...

The popularity of radio for flash triggering reached a new level when triggers offering more than the “normal” flash sync opened new doors of experimentation to photographers. I’ll show you how to use the Phottix Odin, a product quickly gaining ground in the industry. Keep in mind that these instructions are adaptable to many other radio flash triggers. The Phottix Odin radio flash trigger offer TTL functions and advanced functions for photographers. Until recently there was only one popular name when it came to TTL (Through The Lens) radio flash triggers: Pocket Wizard. You would find other brands mentioned, such as Radio Popper, but in general terms Pocket Wizard was the way to go. It still is for many people, but since Eastern companies started to offer their cheap non-TTL solutions over eBay, the user demographics have expanded while we saw better and better systems appear on the market. Phottix is the evolution of this process. Radio Trigger Sync Speeds In terms of triggers, the...

Tal vez algunos recordaréis Luxi , un accesorio para el iPhone que permitía convertir el terminal de Apple en un fotómetro de luz incidente. Pues bien, ahora llega Lumu un nuevo accesorio para el iPhone que permitirá a los fotógrafos conocer los valores correctos de apertura, velocidad de disparo e ISO . Con un tamaño compacto y un conector jack de 3.5mm, Lumu se coloca en la entrada de auricular del iPhone . A partir de ahí y con el uso de una aplicación el dispositivo mide los valores de luz incidente para calcular los parámetros más idóneos para así obtener el resultado más perfecto posible. De momento los creadores de Lumu han lanzado una campaña en el ya conocido acelerador de proyectos Kickstarter para conseguir la financiación necesaria. Cifra inicial de 20.000 dólares que de momento ya han superado por lo que ahora sólo es cuestión que esté disponible en tiendas. Y ahora, al igual que la otra vez, si queréis probar a usar vuestro dispositivo iOS o Android como fotómetro podé...
