I recently got the Panasonic 35-100 mm lens (the equivalent to the DSLR 70-200 mm) and it allows me to come in close and create those intimate portraits I love. This is my new number one reason I love shooting with a mirrorless camera: ability to get in close with a a telephoto lens. It’s [...]
In response to a viewer request, I recorded with first the shotgun and then the stereo settings/mics on the new Panasonic mic for the GH3. Both sound good, although different. The biggest difference is when the shotgun is pointed away at 90 then 180 degrees. Because of being in my studio, even then the sound [...]
I was talking to a friend of mine who recently purchased a Panasonic Lumix LX7 fixed lens compact camera and she wanted to learn how to use it as “more than a point-n-shoot”. There’s been a flood of high quality compact cameras hitting the market recently, including the Pentax MX1, the Fuji X20, the Sony [...]
After migrating Hybrid Photography into what I am already doing it got me to thinking. As Hybrid Photographers we need to find more ways to incorporate Hybrid eProducts into what we are already shooting. I know I do a lot of different things that aren’t my professional clientele. So I’ve decided to bring an [...]
We are in central Indiana shooting a project for Purdue University and I need a way to create an online message to catch the eye of a college kid that is serious about becoming a Pharmacist. In case you are unfamiliar, pharmacy is a really tough degree and Purdue is known as one of the [...]
Hi guys I wanted to share my point of view on a subject a few of my fellow Hybrid Heroes have been discussing recently. That is horizontal vs. vertical photography. It seems that a lot of the industry is moving towards horizontal photography, especially now that we are shooting more video. I think our brains [...]
The last (4 of 4) in this series on the mechanics of shooting video. Having discussed video concepts via the GH3′s menu, explored the 3 video modes/file types, and identifying the shooting methods (automated vs manual) in the first 3 segments, the last stretch of this journey is about the options available within each recording [...]
Street photography is a fun way to shoot and share the environment around you. Taking your camera with you everywhere you go is a great idea since you’ll never know what or who you’ll find. Since I specialize in portraits I love to capture people in my street photography. Miami being my home, I’m always [...]
There are 3 ways to shoot video on the GH3 (and GH2, G5, probably others). The first is iA which is the most automated, next is P-S-A-M, which is somewhat automated and third is Manual Movie Mode. The first 2 use the “red” button and the third uses the shutter release. We explore the ramifications [...]
In part 4 of 4 I’ll show you how I can quickly build custom settings such as Retro, Color and Monochrome looks and store them in the GH3′s C1-3 buttons…like a BOSS. Now that you got your function buttons set, quick menu customized and JPEG settings you’re almost ready to shoot like a boss playa. [...]
