While there is no “must” setting for shutter speed when shooting video, there are practical limits. Action shooters are typically shooting shutter speeds for stills that are too fast for making good video. So with sincere thanks to Coach Crockett for helping us understand that a range of shutter speeds work and provide quality, interesting [...]
Slide-in external microphones for hybrid photographers looking to shoot talking portraits can make a BIG boost in audio quality. And they can also be difficult to use, expensive, easy to break, and hard to adjust. There is no one perfect solution. We’re testing a bunch and one has popped up on our list as not [...]

I’m a Hybrid Hero who has decades of experience in radio and television production, and right now I’d like to focus on the Secret Ingredient that cam make or break your Hybrid eProducts.

I said in the Sheroe’s Google Hangout of our favorite tools for video that mine was my brain. What I meant is I think differently when I add video and audio to my sessions. My main goal as a photographer has been to show people being real while keeping me in the equation, I am [...]
In the world of photographer we’ve been hearing talk about death. Death of film, death of print…its just not true. Analog formats will not go away anytime soon. Most likely analog formats will become something of a prized craft like someone who shoots film, processes the negative and makes a beautiful print by hand. For [...]
