Small gifts for great photographers by Annewiek Doorhof

 

A few weeks ago I saw an add of PhotoJojo.com (Google knows my interests, mmm). This online webshop sells the most marvellous stupendous outrageous fantatabulous prodigious tremendous photography curiosities on earth. Really these are their own words. They have been mentioned in Scott Kelby’s online show The Grid a few times. So they must be reliable.

As it is always difficult to buy small presents for the coming holiday seasons, especially for a man who has “everything” he needs, I took a look in this shop. Many of you know Frank is into analogue photography nowadays, or better said this is his analogue revival (we bought a fridge especially for al the analogue stuff, and it’s already filled up), and this webshop offers indeed a lot of great gifts, ranging from cheap to expensive. But most of all (in this case) Photojojo sells a lot of analogue gadgets and has free shipping in the US. Because we planned on doing a workshops with our big “small flash” friends of ExpoImaging in Santa Cruz, I  already earned 12 USD for shipping, having the shipment sent to them (hey we are Dutch after all).

Center focus point or something else

/7 Comments/in , /by

Now this question is asked a LOT and I really mean A LOT.
“Frank why do you move your camera up and down?”
“Which focus point should I use?”

ZVIEWFINDER

Both questions actually boils down to the same answer.
I grew up with analogue photography, meaning focussing manually with a great (and sometimes not so great) focus screen, often this were the screens where you would see the image opaque in the center when it was in focus, plus/or a circle that made the image broken up or complete when out/in focus. These focus “helpers” where always in the middle of the frame, now did this mean that your subject was always in the middle…. no of course not, you would focus, recompose and shoot.
