In This Issue
- The latest Four-Thirds SLR from Olympus is more an upgraded version of the E-400 (launched last year) than a totally new model. It retains the slim, compact shell and the 10-megapixel resolution, but boasts a number of new features including a different sensor and updated specification. We put it through its paces.
- Despite being only 37 years old, Jim Marks is already an established force in the world of commercial photography. In particular, his portrait photography – usually of leading celebrities – has helped him gain a strong reputation for modern, upbeat images of entertainment’s leading stars. Daniel Lezano discovers hard work and a creative mind are the secrets to his success.
- What else can broken bones, spliced out tendons and two hundred miles an hour mean other than the insane sport of the Superbike? Manchester-based photographer Brett Harkness flew out to sun-soaked Spain to capture rising leather-clad UK star Michael Howarth at full flight in pre-season training. Death wish anybody?
- Its easy to come to the conclusion that without a studio kit of some sort it’s impossible to get quality results. Our Photoshop expert Luke Marsh shows you step-by-step how to convert a standard still-life snap, taken on white cardboard in ambient light conditions, into a polished commercial style still-life image.
- Nature is one of the most popular subjects to photograph, as well as being one of the most technically challenging. In this short series, award-winning natural history photographer Ross Hoddinott shares his knowledge of photographing nature exclusively with Digital SLR Photography readers. This month, Ross reveals how to capture great images of the insects currently buzzing and scurrying about.
- Learning how to reveal movement in a still image offers you several creative options for adding extra interest to your images. You’d be forgiven for thinking that the only time you’d have movement in your images is when you’re photographing action or sports. While these types of subjects are obvious choices for capturing motion in your images, you’ll find that almost any type of subject offers potential. From photographing landscapes to urban scenes of people, this month’s beginner’s guide shows you different ways of revealing movement in your pictures.
