iPhone is not a real camera

I had the realization I take more photos on my iPhone than I do with an actual camera. So, I decided to ditch my iPhone 17 Pro and swap it for an iPhone 17 Air. I deleted all my photos and iCloud and explore the idea of NOT using an iPhone to take photos. Many reasons support this, and you will find out those reasons as we compare the phone against Canon R5s, V1s and other suitable options.

This Camera Makes No Sense!

A full‑frame 12K cinema camera for under $6,000?! Why? HOW!? Intimate Home Portraits: https://linktr.ee/mattgranger 12K PYXIS at B&H: https://bhpho.to/3NGDJJF The new Blackmagic PYXIS 12K delivers jaw‑dropping specs at a price that makes no sense: a 12,288 × 8040 sensor, 16 stops of dynamic range, and modular box‑style design that rivals cameras costing three times as much. It’s powerful, disruptive, and built for filmmakers who value image quality over convenience. Of course, there are trade‑offs: no continuous autofocus, no internal ND filters, and massive storage demands. Interestingly, the PYXIS 6K version just received a firmware update adding continuous autofocus, showing where Blackmagic is heading with usability. If you want to check out the PYXIS 12K or 6K for yourself, head to B&H here: https://bhpho.to/3NGDJJF For those of you shooting in tight environments, I’ve also created a dedicated Small Spaces Portrait Course to help you master lighting, posing, and composition even when space is limited.

The smallest journal in the world 🤏🏼

I got my hands on what might be the smallest journal ever made — handcrafted by the incredible team at Peg and Awl. The level of detail on this thing is absolutely insane. We're talking a tiny portrait, real pages, all of it done by hand. I couldn't believe it when I opened it. If you appreciate craftsmanship and handmade goods, this one's for you. Check out @pegandawl for more of their work.

Is this the most famous camera of all time?

I finally got my hands on one of the most iconic cameras of all time and the first thing I did was swap out the focusing screen. Not gonna lie — I was nervous. These things are legendary for a reason, and the engineering that went into the focus systems and viewfinders back then still blows my mind. Managed to pull it off with zero fingerprints.

Making life hard, on purpose - Lessons from 30 Years behind the mic. George Stroumboulopoulos ep. 3

Get that website rippin! Save some money while you're at it! https://squarespace.com/mckinnon - Up and running by end of day! Actually. End of day if you're slow. In this podcast episode, I speak with Canadian Broadcast LEGEND George Stroumboulopoulos, on how he's willingly chosen the hard path for 30+ years and remained at the very forefront of his craft. Interviewing some of the worlds' biggest celebrities, politicians and personalities - what it's like to maintain this level and when to call it quits. George Stroumboulopoulos: IG: https://www.instagram.com/strombo/ YT: https://www.youtube.com/@TheStromboShow/videos WEB: https://future.strombo.com I've wanted to have this conversation for a LONG time. Strombo" is someone I grew up watching on MuchMusic. Speakers corner, channel 29! This were the days :) Now, he's sitting across from me in my studio and we're just… talking. LOL life is wild. We chat creating, independence, about choosing the harder path and not being mad about it. He's been streaming since 1995 before anyone knew what that meant (or most of you were even alive) why the 'learning loop' is the most dangerous thing for creatives, and how he deals with people who've literally made TV shows trying to take him down. Spicy. His answer to that one stuck with me. It's a fun one, appreciate you being here!

Photographers WILL lose to AI if they don't do this

Go to http://squarespace.com/Tony & save 10% off your first website or domain with code “Tony" Talk to AI tony at http://SDP.io/talktotony The photography community is mad about AI, and I am too. But getting angry isn’t going to stop the technology from changing our industry. Instead of fighting the inevitable, I decided to start using AI to fight AI. My goal isn’t to replace my photography with generative imagery, but to use these powerful new tools as my productivity and creative assistants. In this video, I’ll show you exactly how I’m using AI tools (primarily Google Gemini) to save hours of time, create more creative images, and move my craft forward. I cover: Pre-Visualization: Using generative AI to test lighting, outfits, and concepts before the client shows up (and getting easy sign-off with mood boards). Location Scouting & Travel Research: Getting instant advice on the best spots, parking, logistical timing, and necessary gear suggestions based on thousands of reviews. Deep Research: Using AI to get instant historical and architectural context on buildings to inform how I photograph them. On-Site Assistant: Using conversational AI to troubleshoot camera settings and recall necessary shot lists while keeping my hands on the gear. Post-Processing Efficiency: AI culling to remove blurry photos instantly, and faster AI-based retouching techniques in Photoshop alternatives. The Critique Roleplay: Using AI to critique final photos from specific client cultural or style perspectives before delivery. Tips for getting the most out of AI: Use the higher-end, "slow" thinking paid models. Instruct the AI to use Google Search for up-to-date gear and location info. Tell the AI about yourself and your gear in its permanent instructions. I am not talking to a person; I am using a tool. And it’s a tool that allows me to spend less time on the computer and more time behind the camera.

SIGMA V SONY: 15mm f/1.4 Lens comparison

Go to http://squarespace.com/Chelsea & save 10% off your first website or domain with code “Chelsea" Chelsea Mercado Northrup tests the Sigma 15mm F1.4 DC lens. It's is a compact, lightweight wide-angle lens for APS-C cameras and it's surprisingly versatile. At just 220g and $590, is it worth it? I tested it on the streets of New York, indoors, and on test charts to see how the image quality holds up. We're talking sharpness, bokeh, chromatic aberration, distortion, flaring, and how it stacks up against the Sony version that costs $500 more. Spoiler: it's really good.

My Nikon Z8 started glitching mid-shoot—and I still can’t explain it. *🎉 MY DISCOUNTS & SPECIAL OFFERS* • *Expert Setup Guides — 10% Off* My complete camera setup walkthroughs for Nikon, Sony, Hasselblad & Fuji GFX: https://geni.us/GuidesOZ10 • *Patreon UNCUT* (Photoshoots, BTS, Full Sets) - 30% off annual memberships: https://geni.us/UNCUT30 • *50% Off Adult Art Portrait Courses: https://geni.us/Art-OZsale* • 50% Off Wedding, Travel and Lighting Courses: https://geni.us/OZsale50 *Discounts for a limited time.* The Nikon Z8 has been one of my main workhorse cameras for both photography and video, so experiencing severe EVF glitches, freezes, and corrupted frames during a real‑world shoot was a shock. In this video I break down exactly what happened, what lenses and adapters were involved, and the strange behaviour I saw through both the EVF and rear LCD. If you’re a Nikon Z8 owner or you’ve run into similar camera errors, freezes, or firmware‑related issues, I’d love to hear your experience in the comments. This all happened right after returning from Japan, where we covered CP+, visited the Nikon Museum, and filmed with some incredibly rare Nikon equipment. After flying home unexpectedly due to a family emergency, I set up a simple portrait shoot in rural Australia — and that’s when the Z8 started glitching. From thermal‑vision‑style EVF patterns to repeated lockups and lost video files, this was one of the strangest technical problems I’ve ever had on a shoot. I’m sharing the full story here not to alarm anyone, but to document the behaviour and hopefully crowd‑source some insight from other Nikon shooters. Whether this was a sensor issue, EVF processing error, firmware bug, or something else entirely, I’m hoping the community can help diagnose it. If you’ve ever had your Z8 freeze, reset settings, corrupt images, or show strange EVF artifacts, let me know — your input could help a lot of people.

Photography Just Changed Forever | Here's Why

Go to http://squarespace.com/Tony & save 10% off your first website or domain with code “Tony" After 30 years as a photographer and over a million photos in my Lightroom catalog, I am seeing the biggest shift in the industry since the transition from film to digital. In 2026, the "professional" portrait look—flawless skin, creamy bokeh, perfect studio lighting, and tight telephoto compression—is officially cringe. Why? Because AI generators like Midjourney ruined it. People are so sick of seeing AI-generated "perfection" that anything looking remotely flawless feels fake, awkward, and like you're trying way too hard. Living in NYC, I see the trends hit the streets first. If you want to stay relevant, get booked, and actually connect with clients or your audience today, you need to put down the 200mm lens and unlearn your fancy editing skills. In this video, we're talking about why you need to embrace analog film, early-2000s digicams, wide-angle 24mm portraits, and why styling, fashion, and mood matter so much more than technical perfection.

“Dying in the camera roll” - That’s what I want to get better at this year.

Kirk edited my videos for seven years. When he left, it wasn't because something went wrong — it's because he outgrew the role. This is a clip from our first real conversation since the breakup. We sat down, no script, no agenda, just two friends finally talking about what happened and what comes next.

Why I parted ways with my editor - Kirk Lepiten ep. 2

My former editor and I go over why we chose to no longer work together. Reminiscing on past videos, our favourites, our 'hits' and why our relationship in this new creative space is different from how it used to be. Additionally we cover the new style of sharing on social media, 'yapp' content and how to be authentic in what you choose to share online.
