2014 When it comes to lenses, photographers tend to have endless discussions. How sharp is sharp? Is an L-Lens so much better, than a much less expensive one from brand S or T.

[EN] Jan, 10th, 2018 Meanwhile the mainboard and the CPU in my actual desktop PC are 6 years old. Time to think about an upgrade, the more so as the AMD APU (A6-3650) does not support high resolution monitors and with every new release of Lightroom or Photoshop everything becomes slower. And it s…

In Zeiten von Instagram, iPhone, Selfies und Selfiesticks gerät ernsthafte Fotografie immer mehr ins Abseits. Hier und auch auf anderen Plattformen lese ich immer wieder Beiträge, die sich kritisch mit der dieser Entwicklung auseinander setzen. Daher möchte ich hier die Laudatio anlässlich der Verni…

What I find somewhat irritating - not only here, but on all similar platforms - are beautiful and well composed photos which just come along with the file name assigned by the camera such as IMG_4711 and nothing else. I see a breathtaking landscape or seascape, a cityscape, a plane or ship or whatev…

Jan. 19th, 2016 By the time I retired a couple of years ago I had accumulated over 50 years of photography some 6.000 slides and an unknown number of negative films. All these treasures were boxed up in our basement and we hadn't looked at it for years. And then I dicovered Panoramio, a photo sharin…
