Timothy Armes has just released a new version of his wonderful LR2/Mogrify export plugin. I did a writeup on using LR2/Mogrify to do advanced watermarking in Lightroom some time ago, so I am really excited …

Have you ever shot with a second camera or used a second shooter and then when you imported the images into Lightroom only to find out that the time on the different cameras was way …

Every once in a while a shoot comes up with specific requirements and your job is to figure out how to get the shot that they want. Today I needed to shoot some Digium interface cards for 888VoipStore.com. The challenge was that I wanted to get a vertical shot with a reflection underneath.

Basically I do a pretty simple import process using a preset I created to apply the Camera Standard Camera Calibration setting to all images. This gives me a good starting point for working with my images. In this video I show how to create the Camera Standard preset and then apply it to images during import.

If you have been a fan of Camera Dojo for a while you will have seen mentions of Breeze Systems’ DSLR Remote Pro. DSLR Remote Pro at its basics is a tool for doing tethered shooting, so what right? The Canon EOS Utility can do that, so why would we want to spend close to $100 for software that comes free with your camera? Let’s take a fresh look at what all DSLR Remote Pro can do for you.

In this video Kerry walks through the process of doing a typical product shoot. This tutorial uses the Westcott Spiderlite TD-5 constant lights.

Over the past few weeks Kerry has upgraded from a 30D to a 50D and David upgraded from a 40D to a 5D Mk II. In this episode the guys discuss the new cameras and some of the features that they are really digging about the new gear.
