ABC doco series about photographers

Post by CLP »

saw a doco on iview last night "Close Up: Photographers at work: Portraits" that was pretty interesting. Was interesting the range of cameras that were used.

Not sure if this is stand alone or part of a series though

Thanks for that. I like the two old ones; Albert and Sylvia. They made the most sense to me.

It always comes back to the same thing for me though; it doesn't matter what camera you use, it's the concept that counts.

I also notice that not one of those people is using the now-obligatory razor-thin depth of field. It shows how little notice they take of the internet. ;)

That's not exactly razor thin depth of field...:D

Our cameras do the same thing; yes. We just don't over-use it.
