Fujifilm's X Half digital camera wasn't designed to replace your main camera, though you'd be forgiven for assuming it was with its ludicrous $850 price. However, the company recently reduced the MSRP to $649.99, and is now knocking an additional $100 off through June 28th. That means you can grab the X Half in its base configuration for around $549 at Amazon, B&H Photo, and Best Buy. Adorama is also discounting it to the same price and throwing in a free accessory pack, which includes a 64GB SanDisk SD card and a camera case.
Kanlioglu says he admires the fishers and their craft, adding, It's understandable that people who have been born into this culture and immersed in water since childhood have such developed abilities, but it's miraculous for foreigners like me to witness it.
I thought leaving my cameras behind would make the job harder. It ended up being a liberation. Stripping away the technical barriers let me be fully present with my friends and the raw beauty of this place
Although she engaged with and celebrated Latinx communities, Rivera never wanted her work to be confined to identity politics. In fact, much of her output was highly experimental. Double Exposures, her first career survey, reassesses Rivera's practice, situating the artist within the broader discourse of post-war photography while foregrounding both her political activism and technical skill.

Everything is autobiographical here, as Alexander is "committed to bringing as many lights outside the studio as possible" - recreating studio aesthetics to "complex-ify" his lighting, the simple flash will no longer suffice. Although it's simple, Alexander forewarns "we're no longer within simple times." He's sworn to "entering the world of the hat", (a reference to Stephen Sondheim's song Finishing The Hat, a classic tune all about the reverence of everyday objects) and in the process, Alexander is tailoring each subject to its setting, finding each item or person's most interesting light.
I had a dream about a half woman-half animal, standing alone in the middle of a field, with trees surrounding her. I was working on a series of images, called Madre, about the depiction of womanhood. The media in Bolivia always present women in a traditionally feminine way. It is rare to see a woman who displays more masculine attributes and her not be immediately labelled as a lesbian there is no nuance.
Instead of pushing its telephoto hardware to further extremes, Vivo has mostly left it be. The company has focused its efforts on a significantly improved 35mm main camera, unique among the competition for its narrow, natural focal length. Combined with the best ultrawide camera in any phone and new pro-level video features, the result is a camera system that feels equally balanced between all three rear lenses. It's a less flashy approach, but the total package is more versatile and useful than its rivals and my favorite to use so far.
You currently have two options if you want to apply effects and filters to your photos: use an app that will inevitably harvest your data for training their AI model (we're watching you, Instagram), or actually edit your photos manually, which requires time, software subscriptions, and the patience of a saint. Reddit user sharkbiscuit101 unlocked a third option, and it involves a Raspberry Pi 4, a rotary encoder, a gamepad, and a frankly unreasonable amount of ingenuity. The build produces glitch photography on the pixel level, in real time, through a custom script running entirely offline on hardware you can source yourself. No cloud upload, no terms of service, and crucially, no algorithm deciding what your creative output should look like.
Fujifilm's $175 Instax Wide 400 builds on the familiar instant photography experience and expands it with a wider format. As someone who appreciates simple, easy-to-use instant cameras and often shoots with an Instax Square, I was interested in trying a model that offers larger prints and support for landscape photography.
He waited on the far side of the road for half an hour for a taxi to pass by. I wanted it to appear centrally in the frame so that it would sit in balance with the massive building; I knew it would only work in the exact right position. Because the background is visually busy and detailed, the taxi needed to feel deliberate and precise.
At the age of 17, Simon Burstall documented the burgeoning underground rave scene of 1990s Sydney. Armed with borrowed school cameras and stealing away from home in the early hours of the morning in the family car, Simon found community and a career that would change him forever.
Known for his stunning photos of wildlife and landscapes, as well as co-founding SeaLegacy alongside fellow conservationist and photographer Cristina Mittermeier, Paul Nicklen has traveled the globe to not only highlight our planet's phenomenal biodiversity but also to shed light on its increasing vulnerabilities due to the ongoing climate crisis.
The most spark-producing thing for me right now is this magnetism between my girlfriend Lulu and me, and our conversation around the images we're making. It's extremely collaborative - she takes pictures of me too. There is no way these pictures exist without the two of us together - on the bed or in her friend's backyard with this kid's soccer net.
Maja Malou Lyse's project 'Bombshell, Boom' revolves around the Danish tabloid Ekstra Bladet's infamous 'Page-9 Girl' column, which has faced criticism for publishing images of underage girls. In a bold response, she cropped women's eyes from a current Page-9 Girl and displayed them on a monumental LED billboard, reversing the historical gaze that objectified the models.
Petra Collins occupies a rare position - she is a photographer who has become, in her own right, a public figure. Few other contemporary image-makers shoot as many magazine covers as they star on them.
Anna, a participant in the May Dip, expressed her distress after discovering a photo of herself in swimwear published online without her consent, stating, 'I clicked on it and my heart sank. I'm quite insecure about my appearance. I was thinking: how do I get rid of this? How do I make sure no one else sees this?'
