A Review Of Kodak Portra 800 Film
I always appreciate lenses and film stocks that offer an opinion in the way they render the world, and Kodak Portra 800 has a strong point of view indeed.

There's a fine line between shedding light on an issue and exploitation, but the intention is what matters. This may mean choosing to tell a story with several images instead of a single evocative frame, but audiences will appreciate a narrative with context and you'll gain their trust as a result.

The beauty of Kodak Portra 160 however, is in its restraint. If you want your color work to stand the test of time, this is undoubtedly the color negative film stock to use.

The Canon EF 85mm f/1.4L IS USM offers the best user experience of any Canon lens I've used to date which is the number one reason to own it. It prioritizes speed, sharpness, and performance in a sleek package that's easy to use without any fuss.

Consumers today always strive for the latest and greatest, but the Canon EOS 5D classic can now be had at a dirt cheap price, making it a tremendous value. I purchased mine recently for just over $200 USD. You're getting a professional grade camera for a fraction of what it used to cost.

The Canon EF 70-200mm f/4L IS II USM is clearly a no brainer. If you're travelling, bring a 35mm 1.4 along with this lens and you're set for the whole trip. If shooting in daylight, it's difficult to justify the f2.8 version which costs several hundred dollars more and is substantially heavier.

The silver reflective umbrella is almost always overlooked by photographers, and when it is used it's usually only to light up a background. Most believe the beauty dish is superior but I respectfully disagree. No, the silver reflective umbrella when used appropriately is the ultimate beauty light.

It occurs to me now that the times in life that I've experienced the most growth and achievement were born out of necessity, a survival instinct to get out of the life I was dissatisfied with. Do you hate the situation that you currently find yourself in? I say lean into it.

My two favorite focal lengths have always been 35mm and 50mm, and having both at my disposal opens up the creative possibilities even more on an already useful camera. This combination of lenses will work well for travel photography, and I plan to use them together for future projects.

In an era where everyone on the internet was saying that there's no money to be made in stock photography, I personally knew several photographers who were consistently making over $10,000 USD per month, and I was determined to be one of them. I just needed to focus on it full time, or so I thought.

While there are many benefits to using a camera no larger than a modern mobile phone, the X100V doesn't sound the professional photographer alarm to people around you. It has an innocent appearance that isn't intimidating at all, which consequently disarms human subjects.
