<p>Hello,<br> Just wanted to ask if there was anything wrong with video recording with the Canon 5D and moving the tripod around, jerking the camera. Does that damage the lens? Or does it damage the lens more so than recording when the Canon 5D is still and then when switching positions, turn it off then turn it back on when stabilized?</p> <p> </p>

<p>Hello Photo.net Community,<br />Just wanted to get some insights on a model friend of mine helping out her photographer friend who shot her and she didn't charge him and he didn't charge her type of deal.<br /> <br />She signed for a modeling agency and now the photographer decided that she's not allowed to use the images for the agency unless the agency pays. It's my understanding that when nothing was signed on paper everything is open for debate. My other question is when a model renders her service (in this case 6 hours or so) for free to a photographer, she's entitled to the copies of the images if that was the verbal (and even written agreement.)<br /> <br />The problem arises is when the agency still decides to post the image would cause the photographers in the modeling community to accuse the agency of stealing the images. Who's in the right, ethically and legally here? The model giving out her images assuming she owned them? Or the photographer's right of being compensated? <br /> My friend now has to find another photographer to do her test shoot and most of them cost money. <br /> Also, she's having a problem with this photographer as she's now afraid to block him (the photographer's post was causing her unrest) off Facebook because the photographer threatened on his public Facebook status that if any of his models screw with him, he will post their awkward poses and nude photographers. What defense does a model have to the above when she's extorted like that? I've seen models reputations ruined before the law can come into place.<br /> Let me know your thoughts.</p>

<p>Hey guys,<br> I have a lighting question using reflectors as well as some special effects for the hair.<br> Would you get a Boom Arm or a Tripod to hold your reflector? I know that having a person holding the reflector is best, but if you're going solo when shooting, what is the best solution? <br /><br />Also, what is the best way to accomplish a hair blowing effect? Just a regular fan? Are there fans that pros use that makes the hair blow?<br /><br />Thanks!<br> <br /><br /></p>

<p>That's not 6 days ago. That was on April 16, more than a month ago. Secondly, that's not fetish content. I was asking about a Russian photographer. Please send me a message and please do not derail the this topic. This could've been settled via message.</p>

<p>What are some of your favorite work pieces of Leni Riefenstahl?</p>

<p>I appeal to you that this is not for controversy but asking for a resolution of this conflict. I didn't post anything 6 days ago or post about fetish. I'm not talking about colored people either, I'm giving a rhetorical example. I'll post my recent work when I get a release from the images from the models. Until then, I'm posting here.</p>

<p>Wow this is powerful!<br> "To point out a belief or political stance merely to take away from, or destroy, someone's business? No, I do not think that is right."<br> I agree to this. Especially if the business is a livelihood!<br /><br />Thanks for the headsup. Let me know if you had any suggestion on how to better portray this topic.<br> Point being is other people trying to take away from & destroy someone's business.<br /><br />What is the counter to these types of people?</p>

<p>Dear Fellow Photographers,<br /> I'm coming across a lot of photographers bashing other photographers work. Granted we are here on a united cause of producing images so I don't see why we should be bashing or diving each other.<br /> There are instances where political differences (Trump vs Bernie / Hilary) for example where you have photographers of a certain political background mob other photographers from another political background. Or at least subconsciously dislike another person and use any ammunition they can foster to spread hate, spread dislike towards a certain person. Not all of us are clean of this endeavor either but after seeing some of these dramas I think it's wise to stop judging the photographer's backgrounds and just simply viewing their art as is.<br /> I wanted to get everyone's opinions on how to actually resolve a conflict or what ticks you guys about what other photographers are doing.<br /> Sales people are very good at this tactic of creating a problem that was never there to begin with. But upon creating that problem, it causes fear & anxiety to their target and somehow the victim will be inclined to buy or follow the suggestion. The problem gets created when someone creates it. <br /> A rhetorical scenario is as follows:<br /> If a photographer (Adam) were to create an album series consisting of colored people (for example Hispanics) and market that album as purely as that theme and there was no problem to the Hispanic people consenting first in appearing in these albums.<br /> Is it ethical that an outsider photographers (Jack) who may perceive Adam as a competition & driving away business/sales from them (Jack) and out of jealousy convince the Hispanic people inside this album to back off the project because of the photographer's political background? How is it Jack's business to do this? Is this border lining invasion of privacy or harassment? What proof is needed to charge when the people inside the album will not testify and they're convinced that Jack is correct and that Adam is a bad influence? <br /> To further define, if for example the photographer's (Adam) background is a Republican and is voting Trump, and then you have other photographer's like Jack pointing that fact and saying lies that "this photographer wants your family & Hispanics to be deported, don't support his work and have your images taken off"when clearly that's not his beliefs. Obviously the people involved in the album aren't politically savvy or knowledgeable but will be susceptible to the suggestion from Jack and end up retracting their work. What's more is that possibly Jack and his friend Tom, Jerry and Greg also are in a united cause of ensuring that Adam's work doesn't get published by stalking Adam's social media pages and work.<br /> <br /> Further, Jack will also blackmail the people's images inside the work and get them to disassociate from Adam or else they will be perceived as a "Mexican hater" in the community. For the unpolitical savvy, the people appearing inside this album will believe.<br /> It seems that Jack, Tom, Jerry and Greg are in a vendetta not against Adam but against Trump. Because they hate Trump so much, they take it out of Jack it seems.<br /><br />We can also flip the cause where it's Republicans going against Democrats. The fight is endless.<br /> How does one resolve a conflict like this? Has anyone experienced anything similar? How does one deal with these types of people?<br /><br />Is it normal for a person like Adam to lose business because other photographers have insights on his political backgrounds and points out his support towards a party? On one instance, it can't be defamation because the fact is true. On the second instance it's pretty much slander. As in the original client of Adam wouldn't have not known his political background until someone pointed it out and then the client decided to make a decision then and just stopped looking at the work.<br> It seems that Jack, Greg, Tom and Jerry are on a vendetta and are spending way too much time focusing and looking at Adam's work rather than producing images. There's really no resolution it seems. <br /><br />On another instance, if one person has wronged another person a settlement can occur such as repairing the damage. In political circumstances, Greg, Jack, Tom and Jerry's settlement is having Adam out of business.<br> <br /> Thoughts, comments and feedback much appreciated.</p> <p> </p>

<p>Was browsing for some wallpapers and came across a great photographer! First few photos were amazing. I noticed a disturbed feeling in my gut. Perhaps I'm American and this guy is Russian. But I'm going to clear my thoughts and see what everyone thinks here instead, but before you read my comments look at the photos first then read my comments below. <br> NSFW<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/142387339079/fedorshmidtcom<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/141127716304/fedorshmidtcom<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/140190942553/fedorshmidtcom<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/139663670289/fedorshmidtcom<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/132270477867/fedorshmidtcom<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/125753298834/fedorshmidtcom<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/122664534209/fishing<br> @ (Look at 60 seconds) = https://vimeo.com/85395440<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/137839489004/fedorshmidtcom<br> http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/121100123173/fedorshmidtxxx<br> <br />SERIOUSLY? http://fedorshmidt.tumblr.com/post/121183355415/fedorshmidtxxx<br> Am I missing something here? Is this guy like some jock or alpha male that he can get away with this? Is this a cultural thing in Russia? Or is he in some sort of industry that's not the norm here in the USA? Would he be successful and booked by the top industries here in the USA if he moved here? <br /><br />That being said, let me know your guy's thoughts.</p>
