It’s gift-giving season again! While many of us will be excited for any potential gifts that will be received, the idea of tracking down gifts for some of our more difficult friends makes many dread holiday shopping. I can’t help you with most of your friends but, if you have a photographer in the bunch, I think I can make some recommendations that will make life easier. All the items below won’t be limited to a specific camera brand or shooting style, so you don’t have to worry about finding out specifics or learning all that much to pick up
There is no camera currently on the market that is more well-rounded than the Nikon D850. It offers everything you could possibly want and then some. Balancing outstanding resolution with more than enough speed and then tossing in UHD 4K video really does make this a versatile system and, perhaps, the best camera to be released in 2017. At home I like shooting food and, since I am dating someone who is studying to be a chef, there is always plenty
Since the Canon 5D MarkII (since supplanted by the Mark III and Mark IV) started shooting video and consumer camcorders started capturing 4K, the lines of differentiation between cameras, and for what purpose, have been blurred. What follows is my take on how to navigate your choices, and make the selection which will be the most appropriate for you
By now you have probably heard a lot about the Nikon D850 DSLR. This new camera has been lauded by Nikon fans (and critics) and you’ll get no argument from me. As a colleague phrased it, “Nikon gave us everything we asked for with this camera,” and certainly, it is blessed with Nikon’s best features and latest technologies, including a 45.7MP sensor, native ISO to 25600, 153-point autofocus, a tilting, touchscreen LCD, and 4K UHD video. We took
At last, a DSLR that excites me 100%. Seemingly with no compromises in sight, the Nikon D850 has recently burst onto the scene as the most anticipated DSLR release this year. And fittingly so. But, does the D850 live up to its hype? Has Nikon “done it again” with another D800-series camera? I had the opportunity to take it out for a few days in upper Manhattan to see what all the fuss is about.
As they say, a company is only as great as the people within it. The product experts at B&H exemplify this adage daily, in the personal attention they offer every customer interaction, as well as their depth of knowledge and passion for practical solutions.
“Many people don’t realize, it’s not just knowing the tech that’s important; the sales reps behind the counter get customer feedback about the items that serve people best,” explains B&H Sony Specialist Yisroel Ybgi. “So, their recommendations are not only based on what it says in a
Video is getting bigger and better every year, and I’m sure nearly everyone knows at least one aspiring filmmaker. I love filmmaking and photography, but the main problem I have with it is the amount of equipment one needs to get the job done. This can mean big, important pieces such as a camera or lights as well as tiny, essential accessories that make life a whole lot easier. If you are looking for something to gift your filmmaking friend or for some key components to upgrade your kit, check out the following.

Hot off the release of the new Nikon D850, B&H got a chance to give four of our photographers some time with the camera. With an incredible new 45.7MP sensor, massively improved auto-focus, 4k video, and even post-friendly features such as focus stacking, we see just what the D850 is capable of.
Are you reading this because you are wondering if the new Nikon D850 camera is better than the Nikon D810? Are you questioning whether the aging D800 that has been your high-resolution workhorse for years will give the new camera a run for its money? What brings you here? You pretty much want to know if the Nikon D850 is a spectacular photographic
Fashion photography is all about being in the right place at the right time with the right model featuring the right outfit in the right lighting. Whether it be on the street, on the runway, or in a studio, having the right lens might make the difference between getting the cover shot or filling your digital trashcan with unsightly images.
B&H Photo asked some top fashion photographers to share their favorite lenses with us and why they love them. Before I dive into some specifics, you will see that the common thread connecting all of

On today’s episode of the B&H Photography Podcast, we continue our exploration of photographic collaboration with photojournalists Ben Lowy and Marvi Lacar. In addition to sharing a vocation, they also share two children and a life together.
Photojournalism is a decidedly independent, at times dangerous, career, certainly not one known for a routine home life, but when domestic responsibilities and
Join David Flores as he tries out the Nikon D850 in the studio and outdoors.

Next, the D850’s touchscreen features are tested for shooting stills and video. Finally, the in-camera slow motion and 8k time lapse capabilities
Contradicting the adage that you can’t have your cake and eat it, too, Nikon has just released the high-resolution, speed-minded D850 DSLR. Succeeding the popular D800/E and D810 cameras, the D850 looks to hold onto its high-resolution, multimedia spot in the Nikon lineup, as well as add speed, autofocus, and video to a list of things it can do better than most.
Beginning with the heart of the camera, the D850 sports an all-new sensor that, more
As was discussed in the first part of this two-part article, my camera was producing an overexposed arc through the center of the image frame. After ruling out many possible causes by trying the camera with different lenses, settings, and in varying light, I reached the point where I needed to contact the experts at Photo Tech Repair Service to diagnose the problem and let me know if my camera was
