Verdi (a German trade union) has developed an online fee calculator for “creative professionals”. This is also accessible to non-members and is intended to give a rough overview of what a reasonable calculation looks like. The most important thing is the “categorisation”. There are four levels: EG5, EG9b, EG11 and EG13. You […]
I have once again received a link to an article that deals with AI. Apparently, VMWare (an American company for cloud computing software) has delivered a study according to which the creation of instructions for the AI, the so-called “prompt”, is done much more efficiently by the AI itself. This is how […]
This is not a premature April Fool’s joke, even if it reads like one. Swarowski has brought a pair of binoculars onto the market that has a bird detection function. Not as we know it from cameras – it puts a frame around the bird and focuses on it. Nope – the […]
… then you’ll find out the absolute top tip that you’ve never heard of and that we promised you in the video description. No, this is not clickbait. And while you’re at it, subscribe and thumbs and bell and be sure to comment. I’m sick of hearing and seeing it. I get […]
Der Stammtisch diesmal nach Ostern. Weil der letzte Freitag im Monat passenderweise der Karfreitag ist und wir beschlossen haben, den Stammtisch dann halt wieder auf den ersten Freitag im Monat zu legen. Fastenzeit ist rum, und wir hoffen, dass sich bis dahin auch wieder ein paar neue Dinge ergeben haben – wir […]
Vogue is a household name? That’s right, it’s that magazine for starving models, designer clothes, luxury cosmetics and so on. They also do greenwashing so that the clientele on the yacht in St Tropez can have their blood diamonds polished with a clear conscience. But because they want to be all woke, […]

I read a question in a forum: “I want to film a wedding with a fixed camera on a tripod. I have an OM-1, 60mm, 7-14 and 40-150 at my disposal. What should I take?” The answers are, as usual in forums, broadly diversified from “leave it” to “14mm” to “40-150”. What […]
I was doing some research in Krems last week and was made aware of an initiative that I had never heard of before, although it actually falls right into “my thing”. The Topothek. It’s all about collecting visual and audio documents on specific locations from the last 150 years. And then, of […]
Under a comment it said again: “And then there is a pole on the left in the picture and it has to be cropped away or something and you are very quickly well below 40% of the original megapixels and below 200dpi. “ If, when creating a photo book in A4 landscape […]
…. Someone wants it, Professionals rent camera equipment if they can only do a job with it. That’s why there are companies that do just that: Rent out equipment. Lensrentals is a big player in the industry. At the end of the year, they always have statistics on what they have lent […]
