Ziv Koren – More Than 1000 Words

Matt Brandon | 02/11

A look at the work of photojournalist Ziv Koren and the technology they used to make More Than 1000 Words.

Ziv Koren is an Israeli photojournalist that lives in the mist of conflict on a daily basis. I have always had something of a fascination with war photography. For thirteen years I lived in Kashmir, often a war zone. But being married and with a young daughter, I choose not to put myself in harms way if possible. I choose a different type of photography, but I have the utmost respect for photographers like James Nachtwey, Robert Capa, Ziv Koren and others.

Ziv brings amazing imagery to his coverage of the Middle East conflict. If you have any interest in this kind of photography at all, you will find this short video moving. Be sure to check out his website and book. The videos below are a few years old, but none the less fascinating. The first video, More Than 1000 Words is of Ziv at work as things unfold. The next video is a really interesting look at how it was made and the technology that was developed to get both video for the film and, quite frankly, stay out of his way! Be sure to view both.

Photography: What’s real, what’s not and does it matter?

Matt Brandon | 05/08- 07:38 PM

Is there such a thing as integrity in a photograph?

I got some flack on Facebook about a past post on my blog . I received a comment from a reader or two stating they felt that what they saw in the produced images was not real. Meaning, after running through my workflow in Lightroom the images no longer represented reality. I have gotten this kind of feedback many times in the past. I think people are rather shocked at seeing a photo “undressed”. It’s a bit like seeing a high-fashion model on the streets without any makeup, it can be scary.

Phottix’ New Odin Off-Camera E-TTL Wireless Trigger

Matt Brandon | 10/16- 05:01 PM

Off-Camera Flash Made Easy By Phottix

Let me set the record straight right here; I am not a strobist. Ninety five percent of the time I shoot with available light, the other five percent I shoot with my flash set to rear curtain sync (It’s fun. You should try it!) I really don’t like the ugly flat light that on-camera flashes give a subject. Off-camera lighting is wonderful, but until recently with a Canon you only got E-TTL metering by using the short irritating OC-E3 cable.
