    why would she take such a bootleg approach to fixing her eyepiece around the viewfinder?
    correct me if i’m wrong (I may be!) but it def. looks like duct tape to me…

    it makes it look bad?
    i understand it must get the job done, but i find it a little ironic that someone who takes pictures of beautiful people would take such an un-ellegant approach for a repair/securing of the eyepiece.

    well I suppose I’m personally pretty particular about the appearance of my equipment, I like to keep things streamlined. I like how neat and tidy her flash and bracket setup is… there doesn’t seem to be any simple flash brackets for cameras without a grip.

    Anyhow, the duct tape works. Looks kind of dumb but so what? Nobody takes pictures of her camera, right?

    My 8 GB Ducati sandisk can keep up with my D300 at 8 FPS for 32 frames, and at 6 fps for 38 frames till it slows down. Thats at 12 MP highest quality jpeg, being about 5 MB each file. I hope that helps, even though its one year later :P

    why do fashion/red carpet photographer likes to use a bracket for their flash?… why dont just mount it on the camera?

    Bwahahaha!
    For someone so concerned with the superficial stuff, I would have thought you wouldn’t do something as inelegant as misspelling inelegant.
    “un-ellegant” WOW! ever hear of spell check?
    You even used a hyphen to break up one word after spelling it wrong…try some duct tape next time!

    1) thank you grammar police!
    2) @mogwix, I guess you’re right, maybe it’s just my personal little bit of OCD to have everything spick-and-span (there’s your glorius hyphens buddy) :)

    because when you use an off camera flash it will give you a more dramatic look,as opposed to straight flash that gives a very flatt and harsch light

    Getty Images photographers are awesome! Harry How, Katy Winn, and Frazer Harrison are the only ones I’ve seen on YouTube and they are all great!
