• Update: Taylor Swift Photo Contract: Break Our Rules, and We Can Break Your Gear
• Response: TAYLOR SWIFT RESPONDS TO PHOTOGRAPHER’S OPEN LETTER
• Basically Taylor Swift called out Apple’s new streaming service for not paying artists during the 3 month trial period, which they caved. Photographers called out Taylor Swift for unfair contracts in which they don’t get paid to shoot her concerts unless the photo is published, retain all rights, and will break your memory cards if you don’t comply. So far Taylor Swift’s management company responded back trying to backtrack while saying that's the norm.
• http://petapixel.com/assets/uploads/2015/06/taylorswift1989photographercontract.jpg
• Photographer only gets paid if they put the photos in the news or online. Some said they only get paid every other concert. They only get one shot at getting it in a paper.

Are there reasons why I would choose one versus the other? I feel like portrait orientation makes it easier to get more of the person's body while landscape is more for head shots but I'm sure it's much more complicated than that..Scott - one tip for environmental portraits is look for strong horizontal or vertical lines in the scene and match your frame with what is provided in front of your cameraEFL-Craig LanceI was wondering for an up-coming Mish Mash episode if you could talk about ETTR (Expose To The Right)? I was blown away about how a camera's sensor has such a high dynamic range on the right (light) side of the histogram as opposed to the left (dark). If you intentionally overexpose a shot in-camera, then compensate by correcting the exposure in Lr, you'll get an image with better dynamic range.While there are other ways to go about it there is actually a nice DIY you can do.Go to a flower shop and buy a couple of the brightest red cut flowers available. I.E. rose, dahlia, zinna, carnation, amaryllis, etc. Since your using ETTR and red is the most energetic spectrum its a lso the first to get blown out in the histogram. With the camera on a tripod try to fill the frame with the flower the best you can in normal indoor light. Take a photo at normal exposure then go to review and look at the colors in the histogram. At this point keep your aperture and ISO the same, lower the shutter speed to raise the exposure slightly and try again. Repeat until you get the highlight warning in the review screen, the blinkies. Now take the photos to lightroom and expose them correctly. For flowers with more curves such as a rose and dahlia you'll see a lot more shadow detail on the ETTR shots vs the center metered photos. In terms of the demonstration taking the bracket you should be able to flip through the photos and see very slight differences as you get closer to the right.Link to red flowerReader Questions:BikeBerrycomopinion on GH4?

The Fuji 18-55mm f/2.8-4 was a contributing factor for me purchasing the Fuji X-E2 over competitors.

Question of the week: for the next year you can ONLY shoot at two focal lengths - what would you choose? Week in review AKA in case you missed it-Correction from prior week:Lightroom should be fine on 4GB of ram so even finer on 8GB. Technically with 8GB you can run lightroom and tell it to edit in photoshop while keeping both runningDavid S - ..after the 'fusion' discussion (extracting photos from an 8K stream), you talked about algorithms that can discern beautiful photographs ... so it appears by the time 8K arrives, we'll have software to find the best frames.Ancaster RFD - While I may check a light meter reading, the EV movement in my viewfinder, and histogram, I have also used the wifi in my 6D to preview the first few images on my iPad. It will even be nicer when the larger iPad pro comes out. It's like having a small monitor for off location shoots not much unlike when photogs conduct classes and have a direct feed to a large monitor after every shot, except it's easily mobile. Another tool I enjoy in the field.Dennis Ogden- A Samsung Nx1000 allowed wifi transfers to computer android as does the NX2000 which as a touch screen 20 mpix . If you really need to down load via wifi I can understand that,.... you will have your reasons... but for now NX1000 and nx2000 are going so cheaply ( under 60 $ on evil bay)why not transfer your card to one of those and drain its battery. This way it cheaper than some of those wifi cards and is proven tech . Just an idea . Pop the samsung body back into your bag or pocket while it does its stuff put a new card in the user camera and your good to go again.News:http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2015/03/camera-raw-8-8-now-available.html5Ds and 5Dr preorders start MONDAY - http://bhpho.to/1MVknUGNew 5D Mark IV Rumors - 4k. . .http://photorec.tv/2015/03/canon-5d-mark-iv-rumors/D7200 Now Shipping: http://bhpho.to/1FNuTwVhttp://www.washingtonpost.com/news/comic-riffs/wp/2015/03/16/anna-atkins-google-celebrates-pioneering-photographic-author-with-blue-birthday-doodle/NAB COMING AND before that Sony Full frame rumorshttp://www.sonyalpharumors.com/sr5-new-full-frame-sony-cameras-coming-soon/To compound the decision in the full frame market.
