Video shows camerawoman tripping refugee who is carrying a child and running from police

The TV channel has said that it has fired the reporter.

This camerawoman was fired for her actions. But I think she needs a harsher punishment. There is no reason for this inhumane act.

Made my first GIF. Pretty proud of it. Strapped a GoPro to the roof of my car and recorded a drive through my city at night. I masked out the hood so it is the only thing that changes during the loop. I had fun making it and plan on making more.

In an unexpected twist, Instagram has announced it's now bringing official support for landscape and portrait photos and video. The square format has long been a staple for the Facebook-owned social network, but with almost…

This is great news. You have no idea how annoying it was to take my images and convert them to squared images in another app before uploading them to Instagram. If i did’t, they will be cut off at the edges to fit in the square. Now Instagram allows you to upload the entire image without being cropped. Hallelujah.

Interview: Michael Kamber on Photojournalism Ethics and the Altering of Images

Michael Kamber is a photojournalist who has been working around the world since 1986; he has traveled to Iraq, Afghanistan, Liberia, the Sudan, Haiti, Isra

This is a real debate. There is a lot of photographs that are manipulated with the use of photoshop these days. But I don not think it should be in editorial photography. It is like altering the truth.

8 Pro Photographers Share the Best Advice They Ever Got

Seven top-notch photographers and one amazing videographer share the most important piece of advice they ever received.

Advice is always good to have. Sometimes you get it, other times you read about it. Here are some advice these great photographers got.

[my-digital-memories]

Regardless of “niche,” the one thing every working photographer needs is a portfolio. Not just any thrown-together collection of images will cut it, either. A strong, concise, and impressive showcase of your talent is crucial to developing your business. If your website is your storefront, then your portfolio is your biggest and most effective sales tool. It emphasizes who you are, it shows off what you’re capable of, and it tells new customers exactly what you can do for them. Without a portfolio, you’ll be dead in the water.

Always good to have a portfolio at hand digitally. In my opinion, it is always best to have nice big prints, but its also good to have one you carry in digital form to pull it out when you need to. Here are some great options to make your digital one with.

B & H Photo isn’t a bookstore, but we carry more than 500 titles of photography books and tutorials. If you are like me, photo books can be an endless source of information to help you learn the technical ins-and-outs of the art, and can be a well of inspiration to help you develop your craft and encourage you to try new techniques, travel to new locations, and experiment with your gear. Here is a hand-selected list from our resident photography experts’ reading lists:

Always good to have books on photography or photographers. I keep some around to read or look through to get inspiration from if I’m stuck on how to pursue a project.

Canon's multi-purpose ME20F-SH camera reaches ISO 4 million

Canon has introduced its ME20F-SH multi-purpose camera - a black cube with an EF mount and the ability to capture video in near-darkness. With the ability to capture Full HD color video in light levels as low as 0.0005 lux and a top ISO of over 4 million, the ME20F-SH is well suited for surveillance and security as well as wildlife applications.

ISO 4 MILLION!!!! That is crazy. This camera can basically see in the dark. This is going to change how some filming is captured, especially in wildlife study.
