NEW MANAGER AT WARDOUR STREET We are delighted to announce that Tim Stavrinou is the new manager of our Wardour Street store. Tim was previously working at our Drummond Street store and has a wealth of photography experience, recalling how his interest in photography began: “As a youngster I was always surrounded by cameras. My Father used to run his own camera shop and gave me my first camera, a Nikon FG which I loved and would spend every weekend shooting during the day and developing the films in the evening. The bathroom transformed magically into a darkroom (much to Mum's despair) and I would happily spend hours surrounded by smelly chemicals and red lights.” Tim believes that customer service is the most important aspect to his store’s success, commenting that “We know our equipment inside out so it feels only right to impart that knowledge in the friendliest and most helpful way we can. After 25 years in the trade I still feel like a kid in a sweet shop, surrounded by all these lovely cameras”. Tim looks forward to meeting new and existing customers at the store and invites you to pop along and have a chat; he even promises if you’re still talking after an hour he’ll make you a cuppa!

TANDEM EDUCATION

Now Calumet can help you qualify to HNC/HND level

COURSE A

Introduction to professional digital photography Course code TE4A020512 Introduction to professional photo techniques, post production skills and the relationship of the history of photography to the profession today. Students will explore the equipment and practical photographic and postproduction skills used in today’s photo imaging industry while comparing and relating them to the development of photography.

COURSE B

Studio and management skills Course code TE4B02C1012 In what is believed to be a first for the industry Calumet is linking with Tandem Education – the private provider of vocational higher education qualifications - to offer photographers a unique opportunity to attain HNC/HND in photography qualifications.

Photoshop. Students will be studying to attain a Level 4/5 higher education qualification.

The new highly flexible ‘Photo-College’ courses will launch at our flagship Drummond Street, Euston store in September.

The courses – which will have no more than 12 students on each one – is aimed at both undergraduate and mature students who may have no formal qualification in photography.

Sian Hamer, Calumet’s marketing executive told Focus: “Education has always been a priority for us. This is evident in our ongoing seminar/workshop programmes and our commitment to enable customers through comprehensive product knowledge before they buy or rent from us. But now we are taking things to a new level. This is a giant leap forward to help our photographer customers gain internationally accepted vocational qualifications within a brand new and highly flexible framework. Under the pioneering scheme students on the courses will have access to state of the art Calumet rental equipment as required, including usage of latest high-tech computers with high-end monitors. A spokesman from Tandem Education explained: “The idea is simple. Anyone who wishes to gain a serious vocational qualification in photography can sign up to one of our courses. These are not training sessions. This will not be like attending a one day seminar on

This is about serious education with an internationally recognised HNC/HND qualification at the end of it – a qualification recognised not just by employers but also by universities.”

During delivery of this course with the support of industry specialists, students will acquire and the necessary photographic, digital and business skills to work in and run a professional photographic studio. This will also include the development of the appropriate skills and knowledge to run and work in a studio environment including the necessary business elements.

COURSE C

Added the spokesman: “Our courses will be hands-on – not just working at the Calumet location but also with professional photographers who have premises around London.

Professional photographic specialism

It means that people do not have to commit to five days a week of university time but instead attend onsite for a day a week for ten weeks, or twenty weeks according to their commitments. They can study in segments of 60 credits – a full HNC is 120 credits. It means that nobody has to give up work to gain a real and internationally valid qualification. This course will also suit those who may already have degrees in other disciplines, like accountancy – but who are looking to switch to a new career in the creativity sector.”

During this course industry specialists will augment our higher education lecturers to deliver content on a number of specialist areas of professional digital photography such as advertising, photojournalism & location photography, these may change to react to current industry requirements. There is also a section on managing a creative business that will be directly linked to this specialism to support both the employability and the entrepreneurship of starting in the industry.

The cost: 120 credit course (full HNC) is £3,700 inc VAT and registration. A 60 credit course (half an HNC) costs £1,850 inc VAT and registration. Our courses are approved and validated by Edexcel.

CANON ADVERTORIAL

John Sibley Sports photographer with Action Images For 21 years, John Sibley has been using Canon cameras to photograph ‘the beautiful game’. Now he’s shooting the 2012 summer of sport using the new EOS-1D X – and he’s loving every moment. To the die-hard sports fan, John Sibley must sound like the luckiest man alive. A sports photographer specialising in shooting football, you’ll find him on the touchline at some of the most famous football stadiums in the world, covering tournaments like the European Championships, The World Cup and The Champion’s League, not to mention the Premiership and FA Cup closer to home. “I just fell into professional photography,” John says modestly. “I was studying industrial design at college, but never really got on with it very well. I was always into photography as an amateur, and started to shoot a few jobs for the local papers to keep me in money while I was studying. Nothing too exciting: mayors presenting big cardboard cheques to charities, that sort of thing. But when the time came to find a job, I knew it was in photography that I should be looking.” John began as a junior photographer at Action Images

when he was 21, a position that he says was mostly about “answering the phone, developing film and making prints”, but on a Saturday he was let out to shoot pictures of his own, which is where his love of sports photography began, and blossomed. Today John is still with Action Images, now as their chief photographer, having risen through the ranks. Over the years he has seen a lot of changes, both in the football and in the tools of the trade used to photograph it. “Before digital photography came along we would shoot between five and 10 rolls of 36-exposure film each game. That’s up to 360 shots, and I can tell you that we shoot an awful lot more than that these days!

find a brace of the latest EOS-1D X bodies, an EOS 1D Mark IV and an EOS 5D Mark II. “My mains lenses are an EF 400mm f/2.8L IS USM to get me near to the action and an EF 70-200mm f/2. L IS USM telezoom for goalmouth shots,” he says. “I’m also partial to the EF 135mm f/2.0L, which is a beautiful lens – it gives me fantastic bokeh, which is something that we photographers do get obsessed with! John’s advice to the budding sports photographer: faces provide human interest while timing the shot can help to tell the story of what is going on.

“The media interest around football has grown considerably in that time too. There are more TV crews, journalists and photographers at each game than ever before, and the pressure is on to get pictures back to the office as quickly as possible. That’s what has driven a lot of the technological change in cameras, which are now like computers with a lens on the front.” John has always shot with Canon SLRs. In his kit bag you’ll

Shot with a 24mm lens, this atmospheric image could have been shot just as well from the stands as from the touchline. “The EOS-1D X is really a big step up in the EOS 1D line. Everything about the camera feels faster and more responsive, and it is so nice to be back shooting full-frame again. I think those of us who have shot film in the past really appreciate what full-frame photography can do. I’ve got proper wide-angle lenses again and the blurred backgrounds seem to make the subject ‘pop’ off them. Image quality really is quite extraordinary. “I find myself reaching for the 1.4x converter a little more than I used to with previous EOS 1D cameras, which had a 1.3x crop factor, but I’d rather have it this way around and enjoy full-frame again. I might have a look at a 500mm or 600mm lens in the future too.” The advent of new photographic technology has opened up creative possibilities that were simply not possible beforehand. One such technique, used by many sports photographers, including John, is remote camera triggering: “I often position a camera behind the goalmouth and trigger it using the camera I am photographing the goal with from the front. When I take a picture, the remote camera fires too. The two cameras are connected with either a physical wired connection or radio-frequency triggers. “The approach to remote-camera photography is rather

One of John’s favourite pictures, from his first and most memorable European Championships in 1996. like fishing. Some days you put your rod in the water and never really get anything special, but then one day you catch something amazing!” The workflow of a sports photographer has certainly come a long way from the days of film too, when taking a film processor, scanner and transmission equipment on location was common practice. Along with a technician to work it all. Nowadays John pops a memory card in his laptop, which is then remotely operated by his picture editor from anywhere in the world. Pictures are edited, captioned and cropped and can be with multiple clients and up for sale on the Action Images website in under 10 minutes.

Germany’s Stefan Kuntz celebrates the winning goal scored by Oliver Bierhoff against the Czech Republic, in the Euro ’96 final.

aspects of the picture – sharpness, great light, smooth background – but drama, human involvement and telling a story are more important. These are the pictures that will stick in people’s minds. Great goals, excitement and controversy. You remember the image of David Beckham being sent off at the 1998 World Cup – it’s not a technically great picture, but it has persisted and is still remembered today.

“You don’t need to be right next to the corner flag. Some of the nicest images I’ve seen are taken from the terraces, especially when you are including more of the pitch and stadium in the frame to give the picture some context,” John reveals. “I once shot a picture of the line-up before kick-off using a tilt-shift lens from way back in the stands. I’m very fond of it and it’s a photograph that really could have been taken by anyone.

“There are a few simple things you can do when shooting all sports. Always try and include faces. It’s faces and the expressions on them that give that all-important injection of human interest.

“Consumer-level cameras are great at high ISO sensitivities now, so you can work with low light and use fast shutter speeds to freeze action. A telezoom, like the Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM or EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM, is great for celebration shots too.”

Despite his high-tech equipment, John has his feet firmly on the ground when it comes to giving advice to others. “A successful football image needs to be memorable. All too often, we photographers get hung up on the technical

“Timing is important too. I know I have a camera that can shoot 12fps, but the first frame is still the most important. A fast burst rate really only ensures you get the action that comes next and that the camera is ready. Don’t rely on it to machine-gun the subject and assume you will get the perfect moment automatically.”

Shot with a tilt-shift lens provided on location by Canon Professional Solutions. “They will lend equipment for one-off shots and while mine is being repaired,” John says. “It’s a superb service.”

It’s often believed that the privileged pitch-side positions adopted by John and his fellow photographers give the access to shots that the general public can’t hope to capture. While this is certainly true in some situations, it’s not a complete barrier to decent shots from the stands.

“All the big stadiums have decent Internet access these days,” John reveals. “It’s fundamental to what we do.”

2012 sees a great summer of sport ahead of us. With your Canon EOS at your side you should have no shortage of images to remember it by in years to come. For more of John Sibley’s photography, visit www.actionimages.com For more information on the new Canon EOS-1D X, visit www.canon.co.uk

FOCUS Summer 12_FOCUS Summer 12 10/07/2012 17:14 Page 15

NIKON ADVERTORIAL Nikon ambassador and renowned professional photographer John Clements gives Focus magazine his first-hand experience of the Nikon D800

I don’t like to change my kit too often. It can work against you professionally with unnecessary workflow changes. But every so often, you should take sensible stock of the equipment you own and use, critically assess it’s continuing suitability, or simply its efficiency in your workflow. While my existing cameras were still doing a fine job, after looking at a combination of factors, I decided that a Nikon D800 would be a sensible addition to my tool set. It could I suspected, ultimately improve my workflow and logistics, let alone any stills image potential, plus enhance my DSLR video capabilities. I am fortunate to have accumulated a very high level of Nikon knowledge after decades of experience, so I know what I need to look for. Even so, it takes time to incorporate any new camera into my established workflow. So for the first month or so, I just grabbed a few hours here and there, to acclimatise myself, and look at the D800 within my existing set-up and modus operandi, to see how it fitted in to my established routines, and consider any changes. Overall, I have probably spent three to four full days working through the camera, which sounds a lot, but is important and saves both time, and unpleasant surprises, as the D800 now starts to earn its keep. One example? I use Nikon’s 'Total Imaging System' concept of cameras, lenses and software. So I have developed a new range of Picture Control solutions for various situations, which match my shooting style and image preferences which in the long term saves so much time. This helps ensure that all work is delivered in a consistent and reliable fashion. Likewise, optics and exposure systems are now ready for me to use with absolute confidence.

The D800 is certainly more portable than some of the cameras I have previously used, and that was a significant consideration especially as I can carry a lot of equipment for photo assignments. I have previously worked with the Nikon D3X and various medium format cameras, as and when necessary, and compared to these, the D800 is much lighter and portable. Most of my photography is not so much about low light or high ISO speed, more commercial quality, achieved through care and time taken with control of lighting. The handling and viewfinder qualities make image composition and shooting very straight forward, and while I will try to tripod mount the camera whenever I can to maximise the potential resolution, my first hand held shooting sessions proved it to be comfortable and delivered good image results. I would recommend considering faster shutter speeds whilst shooting hand held, than with some lower pixel count cameras to avoid any possible movement taking the edge off things. This is, of course, one of the main reasons so many have been looking at the D800. Initial impressions of the dynamic range are good, giving a strong, consistent image across the range of subjects I have worked with on the D800 so far. I have confidence that with this camera I can handle any shooting situations from product shots, to wedding, landscape and even architectural photography. It is early days certainly. Over the coming months I have some interesting work planned that will enable me to further test the potential of the D800. So far, it’s looking very good!

RENAISSANCE PHOTOGRAPHY PRIZE 2012 The 2012 Renaissance Photography Prize Awards Ceremony took place at London’s Mall Galleries on Wednesday 13th June. Now in its fifth year, Renaissance is an international photography competition where all entry fees go to the Lavender Trust at Breast Cancer Care, supporting younger women with breast cancer.

Photography Prize for the past two years. Founded in 2006 by Fiona Gifford, following her own diagnosis of breast cancer at the age of 34, Renaissance has raised over £200,000 for the Lavender Trust to date.

The best 100 images selected by judges Michael Hoppen, Monica Allende, Brett Rogers, Mary McCartney and Brigitte Lardinois were exhibited for one week, with the winners announced on the night by Cherie Blair and Catherine Tate. The Calumet Prize for best photograph taken on film went to Julieta Sans, for an image from her series “A Long Adolescence”, which explores the difficulties of the younger generation in establishing and leading what is understood as an adult life. She was presented with her prize of a Nikon F6 camera by Brenda Eyers, HR director at Calumet. Calumet is proud to have supported the Renaissance

Calumet Winner, Julieta Sans and Calumet HR Director, Brenda Eyers.

Scottish Nature Photographer of the Year Calumet have continued to support the Scottish Nature Photography Awards Photographic Competition this year and the winners were recently announced, with Inverness-shire photographer Marcus Conway claiming the overall winning position with his captivating image of an otter. The competition attracted over two thousand entries from photographers around the world, and the judges had a tough job to pick the winning images. Neil McIntyre, one of the judges said: “It was going to take something extra special to stand out from so many great shots. However, the winning image of the Otter was a unanimous winner. This iconic, elusive animal was captured brilliantly by Marcus Conway, showing great character and capturing a perfect moment in time.” Calumet will be supporting the 2012 competition, which also includes Student and Junior Scottish Nature Photographer of the Year titles. Entries are now open.

PHOTOGRAPHER SPOTLIGHT

“I’m still totally addicted to what I do. I have never had a problem getting up and going to work in the mornings.”

Eddie Keogh ‘Fast Eddie’ captures the sports world at 12 frames per second Just two photographs adorn the walls at top sports photographer Eddie Keogh’s Oxfordshire-based house. And he’s not the author of either of them. Award-winning Reuters shooter Eddie (49) has spent almost three decades clicking shutters on all continents. He’s taken countless thousands of images at the world’s leading sporting events – including no less than seven football World Cup finals. He rubs shoulders with sporting superstars like Beckham and Tiger Woods and his iconic images continue to grace the pages of national and international national newspapers and magazines. But the pictures on his own walls were taken by another sports ‘photo-great’, The Sunday Times’ legendary Chris Smith. “I really have just a couple of mentors” says Eddie, “Paul Delmar, my college tutor, really inspired me to become passionate about photography. And the second is Chris – a brilliant photographer who has captured some of the most

memorable sporting pictures in recent sports history. One of the photographs is his shot of champion Spanish golfer Seve Ballesteros, taken in dreadful weather conditions at the Open Championship in Sandwich back in 1985. Seve was trying to pull on a rain jacket but the elements conspired against him and in that captured moment he (very fittingly) resembled a matador with his cape slung across his shoulders. A superb little cameo moment.” Eddie’s enthusiasm for photography was first ignited when, as a child, he was driven around Europe by his mum in a VW camper van. “I think I was shooting with the old Kodak 110 cartridge-based film” he recalls, “And I just loved the entire photo-capture experience. It pointed out the way forward for me.” After studying A-Level photography he migrated to Sheffield College to complete an NCTJ-accredited press photography course. “By about the time I was leaving

school I guess photography was just becoming part of my DNA. To my mother’s delight I had blacked out windows in the house and I was mixing chemicals in my bedroom before developing all my own black and white work. Those were great and glorious days”, he smiles. He landed his first ‘proper’ job at the acclaimed Liverpool-based Mercury Press Agency before trekking south to London to another agency; Sport and General. “In those days I used to take my pictures, print them at the office and then run around Fleet Street dropping prints off at the picture desks of all the newspapers.” Eddie started freelancing for the then newly-launched Today newspaper in 1986. He tells Focus: “Within a month I was offered a staff job – and almost in the same breath they asked me if I would like to go to Mexico and cover the World Cup. My jaw just

dropped. I couldn’t believe my luck.” After a decade at Today he moved to The Sun where he covered sport for the paper for a further ten years before leaving to join Reuters. “This was a photography decision”, he notes. “It was nothing to do with money, it was just time to make the move. When you work for titles like The Sun you really play second fiddle to the journalists. You are filling in ‘picture holes’ for them around whatever it is they are writing about. But at Reuters it’s different. It’s all about the pictures. It’s a much more suitable environment for me.”

Eddie covers pretty much the full gamut of sport; football, tennis, boxing, golf, rugby – and of course The Olympics. Equipment ‘must-haves’ apply; high-end capture devices with high shutter speeds, interchangeable lenses, Pocket Wizards and trusty tripods, but equally important is the personal ‘head-down’ study that’s required ahead of all events. He reveals: “Professional sports shooters don’t just turn up with a camera. We have to do our homework. At Reuters we work for many different media platforms including tabloids and broadsheets, so I am constantly having to think about the relationship of my picture to the

page space and shape it will sit on – whether, for example, it’s going to be a portrait for a tabloid or perhaps what we call a wide and moody ‘fluffy’ shot for The Guardian.” “Additionally, it’s important to know the latest ‘ins and outs’ of each sport; the story, the big names, who is doing what. In this business it’s important to have a little knowledge about everything. You have to put in some time familiarising yourself with what lies behind the event you are about to shoot.” A keen footballer himself until recently, Eddie acknowledges that covering big matches is still a big thrill

for him. “The great thing about photography generally, is that you can combine it with whatever your interest is; gardening, fashion, cycling – or in my case, sport, and in particular, football. I love shooting the matches but I confess that occasionally, if it’s a freezing cold December night and it’s Wolves versus Bolton, it doesn’t tend to hold the same cachet as covering the recent Euro 2012 final in Kiev (Spain against Italy) or the prospect of heading off to Brazil in a couple of years to cover the next World Cup.” Eddie likes to work with up to five cameras at a football game. “I did have five in Kiev” he states: “I had two behind the goal, a 400 zoom and a wide angle by my feet

– just in case there might be a goal celebration right in front of me. Right now I’m using the amazing new Canon EOS-1DX, which is just the most incredible piece of kit. The inexorable march of technology has been nothing short of incredible in recent years. Now, instead of rushing back with film to print pictures and rush to the papers, I shoot at 12 fps. I take the pictures, shove the card into a laptop and it’s all sucked down to a server and edited – and all from anywhere in the world. The 1DX gives me both high resolution capture and high speed shooting. Canon themselves have termed this camera as ‘performance redefined’ and it’s hard to argue with that assessment.”

But ask him about a favourite image taken over his comprehensive career and he confesses: “Well I am a perfectionist so I still believe I am yet to take the picture that will give me most pleasure.” “When it comes to football for example, it is impossible to capture every goal. It’s 50:50 whether you get the shot you want, because people get in the way or you just don’t get lucky at the moment you shoot. I don’t track the zone (the area in front of goal where some photographers will focus and wait until the ball and players move into it) I just follow the game. It becomes instinctive.” “I can tell from body language and players’ facial expressions, who is going to get the ball and what might

just happen next. And one of these days I might just take a decent picture!” The glass is always half full for Eddie but he admits it’s getting tougher for freelancers in his marketplace. “If you are a pro then you have to earn money” he observes. “And it’s getting harder. For young photographers agencies are a good entry point but passion is even more key now. You will only survive in this game if you are truly passionate and have the obsessive drive required to stick with it. Some contemporaries will suggest that the glory days in this business are over but when you are young and still have the mountain to climb, you won’t see it like that.

You can still have a great time – go to Wembley or Chelsea, or perhaps the London Fashion Show for an agency. When you are 21 or 22... what a buzz that is!”

on an iPhone doesn’t make you a photographer. If I tighten a screw under my kitchen sink it doesn’t make me a plumber, does it?”

But Eddie believes all young photographers really need to work at learning what the profession really is all about.

The next big thing in the Keogh calendar will be The Olympics. “I can’t wait” he says. “I’ll be wandering in to Calumet to make sure I’m properly kitted out, and then, for the first week I will be with a team of Reuters guys driving around in a white van! We will be diving in and out where we think we are short of coverage, or where there is a big story. The second week I’ll be covering athletics, including Usain Bolt in the 100 metres. It can’t get any better, can it?

“It is an art and it needs to be learnt” he suggests. “When I am at a football match sometimes I will hear a shutter going non-stop and I just wonder what on earth the guy is doing. Just wait for the moment.” He adds: “Now of course smartphones have rekindled the entire world of photography. The profile of photography itself is being raised – but snapping an autofocus image

SUNBOUNCE

The Sunbounce System Simple, Strong and Lightweight The Sunbounce system consists of a patented three-dimensional dismountable aluminium framework which works together with various screens. These are reflective, translucent or light-blocking and can be hand held or mounted onto support stands. The frame and screens all pack down into a supplied shoulder sling bag making it a truly portable solution. Choose from 4 sizes and a choice of fabric colours.

Sun-Scrim Starter Kits contain a 2/3rd seamless translucent butterfly screen, frame, grip heads, bungee snakes and a smart carrying case.

Sun-Swatter

Sun-Mover

Accessories

Like an over-proportioned fly swatter, the Sun-Swatter is a quick and easy “shadow caster” on a pole that can control harsh midday sunlight and allows you to work at any time of the day, irrespective of the altitude and direction of the sun. Set-up is simple and can be hand-held or stand mounted. All kits include a 2/3rd Stop Translucent screen, frame, grip-head, boom-stick and carry bag.

At a glance the Sun-Mover looks like an ordinary pop-up reflector but the two ergonomically shaped handlebars are also used to provide perfect light control. Bending the reflector towards yourself and the light will be bundled like a spotlight, bending the face outwards creates scattered, soft light. The plane reflection face allows normal light. It’s oval space ensures the material remains tense at all times for a perfectly smooth surface.

NATIONAL MEDIA MUSEUM

Capturing all the sports action in 1948 – and not a motor drive in sight

The Olympic mantra: faster, higher, stronger. It refers to the aspirations, ambitions and the inevitable evolution of the world’s best athletes of course – but it could equally be applied to the constantly evolving photographic equipment used to cover these historic sporting events.

In an exclusive interview for Focus Magazine, Colin Harding, who is responsible for the National Photographic Technology Collection at Bradford’s National Media Museum (which houses over 3.5 million items of historical significance) explained: “Everything was extremely tightly controlled by the Olympic Photo Association. Professional photographer numbers were restricted at each event. At Wembley only eight were allowed to operate at any one time. They The finish of the men's 400 metres at the Olympics, London, 1948, Olympic Photo Association were not free to wander around the track and they had to operate within a photo-pool picture editors required certain images; a starting line arrangement, whereby all images had to be made shot; a middle race picture; a ‘crossing the winning line’ available to all agencies of the day, the PA, Reuters, and photograph and then the celebrations and podium shots.” AP etc.” At the1948 Games Omega introduced its stunning new photo-finish camera. At the 1948 Games there were only 3,000 photographs

The last time England hosted The Games in 1948 they were dubbed ‘The Austerity Games’ or alternatively, ‘The Shoestring Games’. Organisers dumped 800 tonnes of cinders over the Wembley greyhound track and called it an athletics stadium. Athletes were housed in RAF camps and were told to bring their own food. Drug testing was limited to checking to see if anyone had managed to overdose on Horlicks tablets. In the modern era billions of television viewers across the world get the chance to watch events as they unfold, on countless channels, on the internet and on their smartphones.

printed in total. These days more than that are taken at the 100 metres final alone.”

EMI CPS Emitron camera head, 1950.

Back in 1948 choice was a little more limited. There was just one channel. The Games were the first to be properly televised by the BBC using an Emitron – the first electronic TV camera. The problem was that hardly anyone had a TV set then, so the only realistic options for most were radio and the next day’s newspapers.

Added Colin: “Most press photographers would have been using conventional pre-war cameras like the Goerz-Anschutz; an MPP or Linhof model of the day.

The challenges for working photographers were different at that time. They had to work with glass plates – not motor drives! At the 1948 games a fleet of motorcycle messengers transported exposed plates back from the stadium to Fleet Street all day long – and repeatedly returned to Wembley with fresh materials for photographers. Just compare that workflow with today’s instant hi-res image despatch to picture desks from a laptop.” “All images were monochrome, of course, for newspapers. Kodachrome was starting to come in but it wasn’t used by the media at that point. Photographers just had to be extremely selective. Realistically they only had, say, a total of 24 plates with which to capture an event. They needed to be very aware of what they were shooting. They had to judge which was the optimum position required to capture the moment.” © National Media Museum/SSPL

This summer the BBC is planning to broadcast the 100 metres final in 3D and will also be testing new ‘super hi-vision’ technology that some say will render HD TV obsolete in the next few years. Super hi-vision is said to be at least 16 times better than HD TV and gives viewers the sensation of actually being seated at the televised event itself.

Photographers were of course limited by the versatility (or lack of it) of their equipment, which hadn’t much changed since pre-war days.

Noted Colin: “It was a first in 1948. But today we are talking about photo-finish cameras working at an incredible 10,000 frames a second. These cameras can separate two F1 racing cars crossing the finish line at 200mph, to a tenth of an inch.”

But by 1948 photographers were using cameras capable of freezing motion. Said Colin: “Focal-plane shutters meant they could capture an athlete hurdling, for example. Overall the photos taken then were quite formulaic because

The National Media Museum has released tickets for unique free screenings from the London 2012 Olympics through the latest broadcast innovation, Super Hi-Vision. The unique partnership with the BBC will see Bradford as one of only three places in the UK, and six worldwide, where audiences can experience this new technology. Super Hi-Vision combines Ultra High Definition images - 16 times the resolution of today’s High Definition Television standard - with advanced 22.2 multichannel surround sound. All of which creates a truly immersive viewer experience that genuinely feels like ‘being there’. 28 July - 12 August FREE Screenings www.nationalmediamuseum.org.uk Tickets are now available on a first come first served basis. Visit the National Media Museum website or call the box office on 0844 856 3797 to book tickets.

BLIPFOTO

Calumet has launched a partnership with Blipfoto the online daily photo journal.

get better over the year - in fact, given the daily discipline, you almost can't help improving, no matter how good you are.

The partnership will create a new, interactive platform to re-launch Calumet's popular weekly photography challenge. Photographers will now be able to submit their pictures to Blipfoto for the chance to win Calumet's “Photo of the Week”, while now also sharing them with tens of thousands of other photographers around the world. Blipfoto started as a personal project of an Edinburgh photographer but has since turned into a global phenomenon, with members in over 170 countries. Here's how it works. Users post just one picture a day and write a short journal piece alongside the photo. Contributers don't have to take a picture every day - but it does have to be taken on the day stated.

It's a simple premise, but a discipline that has proved to be inspiring for all standards of photographer - from professional photographers to keen snappers who just want to share their daily lives. People often start with little expertise in photography but

“As a photographer, I've always enjoyed buying my gear from Calumet they're a great bunch who know what they're talking about. So I'm really pleased our two communities will be sharing Photo of the Week. It's going to be a lot of fun.” Joe Tree, Blipfoto founder and CEO

Another important part of Blipfoto is its sense of community. Despite being expansive in its geographic reach, its users are supportive, adding comments, favouriting pictures and helping fellow 'Blippers' in their daily quest - whatever it may be. Contributers have a variety of motives for using the site. Many want to record a year or more of their life; others simply enjoy the challenge of taking a picture everyday; and for some it's just the chance to share their experiences. The site has already shared almost 2 million images. But what makes this more special is that each photo shared represents a single day in someone's life. For this reason, Blipfoto offers a unique insight of how the world looks on any given day.

SENSOR CLEANING and EXTENDED WARRANTIES

Keep your sensors clean at Calumet

When dust or other airborne particles land on your camera’s sensor, it wreaks havoc on all of your images. That’s why it’s important to have your sensor checked and cleaned on a regular basis. To get the best performance from your equipment, we recommend that professional photographers have their camera sensors cleaned once a month and amateurs once every three months. We offer a sensor cleaning service at our retail stores across the country. It will be cleaned by a fully trained member of staff and can offer a 24 hour service so that you don’t have to be without your camera for long.

Sensor cleaning can be carried out on most models of DSLR’s – please check with your local store that your model is suitable. Please ensure that your camera is full charged when you bring your camera in for sensor cleaning. With prices starting at only £36 for a partial sensor, ensure that your photographs are free of any imperfections. Speak to a member of staff in store for more information.
