Must-see, lol (sound must be turned up loud!).

I’ve been waiting for this for years and FINALLY someone’s done it!

Sony, with it’s NEX VG-10 Camcorder.
(I was hoping Nikon or Canon would, but they’ve been such slouches lately)

• APS-C Exmor CMOS Sensor.
• Interchangeable lenses.
• 1920x1080i.
• 14 MP Stills at 7 fps (wow).

Now it’s time to finally forget all those crappy DSLRs posing as video cameras.

On website-bios and interviews some wedding photographers sometimes write/say a few ridiculous things meant to impress. Someone.

Since everyone seems to say the same stuff, it doesn’t really work.

“I’m passionate about photography”

Yeah. You’d have to be, because you aren’t really earning much money. The passion somewhat compensates the low income. The ones who are financially successful have their passion elsewhere: in running a business.

“I got my first camera at age {x}” (insert any low digit)

Everyone has, so who cares? Now if your mom gave birth to you holding a camera in your hands, that would be news.

“In my first year I shot {xx} weddings!!!” (insert high double or triple digit number)

Of course you did, your prices were so ridiculously low!

You won’t say that you
i) didn’t earn any money
ii) almost killed yourself through work-overload
iii) nearly ruined your relationship/marriage in the process.

Ok, if you’re a bride or groom, this is not for you. Go away. NOW!

For all others, listen in how six women wedding photographers discuss their business while pulling everything in the dirt. All the while they’re having loads of fun.
