Musician and YouTuber Tucker Tota has released a nearly one-hour-long video where he breaks down Bo Burnham's comedy special "Inside" and offers his thoughts on how he believes it was produced.

The World Press Photo organization just published the winners of its 2021 competition and in its annual tradition, Spanish website Photolari has followed with its breakdown of brands, systems, and cameras that were used. So, has much changed since last year?

The Marine Corps’ latest ad is a masterclass in cinematography, advertising, and visual allegory. It is the result of Oscar-winning talent and keen insight by a sophisticated advertising agency. Such mastery of the cinematic language warrants a deeper look.

Most photographers know the basics of lens-based image stabilization (Lens IS) and in-body image stabilization (IBIS), but if you've ever wanted a technical deep-dive that explains exactly how these systems work to generate 4, 5, or even 7 stops of stabilization, this video from Imaging Resource is here to answer that call.

The team at Lensrentals just published Part 2 of their fascinating flange distance test, where they compared various Sony, Canon, and Micro Four Thirds stills cameras. What they found is particularly relevant to Sony shooters, or anyone with a camera that has IBIS.

Roger Cicala and his team at Lensrentals recently embarked on a fascinating experiment. Using the ample stock of cameras at their disposal, they started to examine the variation in 'flange to sensor' difference between individual copies of the same camera body, and what they found is both surprising and educational.

Hollywood writer and director Rian Johnson—the man behind movies like Looper, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and most recently Knives Out—revealed an interesting bit of filmmaking trivia during an interview with Vanity Fair yesterday: Apple won't let bad guys use iPhones on camera.

This composition started as a practice (practice and playing) like most of my composites. I think that's the key of growing and good execution on art: do not think about doing things right but instead focus on having fun with creating.

Raymond Thi—the creator of the Composition Cam app and ultra-popular Twitter account—is back with another great database for composition-obsessed photographers. It's called Geometric Shots, and it's a searchable collection of great composition from well-known films and TV shows.

Photographer Karl Taylor made this 7-minute walkthrough video after people asked about his lighting setup for a commercial studio portrait he shot and posted to Facebook.

World Press Photo yesterday announced the winners of its 2016 contest, honoring the best news photos captured in 2015. Above is a breakdown of the cameras that were used by the photographers who were honored by photojournalism's biggest prize.

Flickr recently gathered up photo and camera data to review the past year, and now the company is doing some number crunching to reveal major trends in the cameras used by the photographer community.

The graph above shows how the popularity of major camera brands have changed over the past half decade.

Billions of photos were uploaded by photographers to Flickr over the course of 2015. As this year is winding down, Flickr has crunched some numbers and announced the top photos and cameras on the photo sharing service this year.

In my mind, there are three important elements of a photograph. Lighting, Composition and Moment. Every picture that I love has these elements, in varying amounts. A great picture may have strength in all three areas, or it may be, for example, such an emotional moment that it overpowers poor composition or light.

But for this article I want to take a quick look at composition, and how photographers will be subconsciously considering many compositional elements when making pictures as well as editing and post processing later.

The prestigious World Press Photo contest announced the winning photos of 2014 last week. In case you were curious, here's a look at the cameras that were used to capture the winning photographs.

When it comes to choosing an action cam to film your daring, crazy and possibly stupid adrenaline–fueled endeavors, there is no shortage of options. To help you make a more informed decision based on your needs and performance of the cameras, Gizmodo has tested six different action cameras, quite literally putting them head-to-head.

Ever since we here at LensRentals first tested a Sony A7R, we were dying to take a look under the hood. Say what you will about Sony as a company, but they create some of the most elegantly-engineered camera bodies we’ve seen. Plus, the A7R is something of a groundbreaking camera, and we wanted to see how they crammed all that stuff into its little body.

We’re not entirely sure what Sony was trying to do with this video, but we find ourselves sort of …

Reuters has published its list of the best photographs taken in 2012, a massive collection of 95 powerful images showing different events that have occurred around the globe over the past year.
