Fine art portrait photographer David Teran traveled the world with his 1969 Hasselblad 500C/M camera to capture beautiful black and white portraits of some of the most talented and powerful ballerinas. Teran has launched a Kickstarter campaign to celebrate the multi-year project to release a special book, Hasselblad Ballet.
In addition to being the chief storyteller for Mojang Studios, makers of the popular video game Minecraft, Lydia Winters has also become known for her product photography where she specializes in watches and inspires others looking to break into underrepresented spaces.
Photographer Mark Fore has a classic Hasselblad 500C/M that he would love to shoot digitally, but he didn't want to drop $6,400 on the new 907x 50c with the compatible CFV II 50C digital back. Instead, he picked up a 17-year-old Phase One H20 for less than $600 on eBay, and he couldn't be happier about it.
Instant photos are magical. They develop before your eyes. You can share them, gift them, spill water on them, draw on them. The only problem is that most instant cameras are pretty cheap — that’s why I’ve always wanted to hack my medium format camera to take instant photos with shallow depth of field and sharpness.
Earlier this year, photographer Carl Pendle released a popular video showing himself doing street photography with a Hasselblad 500C/M, from the perspective of the photographer looking down into the camera's viewfinder.
That was simply "a test video" he says. Now he's back again with a more polished attempt at the same idea. The video above shows the "viewfinder view" of a recent project in which Pendle shot portraits of barbers in London barbershops.
Inspired by the viral Paris Through Pentax video we shared not too long ago, photographer Carl Pendle recently decided to put his own twist on the Inception-esque style of 'through the viewfinder' videos and take you on a street photography jaunt through his hometown.
