Following the announcements of the Nikon D800/D800E and the Canon 5DMIII there has been significant discussion regarding these cameras and what it would mean particularly for us fashion photographers. The resulting podcast is a candid conversation between Charles LUCIMA and Rodney Alan about the Nikon D800/D800E and the Canon 5DMIII based upon our experiences with the Nikon D3 and the Canon 5DMII and 7D. Listen in as we discuss our impressions of the specs, AA-filters, comparison to medium format, what we need, and where we see this going as it pertains to fashion photography. 1 spot left for our upcoming workshop! http://lucima.com/education/group/upcoming-workshop Charles LUCIMA: http://www.lucima.com Rodney Alan online http://www.rodneyalan.com/

Keith and I respond to the question, "How involved are you with model development? What do you say to a model when you want her to work a certain way to achieve a look such as from your editorial portfolio?" I have a formal response here with all the articles linked: http://lucimablog.blogspot.com/2015/05/git-r-done.html

Keith was talking through his presentation notes for the Working with Modeling Agencies Workshop (http://lucima.com/the-concrete-loft-workshop/). He suggested that photographers discuss with modeling agents the possibility of submitting their test images to magazines. That got us talking about setting precedents and expectations. The conversation picks up midstream.
