PocketWizard Goes to the Olympics
At the 2012 Olympic summer games, Reuters is trying something new: robots! Using a system they have been developing since 2009, Reuters will place eleven robotic cameras high in the rafters of the Olympic stadium, a point of view otherwise inaccessible to photographers.
The photographers will then be able to control the cameras remotely using a joystick and fire them via wireless transmitter. Pictures will be transmitted wirelessly into their editing system where they can then be sent out all over the world.
Click here to read the full article on Reuters’ site written by Fabrizio Bensch and see more photos of the robo-cam’s installation. In the shot below we’ve spotted a PocketWizard MultiMAX radio trigger helping to get the angles no one else will.
Nadav Kander on Portraiture
Settle in for an outstanding 13 mins on the philosophy of portraiture from one of the most interesting portraitists working today. (If you are not familiar with the work of Nadav Kander, you may want to take a look at his website [some NSFW] first.)
Produced by the National Portrait Gallery as a tie-in to the 2012 Olympics, this is by far the most detailed look I have yet seen into how Kander works. As a bonus, there are several still BTS shots showing his portrait sets.

Photokina Booth Images Selection Two
FREDRIK FRANZÉN
Photokina booth images, selection two: Michael Muller & Michal Korta
On May 22, we asked you to submit images that we can show in our booth at this year’s Photokina trade fair. The response was better than we ever could have hoped for. We got way more images than we can show and we consequently had to choose just a few. The final selection consists of images from previous blog participants as well as images from you, our readers.
We will present these images continuously here on our blog, right up until Photokina begins. Stay tuned. And to all those who shared their work with us – thank you! It is truly inspiring to see the stuff you create with the help of our gear.
These two images were shot by American photographer Michael Muller and Polish photographer Michal Korta.

Zomertip! PocketWizard Plus III
Maak nu foto’s die u nog nooit gemaakt hebt, door middel van een remote camera setup. Verbind 1 PocketWizard Plus III met de camera via een speciale Pre-Trigger kabel, die op het afstandsbediening- contact wordt aangesloten. De 2e Plus III gaat op de andere camera of houdt u in de hand. Nu kunt u vanaf een veilige afstand, zonder verstoring, de dieren in hun natuurlijke omgeving vastleggen. Door een camera met groothoek dicht bij de paal te positioneren, ziet u het dier in zijn natuurlijke omgeving. Maar u kunt dezelfde situatie ook tegelijkertijd met een camera + telelens fotograferen, zodat het onderwerp “los” komt van de achtergrond.
