After several months of using rolling backpacks on shoots, here is what I’ve learned

by Jędrzej Sokołowski 10
As professional photographers, we need to be able to sell not only our photographs but also ourselves – our image.

A medium-sized tripod that we can always take with us: review of Leofoto LQ-284C

by Jędrzej Sokołowski 2
Not everyone who takes photos needs to have a tripod. However, in architectural photography, a camera practically doesn’t exist without a tripod. Moreover, it is worth having more than one tripod! Many people believe that the optimal solution is to have three models… A large, versatile “workhorse” tripod (such as the previously mentioned Leofoto LM-324CL or the competing Gitzo GT3543XLS) A medium-sized tripod that we can always take with us, for example, in carry-on luggage or attach to a backpack when going hiking (Albrecht Voss described the Gitzo GK2545T-82QD model) A pocket-sized tabletop tripod that can be useful in specific situations (check out Mike Kelley’s review of the Platypod or the Gitzo Mini Traveler Tabletop Tripod).
