We’d like to encourage our friends and family to join us in making the best use of our time while we’re practicing social distancing by investing in ourselves. Our way of facilitating that is to launch “Project Lemonade” – an ongoing series of informative and (hopefully) entertaining webinars that you’ll be able to join remotely. There will be a variety of topics, from hardware tips & software tutorials, to project workflows and digitization case studies, making this a perfect way to spend an idle hour or two, while simultaneously adding to your knowledge and understanding of photography.

In this webinar we’ll offer a rundown of the nature of dynamic range, noise, sensor technology, quantum mechanics, the nature of measuring light, and how these theoretical topics can help us produce more beautiful images. Scenes with a wide range of tone (e.g. a landscape image with bright clouds and dark tree bark in harsh shadows) can challenge even the most capable camera’s dynamic range. In this webinar you’ll learn both the theory and the practice, of maximizing the dynamic range of your camera, regardless of what make or model of camera you’ll use, squeezing every last iota of pleasing shadow detail from a scene without losing the brightest highlights, all the while avoiding the garish look of poorly done HDR imaging. 

Lau is an ideal instructor for this topic. His formal education is a Masters in Image Processing and Electrical Engineering. Now, as Chief Visionary Officer (and former Head of R+D), Lau focuses heavily on the technologies both hardware, firmware, and software, that allows Phase One cameras to lead the industry in both theoretical and realized dynamic range.

Topics during the presentation will include:

• Collecting Light: A technical run through of how light is collected for digital photography and how the uncertainty of quantum physics makes digital photography an inherently tricky wicket! 
• Modern EBTR: Digital photography theorists have long promoted a concept called Expose To The Right (ETTR), but in the last few years improvements in software have allowed Exposing Right by leveraging one-channel recovery. For some subjects this allows more than one stop of additional exposure, greatly improving shadows.
• Diagnosing the Raw Histogram: The histogram on your camera, unless it’s a Phase One, is lying to you, because it’s only showing you a JPG histogram. We’ll discuss how to best use the histogram from any camera, even when it lies to you.
• ISO and Capture Mode: Many cameras have settings that affect native Dynamic Range such as higher or lower bit-depth capture. We’ll look at practical examples of the impact these choices make on highlight and shadow retention.
• Breaking the Laws of Physics: Tools like Frame Averaging and the DualExposure+ feature of the Phase One IQ4 make “computational photography” far faster and easier, but we’ll look at the underlying techniques themselves, which can be applied using any camera.
• Software: Not all raw software is the same. We’ll compare the deep shadow recovery and scene rendering of Capture One and how it can help you create images that include wide scene dynamic range without turning the image into a gnarly HDR mess.

Wether you’ve shot Phase One before or are just curious about why our clients choose medium format, we invite photographers of all experience levels and camera platforms/formats to expand their photography knowledge with this interesting technical overview.

We’ll compare and contrast images live and offer plenty of opportunity for questions. 

A little bit about Keith:
New York City native Keith Major’s love for photography and art began in his pre-teen years, when he attended after-school programs at the Brooklyn Museum of Art and Pratt Institute. Keith specialized in photography at New York’s highly regarded High School of Art and Design, and after graduation attended the prestigious Rochester Institute of Technology, where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. With more than 30 years of experience and a roster of A-list clients including Sony Music, Colgate-Palmolive, Essence and Cosmopolitan, Keith has achieved his childhood dreams and established a sterling reputation as one of New York’s most talented and productive commercial photographers.

Not everyone is ready to jump directly into our widely acclaimed Capture One Masters Program (COMP)! Maybe you’re new to Capture One, or have been using it for years but are self taught and could use a formal introductory class on how Capture One was meant, by its programmers, to be used. In such cases we recommend Capture One Basics.

Capture One Basics is a two and a half hour class that mixes lecture, demonstration, and hands-on examples for Capture One Session workflow (so don’t forget to bring a laptop). It is designed to be a solid stand-alone class for those wanting a beginner level introduction to Capture One, or as a primer for the more advanced COMP classes.

Topic Overview:

Capture One: What and Wherefore

• What is Capture One. What functions does it serve well and poorly?
• Why or Why Not Capture One. Demonstrations of pros and cons compared to LightRoom, Bridge, and Photoshop

Basic File Management

• Sessions vs Catalogs: What they are and when each is appropriate
• Session Workflow: Including hands on examples.
• Basic Navigation: Finding, sorting, filtering, and organizing your images

Basic Adjustments and Output

• Getting the look you want from an image
• Exporting or processing to TIFF/JPG
• Photoshop Round tripping 

Customization

• Keyboard Shortcuts
• Workspace tweaks for different workflows

Frequently Asked Questions:

1. Should I take COMP or Capture One Basics?
Take our COMPetency Quiz! Upon submission, you will receive an answer key. There is no set number; the more you get right, the more ready you are for COMP! Please Note: Please be honest with your readiness for the class. If you are not well versed in the basics when you attend COMP, it will slow down the rest of the class and is unfair to everyone else. If you’re not sure if you’re ready for COMP, then we’d recommend taking Capture One Basics.

2. Does Capture One Basics come with a license for Capture One Pro?
No, the fee does not include Capture One. You can purchase it here and receive 10% off with the DT coupon code.

3. What Should I Bring?
During the class we will be doing hands-on exercises so you should bring a laptop with the latest version of Capture One Pro already installed and activated.

You’ll get a unique hands-on opportunity to experience shooting with the world’s most advanced photographic equipment from Phase One , Cambo &  Wine Country Filters with print output provided by Blazing Editions.

Architectural photography is a demanding discipline that poses a number of technical and aesthetic challenges. It requires a deep understanding of perspective, composition, environmental dynamics, and interaction of light and space.  

This workshop is a perfect combination of both classroom presentations held at the Digital Transitions NY Showroom and shooting at some of the most iconic locations around the New York City area. 

We will cover a step-by-step workflow for architectural photography, including how to:

• Choose the right equipment for the job
• Conduct a virtual location scout 
• Understand environmental dynamics and the interplay of time, weather, form, and light
• Use camera position and lens movements to optimize composition and perspective
• Exploit the unique advantages of technical camera systems
• Employ advanced capture strategies such exposure averaging and focus stacking
• Use neutral density filters
• Develop alternative looks and process your images for maximum impact

This workshop is invaluable for aspiring architectural and interior photographers, designers and architects seeking to improve the images they take of their own work, those in the real estate business, and anyone who loves architecture and the built environment.

What’s included:

• Three mornings of Classroom Instruction/Presentation (light breakfast included)
• Two afternoon/evenings of shooting around NYC, Long Island City, and Brooklyn (exact locations to be provided prior workshop)
• Transportation between shoot locations 
• Access to experience the latest Phase One Systems including the Phase One XT & IQ4, Cambo Technical Cameras, Wine Country Filter Holders and Filters* 
• Technical assistance from the Digital Transitions Support Team Experts
• Included in the price of this workshop is an opportunity to have one of your select images printed by Blazing Editions on Aluminum

What you should bring:

• Camera 
• Sturdy Tripod
• Laptop

We encourage you to bring your own camera system to use, but you will have the opportunity to experience shooting with the Phase One equipment we have available. If you would like to reserve your own system for the workshop we have special rental packages available please contact us.
