Dita Von Teese, undoubtedly the burlesque artist of her generation, has become a real style icon and, as WWD point out today, there is no denying that she knows the power of the reveal.
Luckily for us, it so happens that the glorious lady is working on a beauty book with L.A.-based author Rose Apodaca. We love its point of difference – it's aimed at peddling self esteem and showing that conforming to a beauty ideal isn't necessary. Dita remarks that it's easy to think 'we're supposed to look like natural beauty, healthy, tan…but I'm trying to lay it out and show people the other forms of beauty. People that don't have a little tiny button nose and blonde hair. Someone's going to love you for what makes you different.'
Dita's also added photographer to her many talents as she's taking all the images for the book, as well as mastering the step-by-step beauty looks, too. 'I don't use a hair and makeup team to get ready for the red carpet,' she reveals, 'I'm trying to get out the do-it-yourself message. I don't go to the salon when I need to color my hair, I pull out my box of hair dye. I want women to understand that you don't have to have the glam squad to put you together.' Love it!
Dita also aspires to doing her own make-up brand. 'I want to do my line, because I feel like things are missing in the world,' she said. 'I'm constantly trying to mix up colors…I mix my own body make-up. I love the idea of beautiful packaging for cosmetics. I use a lot of vintage powder compacts, and I buy vintage lipstick tubes and transfer lip colors into them.' And the cornerstone of her cosmetics line? A matte lippy of course.
Also on her to-do list, is a Dita Scent, especially after she found that she and her boyfriend's mother both wore the same scent, Quelque Fleurs. "I'd been wearing it since I was 14. So when I found that out, I immediately called my friend Kilian Hennessey, (ie, one of Grazia Daily's absolute fave perfumers), and said 'What do I do? It's my signature scent.' He said to me, 'Either get rid of the man, or get rid of the fragrance. You have no other options.' So I've been wearing other things, but what I really want to do is make my own fragrance. I don't want to smell like anyone else.' As for discussions with fragrance firms, she added, 'I have to talk to the smaller companies.'
So yes, Dita is set to conquer the beauty world any time now. Excited? We are.

Ampersand Cocktail
This equal-parts drink, made with cognac, Old Tom gin, and sweet vermouth, is luscious and smooth, with a little candied-orange sweetness and a touch of vanilla. More
This equal-parts drink, made with cognac, Old Tom gin, and sweet vermouth, is luscious and smooth, with a little candied-orange sweetness and a touch of vanilla. More
The cocktail program at Trou Normand focuses on Calvados, Armagnac, and Cognac. But that narrow focus doesn't feel like a gimmick here, and their spin on the Old Fashioned is worth braving the crowds. More
There's something about punch that transports us back to the days of Dickens, and this warm milk punch dates back even further. It's a delicious, lighter-tasting alternative to a classic eggnog that doesn't taste as boozy as a hot toddy. More
A tasty fall cocktail with a cognac base, made with Fernet Branca, maple syrup, and tart apple cider vinegar, plus a sprinkle of cinnamon. More
This cocktail from Mark Brinker and Jessica Tessendorf of Chicago's Barrelhouse Flat is a tasty fall drink with a cognac base. Fernet Branca, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar all contribute to the subtle complexity of the flavor, while cinnamon adds an autumnal aroma. More
The Grasshopper cocktail is a sweet green-colored after dinner drink. The original concoction called for green crème de menthe, crème de cacao, and cream or half and half. This green monster practically screams out for a remake. More
The Grasshopper is the original green monster drink, but this sweet and creamy dessert cocktail is reawakened with fresh mint. More
Cognac. To many, it's the ultimate in brandy. Now, you may ask why? Does it taste better? is it the expense? The time to make it? The grapes? The history? I'd say it's all of those things, and more. But what is cognac? How's it made, and what makes it special? More
When I mention brandy, you probably have an image already in your head. An older gentleman, sitting quietly in a leather armchair, perhaps smoking a pipe while listening to Brahms, swirling a snifter of brandy around in his hand. We think of brandy as an Old World after-dinner drink. And I have to say, it serves that purpose beautifully. But if you limit it to that, you're missing out on a lot. More
The Fish House Punch was first concocted at a gentlemen's fishing club in Philadelphia. The original recipe called for peach brandy. In this modern version, Brian Dressel of Midnight Cowboy in Austin, Texas replaces peach brandy with a mix of peach liqueur and cognac, and tames the rum-forward punch with green tea, maraschino liqueur, and citrus. More
Jamie Boudreau of Canon in Seattle tells us that many prominent figures in American history, such as George Washington, have also enjoyed this rum-forward punch. More
A fruit-filled punch that dates back to 1862. More
This drink from Jim Romdall at Seattle's Vessel shows what a few more refined spirits will do to a punch. VSOP Cognac and aged sherry are lightened by the apricot and lemon. More
The original Mudslide was allegedly invented during the 1950s at the Wreck Bar in the Cayman Islands. In its heyday the frozen drink was often made with a mix that came in a plastic bottle. Classy, right? It's time to elevate the Mudslide to the level of respectability and craftsmanship that it deserves. More
A celebration of the original adult milkshake with a cognac and rum foundation. More
This cocktail from Eastern Standard in Boston uses toasty cognac and rooibos tea to warm up the flavor of peaches. More
This variation on the Tom Collins is super-simple to make. It appeared in the 1946 Stork Club Bar Book by Lucius Beebe—we got this version of the recipe from Theo Lieberman of Lantern's Keep in NYC. More
This cocktail from Todd Maul of Clio in Boston is refreshing and complex, and would also be delicious served over ice. More
This winter sour from Jackson Cannon balances a boozy cognac edge with smooth maple syrup and Meyer lemon. Though there's as much maple as lemon, it's not at all sweet, just warming and aromatic. More
The Japanese Cocktail, curiously made with mostly French ingredients, is like an Old Fashioned with a rich and nutty twist. This classic cocktail included in Jerry Thomas' Bar-Tender's Guide in 1862. More

She was leaning on his muscular shoulder. Kissing his bare shoulders she asked him "Shyam you don't love me the way you used to right?"
"Oh come on Khushi, don't act childish, I want to do this once in my life, and please for god sake don't behave like a typical possessive wife".
Khushi sighed and closed her eyes. "I really love you sweetheart. I wish I could satisfy you all the time on bed".
"Khushi please, me sleeping with any woman doesnot decrease my love for you right?"
"It does shyam, it proves you are not happy with me. My body".
"Khushi god has given one life and I want to make full out of it".
"Have you ever thought how difficult it will be for me?"
"Oh come on babes, you know Arnav, don't you?"
"Ya I know him, but I have never imagined some day will come when I have to think about him the other way".
Shyam hugged the shattered khushi and said "it will be fun trust me. You will also get to experience something different. You never know you may like having s*x with him".
Khushi waved her hands and turned to get up frustrated.
"For God sake ASR grow up. I just cannot bare such a bore any more. It has been a month we had s*x I am frustrated. Well I have to do something about it na, so I have decided to spend a night with Shyam".
"Lavanya! Are you crazy? Do you know what are you talking about? Sleeping with some random guy and you are encouraging me to sleep with any other woman other than you? You have lost it totally".
"Tumko karna to kuch ata nahi, you might as well do this for me. If you don't want then don't come I will go. And that khushi is coming in the house, play Ludo with her if you don't want to do anything with her". "Waise bhi tum dono ki kafi achhi jamti hai Mr and Miss Bore".
"Lavanya, I respect that girl a lot ok? I just cant'"
"you cant even do to your wife so forget about doing it with her. She will be here at 8pm. The choice is your either enjoy or destroy your night.
Arnav is married to Lavanya
Khushi is married to Shyam
LAVANYA AND SHYAM are just CAMEOs

Weekend weather starts off wet and cold
Extreme cold has spread across the nation, coming up just short of reaching Florida. This has left the storm track right across the Gulf Coast, through Jacksonville and has brought us a cold January and February, wet too! Nearly 8" of rain has fallen across the area since the beginning of the year.
And this is how we will start off our weekend, cold and wet. Expect rains throughout the morning and early afternoon hours today. A few downpours may cross the area, but they will rapidly move through, leaving just moderate amounts. No flooding, but roadways will be slick. Timing for the rains will be from 8am to 2pm.
The good news?!? Sunday! Skies clear out after some early morning fog and temperatures jump! Well, a little bit, should see 70° which is very nice...
Make the Gaughan Gauge:
Saturday a "4".
Sunday a "9".

Shooting first: Fear and the 'stand your ground' law
For those who irrationally fear guns, evidence and data are irrelevant. The use of firearms is to be restricted and curtailed to the greatest extent legally possible regardless of the consequences - because guns are scary things. That impulse is the motivating force behind House Bill 135, to repeal the "stand your ground" law.
Thankfully, the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee removed the two worst parts of HB 135. One would have undone the "Ward Bird" law, which clarifies that merely brandishing a weapon is not a criminal use of deadly force. The other would have made people who use deadly force in self-defense civilly liable for injuries caused when protecting themselves from imminent harm. Still, the bill should not pass.
Testifying against the "stand your ground" legislation in 2011, Associate Attorney General Ann Rice said, "Historically, this committee's first question is 'What problem is this bill trying to address?' If you apply that question to these three bills, there is no problem that needs fixing."
Applying that standard to the law now would generate the conclusion Rice came to in 2011: "there is no problem that needs fixing." We do not have shootouts in bars and restaurants by gunslingers whom the law has emboldened. That is because responsible New Hampshire gun owners are not bloodthirsty desperados itching to kill, which is how so many legislators seem to imagine them. Repealing this law now would be a premature and irrational act based on fear and mistrust. It would be the legislative equivalent of shooting first, asking questions later. How ironic if the bil passes.

text: Less than 13K Sign Up for Nevada Health Exchange by Elizabeth Sheld 29 Dec 2013 post a comment View Discussion Share This: As of the December 23 deadline, fewer than 13,000 Nevadans had signed up for their state-run health insurance exchange. Half of those signed-up, have yet to pay. The target sign up number for the state is 118,000 by March 2014. "It will be challenging to meet the 118,000 goal but we are working to make sure Nevadans have all the insurance options available to them and have the ability to enroll," said exchange spokesman CJ Bawden. The Nevada Health Link Facebook page is littered with unhappy Nevadans. "Website is white screening. Phone number is saying it cannot connect," wrote one unhappy consumer. "Looks like a lot of people won't meet the deadline due to the program not functioning." Another wrote, "On hold over 51 minutes. Unable to log on … frustrated in Tahoe!" "That caught us by surprise," Jon Hager, executive director of the state's Silver State Health Insurance Exchange, told his board members earlier this month. The state is expecting a surge in Medicaid signups, as the new health care law expands eligibility requirements to allow single adults without children onto the program.

Is it just us, or has there been an undeniable sense of meh about the crop of red carpet looks we've seen so far this Awards season? Identikit waifs in nude, strapless dresses with an obligatory fishtail kick have become so par for the course that we can hardly be bothered to identify their ubiquitous Veronica Lake waved framed faces. While the scourge of the fashion police is admittedly terrifying, it begs the question, why would any actress want to dress in a way which ensures they will never stand out from the crowd?
The red carpet has traditionally been a platform for actresses to shine; for new faces to set the flashbulbs popping, for audiences to be mesmerised by these poster girls of glamour. But the pervasive need to be 'safe' from the spectre of worst dressed lists and the barrage of bitchy tweets has taken the heart out of the spectacle and replaced awe-inspiring with acceptable.
And it's not just the dresses it's our ideas about beauty too. Grazia's Beauty Director Liz Hambleton agrees, "Whilst there's nothing wrong with gorgeously groomed beige lips, beige eyes, beige skin and yes, even beige nails, we love to look to our celebrity counterparts to inspire. The Golden Globe Awards this weekend was yet another wash out make-up wise."
Of course the situation is completely understandable when you consider that stars these days are scrutinised 360˚in both metaphorical and literal terms. Captured in HD from all angles with their personal lives translating into supposed sartorial message ('Taylor's revenge dress,' 'Kristen's comeback dress'), it doesn't take a genius to see why A-listers were prefer to say nothing with their red carpet garb.
You could also draw broader parallels. Fashion risk averse actresses are emblematic of an era in which the idea that timeless = best has become dominant. As the most photographed generation of all time (on Facebook, Instagram, all day, all night) we are all much more self-aware of how our image will date for posterity (for sure, you only need to scan through your Facebook timeline to be confronted with your former daggy self). The truth is that few of us will ever look back and see the horrors our parents had lodged into their photo albums – no perms, leg 'o mutton sleeves or cystitis inducing flares for us. Instead we keep it chic and classic in hipster Breton tops, skinny black jeans and ageless leather jackets and just like the A-listers make sure we'll never be the butt of future jokes. Outside of the serious fashion crowd, the cult of classic has stopped us all taking risks– for the fear that one day we will regret it.
However without taking risks you can never triumph. Surely it is better to have a few fashion regrets balanced with some sensational fashion moments that capture the spirit of the time? Bjork, Elizabeth Hurley, Kate Moss – names that make you remember what a dress 'n' hairdo can do for an event (make it iconic) and for a career (make it iconic). So here's our advice for the stars nominated for this year's Oscars and indeed for all of womankind clinging to their Bretons: She who dares inevitably wins out. And don't wear beige.

Studio Photography Assignment #15: Scent of a Perfume
Behind the scene studio photography tutorial for pro Corner Assignment #15
I had a great opportunity to test-drive a new Hasselbald H4d camera with its huge 50 Megapixel digital back, thank to John Williams from Hotwire-digital.com. Knowing specification of the Hasselblad, I did not want to simply compare those 2 cameras: they are very different animals, with different purpose… besides the fact they both capture images :-)
Ease of use, camera controls, weight, focus speed and other "external" parameters is not interesting for me, as all of this parameters is highly subjective, both cameras has a big list of fans among professional photographers.
|Technical specification of Hasselblad H4D-50: Data sheet
|Technical specification of Canon 1Ds mark III: data sheet
What I was curious to see is an actual difference in the image quality, especially in macro and around macro world: this is most important for me as a product photographer.
What is image quality for me? First of all, amount of visible details, then sharpness of those details and then dynamic range of the image. The way lens and camera handles high pitch glare pieces was also interesting for me to compare. Obviously, lens is also responsible for most criteria, so we can call it a lens test as well.
Hasselblad had 120mm F4 HC macro lens, Canon was wearing 100mm F2.8L IS macro.
Two very different object were photographed: one high contrast, high reflective jewelry piece and a live flower, it's full of pollen stamen in particular. Exactly the same lighting and shooting distance were used for both cameras.
First, we shoot a sequence of different apertures to see how DOF is changed, but most important, how diffraction started to become an issue. This is very interesting to me, as many times I have go with as deep as possible DOF while working with various products, and knowing how much sharpness and details I will lose when closing aperture down is quite important to know.
Obviously, this was more like a lens test, as lens plays the main role in fighting (or helping) with a diffraction, but this is what I need as well: both cameras had best mainstream macro lens on them, and moist likely I would use the same HC 120mm lens on Hasselblad when (if) I decide to switch over to a Hasselblad system.
BTW, the super shallow DOF because of a larger physical sensor size, which always refers as an advantage of the medium format systems over 35mm ones, is not an advantage for me: Working about 5 years as a product photographer, I've never needed a super-shallow DOF. Instead, in most cases I need as super-deep DOF, and quite often I do a focus-stacking to get that desired deepness.
Second test was done by shooting both overexposed and underexposed images of that jewelry: high contrast, deep dark areas and bright silver makes already complicated shoot even more harder job for a camera to capture when under/overexposed.
For Hasselblad I was using Phocus 2.5.2 software to convert, adjust and generate lossless TIFF files, which was cut in Photoshop for this article. I found that Phocus works better in recovering dark or bright areas then Photoshop.
For Canon, all image manipulations were done in Photoshop CS5 and it's RAW converter. No other editing were applied: sharpness was set to "high" for Hasselblad, default sharpening for Canon files in Adobe RAW converter. This settings seem to match Hasselblad's "high" by the amount of sharpening. White balance was set to match flash color: K5700. No other white balancing was done: I want to use a default color from a camera RAW to see the color difference as well. But definitely, this test was not about the color reproduction.
The most significant difference, as we already know, is a sensor size. 22 v.s 50 mega-pixels is a huge difference. First I was thinking to minimize that difference to shoot closer to the object with Canon, so it will be more of the dynamic range test and contrast/sharpness and glare control test only, but than decided to do a real-life test. Megapixel count is a biggest advantage and the most expensive piece of the medium format sensor, and it won't be fair to exclude it from the test.
I've tried to use the same amount of light for a both cameras. "Tried" because H4D-50 was set to ISO50 and Canon was at ISO100, so at the same aperture I had to adjust lights accordingly every time we swap the cameras.
100 crop of above:
As wee see, a huge dynamic range of Hasselblad camera sensor make possible to recover almost everything. However, I've noticed that strange color casting around the edges and on a blurred highlighted areas (look at top right corner): I see greenish and purple spots. Have no idea what is that, but the same purple casting on a bright and green on a dark areas can be found on mot of the shots of the ring.
When I've tried to fix this with color and WB adjustments nothing seems to work. Lens correction was ON by default, and did not play any role on this color issue.
Therefore, a question to those who knows Hasselblad system better: what are that color casting? Is this because I've got such shiny object? In any case, I've never seen anything like this in Canon, regardless of how I develop Canon's RAW.
UPDATE: the answer is below
100% crop from above:
As you see, Canon did a great job as well, but it's narrower dynamic range is slightly visible: Hasselblad got a little bit more details recovered. No color issues here. Also, I've noticed Hasselblad handles glare a little bit better.
Hasseblad H4d-50:
100% crop of above:
Canon 1Ds MKIII:
100% crop of above:
This is where Hasselblad 16 bit sensor is truly shines! I had (the reason is gone) the image for hasselblad underexposed a little more then for Canon, but still was able to recover almost everything on the darkest part of the composition! No visible noise, and all the details are there.
Canon can't get even closer to this result: I've used as maximum as possible recovery (fill light + exposure compensation actually), stopped just before noise start to kill everything, but it was far away from the H4D achievements. Now I feel so sorry about my poor cheap Mark :-))
The idea was to see how image details will be changing when closing aperture down. Like I said previously, deep DOF is very important to me. Hasselblad HC 120mm F4 macro lens has maximum aperture of F45 versus F32 on Canon 100mm F2.8L IS macro lens.
The full image:
No sharpening was applied beside RAW converter: "High" for hasselblad in Phocus, As-is for Canon.
All photos below are 100% crops
Hasselblad H4D-50 with HC 120mm F4:
First of all (besides the resolution difference, which is so dramatic;-), the color:
Like I mentioned before, both sequences were not color corrected, only the same color temperature was set. Hasselblad shows very neutral colors, while Canon added too much saturation into the picture.
Amount of details are enormous on the image captured with 50 Mpx sensor: tiny 35mm sensor simply can't capture that many. Hasselblad is also softer, despite of sharpening was set to "high" in RAW converter: This is the way I want it to be, as we can always increase sharpness later in post production, but still have maximum of the details from RAW.
Regarding DOF:
Large sensor has shallow DOF compared to a smaller 35mm sensor at the same aperture, as expected. However, because it's 120mm lens has more room for aperture adjustments, it still wins the competition: while providing extremely shallow DOF when needed, it capable to deliver still full of detail image at almost completely closed iris, F41.
Canon is showing very good results as well, despite the fact that image was a little overexposed (see those orange stems). Even at F29, it is still good (not as good to be used though, I usually do not go beyond f22). Probably the same as HC 120 at F41, if only the resolution would be the same:-)
Overexposure on non-reflective object, the same flower
Canon MK3:
Again, Canon was able to recover the same (+-10%), I really do not see the difference) amount of overexposed tissue. It looks like highlights is not a big problem for Canon, but deep shadows are.
Ok, almost done here:-) Except the video. Yes, we got a video of the whole process, and I need one more day to finish it up. There will be mine and John's happy faces talking about the cameras, the shooting setup and, most interesting, a focus adjustments on Hasselblad when shooting tethered. This is one thing about Hasselblad's controls I definitely like: I can select any point on the image (all done from connected PC or Mac) and adjust focus to get the maximum contrast (which is an indication of a maximum focus), all controlled from a computer.
UPDATE: Here it the video:
Update 9/29/10
There is a company called Maxmax, they can remove AA filter from most of 35mm DSLR. There is a comparison before and after AA filter removal on maxmax.com
Quite interesting, is not it? There is a long debate about AA removal, enjoy all ten pages, if you can: AA discussion
The ultimate question, does new Hasselblad H4D worth it's price ($38K $25K for the 50 megapixel version, $40K for top of the line 60 megapixel one) has not been completely answered for me. From one side, it is definitely YES:
Amazing dynamic range, huge resolution, precise focus and camera's mechanics, lenses which are able to capture all that details: the new Hasselblad worth every penny Hasselblad's family asking for it. Having top-of the line equipment, camera with the most sophisticated and most recent technology involved should cost such money.
From other side, do I really need such camera for such money? Do I want it? Yes! Can I successfully continue to work without it? Yes! The most important question, I think, is "WHEN". When will I have to buy such or similar camera?
So far, working with my Canon, which is no doubt more faster and more convenient in everyday use (IMO) and 5(!) times less expensive then Hasselblad H4D, I never had a situation when client asked something like "can I have a larger image?", or "is there is a way we can see more details of our product?". So far I am able to deliver everything they want with my MarkIII. Yes, I shoot 3 exposure HDR for interior/exterior to get all the lighting range under control, I use focus stacking on some of my product shots, but it works, and it works great!
However, I do have goals I need to move towards, I know that at some point any 35mm DSLR won't be enough for me. I really hope I'll figure out that "point" sooner then later:-) I do not want to wait till my new big customer will tell me that image does not have all the details they where looking for and therefore they can't use it for the application they want. On other hand, I do not want to invest $50K (think about the lenses needed) in something which may not pay off its price withing one year. But I'll get there. Maybe even sooner then I am thinking now :-).
Hope this article was interesting, you can Like our facebook company page and subscribe to RSS feed: it is better stay updated. I am currently working on a blog post from our latest project, a children fashion photo shot, we got some amazing images :-)
Also, I would really love to hear your opinion, especially from those who worked with Hassleblad systems for a while. Again, many thanks to John from Hotwire-Digital.com, the place where we can Get the Best from the Experts.
On fredmiranda.com, where I have posted thois article, one good guy explained that color fringing I've seen on all Hasselblad's overexposed images of the ring: It called longitudinal chromatic aberration, or color bokeh.
Below a scan from Zeiss article about this issue. Whihc i understand, but still not like: little canon lens almost free from it. may be because it is little? Smaller glass element is less likely to have that chromatic abberation? Not sure. So, here is the article (the full document "DOF and bokeh explained" can be found here):
Want to make sure we have a correct exposured image, 100% of the same area from H4D: it is almost free from Chromatic Aberration, see yourself:
Thank you Alex for this excellent report. Thanks also to the many persons who have commented on the report. Very helpful, indeed. I found this posting while researching the Hasselblad 120mm Macro lens for possible purchase.
The Hasselblad 120 Macro Lens covered in your report has been superseded by "version II" of that lens. I strongly suspect that the new lens was introduced to correct the spherical aberration issues you reported at close range. I am considering buying a used original version of the lens, which is the same as the one you tested. Does anyone know whether the digital color fringing correction now provided in both Phocus and Lightroom 4 would substantially correct or eliminate this problem as part of the raw conversion process? I do not know whether or not DAC (Digital Aberration Correction) was present in Phocus version 2.5.2.
1Dmk# is very good so are all tghe 1000 x photographers on the street any time making rather good pictures
what proffesionals like is not a good photo bud the best photo and most of the time this is about the details shown
so buy yourselfs asap a Hasselblad if you like to stay in the business selling photo's either find a new proffesion
sports photographers and papparatzi are having a busines about shooting pictures not photo's so this is a different story Hassy hates
So that is why your believed hassy released DSLR's ? lol.
Thanks for this amazing and great information
I'm a 1Ds Mark III owner
That camera has been and still is serving me very well. It's built like a tank and shoot like a Canon (was that a pun? I dunno)
I've often wondered what difference would it make shooting with a Hasselblad.
Done some research, and I found that what I like the most about those cameras is the dynamic range they can handle. I guess that what separates Medium format and 35mm (both digital of course), and that, to me, is worth the high price
I appreciate you saying up front you don't care about "external" considerations. What you don't say is that you're basically testing the sensor ONLY. The fact that the Hasselblad has more chromatic aberration than a $1k L-series lens is a HUGE deal. Canon excels with its glass and omitting this consideration isn't 'external'. (The lens you used has an Ultra-Low diffraction element.) I also wish you would take into effect this was a rigged match. How much influence over the tests and setup did the Hasselblad rep have? This reminds me of a late-night must-have-product infomercial. Everyone I know agrees the back is second-only to the lens in overall image quality. The items that were actually tested seem to be 1: remote on-demand focus (a niche feature at best) and 2: bit-depth of the raw image. Finally, those external considerations don't seem so external really. Yes, a 50-60 megapixel sensor is a sexy novelty, but when you have to compare a polished elegant, weatherproof, rugged $6k workhorse to a quirky, LOUD lab-queen that weighs in at $60k; I'm sorry, I'll wait another few years and pick up a 60MP Canon body with the interest I make on the $60,000 I'm not spending today.
Well, lens can be replaced with another, but AA filter on sensor not:-)
Now I shoot with canon 5D and Hasselblad H1 and PhaseOne P25+ back: both cameras are 22Mpx, but the image quality … you need to see yourself. large sensor, ISO50 and absence of AA filer gives a huge different IN STUDIO.. Where weather proof and speed is not needed.
Canon/Nikon – best for outside, MF – for sterile studio inside:-)
Thank you for stopping by!
JP It's kinda like driving a Chevy and coveting a Rolls Royce. While I'm not circulating in the thin air of professionals like all you guys I have a canon mk 3 and don't really have too much of a clue as to how to use it to the best advantage. In the hands of a PhD a scalpel is useless albeit the bearer is a doctor. Same here (I know I know again with the analogy,) I'm an amateur with a canon mk 3 – doesn't make me a photograher.
Well, I have a different vision of such comparison: rally made Subaru and formula one car. Each one the best it what it was created for and the price difference is the same.
What is was trying to drag race both, shoulder to shoulder:-)
Was the lack of live view on the H4D a problem for you? I use this all the time for macro/tilt-shift pictures (mostly in the field) as my eyesight is nowhere near good enough to just use the viewfinder. I think this is something that is lacking in all of the MF digital choices right now and the LCD on back of the H4D was not very good as I recall.
I shoot tethered in studio, and H4D has a live view on a monitor and I can tune focus and compose a shoot from a computer. But on a field, having LV (especially for macro) can help a lot, I agree.
Hi Alex and all,
Thanks for taking the time to do this comparison and for the comments and other contributions.
I am currently near to investing in an H4D – the new(-ish) 31 MP version (currently own Canon 1D MkIV and 5D MkII). I actually don't need more pixels. For me one of THE major arguments for looking at the 'Blad is simply the format.
Before digital I had a superb Contax 645 which I quickly sold when I bought my first digital camera (the original 1Ds). Much of my work is portraiture (corporate mostly). After 8 years I'm hating more and more the 24×36 frame proportions. Just too long (or thin). Of course I could 'think' 645 when shooting 24×36 and crop in post-prod, but it's just not the same. I'm developing a phobia that's stifling me. I just want to see differently !
Now is that worth the $10k + $6k of extra lenses ? I'm pretty much convinced !
Alex, i dont think a client would tell me that jeje, what i was trying to say is that in the enviroment where i work and i think all over the world also , we had to deal with the "new guys with digital cameras" when digital photography came out strongly, and i think we somehow for a period of time lost some clients who wanted to try with the new cheaper guys untill those clients understood that is the photographer and not the camera. I work in Ecuador, a very small country with a medium small for commercial photograhy market, i do advertising and some fashion work , so that is why i am really thinking to do the jump from mark3 to H4, i know that the images i shoot depends on my skills and photographic experience but if you think marketingwise that is the way to keep one or two steps ahead form my competitors.
i have benn watching some of your videos, congrat, they are very ilustrative, keep going
Ok, I see, it make sense. In any case more resolution and details will give you more freedom in work. Which is always good:-)
Thank you!
i am a canon mark 3 user, and very happy with results, now 2 things: 3 months ago my client came into the studio and said to me….ohhh i own the same camera ….. then i understood that i really should go H4 soon, and you know guys… i really want to own one before i die, isnt that any photographers dream?
thanks jp
Well.. What would you do if your next client will own H4? :-) Owning a camera and producing good photography is more far from each other then we could think, IMO.
As for a dream as a photographer… My dream is to own a world best photography studio:-)
All the best,
Hi Alex, we work with H3DII 39MP and the Canon 5DII. The highlight recovery, the bigger dynamic range and the details in the shadows for me is more important than the megapixels.In the end it is a matter of working with the tool you need and you can actually afford, high end shooters can easily buy an H4D and amortize the investment in a period of time just think how much a high end shooter earns doing a catalog for a worldwide clothing store or a worldwide campaign, while other shooters who have more modest gigs can amortize the investment of 1ds MKIII based in their income. Take care … from cologne, dirk
Yes, all else being equal, smaller lenses are slightly less likely to have that problem. However, you've confused the smaller and larger lens, here. The Canon is much larger than the Blad 120mm f4 Fujinon lens. It's a 100mm f2.8, that's an optical path 36mm in diameter (100mm / f2.8) and looking at the design, maybe 115mm long. The Blad is only 30mm (120mm / f4) and pretty short, it looks like about 105mm long.
But you note I said "slightly". That's obvious, because the larger Canon lens is dramatically outperforming the smaller Blad lens. So, why "slightly"? Why does the size of the lens have little or nothing to do with either lateral or longitudinal CA (chromatic aberration)?
I'll try to keep this simple… Generally, longitudinal CA happens because the CA of different kinds of glass, each separating the spectrum differently (a characteristic known as "dispersion") are being played off against each other. This lets the lens designer get the CA to cancel out at the focal plane, eliminating lateral CA (the kind that software can fix, unfortunately) but it tends to exacerbate the the longitudinal CA. The thicker the lens elements are, or the farther they are apart, the worse this lateral/longitudinal trade-off is. Thicker elements enable more CA correction, but the more lateral CA you correct, the worse the longitudinal CA gets. The Blad has a very unusual design, the elements are both thick, and very far spaced. All 9 elements (the individual glass lenses that make up what we call "a lens") are isolated, and it's totally asymmetric, the front part of the lens looks nothing like the rear, so the rear can't really help correct the CA of the front. This type of design means that every single lens element gives you four "degrees of freedom" in the design, the curve and location of both the front and rear surfaces. So, 9 elements gives you 36 parameters to tune, trying to squeeze every last drop of sharpness out of the lens.
The Canon 100mm f2.8 IS is an entirely different design. Literally, they're about a quarter century apart, the Blad Fujinon looks like a 1985 design, the Canon looks like today. It has 15 elements, but four are flat, don't contribute to the CA situation at all, and only serve to provide the IS. Of the 11 that are left, 6 are thin, and cemented together in pairs, making their CA cancellation very effective both for lateral and longitudinal CA. But gluing two elements together means giving up two of those "degrees of freedom". The lenses have to mate, the front curve of one has to snuggle into the rear curve of the other. The front surface of the one is also located against the rear surface of the other. Two lenses, 6 degrees of freedom, instead of 8. Canon has two more elements than Blad, but burns up all the extra degrees of freedom in the process of killing the longitudinal CA.
Very interesting information. Thank you.
Those things you are explained confirms my thoughts: The whole Hasselblad system (this may be true for any MF camera) was created to deliver maximum resolution images, trading in at some degree the rest parameters, like CA, etc. Meaning studio environment with controlled lighting is preferable place to work with it.
Canon is more like everyday horse: you can shoot products in a studio, Afghanistan warriors and fashion show with the same success.
concerning chromatic aberration, you are right when you say that the bigger the lens diameter, the greater is the effect. Indeed, if you reduce the iris (increase f/stop number) in the Hassy lens, the effect decreases.
hope to have been usefull ;-)
thanks for sharing your fantastic tuts, keep up the good work.
Brilliant comparison!

Krakow, Poland-based duo Bart Zimny and Andrzej Pawlikowski are developing mini battery-powered sensors called Clime. These gizmos are supposed to be able to measure things like temperature, humidity, light, motion, CO2, pressure, and color. And setup appears to be as simple as sticking a Clime sensor to a surface and letting it communicate all of its handy environmental readings to the related app via Bluetooth 4.0.
Here's their vision: Leave a sensor outside and let it adjust your thermostat when it detects temperature changes. Add a motion-sensing Clime to your washing machine and receive an alert on your phone when the cleaning cycle is complete. Let a Clime sensor keep track of ambient light and trigger your fixtures to turn on when it gets dark outside. Each sensor should last for up to 1.5 years before needing a new battery.
The team clearly has big plans for Clime -- including third-party integrations and IFTTT compatibility -- but they aren't quite there yet.
Right now, you can register for updates on this self-funded project, including the availability of Clime sensors for preorder. Zimny and Pawlikowski focused on affordable home automation with Clime and expect to start shipping their sensors in October 2014 to the US ($15), the UK (£12), and Europe (€15).
That's a great price, but I'm fairly certain that scattering several of these small sensors around my house would end badly. I'm a little foggy on how these devices stick to things and how well they stay in place. At least at $15 a pop, I wouldn't feel too bad if my dog eats one -- or several.
Clime sensors remind me of Dropcam's $29 Tabs sensors designed to measure both movement and motion -- just with more potential applications. They also offer a lot of the extra features that come with Piper -- a $199 all-in-one security system that monitors both environmental and security triggers. But it's probably most similar to the $180 Netatmo Weather Station, an IFTTT-compatible product that can track everything from humidity to ambient noise. I've asked for a Clime sensor to review, so stay tuned to see if it can deliver a Netatmo level of information at a fraction of the price.

Expect early spring, if Phil is right
Each year thousands of fans from as far away as Australia and Russia attend the wildly popular event in this tiny western Pennsylvania town, depicted in the 1993 comedy "Groundhog Dog" starring Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell.
According to legend, if the rodent emerges from his hole and sees his shadow, six more weeks of freezing temperatures and snow are on the way.
This year, however, Phil did not see his shadow, meaning an early spring should be expected.
As temperatures hovered in the single-digits, the furry rodent was held aloft and relayed his prognostication to the Groundhog Club president who was dressed in a top hat and tuxedo.
"This is the most important weather prediction to be found anywhere on the globe," Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. Jim Cawley told the crowd.
Festivities began in the early hours when shuttle buses carried fans from nearby parking lots and the community to Phil's home on Gobbler's Knob to await the big event. A few hours later, after a fireworks display, Phil made his appearance.
"It doesn't matter where you are from, if you get the Groundhog Day gene it is a pilgrimage you are going to take," said Bill Cooper, a retired banker and member of the inner circle of the Groundhog Club, a non-profit that perpetuates the legend of Punxsutawney Phil.
"It breaks up the monotony of winter. It has existed for 127 years, not because it is the best meteorological science known to man but because it is fun," he added in a recent interview.
Residents in the town of 6,000 have been looking to groundhogs for weather predictions since 1887.
The rodent has seen his shadow the majority of the time, according to groundhog.org, which claims his predictions are nearly 100 percent correct.
"He is right almost all the time," said Cooper, although some weather agencies question his accuracy. "We figure if you want to argue the science, you have lost the point of the day. It is not something we are worried about."
A few years ago Phil's international fame sparked concerns about his well-being and led to calls to replace him with a robot.
Animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) questioned whether the rodent should be coaxed out his burrow, exposed to cameras and crowds and handled by humans. The Groundhog Club dismissed the suggestion as ridiculous and assured critics that Phil was fine.
For fans unable to make the trip to Punxsutawney there is a web link on www.groundhog.org. The festivities are also carried live on the Pennsylvania network PCN.
"It is a people event," said Cooper. "if you treat it that way you can have a lot of fun with it."

Painkiller Lyrics - Judas Priest
Review The Song (1)
[Glenn Tipton, Rob Halford & K.K. Downing]
Faster than a bullet
Terrifying scream
Enraged and full of anger
He's half man and half machine
Rides the Metal Monster
Breathing smoke and fire
Closing in with vengeance soaring high
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Planets devastated
Mankind's on its knees
A saviour comes from out the skies
In answer to their pleas
Through boiling clouds of thunder
Blasting bolts of steel
Evils going under deadly wheels
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Faster than a lazer bullet
Louder than an atom bomb
Chromium plated boiling metal
Brighter than a thousand suns
Flying high on rapture
Stronger free and brave
Nevermore encaptured
They've been brought back from the grave
With mankind resurrected
Forever to survive
Returns from Armageddon to the skies
He is the Painkiller
This is the Painkiller
Wings of steel Painkiller
Deadly wheels Painkiller

Kick Ass!! | Reviewer: Paul Hutchinson | 6/25/13
This song is one of my all time favorites. Brings back memories from a time almost forgotten. KK Downing and Glen Tipton are two of the all time best lead duo's (apart from Kerry King and the Late Jeff Hanneman may he Rest In Peace). And Rob Halford's voice in unmistakeable, truly one of the greatest frontmen of all time. If it could possibly be true, I am actually partial to the cover of this song that the late Chuck Schuldner of Death (May HE Rest In Peace also)did. It is one of my favorite Death performed songs, and possibly the BEST cover of ALL TIME! If you love this song, give Death's version a listen and you will probably be amazed.
