A Tripod Without Legs A tripod is the go to device for photographers who want to stabilize their shots. The three adjustable legs do a great job at keeping a camera supported and in one position. However, these three legs create a huge problem when shooting in a small kitchen or busy restaurant. Let me share with you a piece of equipment that will stabilize your camera with no legs at all! The Manfrotto 131TC Tablemount Geared Column with Clamp is something that I bring with me when I know I’m shooting in a small kitchen or a busy dining room. The geared column raises and lowers using a smooth geared crank. Clamping to a table is impractical for portrait, sports, or landscape photography, but for food photography this is an amazing tool! Above shows the difference between a tripod and the 131TC adjusted at the same height. If you are shooting on a restaurant’s table, place a washcloth around the table’s edges before clamping the 131TC in place. What I like: What could use improvement:

PENTAX DSLRs Rolands Fotokurs: Schärfentiefe Ähnlich wie sich die (in der vorigen Lektion besprochene) Verwacklung kreativ nutzen lässt, indem Teilbereiche des Bildes scharf und andere verwischt erscheinen, kann man auch die Schärfe kreativ beeinflussen und je nach Situation beispielsweise den Hintergrund verschwommen erscheinen lassen, während das Hauptmotiv scharf erscheint. Möglich wird dies durch möglichst geschickte Beeinflussung der Schärfentiefe. Als Schärfentiefe wird der Bereich vor und hinter der Scharfstellebene bezeichnet, der auf dem Foto noch als scharf wahrgenommen wird. Das Bildbeispiel links (das manchen Lesern dieser Homepage schon von meiner Rom-Seite bekannt ist) soll dies verdeutlichen: Während die Tauben (einigermaßen) scharf abgebildet sind, liegt der Hintergrund schon nicht mehr im Bereich der Schärfentiefe, sondern ist leicht unscharf. In diesem Falle ist dies so gewollt, um die Tauben plastischer vor dem Hintergrund erscheinen zu lassen. Maßstäbe kennen wir z. Im Makrobereich kehrt es sich übrigens um.
