histories of German photography industry

nelsonpa 24.09.14, 13:35

I'm trying to locate studies of the Germany photography (camera, lens, film, digital) companies. In particular, I'm looking for studies of the companies (not necessarily published by the companies themselves) and how they managed international competition in both the pre and post WWII era. I'm looking for historical studies, studies of business dynamics as well as the political economy of the industry.

I've written about the Japanese and US industries but have been looking (unsuccessfully) for works on the German industry in either German or English for some time now. Your help would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Hiring food photographers worldwide!

Andrea Rosen 28.08.14, 13:40

My name is Andrea and it's great to see so many beautiful photos of food from around the world! I am looking for freelance photographers for hire to shoot home chefs that throw dinner parties in every major city worldwide. Would you be interested in freelancing for us, or know someone that would be?

The production is simple - we don't require any artificial lighting to be used, just the natural light and lighting already within the location. All photo shoots take place within the city limits, as we want our photographers to network with their community and gain more business for themselves as well.

Please see more information about the company below. If you are interested, I'll send you some more information about payment as well as our photography guide to your email address. Please email me at andrea@eatwith.com for more information or if you are interested (include your location and Flickr URL so I know it’s you!).

Many thanks -- I hope to have you join our EatWith family!

Andrea Rosen

Photos for Painting

gazsta 27.07.14, 14:29

Welcome Gaz
I think you can ask for permission to photographers to create your paintings but as Ruud says this is a photography site and I do not think that your works are adequate with all due respect!

What's the best photograph that you have taken?

kamalika123 24.07.14, 07:42

Here's mine. This is a small village in Tamil Nadu where they had to walk for miles to ensure that their families did not go thirsty over the day. This had been the norm for a while when they realized that it did not have to be like this forever. They were funded for water connections at home...yes within their own houses and the joy was boundless. You can see that from the image here. http://m-lp.co/1pIY4a2

Read the f......... manual

Deleted user 27.06.14, 19:26

Hallo Rob,
I so agree, too.
Each night I sleep with the books from Scott Kelby under my pillow.
I see more and more fotos made by mobile or like that.

The result is very very bad.
We do not need statements like: very nice flower, it looks like nice holliday and so on.....
One statement of the quality is better than 1000 silly comentaries!!!!!!!
Lets do it together on a higher level.
gr. Jürgen

Image Sharpness Problems

Maria Mylona 09.10.08, 13:04

It can also be that your camera is focusing wrong. You can check that pretty easily. Use a ruler and and put it flat on a table and focus on for instance 25cm mark. If the camera is focusing right you should see that the focus is on the 25cm mark, is it on the 24 or the 26 mark, then you need to get your camera and lense for service.
