Q&A Digital Photography
David B. Brooks  |  Jan 13, 2015  |  0 comments
After more than 16 years since I began doing Digital Help, the questions have now become too few to continue to do the column. It has been an interesting and challenging time, with over 190+ columns dealing with why prints are too dark, the change from CRT monitors to LCD displays, and much more. There have been many conversations involved and I have enjoyed and been happy to get to know many of you.

Black & White, Film & Digital
George Schaub  |  Feb 24, 2014  |  0 comments
This issue is dedicated to digital techniques, but I feel it’s important to have a discussion on the differences and similarities between black and white film and digital photography. I do this for two reasons—the first is that I figure some of you may have made the transition from film to digital and have carried over some assumptions about how things work. The second is that even if you have never shot film you have probably been exposed to information passed on from film photographers about how things work. Either way, there are a number of matters at the heart of black and white photography that have changed, or at least should be looked at in a new light.
