| nikon d500 alternative: The Photographer's Cookbook Lisa Hostetler, 2016 In the late 1970s, the George Eastman Museum approached a group of photographers to ask for their favorite recipes and food-related photographs to go with them, in pursuit of publishing a cookbook. Playing off George Eastman's own famous recipe for lemon meringue pie, as well as former director Beaumont Newhall's love of food, the cookbook grew from the idea that photographers' talent in the darkroom must also translate into special skills in the kitchen. The recipes do not disappoint, with Robert Adams' Big Sugar Cookies, Ansel Adams' Poached Eggs in Beer, Richard Avedon's Royal Pot Roast, Imogen Cunningham's Borscht, William Eggleston's Cheese Grits Casserole, Stephen Shore's Key Lime Pie Supreme and Ed Ruscha's Cactus Omelette, to name a few. The book was never published, and the materials have remained in George Eastman Museum's collection ever since. Now, nearly 40 years later, this extensive and distinctive archive of untouched recipes and photographs is published in The Photographer's Cookbook for the first time. The book provides a time capsule of contemporary photographers of the 1970s--many before they made a name for themselves--as well as a fascinating look at how they depicted food, family and home, taking readers behind the camera and into the hearts and stomachs of some of photography's most important practitioners. |

| nikon d500 alternative: In Camera: How to Get Perfect Pictures Straight Out of the Camera Gordon Laing, 2020-03-05 With amazing low-light capabilities, incredible definition, intelligent autofocus and a host of other features, digital cameras have now become so powerful that they have left their users behind. Most photographers can take competent shots in a range of conditions, or fix imperfect exposures in Photoshop or Lightroom, but very few have the skill to push their cameras to the limit and capture the perfect shot, under all conditions, with no post-processing required. In Camera is the perfect way to take your photography to that level; to master your camera, understand light, exposure and composition, and make amazing photographs, whatever your camera, without cheating after the event. One hundred of Gordon's beautiful photos are given with his own expert commentary; full settings and camera details are included, and a host of tips and tricks let photographers of any level learn something from every example. The shots are taken with a wide range of cameras, and the emphasis is on getting results by improving your own skills, not wasting money on expensive equipment. |

| nikon d500 alternative: Photographier avec son Nikon D7500 Vincent Lambert, 2018-02-08 Successeur du D7200 dans la famille des reflex experts, le Nikon D7500 se présente comme un mini D500, appareil professionnel Nikon au format de capteur DX : on y retrouve de nombreuses fonctionnalités héritées du D500 (autofocus performant, mesure de lumière intelligente, rafale à cadence élevée..,), dans un boîtier plus compact, plus léger et moins cher. Bien qu'il soit plus simple d'approche qu'un D500, beaucoup d'aspects et de fonctionnalités de ce très beau reflex peuvent rester déroutants pour le photographe, même en dépit, parfois, d'une lecture assidue du mode d'emploi ! Tout l'enjeu de cet ouvrage est de vous apprendre à dompter la puissance et la richesse des configurations de votre D7500 pour en tirer le maximum, en fonction des situations, de vos goûts d'utilisateur et de votre envie d'aller plus ou moins loin dans sa personnalisation.

Il propose, dans ce guide richement illustré, une approche très concrète du Nikon D7500 - balayer ses fonctions pour en apprécier les intérêts sur le terrain et pouvoir choisir au mieux ses réglages -, et partage ainsi son expérience de plusieurs mois d'utilisation de l'appareil. |
