Welcome to Cascable

As you probably know we have a show called “digital classroom” we release several reviews, tips videos etc throughout the year plus app 10 live streams under that label.

The original idea was to do it for a year, it’s a very costly show to run.

But we got so many great responses we didn’t want to stop. So we needed partners.

Of course you already know our friends from BenQ, Calibrite and Rogue all companies we already worked with and I loved their products.

Today I can officially announce a brand new partner and supporter of digital classroom : cascable.

Cascable is an app I’ve been using for over a year now and makes it possible to shoot tethered via USBC or wireless to my ipad. It works super fast, is incredibly stable and has some cool extra features for different kind of scenarios.

It also makes it possible to shoot directly to different locations, including online services.

Seeing i have been promoting the heck out of their software (it’s really awesome) ever since I started using it I’m very happy to now welcome cascable to our family of supporters.

If you have an iOS device and want to tether without any issues and want stability and speed… Check out cascable.

And combine it with one of our #iqwire tethercables.

DP review is shutting down…

In case you didn’t know one of the largest photography communities is being closed down.

If you are a DP review member it’s maybe wise to save your data.

Personally i think it’s the wrong way this is done.
For years they have made money from adds and members at least have the decency to archive the forum not delete it. Or give it to the community or sell it. But i dont think you can just delete everything.

There are posts there done by people we lost in the mean time, people that grew to become famous photographers and there is a boat load of information there. Destroying that is absolutely unnecessary for a company that owns so many servers and money.

In an online world there should be something that protects communities like those from being wiped out.

The rogue snoot in action

The rogue magnetic system is absolutely awesome and together with the flashbender it gives you a total solution that fits in almost every bag

The most recent addition is the snoot. A super flexible snoot that in speedlights can be used in 8 different ways.

Today some images I shot with the snoot and as a fill in light I’m using the dome with a blue gel.

Model : Claudia

You can order all rogue products via www.rogueflash.nl and www.rogueflash.com

Aisha a new model

Some results from the testshoot with Aisha.
She will be joining us as workshop model soon 😉

Testshoots are short 1-2 hour sessions in which we try different things that will give me a good idea about what would happen during a workshop.

When I’m looking for workshop models I actually prefer non experienced model. Not that a pro model can’t give you great results. But during workshops I strongly feel it’s an added layer of learning when you work with a starting model. Seeing most people have problems directing the model. (including me ;))

Ofcourse using our clickpropsbackdrops 😉
