From the flagship X-Pro 1 and X-T1 models downwards, Fujifilm’s X series of
interchangeable lens cameras seek to target a broad range of price points and enthusiasts. The new X-A2 premium interchangeable lens compact with flip up screen to enable easier ‘selfies’ is the affordable option, and, particularly, in its brown leather-like iteration (silver version also available), a real eye catcher. The X-A2 has the advantage over rival CSCs of its physically larger APS-C sensor, here providing 16.3 megapixels. For those adopting the X system for the first time there’s the advantage of the bundled 16-50mm Mark II kit lens in matching silver, suitable for both landscape and portraiture. A further bonus is the compositional LCD screen that tilts through 175° to offer a wide degree of creative flexibility. The camera retails for a suggested £499.99 (in Currys currently at a bargain £399). Bolstering its X series camera support, the brand has also recently announced a trio of lenses. These are the Fujinon XF16-55mm f/2.8 R LM WR lens, available now at a suggested £899.99, the XC16-50mm II lens and the XC50-230mm II lens. The ‘WR’ of the 16-55mm zoom denotes that it is weather resistant – hence offering a great match for Fujifilm’s weather-resistant X-T1. Also offering weather and dust resistance and well worth checking out at the show is its expansive Fujinon XF50-140mm f2.8 R LM OIS WR zoom. This offers a constant
bright f/2.8 aperture throughout its focal range to deliver beautiful ‘bokeh’, while the length of the lens barrel also remains constant throughout the entire zoom range. The world’s first Triple Linear Motor also delivers fast and quiet auto focusing. Suggested retail price is £1249.99. The Photography Show is further providing photographers with the prefect opportunity to quiz Fujifilm about its newly revealed future lens release roadmap (as shown), detailing forthcoming X Mount lenses compatible with its CSC line up. Freshly announced are: the XF120mm f/2.8 R Macro telephoto lens to arrive in 2016 and the XF35mm f/2 R, a compact and lightweight standard focal length lens, arriving latter half of this year. We also get the promise of a 1.4x Teleconverter for its XF50-140mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR, XF120mm f/2.8 R Macro and XF100-400mm, arriving in 2016. www.fujifilm.co.uk

The brand new OM-D EM-5 Mark II builds on the precedent set by the earlier
E-M1 and E-M5. At £899 SRP for the body, it continues the system’s ethos of being as compact yet as powerful as possible for the target audience of photo enthusiasts. The target group is 30+ male and female photography enthusiasts but also those keen on movies. The concept behind the Mark II is ‘freedom to tell your spectacular stories.’ With a definite shift towards CSC – stats suggest that 30% of the interchangeable lens camera market will be CSC by 2016 – the E-M5’s successor comes with a better shutter mechanism, while being dust proof, splash-proof and now freeze proof. “This is a camera for people who want to get up in the morning when it’s raining,” suggests Olympus. As you’d expect of an OM-D, it also features 5-axis Image Stabilisation, to deliver a claimed ‘heavily improved’ video capability. With HDMI output and increased bit rate, it’s now possible to record in variable frame rates from 24fps to 60fps. The LCD also now swivels as well as ‘merely’ tilting and boasts touch screen control. More exciting still is a 40MP high resolution shot mode described as ‘breakthrough’. This captures and combines 8 successive images to produce one ultra high-resolution file, taking 2.5 seconds to process and deliver the shot. Ideal for commercial photographers shooting in the studio and quicker than a Hasselblad, says Olympus, the big claim is that it’s also better for detail than many full frame cameras. The E-M5 additionally features Wi-Fi control, enabling a smartphone to be used as a remote control, 1/8000s mechanical shutter plus 2.36 million-dot eye-level electronic viewfinder (EVF). What’s more a new flexible FL-LM3 mini flashgun is bundled with the camera for ultra convenience and maximum clarity of results. A whopping four body + lens kit options are available: with 14-42mm (at £1099), 12-50mm (£1099), 14-150mm (£1249), 12-40mm Pro f/2.8 (£1499).

TG-860: an easy choice of Tough camera
The widest wide angle lens in its compact class at 21-105mm? Check. More than one shutter release button, for ease-of-capture and simpler ‘selfies’ no matter which way is up? Check. A 3-inch tilting LCD screen so you will also be able to get any angle on the action? That too. Additionally the latest 16 megapixel crushproof, freezeproof, waterproof and shockproof compact boasts Wi-Fi enabled remote control via smartphone. On sale now, it comes with a free six-month warranty extension for anyone signing up online for MyOlympus membership. Extras to grab when you purchase a TG-860 include a hands-free CSCH-123 Sport Holder, PT-057 Underwater Case, slip-proof CSCH-124 Silicone Jacket, CSCH-121 Soft Camera Case and CHS-09 Floating Handstrap. Sample all of the above, plus the Olympus Pen camera series, including the latest E-PL7 aimed at fashion bloggers, by heading over to Olympus’ spectacular stand. Speakers include Damian McGillicuddy, who will be shooting live on stage, Steve Gosling, Edmond Terakopian, Ben Russell, Lindsay Dobson, John Nassari, R. Cleveland Aaron, Jeremy Hunter, Robert Pugh, Mick Hutson, Ed Farrelly and Nicholas Goodden. Olympus technicians will also be offering free lens and camera body cleaning for Olympus users, subject to availability. www.olympus.co.uk
New accessories to partner
Introduced alongside the E-M5 MkII is an Arca Swiss compatible ECG-2 accessory grip, plus a newer version of its popular battery grip in the HDL-8, which features a headphone jack. Further add-ons include a self-powered, hotshoe-mounted EE-1 dot sight, plus PT-EP13 underwater case. In tandem with the E-M5 MkII, Olympus announced a new 7-14mm lens for this summer, plus a ‘Pro’ class 8mm fisheye eye lens with f/1.8 aperture in development, which, when released, will be the fastest on
the market, it claims. Also new from Olympus is an improved M.Zuiko Digital ED 14-150mm 1:4.0-5.6 II all-in-one lens. With weatherproofed, lightweight construction and compact size it’s being suggested as a perfect partner to the EM-5. That’s not the only new accessory this month: there’s a new flash for the OM-D series as well as the HLD-8 grip – so five new products in total – whilst the promotion offering a free HLD-7 grip worth £189.99 on buying an E-M1 now continues until March 31st. On top of this there’s a new firmware upgrade to download for the E-M1.

You might know Tiffen for its class leading filter ranges, but other products that sit
under its umbrella include the world famous Steadicam support, as well as tough-wearing Domke-branded camera bags. Add another name to the list in Lowel lights and it’s quickly apparent that Tiffen is fast becoming a one-stop solution. Distributor Swains might not be as familiar name to those outside the trade, but the distributor is a regular at the NEC each March. Sharing H61 with Tiffen, it will be showcasing the newest products to hit the UK market – including the Cactus V6 flash trigger, light emitting ‘Pixelstick’ and Lexar Hub and Workflow system storage options.
Anyone for Tiffen?
The Lowel lights range comprises the Lowel Blender, Lowel GL-1 and Lowel GL-Pro. Picking one to spotlight, the inventive pitch for the Lowel GL-1 Power LED at £499 is that it places Hollywood-style lighting in the palm of your hand. Designed for use handheld and originally devised with the wedding and events markets in mind, the tungsten light is further promised to be powerful, focusable and dimmable. With the high ISO capabilities of the current raft of DSLRs and CSCs allowing them to be utilised in lower light locations, the GL-1’s capabilities can eke out just the right amount of light required for the image being created, whether shooting up close or from a distance. Its versatility also makes it a choice for photographers looking to achieve light painting style effects. Steadicam is a very familiar name in the film industry, but now that increasing numbers of photographers are branching out into video capture on their DSLRs and CSCs, there is every reason why you might consider purchasing one yourself. Have a look at the Steadicam Smoothee for smartphones or action cameras, Steadicam Solo for DSLRs or camcorders and Steadicam Curve for GoPro-type products on the stand – there’s something in the range for everyone. Whether you just want to protect your camera lens or achieve a specific

Manufacturer Tiffen and distributor Swains can be found sharing a booth at stand H61, seeking to entice you with a selection of goodies of every photographic description…
Twice the gear, twice the excitementBe swayed by Swains
Another product imminently gracing the UK market and on display at the NEC is the Pixelstick (see more at www.thepixelstick.com), for use by photographers for producing light paintings. It’s comprised of 200 full colour RGB LEDS inside a lightweight aluminium housing. Needing to be seen at the show to be fully appreciated, a mounted controller reads images from an SD card and displays them, one line at a time, on the LEDs. Each LED then corresponds to a pixel in the image. In this way it’s possible to light-paint photo realistic images, abstract designs and animation into your long exposure and time-lapse photography. Suggested retail price is £329. Further products worth seeing on stand H61 include the Cactus V6 (www.cactus-image.com) and Lexar Hub and Workflow System (www.lexar.com/workflow). The Cactus V6 is a wireless flash transceiver that is notable for being the world’s first wireless trigger that controls the power of Canon, Nikon and Pentax system flashes all at the same time. The user simply selects the pre-installed flash mode on the unit to remotely control the flash power output of the selected flash model (as precisely as in 0.1Ev increments for some models). It can also directly control a Cactus RF60 wireless flash set to Slave mode and is compatible with practically all cameras that come with a standard hot shoe or female sync port connection. Lastly the Lexar line up of data hubs and workflow solutions is well worth photographers investigating – particularly if they want to safely and securely store all those thousands of images and video clips. Products include a choice of two four-bay reader and storage drive hubs, a selection of card readers, and two storage drives. Its innovative, modular design allows photographers to create a custom setup, while the high-speed performance lets you offload and back up your work, faster. Pick and choose the right combination for your needs, and take control of your workflow by heading to stand H61.
creative effect, Tiffen filters are long established in the market – having won Academy Awards – and again there is a broad range of options available. Showing at TPS are Tiffen’s Variable ND and XLE filters, as well as the Tiffen Blender/Attenuator, One Side Coated UVP and HT filters. You’ll want a rugged camera bag to put all of the above in, and here Tiffen can again help courtesy of its Domke camera bags. On display are its Next Generation
and Heritage line-ups. The former range’s shoulder, satchel, courier and messenger-type bags come equipped with all the bells and whistles you’d imagine, including the ability to customise inner compartments to suit your shooting style. Heritage bags meanwhile are the choice for photojournalists and street photographers, with the subtly hardwearing design the brand is renowned for. See more at www.tiffen.com

With its branding suggesting ‘I am different’, Nikon is encouraging you to
‘think outside of the box’ at The Photography Show. As well as checking out its brand new line up of class leading cameras and accessories, including D7200 and D810A DSLRs, it’s well worth dropping by stand E31/D31 to soak up advice from talks hosted on the Nikon School stage. Speakers include Kate Hopewell-Smith, renowned for her lifestyle and wedding photography, and Kirsty Mitchell, who has gained a cult following for her whimsical and creative Wonderland series. Brand ambassadors Mark Pain, John Wright, Mark Seymour and Bob Martin are also sharing advice with stand visitors, as will fine art fashion photographer Miss Aniela, landscape photographer Jeremy Walker and wildlife photographer Chris Gomersall.
Wi-Fi, NFC and GPS connectivity, leather grip and an SRP of £279.99. The S7000 meanwhile is being pitched as its slimmest and lightest superzoom at just 27mm thick’. The 16MP model costs £169.99. If you’re planning summer holidays you’ll also want to look at a couple of new ‘tough’ Nikons in the AW130 (yellow, above), designed to appeal to the adventurer, plus the S33, which is for family use. With the former the more heavy duty of the pair, use is down to a depth of 30 metres. The AW130 further offers a 5x optical zoom, freeze-proofing to -10°C, shock proofing against drops from a height of two metres, plus a 16MP CMOS chip for £279.99. The S33 (top left, in white) meanwhile has a 13MP CMOS sensor, is waterproof up to 10 metres and shockproof to 1.5 metres. With a 3x zoom it’s available in blue, pink, white or our favourite of canary yellow.
Gaze at Nikon’s star attractions The photo giant has already announced 14 major new products so far this year, including DSLRs and super zooms, all ready to be explored on its hard-to-miss interactive new stand E31/D31
stretching from 24-2000mm in 35mm terms, plus tilting 3-inch LCD, GPS, Wi-Fi and NFC connectivity, for £499.99. Among the other exciting Nikon compacts for you to examine at the show, latest additions include the 60x zoom, 16 megapixel P610, which also boasts a 5-stop VR anti-shake system, 400 shots battery duration, Full HD video, Wi-Fi and GPS capability, along with newly added NFC. Available in black or red, it’s priced at £339.99. Next up is the L840, offering an increased 38x optical zoom range, along with Wi-Fi, NFC and a tilt screen. This Full HD camera runs on AA batteries and comes in black, red or plum bodies for £209.99 SRP. The second instalment in the L-series duo is the L340, a UK exclusive model with 20MP CCD and 28x optical zoom. If you’re considering a new ‘superzoom’, how about the Nikon S9900, top right, which boasts a retro
titanium silver or classic black design, vari-angle screen,
30x optical zoom,
Plenty new to touch ‘n’ try
In terms of new kit to touch and try, there’s plenty. January saw Nikon launch three sub-£100 Coolpix point and shoots in the S3700, S2900 and L31 to coincide with the CES event in Las Vegas. February saw the brand add to that tally to coincide with Japan’s CP+ show, with a further seven compacts in the marginally more high end L340, L840, P610, S9900, S7000, AW130 and S33 – the latter two being ‘toughened’ models – along with a variation of its acclaimed D810, this time with an ‘A’ suffix to indicate its target audience of star-gazing astro photographers. Nikon believes that with the D810A, photographers will be able to capture the true colours of nebulae. The camera retails for £2999.99, with May availability.

Made available in time for the show is the new 24.2 megapixel D7200, below, an APS-C sensor DSLR announced at the start of the month, available as a body only option for £939.99 or with 18-105mm VR zoom for £1119.99 all-in. The camera comes with what’s described as a ‘pro-grade’ AF system, 3.2-inch LCD, plus NFC and Wi-Fi connectivity for the sharing of shots. Also new, and useful for those who want to record crisp audio when shooting video with their DSLR is a ME-W1 Wireless Microphone at £239.99, which can function from up to 50ft away. Likewise available now is the equally new Coolpix P900, above, sporting a whopping 83x optical zoom

See Canon’s new camera line up in person on stand B11
Four new DSLRs, only its second ever CSC, plus a full frame lens, two printers, a new IXUS and a PowerShot ensure that visitors have plenty of reason to drop by Canon stand B11
As well as the promise of interactive shooting experiences and talks
from photographer ambassadors including Jeff Ascough, Phil Coats, Danny Green and Simeon Quarrie, the big draw at The Photography Show is every sense is undoubtedly Canon’s new pair of 50 megapixel DSLRs, a further couple of 24MP entry level models, plus only its second-ever small format system camera in the EOS M3. The brand also promises to have its EOS 7D Mark II on display, along with its range of Pixma and large format printers on the stand, where visitors can further explore ‘irista’, its secure online space for storing images, and see how such images can be used for the creation of HD photo books. Claiming to ‘break the boundaries of 35mm sensors’, the EOS 5DS and 5DS R are two full frame DSLRs seeking to deliver on that promise via their whopping 50.6 megapixel sensors. The ‘R’ variant seeks to tease out a tad more detail via a low pass cancelation filter. ISO has been kept to a basic range of 100-6400, manually expandable to a broader ISO50 and 12800. Visible through the viewfinder are three in-camera crop modes: 1.3x, 1.6x (still delivering 19MP shots) and 1:1. Other key selling points include a 3.2-inch LCD, 5fps burst shooting, weather resilient magnesium alloy body and 61-point AF system with 41 cross-type points. There is a wait until June for both DSLRs – and so time for you

Also new is a compatibly weather proofed full frame wide angle zoom in the EF 11-24mm f/4L USM. SRP is £2,799.99, and it’s available now. Canon’s second ever CSC in the EOS M3 is also playing the numbers game in featuring a 24.2 megapixel APS-C sensor, 49-point AF and latest gen Digic 6 processor. The new model, arriving two years after the original EOS M, a veritable age in digital camera years, features a touch screen, here tilting up to 180° and down by 45°, plus Wi-Fi and NFC. As with its forebear, the pitch here is ‘the power of EOS, only smaller’. Availability is from April at £599.99 SRP. Almost easy to over-look given the above big news are two more
affordable DSLRs in the EOS 750D (£599.99) and 760D (£649.99 body only); the latter being the more enthusiast-targeted of the two. As with the equally new EOS M3, both DSLRs feature 24.2 MP CMOS sensor and Digic 6 processor and come with a vari-angle LCD. The 760D is said to be the one for budding filmmakers, courtesy of a raft of additional creative movie modes, including HDR and miniature effect, and this model also differentiates itself via Wi-Fi and NFC. There is a further sales option for the 750D that witnesses it twinned with an EF-S 18-55mm IS
STM zoom for £689.99 all-in. There are now, incredibly, 15 cameras in the current EOS line up. Heavyweight releases aside, those pocket compacts also keep coming: a new PowerShot in the SX 410 IS and IXUS 275 HS join the six PowerShots and IXUS’s announced at the start of January. Head over now to the Canon stand to get ‘hands on’ at the show.

There are three different size tripods available in a dozen different colours, featuring either aluminium or carbon fibre tubing and with weight capacities up to 14kg.

Vü filters
New to the MAC Group portfolio are US-designed Vü filters. The range comprises the best in UV, Polarization, and Neutral Density filters for filmmakers and photographers. Utilising only the highest quality materials, innovative coating processes, and patented technologies to create its products, Vü Filters are available in two series. The Ariel circular screw-in filters boast white balance multi-coating described as ‘revolutionary’ for improved light transmission. UV and Circular Polarizing filters are available in sizes from 37mm to 82mm.The Sion series filters utilise the same high quality finishes but add a Flat Wave Overcoat, a specially developed optical coating that gives the filter’s surface a ‘smoother-than-glass’ finish, making filter maintenance and care much easier. In addition to UV and Circular Polarizing filters, the Sion range also includes Variable Neutral Density filters that block light between 1-5 stops, plus fixed Neutral Density filters in 1, 2, 3 and 10 stop versions. In addition 100mm square ND and ND grad filters plus a 100mm filter round off the range. Vü filters will be launched at The Photography Show.

is busy working with the factory to create ever-innovative new product ranges, including both tripods and heads, to help Benro broaden its appeal even further. You’re in the right place at the right time, however, as these new products are making their global debut at The Photography Show. As the world of imaging keeps evolving and more photographers are keen to exploit the capability for shooting moving images as well as shooting stills, Benro is listening and adapting, as the functions offered by tripods designed for photography are very different to those needed for shooting video. You’ll be pleased to hear that it already has an impressive range of tripods and heads designed with shooting moving images in mind – tripods that feature rapid levelling capability, combined with heads that offer super smooth fluid pans and tilt movement, both helping to create the best quality video footage.
Induro
MAC Group’s premium support brand, Induro tripods are targeted at established and forward thinking photographers, with the aim of delivering advanced and specialised products to help them excel at either their job or their passion. The goal for Induro supports is simple: to design and produce the finest camera supports possible, always using the best materials and production methods. The result is products that offer the best stability and robustness with no unnecessary gimmicks. Although previously available in the UK market, there’s a brand new range of Induro tripods on display at The Photography Show – so make sure you drop by stand D120 on your visit. www.macgroupeu.com

See Sigma’s line up in person on stand B82
Think photography and visualise cameras, lenses and accessories… and that’s
exactly what Sigma has announced in spades just in time for exhibiting here at The Photography Show. Among the new products are two new Quattro branded cameras in the dp0 and the dp3, which, along with the previously released dp1 and dp2 models, bring the quirky, award-winning compact line up to four. Featuring Sigma’s proprietary Foveon X3 direct image sensor, which effectively delivers the equivalent of 29 megapixels, the dp0 incorporates a 14mm f/4 lens equivalent to 21mm in 35mm terms. Sigma suggests the camera is best suited to architectural photography, landscapes and the photographing of interior spaces. For anyone wanting to further expand the contents of their kit bag, there is a dedicated VF-51 optical viewfinder available as an optional extra. The second new camera announcement in the dp3 comes with a 50mm f/2.8 lens attached, providing the 35mm equivalent of 75mm. The optional FT-1201 conversion lens magnifies the focal length by 1.2 times, making it a 90mm equivalent in 35mm terms. The dp3 is perfect for anyone wanting a camera suitable for mid telephoto and macro range photography. The remaining two options in the dp1 and dp2 are for wide angle and ‘standard’ photography respectively. Suitable as an extra for any of the dp Quattro series is a new BG-11 base grip announced alongside the dp0 and dp3, which can be threaded into the tripod mount of the cameras for what’s being described as ‘handgrip-style shooting’. In turn the bottom of the base grip itself has a screw hole via which it can be attached directly to a tripod. As availability and pricing for the new kit was still to be decided as we went to press, please talk to the Sigma team direct at The Photography Show.
AP Award winner Sigma takes a standFresh from its 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art lens winning ‘Best Fixed Lens’ and overall

range, which was first shown at Photokina last year. The thinking is that this lens enables easier handling making it possible to do
handheld photography for longer periods of time, while
the tripod socket is detachable for transportation. Speaking of which,
a further new product arrives in the TS-81 Tripod Socket for the Sports configuration of the lens as an optional lens foot. There are two screw hole sizes: 1/4 and 3/8-inch. Placed into its ‘Art’ lens category is the Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM, a large aperture wide angle lens suitable for you to capture everything from expansive cityscapes to a star-filled night sky, its maker claims, as well as delivering a smooth ‘bokeh’ effect and aiding those who might want to work in lower light conditions. Like all Sigma lenses, it’s made in Japan and this optic includes a Super Multi-Layer Coating which reduces flare and ghosting, the bayonet mount is of brass construction, and the product is further compatible with Sigma’s optional USB Dock, which allows for a degree of future proofing and the direct download of Firmware upgrades. Availability date and pricing for this lens is a suggested £799.99, although expect a lower street price. Sigma and Canon fits are available this month with Nikon to follow in April and the date for the Sony fit still to be confirmed. Also worth checking out at the show is the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art lens, recent winner of ‘Best Fixed Lens’ and Best Product’ at the 2015 Amateur Photographer awards. This is in addition to the 50mm bagging EISA and Gear of the Year awards and DP Review Readers’ Choice Best Lens of 2014 award – so there’s absolutely no excuse not to be considering it. www.sigma-imaging-uk.com
More modern ‘Art’
Alongside the new Quattro compact duo and accessories, Sigma isn’t forgetting its bread and butter, and so there are also new interchangeable lenses for Sigma,
Canon and Nikon DSLR mounts. The ‘big beast’ here in its Contemporary lens category is the 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM, which is being pitched as the more affordable, compact and lightweight version of the ‘Sports’ lens with the same focal

There is a lot of buzz around 4K capture at the moment and, feeding such excitement,
Panasonic is demonstrating the unique capabilities of extracting an 8 megapixel still from a 4K video file and printing up to A3 in size on show stand C61. With the theme of the stand being 4K all the way, arguably it’s not until you witness demo’s such as this first hand that it’s possible to really get a handle on the potential value of this facility. The manufacturer is naturally one of the big draws at the NEC, where it’s appearing with a full programme of events and photographer brand ambassadors to win hearts and educate minds. Riding high on critical acclaim for its 4K shooting cameras in the Lumix DMC-GH4, FZ1000, LX100 and Android-powered CM1 device announced last year, newly on display will be the retro styled GF7 (not 4K incidentally) compact system camera along with its TZ70 flagship travel zoom. The show is also acting as the official launch for the one-inch sensor incorporating CM1, which is getting a nation-wide release having been trialed in key retail outlets earlier this year. Limited quantities are available for purchase right here, right now, via the London Camera Exchange and Camera World stands. The Lumix DMC-CM1’s super-slim slim profile ensures the ultimate in portability. Currently operating with Android 4.4 or KitKat OS, a firmware upgrade to the next generation Lollipop OS is promised this May. Key attributes include that one-inch CMOS chip, Leica DC lens, 4.7-inch screen, Raw image capture, plus 4K video recording (3840x2160 pixels) at 15fps, in addition to Full HD 1920x1080 at 30fps. Two special modes – ‘4K Pre-Burst’ and ‘4K Photo’ – also make the most of the ultra high resolution. The former records 45 frames right before and after the shutter has been released, enabling the photographer to choose which image to save. The 4K photo mode meanwhile delivers the wow of allowing a 8 megapixel still to be extracted from a frame of 4K video, in-camera. Regular retail price is £799.
The electronics giant is promising attendees at The Photography Show four activity-packed days showcasing 4K capabilities on its stand C61 and much more besides…

Get hands on and talk to the experts
If the above sounds enticing, there will be plenty of opportunity to get handy tips and advice from not just professionals using Panasonic kit but also the manufacturer’s in-house imaging team, including Product Specialist Mark Baber, who you’ll find on the stand each day of the event. “The theme is 4K; it’s about all speed, motion and communication,” Mark promises us. “We have seven of our ambassadors at the show each day in addition to our Panasonic training team. We’re producing an enthusiastic and energetic display with a real fun element to it. “Everything from our 4K imaging category is on display. We’ve got 4K camcorders and our new TZ compact range, plus the GF7. Last year we had a seminar theatre area, but this year we’re changing things up a gear so our photographer ambassadors can talk one-to-one with our customers, live on our stand. It’s more interactive than ever.” Naturally when, rather than if, you find some Panasonic kit at the show you’re interested in buying, head over to Panasonic’s retail partners at the show in Camera World and LCE who – if past experience is anything to go by – will doubtless will be able to offer you some very enticing show deals. As a spot of theatre Panasonic is carrying out live demonstrations each day featuring athletes skilled in taekwondo, fencing and gymnastics. It will also be printing out 4K images before your very eyes using equipment and media supplied by Fotospeed, and at the time of writing there were plans afoot to include flying drones on the Panasonic stand, as well as some unusual structures by way of displaying the kit. “We’re expecting that to be very exciting and are inviting visitors to the show to come along, take photographs with our cameras, take the SD card out and then get a print made on the stand, so people can walk away with prints and experience 4K photography for themselves,” enthuses Mark. So don’t tarry – head now to Panasonic stand C61. www.panasonic.co.uk
WIN A CM1: Panasonic will be giving away one DMC-CM1 every day at the show – visitors need
to look out for the CM1 chocolate bar at the entrance of the show and if they find the ‘Golden
Ticket’, they’ll receive a free CM1.

The Photography Show returns to the NEC for the second year since it
took over the mantle of Focus on Imaging. Set to be the UK’s largest photographic event, you will find a whole host of exhibitors, workshops and seminars to enjoy. Returning to the NEC from Saturday to Tuesday, March 21st to 24th, it is now located in Hall 5, the NEC’s largest hall – for a better visitor experience, more space, more places to eat, and closer to the rail station. A Food Gallery has been added within the hall (there is an image gallery in this area for visitors to enjoy). Aisles have been widened and a surprising 84 new exhibitors added to the 200-plus line-up. These include notable absences from last year Leica, Sony and Pentax (Ricoh Imaging). TimeInc (formerly IPC Media) and the Association of Photographers have become partners for 2015. The show sees the return of the Super Stage with a new line-up featuring Martin Parr, Mary Ellen Walker, Susan Meiselas, Tim Flach, Tom Stoddart, Michael Kenna, Simon Norfolk, Lynsey Addario and Don McCullin. Live demonstrations will see Fuji, Panasonic and Sony put some of their kit in the spotlight in intimate product spotlight sessions. A dynamic collective of women will be hosting a panel Women in Photography, discussing various themes around the subject. A great line-up of exhibitors including Nikon, Olympus, Manfrotto and Bowens will be hosting free talks on their stands completing this comprehensive programme of activities. The Photography Show is a great day out for keen enthusiast photographers, don’t miss out and book your

Mobileography will be an open area on the show floor designed to demonstrate the ability of smartphones to create great photos.

Look for this poster at The Photography Show. It is not just an informative lighting guide from The Flash Centre, it includes special offers from Aspire Photographic Training and Mark Cleghorn’s The Photographer Academy. The reverse side is the ‘best’ shot from the portrait shoot, at 22 x 30" size.
LIGHTING GUIDEMaster professional portrait lighting with these 20 essential studio setups
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite SoftboxPosition the light high and to the side to
create a triangle on the model’s cheek. The shadow of the nose should point towards the edge of the lips. The Portalite creates a soft directional effect.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one 16cm Reflector,
one Shoot-through UmbrellaPosition the light high and to the side as with
the ‘Rembrandt with a Portalite Softbox’ setup. The light is slightly less contrasty,
because the light is less directional and there is always some reflection from the studio surroundings.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one 18cm Reflector with Honeycomb Position the light in the same manner as the previous ‘Rembrandt’ techniques; the light
through the honeycomb grid is stronger and more dramatic. The grid makes it very easy
to direct the light on to the model and away from the background, which becomes dark.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one 16cm Reflector, one Silver UmbrellaPosition the light in the same manner as the
previous ‘Rembrandt’ techniques. The light bouncing from the silver umbrella is more
direct and wraps around the features of the face yet still creates the shadow from the nose towards the mouth.
REMBRANDT WITH A SILVER UMBRELLA
REMBRANDT WITH A HONEYCOMB GRID
REMBRANDT THROUGH AN UMBRELLA
REMBRANDT WITH A PORTALITE SOFTBOX
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite Softbox
Use the ‘Split’ technique with no light spilling onto one side of the face and pose the model
so that her head is at an angle. Position the light so that the far (short) side is lit and the
rest of the face is in shadow.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite Softbox
Use the ‘Split’ technique with no light spilling onto one side of the face and pose the model
so that her head is at an angle. Position the light so that the near (broad) side is lit and
the rest of the face is in shadow.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite Softbox
Position the softbox above and to one side of the model for a classic ‘Rembrandt’ effect.
Place the softbox half a metre away, this will create softer shadows. Look at the soft
shadow from the nose. Notice also the darkened background, also due to the Portalite being closer.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite Softbox
Position the softbox above and to one side of the model for a classic ‘Rebrandt’ effect. This time place the softbox two metres or more away; this will create more defined
shadows. Look how hard the shadow from the nose is.
KEY WITH A FAR AWAY PORTALITE SOFTBOX
KEY WITH A CLOSE PORTALITE SOFTBOX
SPLIT/BROAD
SPLIT/SHORT
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite SoftboxUse the principles of ‘Rembrandt’ lighting
to create the triangle of light on the face. Position the model’s head at an angle and
light it from the left side, so the side of the face closer to the camera falls into shade.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite SoftboxUse the principles of ‘Rembrandt’ lighting
to create the triangle of light on the face. Position the model’s head at an angle and
light it from the right side, so the side of the face closest to the camera is lit.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite SoftboxPosition a light to one side of the model in
such a way that no light spills onto the other side of the face, with a shadow line running
down the centre. We’ve used a softbox here, but any of the light modifiers would work.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite Softbox, one small reflectorPosition a light to one side of the model in
such a way that no light spills onto the far side of the face, with a shadow line running
down the centre. Position a reflector on the opposite side to bounce light back into the
face and fill some of the shadows.
SPLIT WITH FILL
SPLIT
REMBRANDT BROAD
REMBRANDT SHORT
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite SoftboxThis setup is similar to ‘Rembrandt’, but
rather than creating a closed triangle of light on the unlit cheek, the shadow from the nose
should create a loop pointing towards the corner of the mouth.
KIT: One D-lite RX4 head, one Clip-lock Stand, one Portalite Softbox
Position one light above and directly in line with the centre of the subject’s face. Notice
how there’s an even shadow under the nose. It’s best if this shadow doesn’t reach all the way down to the upper lip.
KIT: Two D-lite RX4 heads, two Clip-lock Stands, two Portalite Softboxes
Use a second D-lite Strobe and Portalite softbox for this setup and position both
lights (each set to the same power and the same angle) either side of the model at head height. This will give a very even light. Notice the lack of shadows.
FLAT LIGHT
BUTTERFLY
LOOP
KIT: Two D-lite RX4 heads, two Clip-lock Stands, two Portalite Softboxes
This is a great beauty setup. Position one softbox slightly above the model in the
centre and angled downwards and one slightly below, also in the centre but angled upwards. A boom arm to support the top
light is useful but not essential.
CLAMSHELL
KIT: Two D-lite RX4 heads, two Clip-lock Stands, two Portalite Softboxes
Set a key light above the subject and at a 45 degree angle to create a basic ‘Loop’ setup.
Position a second light in a lower position and to the other side of the model, reduce its
power to roughly half that of your key light.
KEY AND FILL
KIT: Two D-lite RX4 heads, two Clip-lock Stands, one Portalite Softbox, one Pop-up Reflector
Use one D-lite with the Softbox as your key light and a large silver reflector to bounce
light back into the face. To make the background completely white, place the
second D-lite behind the model, point it at the backdrop and use a higher power setting.
HIGH KEY
KIT: Two D-lite RX4 heads, two Clip-lock Stands, one Portalite Softbox
Use a simple ‘Loop’ or ‘Rembrandt’ setup and position a second light behind the
model, pointing at the background. Adjust the strength and angle of the flash to vary the intensity and the gradient of the light on the background.
KIT: Two D-lite RX4 heads, two Clip-lock Stands, one Portalite Softbox, one 18cm
Reflector with Honeycomb GridUse a simple ‘Loop’ or ‘Rembrandt’ setup,
but add a second light with an 18cm Reflector and Grid attached (or use a snoot) placed
behind the model. Angle the D-lite precisely, using the modelling light so that the light
catches the edge of the model’s hair.

Undoubtedly one of the biggest questions to match the fastest
growing trend within the photo printing industry is how we encourage consumers to print photos from the millions that are captured everyday on smartphones and tablet. The answer is to be had in the Kodak Moments HD Tablet App and My Kodak Moments App for smartphone. Thanks to the introduction of consumer friendly features, it has been downloaded over 10 million times. Go to:kodakmomentsapp.comto do so yourself. The idea is that it allows you to create photo projects and products – everything from ordering a print to designing your own personal photo book – anywhere and everywhere – and then collect the end result from a local retail outlet of your choice. As photographers, the beauty is that you get both the creative options of desktop software combined with the ease of use of a mobile app. Back home on the sofa or even while still on holiday, it will quickly take you to your choice of photo and design template, thanks to its intuitive user interface and networking of

social media platforms including Facebook or Instagram. You can then send your finished print project to participating retailers for collection on the same day. Two technologies help make this possible. Smart Fit technology automatically adapts the size of the photo selected to the space that is available, without losing content or cropping it. And Kodak Perfect Touch enhancement technology improves the picture quality automatically. In addition to the photos stored in the camera or the device, the app also accesses the user’s photos – subject to the user’s consent – on Facebook, Instagram, Flickr, Dropbox or Apple’s iCloud. The app is now available to download from the Apple App
The Kodak Moments App whether used on tablet (above and left) or mobile (below) allows you to create printed products anywhere, then collect from your local store – or do it all in-store if you wish
Store on iTunes, with a version for Android devices to follow. Planned updates include a broad range of photo products, including customised greeting cards, photo collages and calendars. “We’re being realistic here and not expecting every single image from a mobile phone to be printed, but if we can unlock a fraction of smartphone photographers to recognise these special Kodak Moments and encourage them to print, then that really is going to be a game changer for us and the industry too,” UK Marketing Manager Paul Davey tells us. “There have been reports suggesting people are putting too much faith in the Internet being ever-lasting in terms of storing our memories. The only
way to absolutely secure those images for the longer term is to print them, which is an essential message we need to put across. “But we actually managed to get ourselves ‘trending’ worldwide on Twitter, thanks to our work with Text Santa on ITV. In fact the results were pretty spectacular in terms of the numbers of people we were able to reach. ‘Kodak Moments’ is a widely recognised phrase, so by tapping into how this is used on digital channels such as Instagram we can increase engagement and interaction.” To download the app/s for mobile and tablet now or to get the Kodak Create@Home software for your PC, head to kodakmomentsapp.com and don’t forget to drop by stand C101 at the show!

The Photographic Alliance of Great Britain – or ‘PAGB’ for short – is a body that helps coordinate national
events and services for almost 1,000 pho-tographic clubs across the UK, via such clubs’ affiliation with one of 15 Regional Federations. Services include the bi-an-nual PAGB handbook, which lists all the volunteer lecturers and judges willing to visit clubs, plus very competitive and vitally important insurance for clubs and members. Added to this, inter-club chal-lenges, awards and competitions all seek to appreciate the very best of UK ama-teur photography, with their Awards for Photographic Merit (CPAGB, DPAGB and MPAGB) held in the highest esteem. Clubs meet regularly, mostly weekly, and typically from September until April, though in fact some remain active and open all year round. The clubs’ objective is to encourage members to enjoy and improve their photography in the mutu-ally supportive and motivating company of fellow enthusiasts. Many people have an old fashioned view of camera clubs as populated by men in cardigans endlessly discussing equipment. This kind of club is long gone.
Want to join a camera club? The Photographic Alliance of Great Britain has all the info on stand H135
Strength in an Alliance
Most are vibrant creative organisations with an equal gender mix and mem-bers from many different backgrounds. Photographs are discussed far more than cameras (or cardigans). The ethos of the Dumfries Camera Club, to give just one example, is typ-ical of the majority, namely in seeking to extend a warm welcome to all levels of photographer, from beginner to inter-national award winner. Competitions are run throughout the year and speakers, both national and local, visit the club to lecture and give presentations on various aspects of photography. You don’t even have to take photographs to attend an enthusiastic club where members with a wide range of abilities enjoy seeing each others’ pictures and benefiting from a shared knowledge of all things photo-graphic. So if you are looking for inspi-ration, want to know which buttons to press on your camera or just want to join a friendly progressive photographic club, why not come along to stand H135 at The Photography Show to find out more.

Charlie Waite – Platinum Etching 285Landscape photography is much about discovery and photographers can only fully relish the rewards of their efforts when seen in the form of a print. The paper used for that print has to be as carefully considered as the image made. Discovering Fotospeed’s Platinum Etching 285 has been a revelation to me and has proved a vital tool in my ongoing quest to match pre-visualisation with end result.
John Swannell – Platinum Baryta 300As a photographer I aim to capture the spirit of my subject. While technology has changed over the years the one thing I feel remains the same is the importance of the printed image. Fotospeed’s Platinum Baryta bridges the gap between the traditional darkroom papers and todays digital media. I find that whilst it is known for reproducing superb B&W images it should never be under estimated as a paper for colour work.
Trevor & Faye Yerbury – Natural Soft Textured Bright White 315As traditional darkroom printers it has taken us many years to discover the right paper for our digital images that will capture and hold all of the shadow and highlight detail we demand. Natural Soft Textured Bright White is our preferred paper.
Joe Cornish – Smooth Cotton 300I aim to crystallise the endlessly varied light, colours and texture of nature in my landscape photographs. At the end of a chain of photographic processes, the print is the culmination and fulfilment of that effort, and the paper is critical to the success of the print. Fotospeed’s Smooth Cotton 300 is my paper of choice.

If you’ve never tried using Canson’s high quality Fine Art and Photo papers before
then The Photography Show presents the ideal opportunity, with two different sets of Discovery test packs on sale for a fiver each, instead of the usual £17.78. This is a limited show offer, while stocks last – so head over there now to secure a great deal. Plus, to celebrate Canson’s 150 years in the photo business – in fact, it is the last photographic paper manufacturing pioneer still standing – there are prize draws being held every day of the show to win Canson papers, archival photo storage boxes designed to preserve your prints over time, plus signed prints from brand ambassadors. Photographer Bryan Hopper will be appearing on stand G41 with fellow professional John Miskelly, to answer your
questions, share tips, divulge tricks and generally give advice on why they both choose and use Canson papers. So come over to say hello and enjoy what’s being described as a stellar printing performance. Another draw is that when you do pay a visit, you’ll find a display that less resembles a stand and more closely that of a gallery, thanks to 20 works of art on show – printed on Canson papers naturally – for you to peruse. As we’ve indicated there are some great show offers to be had at the Canson stand as well as expert advice from its brand ambassadors and the team on achieving perfect prints. With Fine Art and Photo papers and canvasses offered in the Canson Infinity series and limited deals to be had, don’t dawdle… dash over to location G41 now. www.cansoninfinity.com
Discover why there’s never been a better time to sample Canson papers on stand G41
Save 70% with Canson show offer
Canson Fine Art (above) and Fine Art Photo Discovery packs – with 10 or 11 full A4 sample sheets of premium papers in each one – can be picked up on the stand for only £5. That’s saving £12.78 per pack on retail prices! Editor’s tip – buy five of each pack and you’ll get four sheets of each of 21 different premium papers to test and create fine prints with.

A huge selection of second hand items to buy and an exhibition of stunning images captured by its
members are just two essential reasons to visit the Disabled Photographers’ Society stand H51 at The Photography Show. Founded in 1968, the Disabled Photographers’ Society is a registered national charity that promotes photogra-phy for people with disabilities, their carers, disabled groups, or anyone with an interest in helping the disabled. So if you have a disability and want to enjoy photography, the Society is here to help, advise and encourage you to overcome any difficulties you have to enable you to take great photographs. It has extensive experience in adapting or making equip-ment to help even those with severe disabilities operate their camera. Many members produce work on a par with (or better than) able-bodied club members and professional photographers, accord-ing to Chairman Tom Molloy. Even if you are able bodied you can still get involved with the Society by gen-erously donating unwanted photograph-ic equipment. If you’ve upgraded your

kit, don’t leave old gear stuck in the back of the wardrobe; donate it at the show. Just about anything photographic that is in working order is welcomed - from a roll of film or your old instruction book, through to a complete darkroom or your old camera outfit – good use can be made of it all. Unlike some charities, the Society does not employ staff and exists purely on the hard work of volunteers, so every penny raised goes directly to help the continuation of its work, allowing its members to benefit from the therapeutic effect that photography provides. So if you’re reading this online before the event please take note that any do-nation, large or small, is gratefully accept-ed on Stand H51. But even if you do not have any suitable donations, do still visit the stand to peruse the many second hand items for sale, including a huge se-lection of used cameras, books, bags and cases. There will also be a diverse selec-tion of members’ photography to admire. If you have items to donate but are not able to bring them to the show then please email Chairman Tom Molloy:[email protected] thanks in advance.

Award from Amateur Photographer magazine, SRB Photographic Ltd
is appearing at The Photography Show stand B2 with its plethora of UK manufac-tured, precision engineered and moreo-ver great value camera filter and lens adapter products. With over 45 years’ worth of experience under its belt, SRB prides itself on not only giving excellent service, but also advice over the phone, online and in-store – as well as at the show itself! Hero products on display in Hall 5 of Birmingham’s NEC include its new ‘A’ and ‘P’ size Aluminium Square Filter Holders, which feature an integrated adaptor ring for easy and full rotation when in use, and for three filters to be loaded at any one time, plus its multiple award winning ND1000 ‘big stopper’ fil-ter. Price wise the A size pro filter hold-er is £19.95, while the P size is £24.95. Alternatively grab the A size pro starter kit at £34.95, which includes a holder and one ND filter, or P size pro starter
kit that also includes holder and ND filter for a bargain £39.50. With deals like these you’ll also want to be aware that launched at The Photography Show is SRB Photographic Ltd’s new spring/summer 2015 cata-logue, which includes all of its new prod-ucts – so be sure to take one. Stand B2 will also be hosting many special show offers that are even better value than those on the website or published in the catalogue, so it would be well worth your while to pay a visit. For example it is of-fering a selfie stick bundle that includes bluetooth remote in a choice of six col-ours for just £10.00 instead of the usual £14.90… worth it for just the remote! All SRB filters will also be available for purchasing so this is the perfect oppor-tunity to survey the range in one go. See you there. www.srb-photographic.co.uk
