Phoblographer wants to start doing even more, and we could use your help. I started to do things that otherwise would seem crazy for a publisher of a niche photography online magazine to do. For starters, this year, the Phoblographer may actually make a printed magazine again. B…

This is a collection of short stories by one of Ireland’s best playwrights. I think you can tell that these stories were written by someone who’s at home with the stage. The dialogue really shines. And some of the stories feel like scenes in a play. But that’s no bad thi…
CSS Grid Lanes has started to ship in browsers. It’s in Safari and behind a flag in Chrome and Edge. It enables masonry layouts, where items get packed together in the most efficient way possible. Unsurprisingly, I’m a fan of a layout tool where the browser does all the ha…
I’m giving a talk this week. Usually this wouldn’t be a big deal. I’ve been giving talks for over twenty years now. But this one is different. I’m going to speaking at Na Píobairí Uilleann, the Society of Uilleann Pipers, in Dublin. They have a monthly series of lect…
I give Apple a hard time. That’s mostly due to how they treat the web on their own mobile devices. Though iOS ostensibly supports the ability for websites to be added to the homescreen, they make it so difficult for users to do, the functionality is practically worthless. It�…
Sarah Canary is an odd book, in the best possible way. On the one hand, it’s a relatively straightforward narrative. An adventure story set in the Pacific northwest in the late 19th century. The viewpoint shifts from character to character, with one exception. The inscrutable…

We regularly use our own presets for our reviews here at the Phoblographer. And trust us, they work. When we made our presets, we made them with the intent of having photographers be able to work without the need for AI replacing what they do. Indeed, these presets are all about…

I didn’t know what a near-infrared LED mask was a week ago, and now I am obsessed with this ad from Omnilux. Because there’s a lot going on. The aesthetic of the mask itself is wild: the lines look like sinews as if the woman has been flensed But the schematic flesh is…
And then repeats as champs Rumors have it that Giannis Antetokounmpo is headed for the Boston Celtics in a complicated trade that will send Celtics stalwart Jaylen Brown to Milwaukee or elsewhere. I doubt this will happen, simply because at this stage in their careers, Jaylen i…

There have been a whole slew of new tilt-shift lenses finally coming to the market; which have been much needed. Fujifilm makes their own for GFX but all the other brands aren't making their own. Yet at the same time, I truly think that with all the AI that's being used in camer…
The Canon R7 has been a blessing for many young photographers. Housing a 32MP APS-C sensor, the R7 can pretty much achieve anything. Over the years, the camera has received multiple updates, with firmware version 1.8.0 being the latest in the line. Here's a quick look at what th…
