Budget backdrops
Do you think you need to spend hundreds of dollars on seamless muslin backgrounds to have studio-quality portraits? Well you don't. In this helpful article, Contributing Editor James Booth shows you a few methods that work well for him and yield rather nice results for very little money.

Box cameras in the digital age
Do you have one of those old box cameras sitting on your shelf? Maybe you found it in the basement, garage, attic, or thrift shop. It makes a nice little knick-knack doesn't it? But surely it isn't worth anything in this day and age? It doesn't even work, does it? Well, that may not necessarily be so. Wouldn't you like to find out?

Reach for the skylight
How much do you have invested in your camera lens? Depending on how many you have and what focal length they are, several hundred at the very least, right? You protect the lens with a cap when you're not using it, don't you? Sure you do. But what about when you're using it? What can you do then? You can reach for the sky. Skylight filter, that is.

What's an SLR?
You may have heard the term "SLR" tossed about, or seen it in an article and wondered what it meant. Well, sit back while Contributing Editor James Booth explains what an SLR camera is and why he think an SLR camera is far superior to point-and-shoot models -- whether digital or film.
