Discovering Infrared Photography
The Image Doctors #179
Photographer Spotlight: William Eggleston
This week, we’re starting a new series where we take a look at influential photographers. For our first segment, we’ve chosen to highlight the works of William Eggleston (American, b. 1939). Eggleston’s unique approach to “snapshot” style, color photographs made his work stand out in the early 1970s. Learn more at the Eggleston Art Foundation.
DXO PureRaw 3
This week, DXO released a new version of their popular PureRaw plug-in. We take a look at how it works, and why we both use it in our image editing workflows, especially with high-ISO images.

Is a Full-Spectrum Infrared Camera Right for You?
This week, we’re back from our travels and we’re discussing full-spectrum infrared conversions. A full-spectrum conversion allows you to use your camera across a variety of infrared wavelengths, plus as a standard visible-light camera. There are pros and cons of these conversions, but we are very happy with our recent full-spectrum conversions by Kolari Vision.

A timeless classic: Nikon’s 105mm f/2.5 Nikkor
Today’s mirrorless cameras make it really easy to use older, manual focus lenses. The ability to use focus peaking and zoom using the electronic viewfinder can give new life to older lens designs that may have been challenging to use with traditional DSLRs. This week, we take a look at an absolute classic, the Nikon 105mm f/2.5 manual focus lens.
First impressions of the Nikon 17-28mm f/2.8 Z Nikkor lens
We got our hands on a production copy of the newest Nikon Z super-wide zoom, the 17-28mm f/2.8 Nikkor Z. This lens, manufactured by Tamron in a partnership with Nikon, is well-balanced, delivers excellent sharpness, and is less than half the price of Nikon’s other f/2.8 super-wide lens, the 14-24mm f/2.8S. We’ll take a look at the pros and cons of this lens as compared to the other offerings in Nikon’s Z lens lineup. Thank you to B&H Photo for loaning us this lens!
