Focus on Imaging 2012

Hi

Last weekend I again visited the NEC to see the latest offerings from the photographic world not least the Nikon D800 and the Fuji X Pro1. Both these cameras are now on my wish list but due to the clamour of photographers trying to buy one I think I’ll be lucky to have either before Sept take a look at the links for a description of the above both a step on from the last mark and a huge jump in digital photography terms since my first digi purchase.

But the show isn’t only about cameras it’s about all forms of photo equipment, lighting, finishing and media. Again things take your attention and for me apart from cameras the album/book ranges available are eye opening, one of which I’ll be showing to clients this year is a print book. These are from a firm called Photostorie and are made in Dublin, In order to appreciate these books you have to hold them, the feel and quality of finish is superb. They do a huge range from large coffee table sized book with up to 100 pages to a Mini Folio size 10 x 10 cm, with 10 or more pages, a small handbag sized book that can be used for almost any picture type e.g. Wedding highlights, parent wedding/christening book, child portrait. Their range is enormous take a look at the site to get a taste.

Again though the show offered more info than you can gather in a couple of hours housed in a couple of small (for the NEC) halls.

Try and go.
