Chelsea Clinton wedding pictures continue to burn up the net. Ironically, Chelsea Clinton wanted her wedding details to remain secret – but that just drums up interest even more.  …

Chelsea Clinton walks with Marc Mezvinsky after their wedding ceremony at Astor Court in Rhinebeck, New York July 31, 2010. Bill and Hillary Clinton’s daughter married her long-time boyfriend in the picturesque New York village of Rhinebeck on Saturday in what has been dubbed America’s royal wedding.

On July 31, 2010, Clinton and Marc Mezvinsky wed in an interfaith ceremony conducted by United Methodist pastor the Rev. William Shillady and Reform Rabbi James Ponet at Rhinebeck, New York.  … The venue for the nuptials was Astor Courts, a 50-acre 1902 Beaux-Arts estate on a bluff overlooking the Hudson River designed by Stanford White as a sporting pavilion for John Jacob Astor IV. The estate is presently the home of Hillary Clinton supporters Kathleen Hammer, once a producer at Oxygen Media, and Arthur Seelbinder, a developer and businessman. …

Mezvinsky was born December 15, 1977 to former Iowa Democratic congressman Edward Mezvinsky and former Pennsylvania Democratic congresswoman Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky, and is one of their 11 adopted and biological children. His parents chose to raise their children in the Conservative Jewish tradition as a compromise between his father’s Orthodox upbringing and his mother’s Reform background; the Conservative tradition generally discourages interfaith unions.

… The Clintons and Mezvinskys were great friends in the 1990s and their children met on a Renaissance Weekend retreat in Hilton Head, SC. … They became romantically involved several years later, and debuted as a couple in Las Vegas in 2005. They became engaged over Thanksgiving weekend 2009, and wrote family and friends: “We’re sorry for the mass e-mail, but we wanted to wish everyone a belated Happy Thanksgiving! We also wanted to share that we are engaged! We didn’t get married this past summer despite the stories to the contrary, but we are looking toward next summer and hope you all will be there to celebrate with us. Happy Holidays! Chelsea & Marc.” – wikipedia.

Hello,

I’m more than happy to stand corrected, but from my experience in media law in the US, UK, and Australia I believe I own the copyright to my own likeness (AKA their own image in photos/videos). Everyone does, as protected under under national and international laws, maybe even under the U.N. universal convention on human rights, etc)…

FaceBook should therefore ask my permission before publishing a photo of me to avoid breaching my ownership of my image, let alone before they allow me to be tagged in that photo!

Work flow should be something like this…

1) User creates photo album and uploads pics.

2) FaceBook scans photos and picks faces of users whose opt-in preferences (I.e. its not automatically possible to for the FaceBook system to ID faces unless the user opts-into it).

2B) FaceBook could maybe even provide suggestions as to who the faces might be after comparing them with the profile pics albums of the user’s friends who’s preferences allow this).

NB. facial recognition is kinda big brother though as it could be used to maliciously automatically catalogue everything ever done by anyone that gets uploaded in a photo). But if its subject to the following approval process then could be OK

3) User tags friends, using suggestions as a guide.

4) FaceBook automatically blurs the faces in the photo, allowing it to be published immediately (albeit without the faces being distinguishable to avoid breaching each person’s individual ownership of the copyright to their own image.). At least this way pics of events and whatnot can be published right away to give a general feel of what was happening.

5) FaceBook messages users friends after they’ve been tagged, showing them the part of the photo containing their (maybe face enlargeable with a magnifying glass when moused-over), but with the other faces blurred out to avoid breaching each person’s individual ownership of the copyright to their own images.

6) FaceBook IDs the other faces and messages the candidates to ask if its them (only checking the faces of the possible candidates who have opted-in to be considered in the auto-tagging process)

I.e. those who don’t get tagged by the poster, and who opt out of selection for auto-tag-suggestions don’t ever get un-blurred in photos… which is of course much better than the photo never getting published just because one of the people in it doesn’t want their likeness shown or can’t be identified by the auto-tag-suggestion system).

7A) FaceBook un-blurrs (removes blurring of individual faces), republishing it based on the permissions its received as each user tagged (or auto-tag-suggested) confirms or denies permission for this particular version of their likeness to be published…

…and…

…7B)

as each user confirms or denies permission for as each user confirms or denies permission for there to be a tag on it that IDs them in particular.

EXAMPLE SCENARIOS:

i-a) The option to veto completely the publishing of a photo that only contains your likeness (I.e. no photo online will then be online at all, let alone with a blurred face) should be available if the person is the only face/likeness in the photo. Likeness can include distinguishable features, not just a person’s face.

i-b) If multiple faces in a photo then the user should be able to petition the poster, and if they refuse to take it down, then secondly the user should then be able to anonymously petition owners of the other faces/likenesses, asking them if they are willing to support your veto of the photo’s publication as a whole. A veto from owners of all the faces in the photo should be able to overpower the poster and remove the photo altogether.

ii-a) Bad photo user doesn’t like as is…

User selects that the photo can be published with their likeliness (and any distinguishable features they select) blurred, and as they don’t like the photo they can select that FaceBook not ID them directly (I.e. not tag them).

ii-b) Bad photo user doesn’t like…

User selects that the photo can be published with their likeliness un-blurred, but as they don’t like the photo they can select that FaceBook not ID them directly (I.e. not tag them).

iii) Bad photo, but don’t mind people knowing it was you.

User selects to have their face blurred, but a tag is created anyway to show it was them (just not the look on their face as they E.g. dive off the bungee jump tower full of fear).

iv) OK photo and am happy to be personally IDed.

User selects yes un-blur my face and tag me.
________________

Without an asset approval process such as this for copyright attainment, in my opinion FaceBook currently violates the inalienable human right to privacy and ownership of their own images of each person whose likeness is published on it!!!

I.e. The current work flow not allowing the veto of photos by the copyright owners pictured in is, not obtaining permission from each person in each photo as to whether their likeness can be shown, and then also obtaining approval that that particular likeness of them should also be tagged as being them.

N.B. To be fair, it should be noted that FaceBook currently mercifully allows users remove tags of themselves post-publishing (even notifying the users they’ve been tagged), however this really isn’t good enough to prevent for example, privacy breaches where privacy was reasonably expected and cases of accidental or even malicious mistaken identity/identity theft, which can destroy reputations, careers, and even lives)!~)

If this doesn’t change, then as users become more savvy about their rights online, FaceBook’s usership might become limited to those who are completely free and easy about the use of their likeness online without permission!~)

Again, maybe I’m well off the mark with all this and am of course more than happy to be corrected, so would be very keen to hear what others think!?!

166 Sunrises and Sunsets

For this week's Shooting Challenge, you captured one of the quintessential photographs: the sunrise/sunset. And you did it extremely well.

Perfect Circle

Canon 7D, EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM, AE Mode, Aperture f/2.8, Shutter hit 1/4000
Just a lake down the street from me, one that I ride by on my bike pretty much daily. When I heard about the challenge this week I rode over there and waited for something decent, and I think I got probably the best sunset of the week (at least in my location.) That's not to say I didn't try every night for the rest of the week, but nothing else was really poppin'. :(
[Ed note: Excellent color, great use of depth of field.]

A Picture About Taking Pictures

Leica X1, f/16 at 1/30 ISO 320.
I was out walking when i saw a group of people standing on top of a hill taking pictures of the sunset, and it made me think of the shooting challenge for this week. Maybe they were taking pictures for this challenge too? I will certainly look for the same sky among the submissions!
[Ed note: Love how the photographers in the shot are like a mini Easter Egg.]
-Loui Nydelius

SUN!!!!

Nikon D200, Vivitar 100-500mm manual focus @ 500mm, f11, iso 100, shutter 1/8000.
I just moved into an apartment in Jersey City and finally have a view of the sunset. This was taken from my window. This challenge reminded me that I have an old 500mm lens that I rarely use, so I decided to bust it out. And thats a sun spot in the upper left of the sun, not dust.
[Ed note: That's where a 500mm lens can get you...close enough to melt.]
-Adam Kopelman

Sun, Water, Tree, Fence

Canon EOS 7D, Tamaron 10-20mm f/4.0, Shutter speed: 1/1000 sec, Aperture: f/7.1, ISO: 100
Took this picture on a little photo trip to Abalone Cove in Rancho Palos Verdes (Los Angeles County). When I planned the trip, I wanted to get a photo of the sun on the water, but when I got there I realized that the geography was such that the sun would be setting behind the land, which left me disappointed. There was a thick marine layer off in the distance though, so I thought I'd try to use that as my new “horizon,” and I ended up with this.
[Ed note: It's clearly a sunset, but instead of a rich orange you just get a touch of general warmth.]
-Viet Nguyen (Jon)

Tatooine

Nikon D90, Nikkor 70 – 300mm f/4.5-5.6 VR, Exposure: 1/180, ISO: 100, Aperture: f/9.5, Focal Length: 300mm
Location: Armstrong, British Columbia, Canada
With one last available sunset prior to the shooting challenge deadline, I decided to take the plunge.
My wife and I are visiting relatives in BC's Interior (where there are currently more than a few forest fires)
Once I set up for the shot from my in-laws balcony I realized that the sunset would light the smoke from the nearby fires (those aren't clouds unfortunately). I took many shots as the sun was setting behind a mountain to the west, and thought I'd pick the best one out of them and sent it out. It was as I was looking over them, that I decided to fuse a couple of the exposures together to indicate the partial progression of the suns path that night. (Also it's my attempt at a tribute to the two suns of Tatooine — granted these two are much closer but I thought I'd go for it anyway)

Pond

This was shot with my Canon 7D and a Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 IS lens this morning, actually. I was driving down the highway and noticed a large pond facing the direction of the sunrise, so did a u-turn and soon as I could, turned around again and jumped out of my truck and snapped this.

Blast Off

My boyfriend and I had some friends visiting from out of town so we took them to the top of the Stratosphere in Las Vegas, NV for their last night in town. My boyfriend thought this would be a great opportunity to take some pictures for this contest. I just ordered a DSLR camera so I wanted to get some practice before it was shipped to me. I grabbed his camera and took some practice shots but apparently I had better luck with my shots and was able to get a great one!
Camera/Picture Info: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XSi, 55mm lens, 100ISO f/5.6
[Ed note: The semi-complementing lights on the ride make it for me.]

Lady Liberty

Shot this with my T2I with the Canon EF 28-135 mm IS lens at 135 mm, f13, 1/500, iso 200. This picture was taken on the Staten Island ferry headed towards Staten Island at about 7:45 pm on Saturday 07/31. The ferry gives you one of the best and cheapest (its free) views of the Statue of Liberty. Minor color correction adjustments were made in Lightroom to try and even out the lighting.
-Timothy Schubert

Sunset Preset

Nikon D5000 55-200mm VR lense F8 iso 200 1/3200s. This is right from my door at my apartment complex in okc. They have some awesome skies here! Tried a couple different setting but ended up going with the sunset setting. I did have to ps the power lines out… I can't get away from them.
[Ed note: If this is the result, I have no qualms with using presets!]

On the Water

Went out to eastern Long Island and looking for a good area to capture a full sunset. Just before we came upon Wildwood State Park up on the north shore. With minutes to spare I was able to get this one. Out of all the pictures I was able to get I liked this one the most. Shot with a Canon EOS Rebel T2i, EF0S 55-250mm f/ 4-5.6 IS lens focal length of 96mm. Shot using aperture mode at f16, shutter speed 1/500 sec at 100 ISO. Exposure bracketed at -2.

Unintentional Flag Burning

Sunrise, 5:03 a.m. Lake Koshkonong, Edgerton, WI. I woke early to a
calm morning at our lake house. While setting up the tripod for the
sunrise shot and looking at the best angle, the flag just happened to
get between me and the sun – happy accident!
Canon 50D, ISO 100, f18, 1/40 sec, EF-S 18-200mm F3.5-5.6 IS @80 mm

Paradise

This photo was taken with a Rebel XTi with kit lens (18-55) on our 10th anniversary trip to St. Lucia last week. I shot this in Manual mode using the “Faithful” setting in the menu. I had to size up the larger photo to meet your minimum requirement as I took this photo before I knew there was a contest this week. I was on vacation after all and reading my usual tech stuff was restricted.

Surfin' USA

Camera : Canon EOS 7D
Lens : Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM
Settings: f/32 1/160 secs 100ISO @ 135mm, Daylight white balance
Location: Crystal Cove State Park, Huntington Beach, CA
Photographer's Note:
It was my friend's birthday so I took him out for dinner in Huntington Beach. Later, we stopped by at Crystal Cove State Park to watch a sunset. Another photographer came in later and setup a tripod right in front of me. People interrupted me to take their pictures for them. Joggers cut right in front constantly. I didn't think it was going to happen so I decided to work with it and included two joggers and the other photographer. Meanwhile, the birthday guy was on his cell phone yapping away, missing the sunset entirely.

Point & Shoot Pefection

I love reading Gizmodo quite a bit and saw this contest for the sunset, and figured since I'm on vacation and had such beautiful shots as the one in the picture, I'd snap it and try submitting. Alas, being a dummy forgot my better camera at home, and it doesn't seem you take non digital camera entries, might be odd to submit a roll of film. No special lenses, filters or anything, just a crappy Sony Cybershot that belonged to a friend. Took the picture after some weather came through, was glad for the pictures. Information for the Sunset Contest:
1. This is a picture I took on vacation
2. Taken 7/29/2010
3. Crappy Sony Cybershot camera, decided it was a beautiful scene from the beach where we were sitting. Wasn't able to change too many settings for the camera itself
so let it do an auto setup and shot the picture, set the camera on the beach chair I was on so it wouldn't shake. Learned that after the third or fourth attempt.
4. This is to the contest and not the Mark Wilson man, though I bet it'd be fun to mail stuff to him…
5. The image included is the only image I have, as that was the maximum resolution on the camera.. kinda forgot the nice camera at home and this was the cybershot's highest setting
6. It's my only submission, though be rough and I could submit? :P
[Ed note: Great use of available tools...but you're weirding us out just a bit.]

WINNER – Mt. Fuji Sunrise

Shooting Info: Sony A550, Sigma 10-20mm lens @ 15mm, ISO200, f/5.6, EV -1.7, 1/640 sec.
I smiled at the coincidence of the latest Shooting Challenge subject because I had long before planned a nighttime hike up Mt. Fuji this Saturday (July 31) to catch the sunrise. Pictured are fellow climbers in silhouette as they take in a halo-sporting sunrise from high above the clouds just below the 9th stage of Mt. Fuji.
[Ed note: An epic moment. And of course, it makes a great wallpaper.]
-Ben Torode

Harder than ever to choose a winner—I must have changed my mind ten times! So many beautiful sunrises and sunsets are almost too much of a good thing. Maybe that's why nature only gives us each once a day.

Capturing photos has always been a big part of people’s lives. We all love to take pictures of ourselves, our relatives and friends whether or not there is a special occasion. But how much do we really know about photography? To further understand photography, below are some tips:

Different Types of Photography:

1. Aerial Photography – This type of photography is best if you want to capture a beautiful landscape or if you want to take a top view of a certain place.

2. Another type is called Amateur Photography. As the name implies, the one taking pictures is not yet a professional in photography.

3. Adventure or Action Photography – This is a type of photography which fits those who love adventure. As the name imply, the photographer takes pictures of sports events, daring feats and other activities that are considered as an adventure.

4. Kirlian Photography – This is a type of contact print photography wherein an object that is touching a photographic plate is connected to a high voltage power source, therefore creating an aura that creates an image. Sometimes, this type of photography is referred to as an Aura Photography.

5. Time-Lapse – This is another type of photography wherein the camera is being setup in a special way so that it will be able to get photographs with long exposure and produce something indicates the passing of time while certain things are portrayed to be moving objects. You may be familiar with this photo where in it shows a busy street where in car lights are shown as blurry lines, this is a great example of this type.

6. Underwater Photography – As the term implies, this refers to photographs taken underwater. The photographer may take images under a pool, lake, river, or the sea to capture what’s happening underneath.

7. A Black and White Photography is a type of photograpy in black in white colors, however, this is more than that. Black and white photography explores the shapes, tones, textures, art and the bare beauty of the subject or model. Shadows and highlights are two important elements in this type.

The types of photography mentioned above are just some of the types that one who loves photography can delve in. Photography itself has many uses, the most common of which are for artistic expression and for business promotion. For those who just love taking pictures of special moments can use any type of photography that he wishes.

The Panasonic GH1 is already an impressive compact Full HD camera, only limited to its “Camera” or DLSR looks, we could only hope that Panasonic would eventually offers the same “power” in a more camcorder friendly design… And my friends, this time has come… Yesterday, Panasonic announced the AG-AF100, their first Micro Four-Thirds Pro Camera using the very same lenses as mounted on the GH1 for example or any cameras using this format as well as soon to be released specific lenses for Video professional.

Just imagine for a second a HVX like camera with interchangeable lenses, and video quality matching a GH1… Announced at 6000$ this AG-AF100 will be a game changer in the industry and we just hope that Canon will goes in the same direction with a 5D MK II like Camcorder as well.

Press Release

Panasonic Solutions Company today announced a game-changing AVCCAM HD camcorder, the AG-AF100, the first professional micro 4/3-inch video camcorder optimized for high-definition video recording. Scheduled to ship by the end of 2010, the AG-AF100 will set a new benchmark for digital cinematography.

Targeted at the video and film production communities, the AF100 delivers the shallow depth of field and wider field of view of a large imager, with the flexibility and cost advantages of use with a growing line of professional quality, industry standard micro 4/3-inch lenses, filters, and adapters. The full 1080 and 720 production camera offers superior video handling, native 1080/24p recording, variable frame rates, professional audio capabilities, and compatibility with SDHC and SDXC media.

The design of the AF100’s micro 4/3-inch sensor affords depth of field and field of view similar to that of 35mm movie cameras in a less expensive camera body. Equipped with an interchangeable lens mount, the AF100 can utilize an array of low-cost, widely-available still camera lenses as well as film-style lenses with fixed focal lengths and primes.

“Designed in consultation with the filmmaking community, the AF100 eclipses the video performance of other cameras in this price range,” said Joe Facchini, Vice President of Sales & Product Management, Media & Production Services, Panasonic Solutions Company. “Ideal for film schools and independent filmmakers, this affordable, digital cinematography camera employs an advanced professional AVC/ H.264 Hi Profile AVCHD codec compatible with a wide range of editing tools and affordable players.”

The AF100 incorporates a 4/3-inch, 16:9 MOS imager. The camcorder records 1080/60i, 50i, 30p, 25p and 24p (native) and 720/60p, 50p, 30p, 25p and 24p (native) in AVCHD’s highest-quality PH mode (maximum 24Mbps). Ready for global production standards, the camcorder is 60Hz and 50Hz switchable.

The AF100 maximizes the potential of its high-resolution imager with built-in ND filtering and dramatically reduced video aliasing. Standard professional interfaces include HD-SDI out, HDMI, time code recording, built-in stereo microphone and USB 2.0. The AF100 features two XLR inputs with +48V Phantom Power capability, 48-kHz/16-bit two-channel digital audio recording and supports LPCM/Dolby-AC3.

This newest Panasonic AVCCAM camcorder is the first to enjoy the benefits of advanced SDXC media card compatibility in addition to existing SDHC card support. (SDXC is the newest SD memory card specification that supports memory capacities above 32GB up to 2TB). With two SD slots, the AF100 can record up to 12 hours on two 64GB SDXC cards in PH mode

The AG-AF100 will be available by the end of 2010. Panasonic will support the AF100 with a three-year limited warranty (one year plus two extra years upon registration).

Yahoo introduces daily news-based series

NEW YORK — Yahoo's news site is launching a daily 90-second series based on its most popular stories. Yahoo says it is teaming with Toyota and the production company Reveille to make “Who Knew?”.

Panasonic is expected to launch its new 3D camcorder as indicated by an update on the company website. Someone at the Panasonic’s web team mistakenly updated a page revealing information about the camcorder before its official launch.

The indications are that the camcorder will officially be unveiled on 28th July 2010 at a company event in Tokyo. The HDC-SDT750 appears like a traditional camcorder but is “World’s first 3D Shooting Camcorder,” according to the company. The camcorder with its image processor and the 3D lens kit is expected to cost a bit more than the 2D version, according to the leaked information.  

The SDT750 will be able to shoot in 1080p AVCHD at 60fps and will feature Hybrid O.I.S. image stabilization technology from Panansonic. Tech portals are claiming that it not a new camcorder but the older 3MOS model with a 3D coversion lens.

The Panasonic HDC-SDT750 consumer-grade 3D camcorder is also expected to be among the cheapest ways to get a device with such features. The cam will start shipping weeks after it is officially unveiled and is expected to some only in black color.

The company has reportedly removed the pages that contained the details about the 3D camcorder from its website.

Thin and light notebooks are very portable by design, and with the Fujitsu LifeBook P3010 for $790.90 you get decent specs too. The AMD Athlon Neo MV 40 CPU is in the same weight class as the Intel Atom CPUs, and ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics card is low end, but for thin and light notebooks they’re typical. More universally normal is the 320GB hard drive, 2GB of RAM, and Windows 7 Home Premium. The screen is small at 11.6in, but the 1366×768 resolution is decent. General computing will be straightforward, but games more intensive then F.E.A.R. at low settings are out of the question.

Even among thin and light notebooks this one is lithe, weighing 1.6kg and measuring 285×209x30.2 mm. If your main reason for buying a notebook is portability, you get a good deal from the Fujitsu LifeBook P3010.

See the ad below.

As you can see, the Lifebook S710 is very fast in CPU and overall tests because of its speedy SSD but fails in 3D related tests due to the lack of a discreet GPU present on both the Sony Z and the Lenovo Edge Notebooks.

Battery life is decent on the Lifebook S710 considering the high specifications. We managed to get almost four hours out of it. Replacing the optical drive with another battery should hopefully last you over six hours. The laptop didn’t very loud or hot during our testing either.

With a street price is AED 6250 (US$ 1700), the S710 is a bit on the higher side. Yes, it has some incredible specs but at the same time, a discreet GPU or a higher res screen could’ve justified it costs.

I bought this several weeks ago when it was on sale. I am happy with it. The footage it produces is very good, the low light performance, while not great, is acceptable. It is very small and very easy to use, and the optical image stabilizer is fantastic.

Panasonic PV-GS31 MiniDV Camcorder w/26x Optical Zoom measures just 31/4 by 21/2 by 41/2 inches and weighs less than a pound. Among the other innovative features included on these models is the easy to use one-touch navigation. A convenient thumb wheel lets the user quickly access major functions such as JPEG playback, memory-card recording, and tape recording, while a new joystick allows easy navigation of the controls using the thumb only.

The new camcorder models were developed to maximize the quality of the video recording by concentrating on those features that consumers will use most often. One such feature is the image-enhancing MagicPix, which creates rich videos under low-light conditions. An Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) system compensates for hand and camcorder jitter. A digital still camera feature can be used to snap still images and save them to an SD Memory Card, and USB capability provides a convenient way to transfer digital video and still images to a PC for archiving, e-mailing, and more. The also includes USB 2.0 high speed with Motion DV studio video-editing PC software for editing video footage.

Questions to Ask Your Wedding Photographer

I made some Pics in the last weeks – please tell me if you like them:

{Photocollage billig drucken lassen

Photography is not only a profession many enjoy; it is fast becoming an extremely popular hobby since the introduction of digital cameras. So if you have a budding photographer in your family or circle of friends here are the top ten gift ideas for a beginner photographer, taking into consideration they already have a camera.

1. Photography book
Whether your beginner photographer is aspiring to become a competent amateur or sought after professional there are some basics of photography that they will need to learn. Today there are some excellent photography books on the market and one or more of these are an excellent gift idea for a beginner photographer. Books that beginners would appreciate include those cover composition and image editing. One of the best books on exposure is called Understanding Exposure Revised Edition by Bryan Peterson and it a must for any photographer. It has stunning photo examples and techniques are explained in simple to understand terms.

2. Camera Care Kit
Whether your beginner photographer is using a relatively simple point and shoot camera or learning to use their first digital SLR properly, looking after their camera will be important. Pay a visit to a local camera shop an put together a camera care kit that includes a camera cloth, lens cleaner and book on how to care for your camera.

3. Filter
One piece of equipment that photographers use is a filter. There are a large variety of filters that serve different purposes. One of the best filters to give a beginner photographer is a polarizing filter. A polarizing filter helps to remove atmospheric haze and greatly improves the colour quality of a photograph. It is one of the first filters a photographer should have, making it a top gift idea for a beginner photographer. When choosing a filter it will be important to know the exact camera model the beginner photographer has to ensure it will fit properly. Sometimes it is required to purchase a special attachment piece.

4. Spare Battery and Charger
Digital cameras use a lot of battery power and it is always best to have one or two spare while out shooting, just in case the power runs out. Digital cameras take different kinds of batteries. If possible get rechargeable ones and purchase the correct charger to include with the gift. You will need to know the camera model for this gift as not all cameras take the same batteries.

5. Camera Bag
A snazzy, roomy camera bag is a great gift idea for a beginner photographer. Look for a durable bag that has waterproofing, sufficient padding and plenty of places for extra lenses, batteries and memory cards. Low Pro is a common camera bag maker and makes some of the best camera bags.

6. Memory Cards
If your beginner photographer is using a digital camera then the gift of memory cards will be happily received. There is nothing worse than being on a trip or out shooting than seeing a great shot and not having any more room on the memory card. So any photographer will want to have a few spare to ensure nothing gets missed.

7. Photo Printer
With the popularity of digital cameras came home photo printers. There are a large amount of photo printers available that allow photographers to print their own photos at home. Due to the popularity the price of these printers is reasonable and you are certain to please any beginner photographer with this gift.

8. Photo Paper
One thing your beginner photographer will want to do is print off their photos to share, so one of the top ten gift ideas for a beginner photographer is photo paper. Photo paper comes in a variety of sizes. You may want to get an assortment of sizes or a specific size that fits the photo printer of your beginner photographer.

9. Photo Album
A gift of a photo album will be welcome with smiles of thanks by your beginner photographer. Photo albums come in all shapes and sizes with a variety of plain and themed covers. Use your knowledge of the recipient to pick an album that would suit their tastes. One thing you will want to ensure it that the album contains acid free paper, this will ensure that the photographs are better preserved.

10. Notebook and Pen
When a beginner photographer is learning it is a good idea for them to take note of the photographs they are taking such as the weather, exposures used and photo numbers. This will allow them to correctly analyse their work to see where they went wrong and what they did right. Try to pick a good quality notebook maybe leather bound and a good quality pen that they can keep in their camera bag.
