Just back from my Snow Monkey and Hokkaido Photography Tour and Workshops, today I’m going to give you some initial impressions of the new Canon EOS 1D Mark IV camera, which I picked up a few days before leaving for the Snow Monkeys workshop. This isn’t going to be a thorough review, rather my impressions as a 1Ds Mark III and 5D mark II user, based on a few weeks in the field.
Canon EOS 1D Mark IV
Also note that I’m not a sports shooter, I’m mainly a nature and wildlife photographer. If you want to read about how this camera fairs for sports photography, take a look at Rob Galbraith’s great review of the auto focus system on the 1D Mark IV, after you’ve read/listened to this.
Note too that I shot [...]

Today I’m going to take you through some of the basic operations of the X-Rite ColorChecker Passport.
With the preparation for my Snow Monkeys and Hokkaido Workshops, I really didn’t have time to prepare for a Podcast this week, but I had planned on talking about my new X-Rite ColorChecker Passport, which I have fallen head over heals in love with! Having prepared screen shots and everything, I figured it was probably going to take longer to prepare an audio Podcast and accompanying blog post with the screenshots, than it would take for me to just create a video and show you it all in real-time.
Here is the video. I’ll try to upload an iTunes and maybe also an iPhone version before I leave for the workshops, but for now, this is it. Don’t forget you can click the little full-screen icon to the right in the toolbar to [...]

The MBP Roundtable is back, after a two year break! Today I chat with Landon Michaelson and Dan Newcomb on some great photography related topics!
Landon Michaelson is a passionate photographer who enjoys photography, in some way, every day. In Landon’s day job as Lead Designer he gets to do a lot of photo making and uses them in layouts. He also owns Best Kept Secret Photography.
Dan Newcomb, A.K.A. Mr. Nikon in the MBP Forums, is a photo enthusiast from Vancouver, Canada. His day job as a technician in the telecom industry keeps him rather busy but he always makes the time for his photographic passion.
There’s no transcript for today’s Podcast as it was recorded live, but here are some of the photographs mentioned. Listen to the conversation in iTunes or with the audio player linked below.
The next four images are the Before and After images from Jared Fein [...]

Today it gives me great pleasure to announce the winners of the first MBP/WebSpy Photography Assignment accumulated vote winners for the last six month’s assignments. As you know, when our sponsors WebSpy came on board in July 2009, they kindly set by $1,000 for prizes for our assignment, and I arranged some great prizes for the three people with the most votes from your peers in the six assignments from July to November. So today, we not only hear who the November assignment winners are, we find out who takes the amazing prizes that we have lined up.
Also, WebSpy have kindly offered to continue to be our sponsors, and have put up another $1,000 for prizes for the next six months of assignments, so today I will also announce the prizes that will be given to the lucky [...]

WebSpy, sponsors of the Martin Bailey Photography Podcast, have once again kindly set aside funds for us to offer prizes for the next six month’s accumulated votes from each of our monthly assignments. The first assignment, for December 2009 is already in progress, so if you haven’t already started shooting for this, the theme is “Quiet Light”. Details can be found in the Photography Forum under the Assignment & Critique section.
For this coming assignment, we are actually going to give away fabulous prizes to the top five, not three, but five participants. We will keep a count of the votes each participant recieves from each month, and the five lucky photographers with the most votes when we complete the June 2010 assignment will win the following prizes.
Note that you don’t have to win every month. You don’t even have to enter every month to [...]
