Yuri,
Im trying to decide on weather to buy the cannon EOS 5D Mark II or the cannon EOS-1D Mark IV.
Im aware that you are a stickler on image sharpness and that it can be the determining factor weather or not your images are accepted or rejected from micro stock sites, the EOS 5D Mark II is a 21.1-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor with DIGIC 4 Image Processor. and the EOS-1D Mark IV has An APS-H sized 16.1 Megapixel CMOS Sensor, Dual DIGIC 4 Image Processors. The IV is $4999.00 and the Mark ll $2499.00
Which would you recommend? Thanks.

Dear Yuri, I did an MA in Fine Art (painting) 4 years ago in London and one of the big areas we discussed was ‘Punktum’ the sweet spot in a painting or an image. This relates to a small part of an image that is not immediately noticed but is fundemental to and adding meaning and time into an image. The hand on the top photo is a classic example of that.
I do have an issue with stock photography with it’s blandness and ‘No Uglies’ response from Agencies and clients but that is not our fault just their ignorance of what constitutes an arresting image.

Well I always like to play the angles…and I think as I learn this business.. I will apply that to my Photography….and pick my mentors carefully.
I’m a Professional Musician as well…and to be really that good in the Music Business…..you have to be very fluent and very very creative in your playing.

As an illustrator I like making a lot of abstract and crazy forms and then let my imagination create from that…sometimes good stuff comes out of that mess!!!

That’s definately a different style. People might say there’s not enough negative space or you haven’t paid enough attention to your layers. It’s a step or five away from traditional ‘perfectly perfect’ microstock, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It gets a bit sterile, I think. Thanks for the write up and samples.
