Eolake Stobblehouse is a Danish internet pioneer whose websites are viewed by millions. Eolake's DOMAI.com was one of the first nude art websites, having been around since 1997 and is still one of the few successful commercial sites to feature artistic nude photography rather than hardcore images. Here we chat about the internet, being noticed as an artist, and making it a commercially viable living. The iPad looks nice. Will it really change publishing and what role do you see video playing? I'm excited about the iPad. To an embarrassing degree actually. I don't remember the last time I've been this excited about a ...

Above: Frames shot with the Panasonic GH1 and LA7200 anamorphic adapter © EOSHD.com I think maybe we've been to harsh on the shortcomings of HDSLRs. The 5D has moire, the GH1 has a duff codec, the Nikons have jello. Blah blah blah! Does any of it matter? I used to be very critical of the GH1's colour and codec in particular. But is a low bit rate even an issue if you use a 2k cinema projector and sit 50ft away from the screen? Isn't one way to boost the colour and contrast of your HDSLRs is to use a decent display technology ...
Affordable lenses that can grace the big screen! At first glance the Contax G rangefinder lenses of the 1990's would seem the perfect match for another 'G' system, of the 2010's… the Panasonic Micro 4/3rds cameras. Carl Zeiss engineered a set of 35mm 'G' lenses for the rangefinder, which was insanely expensive at the time of release. It was positioned to rival the Leica M series for performance! These lenses are better than Canon L for outright image quality and well underpriced on eBay (for now). Now thanks to Hong Kong eBay sellers you can use the Zeiss G lenses on the GH1 for video. We ...
EOSHD.com today interviewed award winning film-maker Kevin Shahinian of Pacific Pictures whose monumental effort on reality / fiction hybrid City of Lakes is turning heads in the film industry. Steve Weiss of Zacuto has been championing Kevin and for good reason - his use of HDSLRs, in particular the Canon 5D Mk II and 7D have taken the technology to new heights as you can see in the trailer for City of Lakes. Visit the City of Lakes trailer's Vimeo page here, or watch below... Shot on the Canon 5D Mk II and 7D, as you will see there is no difference (even to pixel peepers) ...
Just how good is the Panasonic LA7200? How sharp is it? Does it slow down your lens by eating light? Does it work on full frame? I've set about finding the answers. The LA7200 is very sharp and doesn't slow your lens down at all. It contains just 2 pieces of glass! There is virtually no light loss. Like any high performance machine, the 5D Mk II has a sweet spot. This appears to be between 45 and 55mm with the LA7200. Telephoto is out. More of a shame - super-wide angle is out. The 5D Mk II is an incredible camera but it has a much narrower sweet spot than the GH1. It's entirely down to lenses. ...
