Winter is one of the most exciting seasons for wildlife photography. Northern species return to their wintering grounds and bring life to an otherwise cold and barren landscape. Photographers and bird watchers alike yearn for this time of year, as owls and other birds of prey become more common. One of the most visited and coveted winter birdwatching spots in the US is the famous Sax-Zim Bog.

Reliable Wi-Fi is no longer a luxury—it’s essential. Most of our mobile devices require it; furthermore, scores of modern homes depend on it for basic (but smart) functionality, such as powering on lights, wirelessly controlling heating and cooling systems, A/V entertainment, security, and more. Add the pressure of working from home (as many people do) and it becomes even more vital that these systems work reliably and securely. Over the years, I’ve experimented with many different iterations of whole-home Wi-Fi (or “mesh systems” as they’re

Camera bags, just like cameras and the photographers who use them, are not created equal. That means there’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to finding the perfect bag. Most photographers will find that the type of bag they need varies from one shoot to the next—and may even depend upon where they’re going and what they’re shooting.
With so many bags out there to choose from, finding the one that’s perfect for your

When it comes to surveillance systems, the possibilities are endless. This can be intimidating and confusing for someone with limited knowledge about surveillance. Systems run the gamut from complex NVR kits with tons of cameras to simple bundles put together by the end user that require little more than a hub with a camera or two, an additional device, and Wi-Fi connectivity. For most users, the measuring stick for how well a system is designed is how intuitive it is to set up and operate. Ease of use is paramount. Sure, user manuals and

Every filmmaker in your life probably has a few basic wants—a million dollars to spend on their next project, a genius script idea that will send studio executives into a frenzy, and a special potion that will do away with the need for food, water, and sleep for as long as it takes to finish up an edit.

I needed a new camera bag. More specifically, I needed a new camera bag that didn’t look like a camera bag. Not something to carry all my gear—just a mirrorless camera with short tele attached, a 13" laptop, a few books, lunch, and other daily sundries. A commuter camera bag? A hybrid camera bag? Whatever you want to call it, my new bag needed to blend in on the subway and rest comfortably on my lap should I be lucky enough to score a seat. A

As the line between professional photography and videography continues to blur, one company has chosen to cater to this emerging class of hybrid shooters.
Sony released its first full-frame, interchangeable-lens cameras, the Alpha a7 and a7R, in 2013. With the release of these twin cameras, the company unknowingly embarked on what would end up being a five-year monopoly of the mirrorless camera market. Although not the very first mirrorless cameras of their kind, the a7 and a7R were immediately disruptive due to their revolutionary

It has probably happened to all of us—a missed photographic moment. We are photographers. We usually have a camera at the ready. But, for one reason or another, we miss a shot of a beautiful vista or a fleeting, but perfect, moment in time and we are left with nothing but the memory of the image that never was captured.
I asked my fellow B&H photographers, as well as our B&H Creative partners and affiliates, to share with us the heartbreaking story, or stories, of the photographs they have failed to capture.

“How do you make pictures about a person who doesn't exist anymore?” This was the fundamental question facing Jessica Hines while sorting through a box of her brother Gary’s letters, photographs, and other objects from his military service in Vietnam some 35 years after his return—25 years after his life ended in a battle with post-traumatic stress.
