Why is it that a lot of photographers think that Ansel Adams was such a great photographer when he wasn't??
Q. As a photographer, I can honestly say that I don't see anything so extraordinary about Ansel Adams' work. I mean...get real.

A. Ah - two of my favourite photographers - from past and present. First of, I must disagree with Mere Mortal on a couple of points. Gray is actually quite famous in his own sphere and country (plus also amongst a lot of his peers outside of OZ) Adams again is famous amongst his peers and "older" photographers in general because of his "zone system". He was a founding member of the f/64 group (along with Weston) and anyone who has studied photography (history) knows of him. You would have difficulty finding anyone who knew who they were outside of the photographic world these days. To me it more because of the timing rather than their skills which makes Adams the "more famous". For the majority of his work Gray uses a Fuji GX 617 camera… [cont.]

A. Depends what you want to do with it really... Photoshop Elements has an organiser which is very useful for managing large photo collections without having to keep track of folder names - you can tag each image with keywords and search on them (enabling you to find all your photos of bridges easily for example) - and does a very good job of editing too. Free software - Picasa for album management & some editing and GIMP for major adjustment. Photoshop CS3 if you have the cash and want to learn an industry standard.

Q. Which digital camera would Ansel Adams be shooting with today?
Asked by Mere Mortal - Tue Jan 6 15:49:11 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. It would be a digital scanning back on his large format camera. The majority of Ansel's work was with 8x10 and 4x5 large format photography. He has done some work with medium format film and played with small format, but almost everything he sold was large format. Those cameras provide a lot more control over the geometry of the picture before you click the shutter release. You can ensure all the lines are parallel that need to be parallel. Ansel did play with slide film before he died. It only stands to reason that he would experiment with digital as well. Since you can fit a digital back on an existing large format film camera, it is likely the path he would have chosen.
