If you don&#8217;t make that image now, then you don&#8217;t have the passion&#8230; even if you do want to get to supper and don&#8217;t want to get the tripod out again!<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, I find it hard to reconcile that passion with the demands of a young family, so my photography takes a back seat these days and it seems to me that much of the images I create are distinctly mediocre.  Some of that mediocrity can be enhanced post-capture but that&#8217;s a time consuming process &#8211; and anyway, it&#8217;s much better to get it right first time.<\/p>\n<p>But is digital editing is <em>really<\/em> that bad?  After all, with traditional (non-digital) methods, photographers have always used filters and darkroom techniques to enhance their images.<\/p>\n<p>Even the viewfinder acts as a censor, selecting just the part of the overall scene that the photographer wants to appear in the final image.  The trouble is that I find that the 3:2 aspect ratio used for 35mm film and by many digital cameras often doesn&#8217;t seem &#8220;right&#8221;.  Some photographers (e.g. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.charliewaite.com\/\">Charlie Waite<\/a>) specialise in square images whilst others go for a letterbox format &#8211; something that I&#8217;ve always been attracted to &#8211; largely under the influence of one of my favourite photographers, Australia&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.peterlik.com.au\/\">Peter Lik<\/a>.  It&#8217;s a pleasing format for the eye because it&#8217;s how people see.  Consequently it is often used for wide-angle landscapes (and so works well in places with a wide field of view) but it not exclusively a wide angle format and can work well for compressed images with a telephoto lens.<\/p>\n<p>Lik (alond with other notable landscape photographers like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.davidnoton.com\/\">David Noton<\/a> uses expensive 6&#215;17 panoramic format cameras with swing lenses but until recently there was an (almost) affordable way to take panoramic images using multiple frames on standard 35mm film &#8211; Hassleblad&#8217;s X System.  Unfortunately Hassleblad withdrew their excellent XPan II camera from sale last year.  I&#8217;d wanted one for a while but could never justify the expense (at least not once <a href=\"https:\/\/www.markwilson.co.uk\/blog\/2004\/09\/my-leap-into-digital-imaging.htm\">I purchased a digital camera<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>In the end, it was digital photography that killed off the XPan &#8211; I&#8217;d love for Hassleblad to make a digital XPan but the reality is that image sensors come in a particular size and there would be technical hurdles to overcome that would make the product too expensive. Anyway, single images can be stiched together post-capture and now that the quality of digital image sensors has caught up with (and even surpased) film, it&#8217;s hard to deride the convenience and low cost of digital photography.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m torn &#8211; should I save up for a second-hand XPan, buy a digital body with a higher-quality image sensor (so I can crop a decent quality panoramic photo from a single frame), or take separate images and stitch them together?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few years back, I heard UK-based photographer, Nick Meers speak in general terms about landscape photography saying that in order to capture that special image you need to be passionate &#8211; and you can&#8217;t come back tomorrow!
