Studio Photography Setup
Is a view camera (such as the Cambo X2 Pro) good for fashion photography and portraits?
I’ve been shooting with Nikon DSLRs with fast lenses and have always wondered about the benefits offered by view cameras with tilt and shift operations. The Cambo X2 Pro looks appealing in that I can convert my Nikon DSLRs into a view camera. Is this worth the investment? How practical is it to use a setup like that for studio fashion work?
A view camera is great for landscapes and traditional portraits.
It is little slow for the fast pace of fashion photography. Any decent digital FF camera would work for fashion photography.
