I use a custom version of slog2 and color correct from there. Very little needed

I have dropped my Exclusive Status in video there this past month. I have been exclusive with iStock/Getty since 2007. I am ever grateful for the people that helped me there. There are still great people in the video dept. My sales have gone down overall over the past 12 months, I was treading water but could never seem to grow. It was a business decision for me so I will let you know how being non-exclusive video turns out for me over the next year. I am excited about the future and have gained a life and skill set I never had before. I have been living on stock full-time since 2010! My second boy was born in 2010 so I will never regret the time I have been able to spend with my family even if I lost it all today. I have been blessed and look forward to the future.

If I don't like Pond5 I don't have to submit my work there! I am fine with it. There will always be a market for good unique quality work. I have been shooting stock full-time for 6 years now, I understand the market and markets change.

iStock/Getty has been great for me to learn to shoot stock. My income has been falling for months no matter what I shot so I found it time to move on. I could go on a rant about them but in all honesty this is just a business decision. I want to focus on high end 4k work for the most part and if Stocksy opens for video I would try there. If not I will do exclusive shoots for Dissolve and other stuff I will spread out to others. I can't see the sense in shooting more and more just to see my income go down for months. Getty can be good and the next mont I will have 80% of the video sales for $10.00 or less. I am just finished with the games of that. Still love what I do and I know there is a long few months ahead as my clips get indexed. I do other video work as well so I won't go hungry :-)

I have dropped my exclusive status and this is one reason why! I don't care to sell 4k the same as HD, I will not and have stopped loading any 4k to iStock.

Thankful I have not dropped that bad but I can never seem to go up. I have dropped my Exclusivity!

Mostly other work but I have sold clips through social media as well.

Because of posting my work on social media I have gotten thousands of dollars of work from people. So in an indirect way
it does make me money!

Please stop with the growing and sustainable crap!! others pay 50% and are doing just fine! It is money that makes me happy! Take a case lesson on what happened at iStock with these sustainable changes. Getty has nothing to fear from 500px! Sorry but I thought you learned from your mistakes. Don't submit there anyway, just frustrated to see bad business choices made.

I have an Oly EM1 and just love it! Went from a Canon 5d Mark II for it and no regrets after 2 years. I use it now and then for video as well and does better then expected.

I do want to say thanks to Mat for being professional and patient with the questions that come here! It means a lot to artist to see communication from the top and is reassuring of the future!

Well my RR files are about worthless now! I feel like I have been mugged and kicked.
