General Stock Discussion / Re: Good Old Days of Microstock - Question about Success of Yuri Arcurs
« on: August 05, 2018, 05:39 »
I'm not completly sure that you understand what to quote someone realy means..... ;)

anyway, nobody said that he doesnt know how to make money, but comentary was on that that he wouldnt
come back to stock...and he made a million dollar company that prints photos like crazy plus he still puts photos in his own port...
...so he is a bullshiter.  ;)

Stay on the point of conversation, dont weep about time when there was 200.000 pics on stock agencies and 2000 photographers and talk about good business...  ;)

Nope he would not come back to stock not the way we know and sell stock. Spoke to him about 5,6 months back and he sure knows the market is ruined. His company still sell stock though but not as microstock!
So has he got out of his Getty/iStock contract and isn't uploading there any more?
Nope, this one is from July 18th this year:

this one is from august 03.2018.

Hello,
thank you for advice, i have a question for you as a user of tg-5,

does it have manual controls in video mode, can you fix iso, aperture, shutter speed  or its all auto?
And can you suggest any good hand held stabilization for it..some that can take rough weather and water...

Thank you.

ok, but how can you get to Signature + collection?
As i understand while you are non-exclusive all of yours images end in essential collection no matter quality of them..only way to get in signature or signature + collection is to be exclusive....

And btw no matter what they put in their eula you can always delete images..only you will need some court room for that  ;)
or a not even decent hacker to fu** up their web port...  ;)
never underestimate the power of "violence"...they practise same crap on us...  ;D ;D ;D ;) ;) ;)

Video Equipment / Sofware / Technique / GoPro vs Oly TG-5 vs Nikon W300
« on: June 14, 2018, 05:03 »
Hello and greetings.

I would like to ask for some help/experience from someone who had used these equipment or who have experience in
footage/video.

What im interested in is
- does any of those cameras can be "good enough" for making 4k footage that will be/can be excepted by stock sites (after pp ofc).
And if can, which of them would you recomend???

I mean for shooting footage in extreme situations, like underwater, heavy rain, stormy weather, mud, rivers, swamps and similar.

Thank you.

Did anyone tried this - you upload your images/footage while non-exclusive and then when and if you decide to become
exclusive you delete all yours previous images/footage and reupload them then as exclusive so they change collection
and go from essentials to signature???

Is it even possible???

Thank you.
Stay well.
