Darrell Barton, perhaps the greatest TV news photographer ever, has died. https://nppa.org/news/legendary-tv-photojournalist-darrell-barton-73

Headed for Springfield, MA on US Airways with a brand new camera and our LiveU backpack. Was wondering how you pack the rest of your crap, what you take, and what you leave at home. I always carry the camera on, but I usually have my fanny pack loaded to the gills, and that's it. I'm being...

Didn't see this one on here, so here goes... http://www.freep.com/article/20130716/NEWS01/307160018/photographer-free-press-mandi-wright-video-arrested

I've got a brand new, shiny iPhone 5 on my hip. It's replacing a BlackBerry Tour. Was just wondering what some of you use it for besides calls, social media, etc., and what apps you've found particularly useful for news....er, (damn, almost did it again) CONTENT gathering. As an example, I've...

Anybody using this cell based live computer? Sitting in a demo session right now.

.....from Avid Newscutter XP (you read correctly, XP), to Edius 6 next week. Just went through two 4 hour training sessions. Any helpful hints out there on how to make it less painful? Thanks,

Was wondering how many of you are still covering the Men's NCAA Division I Basketball Tournament for your local TV station? If so, how are you covering it, i.e., one man bands, Skype, HD, SD, analog, recording feeds on site, still using satellite trucks, carrier pigeon? I just got back from...

Happy New Year lensfolk! Got a new 4th generation Ipod Touch from Santa, and was wondering what apps and other uses all you fellow newsgatherers have discovered that make your life and jobs easier. Thanks and blessings in 2011!

Anybody know who had their thinking cap on to make sure someone was rolling, presumably all night, on the interior of the Metrodome to get that collapse? I'm assuming it's someone at Fox Sports, but whomever it was, I'd sure like to know. Great job!

Glad I don't have to after reading this. What a crock. I feel for you guys that have to put up with this kind of crap. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/16/business/media/16poolphoto.html?_r=1&ref=politics

This is total BS. I tried to post a new thread at nppa.org, but it wouldn't let me. So if someone can do the honors, I think they should get HEAVILY involved here...go straight to the president, if necessary. http://www.newsweek.com/2010/05/26/the-missing-oil-spill-photos.html

What do you use for what situations, and how well does it work?

Anyone know who had the primary cam on Tiger that went out? I'm assuming it was pool, Iwas watching NBC in a drs office.

I realize this has probably been covered ad nauseum here before, so accept my apologies, but how does your shop shoot/record internet sites for paks and vo's? I know there's got to be a better way than pointing a camera at a monitor, I'm just not tech savvy enough to figure it out. Or our...

Saw this question in a forum on officer.com in the "Ask A Cop" subforum. Thought I'd throw it out here and see what sticks......:)

Is this a legal/reasonable order at a fatal accident scene?

I've worn my safety vest only a few times this past year, less than I figured I would have to. On two occasions, they were for traffic accidents. One was a fatal on the interstate that I shot from across the roadway (our company no longer allows us to cross), another was a car on it's side up...

There goes one......shock. http://www.televisionbroadcast.com/article/83710
