    Photo Compression Within NS Photos

    Just uploaded a photo on here and noticed that the compression was terrible. Any idea how much NS compresses it? Any chance we could get admins to allow for less compression so high quality files could look their best? Thoughts & comments appreciated.

    Advice on Contacting Companies for Sponsorships (Not Skiing)

    To preface I'm a photographer/ cinematographer with a relativity large social media following. I've noticed how other photographers with large followings get "sponsorship" from clothing, headwear, backpack companies & similar businesses. Obviously, it'd be cool to get gear from people, and in...

    Shooting at 30 vs 24fps - Your preference

    I haven't done much filming of skiing this year, but so far I've shot true 24fps and a bit of 60fps. I like the way the 24 blurs the background, but while using a Glidecam, if the skier isn't being tracked directly there can be a bit of strobing. (Also, does it look decent to shoot in 30 and...
