Thanks for the head's up! We did a massive update on our content management system last night, and it looks like the pagebreak tag no longer works. Lovely! I've temporarily placed all the content for this article on 1 page.

Cropping

"A second strategy is to crop tightly, eliminating superfluous or less-important details ..."

Not always true with "in-camera" cropping. I shoot for catalog AND web. Both mediums using the same images from a shoot. True, that cropping cuts down on clutter, and helps recognition with subject matter for smaller media, but our web images start at 400x400 pixels and go down from there. When I DO crop, I'm always hit with, "Is this ALL of the image you have," is what I hear from either or both catalog layout AND web production.

Bottom Line: Takes LOTS of photos to make sure everybody is happy! Take horizontal and vertical shots. With today's higher resolution digital cameras, not a lot will be lost by post production cropping!

Photos for viewing on hand-held devices or even smaller use

Thanks for the well written article. I agree with your forward thinking aspect of framing a shot for the intended use. I'm constantly reminded of this when taking photos and then viewing them on camera. Where most photos have been taken for viewing on something other than the camera lcd, precise cropping to the action, I think, produces a more dynamic photo.

Shooting for the web

Great info. Glad I happen to find this. One question still lingers however: Would a $1,000 SLR camera make a worthwhile difference over my $400 Sony HX1? I'd love a reply from a knowledgeable source on that. Thanks
