26 Most Expensive Cameras in the World

Whether you're a professional or not, everyone can appreciate the breathtaking beauty that surrounds us all the time. Everyone feels compelled to capture these amazing events and terrains since the earth is full with captivating components. The first time this dream was realized was in 1816. Even with the passage of centuries and the emergence of contemporary technology, the industry's cameras still owe their creation to innumerable rare and exceptional items. Every antique collector's dream come true, but there is a cost involved in expensive camera in the world

1. Leica 0 - No. 122 Series The Leica 0 - Series No.122, the most expensive camera ever sold, tops this list with a price that never fails to astound. This antique camera was produced in a small run of 25 in the early 1900s. It's interesting to note that this camera was only recently purchased by a private collector at a Vienna auction.

2. The 100C Hasselblad H6D Hasselblad, one of the best camera manufacturers in the business, has another one on this list. Because of its exceptional qualities, this camera is quite popular among historians who use it for documentation and reproduction of art. Being one of the very few high-end manufacturers that produces multi-shot cameras, the demand for this camera is through the roof.

3. Leica M3D – 2 Another ancient model, the M3D-2 was also a limited edition and was one of the priciest Leica cameras ever made. The Leica M3D, or "D" for Douglas Duncan, was made specifically for the combat photographer. It was auctioned off alongside another member of the same product line. DDD used this camera primarily to take pictures of his friend Pablo Picasso and the fighting in Vietnam and Korea. Recently, the company unveiled an updated, limited-edition version of this camera specifically designed for photographers.

You can name these sequences, or just output to the same name as the original compressed files. 3FV files into a flavor of ProRes or a cinema DNG sequence using Hasselblad’s Phocus software. Once you have shot something, you need to decompress the. Seriously don’t try and shoot handheld with anything over 24mm, especially if you are a heavy coffee drinker like me… As a result, prepare for noticeable rolling shutter effect, something I was ready for thanks to Christoph’s original review. I can’t seem to verify if it is using a method such as pixel binning, but nonetheless, this is quite amazing as it is converting that lovely medium-format look from the 12K sensor to 4K compressed raw video on the fly. The whole width of the sensor is being used, with the tops and bottoms cut off to create 16:9 aspect video. The 256GB CFAST2.0 cards I used held around 20 minutes worth of data. Why I say “around” is that it doesn’t tell you how much space is left on the card while you shoot, leaving you to guess and backup as you go. The Hasselblad H6D-100c shoots UHD 4K video to CFAST2.0 cards in a proprietary compressed raw format with a.

So, two full days of testing and two all-nighters to make workable rigs for my usual fast-paced shooting style later and I was ready to head out to the track to film a popular drifting event I originally intended to shoot with Blackmagic’s URSA Mini Pro. And, funnily enough, it seemed that I wasn’t the only one that wanted to see what this camera could do in the field. This only served to fuel my interest, eventually leading me to chat with an old colleague that had recently started working at Hasselblad here in Japan. But, to my surprise, after scowering the internet for days there wasn’t really much in the way of other detailed reviews or footage. The images had something special about them to my eye and I wanted to know more. I’m sure I’m not the only one who took a peak at Christoph Tilley’s write-up about medium-format video on the H6D-100C last year. Intrigued? Read on for his hands-on impressions. In this guest review, Osaka-based filmmaker Matthew Carmody takes a close look at the Hasselblad H6D-100c – a 100MP, 4K Raw-capable medium format camera.

Illusion (Surrealism) - Artist Research

ERIK JOHANSSON

“The only thing that limits us is our imagination.”

Erik Johansson (born 1985) is a photographer and visual artist from Sweden based in Prague, Czech Republic. His work can be described as surreal world created by combining photographs. Erik mainly works on personal projects and doing exhibitions around the world. In contrast to traditional photography he doesn't capture moments, he captures ideas with the help of his camera and imagination. The goal is to capture a story in a single frame and to make it look as realistic as possible even if the scene itself contains impossible elements. In the end it all comes down to problem solving, finding a way to capture the impossible.

WORK PROCESS

For Erik it's always important to include a high level of realism in his work. He want's the viewer to feel like they are part of the scene. Although his work consists of a lot of work in post-production and combining photographs he always tries to capture as much as possible in camera on location. It often means building props and using creative ways of planning the shoot.

Light and perspective are crucial parts when combining images in a realistic way and if some parts are not possible to shoot on location, a similar scene has to be built up in a controlled environment. Having an understanding every step from idea and planning, photography and post production is very important to make everything come together seamlessly. Every photograph and part has its purpose.

Erik always does all the post production himself to be in complete control of the end result. The idea, photography and post production are all connected. The final image doesn’t become better than the photographs used to capture it. Just like the photographs don’t become stronger than the idea.

There are no computer generated-, illustrated- or stock photos in Erik's personal work, just complex combinations of his own photographs. If you'd like to know more about the process of how the images come to life have a look at these Behind the Scenes Videos.

EQUIPMENT

Camera: Hasselblad H6D-100c + X1D-II Light System: Profoto Computer: Custom Built PC + MacBook Pro Monitor: Eizo ColorEdge CG318-4k Software: Adobe Photoshop CC + Lightroom

IMAGES

Here are some of the artist’s creations. The depth, colour and tones of his images create different senses of mood and atmosphere. Every image depicts an idea which can evoke a variety of emotions and reactions. I also find the style of some work is very cinematic.

I find a sense of escapism in his art. He has composed images photographing elements of realism that have been connected and transformed to create surreal, dreamlike possibilities with a sense of familiarity.

Insightful interview with Photographer and Visual Artist Erik Johansson (for wexphotovideo.com) :

Erik Johansson combines multiple photographs in Photoshop to create surreal scenes that appear deceivingly real.

Erik Johansson’s images aren’t just visually pleasing, they’re devilishly clever too. No matter how implausible the image, Erik’s creations always look deceivingly real. As he puts it himself: “I create scenes that feel like they could exist in the real world, but at the same time, they couldn’t possibly.” To build his scenes, Erik combines multiple images using Adobe Photoshop and insists on only manipulating photographs of items from the real world or props (no CGI). Despite the complexity of each image, Erik insists that his works are simply the product of experimentation and meticulous planning. 

Your images resemble the work of surrealist artists such as Salvador Dali. Have artists influenced your work?

Erik Johansson: Yes. I would say I am definitely more influenced by artists than other photographers. This is reflected in the way I work; I plan and create scenes that don’t fit into the real world. Sometimes I capture the material I need with a camera and put everything together during post-production, and sometimes I make props and build the scene.

Did you study photography or art?

EJ: I come from a different background altogether. I didn’t study at art school; I studied to become a computer engineer. This may be reflective in the way I approach my work, breaking everything down into smaller problems. I create scenes that feel like they could exist in the real world, but at the same time, they couldn’t possibly. The planning takes a lot of time, I have to come up with a concept, build props and find a suitable location. I try to sketch ideas, but the majority never get realised. I proceed with what I believe will work and look good in the end.

Do you use any digital painting techniques to create your scenes?

EJ: Everything that goes into my work is photographed. I don’t use Adobe Illustrator or any form of CGI. I set myself these limitations because they aid my creativity. In a way, the possibility to do anything can be limiting, setting myself this rule helps to provide me with direction.

Do you consider yourself a photographer, illustrator, artist or designer first?

EJ: I guess, in a way, I’m some kind of visual artist that uses photography as a means to create the ideas in my mind… But that’s a long title [laughs]. When people ask me what I am, I say I’m a photographer. I’ve been called a Photoshop master, genius and wizard — of course it’s an important part of my workflow — but I’m not really a Photoshop magician. It’s about planning well, collecting materials and bringing everything together. So long as I have good material, the Photoshop bit is putting the pieces together. If you have a good idea and plan, it’s a straightforward process.

In your YouTube video Full Moon Service - Behind the Scenes concept drawings are displayed on a pin board in your office. Is this how you conceptualise all of your artworks?

EJ: Yes, and I’ll work on several projects at the same time. The ideas that take the longest time to develop often become the most interesting. I have a board in my studio with a bunch of simple sketches on it, some are concepts, some I have materials for and some I’m putting together. Right now, I have two or three ideas that are almost finished.

The way I create my work hasn’t changed much over the past five years. I pick ideas very carefully before working on them because they are such long projects; that’s why I plan well, rarely will I quite halfway through an idea. I usually work with a small budget — I can’t just hire a helicopter for example — so some ideas that aren’t practical right now, I’ll carry around for the future.

I had the idea for Demand & Supply (project) almost 10 years ago. I never really knew where it would take place, but I eventually travelled to the Faroe Islands for a commissioned project and found an amazing rock formation, which was perfect for my idea. Finding a place can be the spark sometimes.

Where do your initial ideas or concepts come from?

EJ: I get inspiration from looking at the things around me and making unexpected associations with them. I ask myself, almost in a childish way: ‘How can I make something different?’ Usually, I don’t just come up with an idea for a project, it’s a smaller idea. I’ll sketch it out and then I’ll combine lots of these little ideas and let them grow over time. We’re all born creative. Children play and make up games, but I think grown-ups can be childish too; we just have to question the norm.

How did you learn to manipulate photographs so well?

EJ: I always liked drawing. As long as I can remember, I’ve liked to draw and express myself visually. I’ve also been quite interested in computers. My dad had a computer quite early on, in the 1980s, and I enjoyed playing simple games. When I got my first digital camera on my 15th birthday, in 2000, I realised I could combine the two interests. That was the first step.

Although I enjoyed drawing, I couldn’t express myself in the real way I wanted to, but my camera could capture a real moment and I could manipulate it. I started with simple projects; I took photographs of my sisters, cut them out and put them on a rooftop, I added an extra finger onto a photo of my hand. I learned the basics by playing around, but never though it could earn me a living — that’s why I followed my other interest, computers.

Do you stockpile images of random objects for future projects?

EJ: I have a library of certain things: trees, landscapes and skies — I always shoot skies, you can never have enough. I like to shoot new material for the main parts of a project. It’s always a little bit of a compromise to use existing assets as I usually have an idea as to what I want the perspective, angle and lighting to look like. As such, 90% of the time I shoot new material. This is perhaps, partly, why projects take so long.

You use a graphics tablet. Do you have any tips for anyone who hasn’t used one before?

EJ: Around 50% of my time editing is spent using a graphics tablet, so I’m not completely used it. The tablet is very good for certain tasks and provides you with more possibilities as it’s pressure- and tilt-sensitive. As for tips, around 10 years ago I bought a keyboard without any letters on the keys, which forced me to learn to touch-type. I think the same goes for graphics tablets; hide your mouse and you’ll be forced to use it.

Do you have any tips for anyone who wants to start producing surrealist images like yours?

EJ: Don’t use stock photography, and shoot everything yourself. Also, don’t be afraid to get started. I’ve had a lot of ideas and completed a lot of projects, but I only show my best work. You need to experiment and try ideas to find your style. There are lots of good photographers out there, so a way to stand out from the crowd is to find something you have access to that other people don’t. Maybe you live somewhere or own something unique, maybe you know someone who is good at making props. For me, I started shooting the landscapes and places where I grew up; 89% of everything I photograph is within a 10 to 20km radius. Don’t wait for the perfect moment to materialise either, sometimes you just have to get started. There are no shortcuts, only by shooting, succeeding, failing and hard work will you find your style.

You’re a Hasselblad ambassador. What drew you to Hasselblad equipment?

EJ: My work is about creating surreal, realistic places. The realism is captured in the detail, and Hasselblad cameras capture superior image quality. I was a customer before becoming an ambassador and picked the brand, not just because of the resolution, but the way it captures colours. I use the compact X1D-50c and H6D-50c — when it comes down to really big prints with lots of detail, to me, it’s the only choice.

STEPHEN MCMENNAMY - Photo Manipulation

Art director Stephen McMennamy has such keen eyes and has been artfully combining photos of unrelated items to create a collection of playfully surreal scenes. His ongoing digital collage series, titled ComboPhotos, is just as joyful as it is thought-provoking. From cauliflower dog to spaghetti brush, from banana boat to egg lightbulb, McMennamy’s whimsical mashups visualise his childlike sense of imagination.

Upon first glance, the images in McMennamy’s photo project may look like surreal photo-manipulations created using Photoshop, they are actually the result of a much simpler process.

For each image, McMennamy carefully shoots two photographs and creatively arranges them side-by-side to create imaginative new scenes.

“Its really just about looking around and seeing what things are out in the world that might make for an interesting fit or what would make for a nice contrast once combined. As far as process, its just a matter of me hunting things down and aiming for the cleanest shot possible/“

McMennamy says he looks for simple backgrounds that allow the viewers’ eyes to focus on the combinations. Some of the photos were shot in his garage, while others were on the side of the road after spotting something.

Many of the early images in his photo project were actually shot using an iPhone. But McMennamy then purchased a new camera to improve the quality of his images also occasionally using a drone to capture aerial photos.
