[@patrickg2410]

I was a stringer photojournalist for AP WAY back in the 70's. Watching the events as they happened and then watching this video took me back into the Zone. I was one of the press pool photographers photographing Pres. Jerry Ford. The rules were 1) GET THE SHOT! 2) Get the really GOOD shots. After that it was off to the darkroom for a couple hours more work. With a motor driven Nikon FTN, it was 3 FPS at 1/1000. Burns through a 36 exposure role of Tri-X (ISO 400) in 12 seconds. The modern camera equipment makes it so much easier to concentrate on getting the shot.

[@clabart]

But you were better with manual focus analog cameras than today's photographers (without anything detracting from their skill) who have 120 ftg/s cameras, instant and subject-tracking autofocus, ISO auto, sending real-time photos to the editorial staff.

[@patrickg2410]

@@clabart True. We were more "One with the Camera". Had to follow focus and learn to anticipate the shot. Had to set ISO, shutter and aperture in advance. If you took the camera away from your eye, it was poke and hope. No shooting a half dozen shots then looking at the rear screen to see what you got. When you are concentrating on that, something else may be happening that you are now missing. You'll see what you got back in the darkroom when you put a mostly dry photo on the Fax machine.

[@patrickg2410]

@@truthsayers8725 72 to 76 here. Ordered Tri-X by the carton. No color. Didn't have the time to do three color separations. As well as most papers didn't print color unless it was for the Sunday editions front page. Pushed processed Tri-X in acufine all the way up to 1200 for basketball, volleyball and indoor track & field. And you're right about zooms. Vivitar was king back then in the zooms. Todays zooms are so much better than primes back then. I guess progress does have its place.

That bullet photo is insane. Even though the bullet has motion blur, it shows how far technology has come.

[@tienmou68]

Nonsense - it is not the bullet. It is the humidity in the air becoming visible for an instant as the bullet cuts thru the air increasing the air pressure and then the air decompressing instantaneously. As air rapidly decompresses it cools from the Venturi effect and moisture in the air condenses out and becomes visible - in this case, for an instant. The bullet itself would have appeared as a blurry mass at the front of the humidity trail if it was photographed.

[@kamilm6616]

@@tienmou68 nice nobody asked about ballistics. It's still impressive that a modern still camera captured the moment with such clarity without being some fancy slow motion camera.

If I were still teaching, I'd play this in my class followed by discussion. Fascinating that the images were transmitted so fast. The initial reaction from conservatives was the image without the flag was cropped. Now looking at this, I believe it was just the angle the photographer was shooting at.

Wow, this is an amazing breakdown of all of these incredible photos. I honestly would have a much harder choice picking the winner after watching this. Moneymaker’s photo is incredible because it captures Trump’s state of mind after he was hit. He looks shocked, in disbelief, there’s so much chaos, you can see him processing the situation he’s in. The photo with the bullet…wow, you’re so right. That picture could have been much more gruesome. I like that it’s also direct proof that it was a bullet that flew by and not a shard from the teleprompters which were all still intact when this event happened. The picture with the flag is undoubtedly iconic for sure, but the other photo also captures the resilience Trump decided to show after he’d regained some composure. What’s clear to me is these photos are all incredible, and they’ll all capture a part of this story. I feel like you need all of them!!

Jared - you are a master of breaking down complex photographic elements, into a well understood breakdown for average amateurs to respecting pros who’d watch or listen. As an amateur who always dreamed of being a pro since watching pro photographers with worn out Nikon and Canon bodies dinged and banged with 4 cameras dangling and big to small lenses. Those cameras looked like shiny metal objects with some black remaining, they showed these guys are pros with extra film backs connected. Fast forward, this is a great breakdown you made. great work, as always since Covid when I found you - I love your work. Keep it up.

Great analysis of these photos, Jared! As photographers: let’s all appreciate these photos and the moments they captured. This is professional photography behaviour working in tandem with super great gear allowing to pick the decisive moments. Great pictures to adequately cover the event - as scary as it is. And super great professionalism of the people taking the images, knowing only too well that they were documenting a piece of history. Thank you, photographers for your dedication and professionalism, we amateur photographers salute you!

The video interview of Doug Mills on how he captured the path of the bullet includes the metadata page from the shot--I was able to get a screen grab of the page (sorry, I'm unable to paste it into this comment). Yes, he was shooting with the Sony A1, f/1.6, 1/8000. So he was using a fast lens that allowed him to shoot at 1/8000 and capture the trail.

This is one of the best photography videos I’ve ever seen on YT…as well as one of the best from Jared. Well done 🤙🏼

I made an IG and FB about these same photographers... talking about how these amazing people do their job well. I can totally relate as a Journalistic Photographer for Corporate Events.... you have to be willing to LISTEN to what is going on around you, WHILE Watching not only what your capturing, but around you for other opportunities and then GET the shot. It took me a few years to get this, but the biggest compliment I have always received is, how did you get that shot, we didn't see you.... so YEAH being Quick and to go unnoticed is another key quality of a great Journalistic Photographer. Jared, you seemed Rushed and unsettled for this video... I get it.

great, great video, I was hoping you would make it. Would love to see you interview the photographers and ask all the technical questions you brought up. Great job.
