Professional Photo Magazine ISSUE 72 Zurück Ausgabe

The Olympics has been a celebration of human achievement but also a platform for some stunning sporting imagery. If, like me, you’ve been glued to the Olympics on TV, you’ll have witnessed some impressive achievements by the world’s top athletes. Having had the opportunity to visit the Getty Images set-up in the Media Centre at the Olympic Park during the Games, I can safely say there have also been some pretty outstanding accomplishments by photographers who have been covering the events as well. Take a look at our ten-page Special Report this month, which goes behind the scenes to reveal some of the cutting-edge technologies that the Getty team has been employing. Also in this issue we’re looking at the whole sector of fine art and self-publishing. Finally, don’t miss our head to head between the Nikon D800 and the Hasselblad H4D-31. Take a look to see how it all pans out! Terry Hope, Editor
