Canon have unwisely omitted an all important headphone jack from the 6D. Without it there is no way to monitor what you are actually recording in the camera – the same as older cameras like the 5D mkII, 7D and 60D.

thinking more about the value of what I call “social photography,” and what I’ve concluded is that some of it is not photography at all. Let me explain by breaking down categories of social photography that I’ve observed in my Instagram feed:
Comfort images (food, pets, familiar places, sunsets)

Carolyn Drake ‘s project, Uyghur, documents Xinjiang, China in a variety of ways–by photographing objects as a way of visually journaling her thoughts and feelings, collaborating with the people she encountered in the province and asking them to reinterpret her photographs through drawing and text, and by showing us what was and what is. This three tiered way of capturing place gives us a rich tapestry of a province in transition.
