PHOTO AND/OR VIDEO-JOURNALISM?

"Video is the future for Telegraph photographers" says Stuart Nicol, the newly appointed London's Daily Telegraph Executive Editor (Pictures).

He tells to EPUK that the future of the Telegraph’s photojournalism lies in shooting video.

“Digital stills photography will, when we look back on it, form a very small period of time in the history of photojournalism."

“Telegraph photographers will undoubtably be shooting solely on video in the future, and certainly within a year we hope to be well advanced down that route.”

At the Press Association, where Stuart Nicol has been Group Picture Editor since January this year, all of their 42 staff photographers are now equipped with £300 Canon S3 cameras for shooting internet-quality video in addition to their existing Canon stills cameras.
