Copyright is such a sticky issue. I’ve heard so many different (sometimes, wildly different) versions of copyright technicalities for both software and images. From what I’ve been able to glean over the years, though, your explanation and recommendations seem to be spot-on.

Steve, another good reason to have your name in the copyright section, is in the case that the CAMERA itself gets stolen - it's a little hidden gem of identity ownership, for recovery and evidentiary purposes.

Thank you Steve for guiding us the appropriate method of putting copyright info on pictures. Good video👍👍
Happy Newy Year and thanks for the reminder to update the info. It turns out that Nikon does provide the ability to enter the copyright information on the some of the consumer models. On the D5200 that I had converted to infrared, the Copyright information entry is missing from the SETUP MENU. Though it it possible to have copyright information added to the image using the Image comment menu entry located in the SETUP MENU. But you cannot distinguish the Artist and Copyright texts. B&H has several videos on the topic of copyright that are worth watching.

Hi, I wanted to ask yours, if you can answer me? I wanted to do some tutorials for Nikon D, but I don't know how you managed to get to the Nikon menu in the video, whether you recorded the display with the camera or it has to be downloaded somewhere from the Nikon site, so that you can virtually navigate and adjust the menu, to explain it more vividly to people, as you are currently doing with, say, this video. otherwise to your compliment you have very interesting and instructive videos.

On my Pentax (K3), the "Copyright" field has a character limit, and I'm not able to fit in the "all rights reserved" part. Is it necessary to type in the "Copyright" if the title of the field already says "Copyright"? I still wouldn't be able to fit it all in unless I did some abbreviating. Not that I'm that concerned about it...in fact, I think I'd be flattered if someone stole one of my images :) Anyway, thanks for the informative video, and Happy New Year!

Tom M: Skip including the text “All Rights Reserved.” In the US, it’s far *MORE* important to include the copyright logo or the text “Copyright,” or its abbreviation “Copyr.” If you have space, include your URL, email address, and/or social media handle so fans and licensees can find you. Tom M worte “I think I'd be flattered if someone stole one of my images.” Would you be flattered that instead of having to pay you a licensing fee of $250+, the infringer could keep that money? Would you be flattered if a million/billion dollar company, publisher, media entity was exploiting your images for FREE?! I sure hope not. BTW, if you’re based in the US and want to *FULLY* “enforce” your photo copyrights, they *MUST* be “timely” registered with the US Copyright Office.

@backcountrygallery4 жыл бұрын
Everything I’ve ever read about creating a copyright notice says to use the year, so I do. I also think, again, based on what I’ve read, that copyright infringement outcomes are quite dependent on the judge hearing the case and their interpretation. I’ve seen where a case was ruled against the photographer only to be overturned on appeal. So, it’s tricky. One judge might claim if it doesn’t have a year it’s no problem, another might say it’s not a true copyright notice because it lacks the year. Who knows? I’m not a copyright lawyer, so I can’t say for sure, but I for one am keeping the year in there :)
