How long should PhotoNetCast’s episodes be?

Since the first episodes of PhotoNetCast we had listeners telling us that the show is too long, and listeners telling us that we should take the time we need. Time for a poll to help us decide the length of PhotoNetCast.

 

Since the first episodes of PhotoNetCast we had listeners telling us that the show is too long, and listeners telling us that we should take the time we need.

We have been quite liberal with the duration of the show and usually let the conversation flow. Having four people with different ideas to share results in shows of around one hour. We understand that not everyone has one hour to spend on a single podcast. And while this probably applies more to listeners that listen to the show directly on the web site, it’s everyone’s time.

So, it’s time for you to help us shape the show. Tell us what you think would be the perfect length for PhotoNetCast and we’ll try to adapt the show.

    Listener Poll: What percentage of your photos ends up as prints?

    Listener poll: From the photographs that you consider picks, what is the percentage that you actually see on paper?

    Long gone are the days when, at least for the average user, a good percentage of the photos taken would actually be printed.

    The process of dropping a film to be developed and getting back prints of every exposure or at least a contact sheet and then choosing some to be printed is forgotten in the digital age.

    Even for film shooters, nowadays, it’s a common procedure to get just the film developed and later digitalized for processing.

    So, what we want to know is, what percentage of your photos, whether digitalized from film or taken with your digital camera actually end up in print. To make it more realistic, don’t count the duds and exposures that you immediately reject.

    From the photographs that you consider picks, what is the percentage that you actually see on paper, either printed by you or in a lab?

    About one month ago we asked you what level of editing and processing was acceptable in photography.

    One week after we opened the poll we talked about some preliminary results. At the time 47 of you had voted and things were looking like photography should allow for complete creativity freedom in the edition process.

    After one month and 144 votes, the results changed quite a bit with "Anything needed, as long as the final result still resembles a photo" assuming clear leadership.

    Here are the final results of our poll:

    We want to thank all of you who participated.

    As a final question, if you voted after listening to the podcast episode, did our discussion influence your vote?
