PhotoNetCast #24 – Filters in the Digital Age

This time we go into the latest mass copyright infringement and we answer a question by one of our listeners regarding the use of filters.

Filters in the Digital Age

One week later than usual (my fault), PhotoNetCast is back. This time we go into the latest mass copyright infringement: how memes are encouraging image theft on Facebook and Flickr. Also, we answer a question by one of our listeners regarding the use of filters to improve digital photography: are they still worth it? And what a great discussion with very dissonating opinions this was. This and more, on PhotoNetCast #24.

PhotoNetCast #20 – Buying used photography equipment

For the first show of 2009 we discuss the “art” of buying used photographic equipment.

Buying used photography equipment

After more delay than expected and after a fight with editing and processing, here it is the latest PhotoNetcast.

On episode 18 we mentioned that we would approach the “buying used equipment” subject. With everyone (ok, almost everyone) running a tight budget, used equipment can be a great way to upgrade your photographic inventory. But not only that, sometimes used equipment is the only way to get items that are not in production anymore.

Unfortunately, not everything is perfect with this approach and there are some risks involved. We discuss some of the things you should be aware when buying used equipment and how you can make the best out of your investment.

 

As always, your feedback is very much appreciated. If you have any other recommendations for online (or offline) locations for buying used equipment, make sure you let us know.

And if you can spare a few minutes, a review on PhotoNetCast on the iTunes store would be great.

Thanks for your support.
