PhotoNetCast #4 – Keeping your photos safe with regular backups and Embarrassing Moments

On today’s show we cover the backup procedure each of us uses and share some embarrassing moments / newbie mistakes we made in the field. We hope you like it.

Keeping your photos safe with regular backups and Embarrassing Moments

After three attempts we finally managed to release a show a little bit shorter. This is probably the length we are going to aim at on future episodes. What do you think? It’s too long still or good enough?

On today’s show we cover the backup procedure each of us uses and share some embarrassing moments / newbie mistakes we made in the field. We hope you like it.

And although we don’t mention it in the show, we have an open poll. We’d like to know a little more about your level in photography. This will help us plan what topics to cover on future episodes.

Also, there is a new way for you to interact with us besides the comments, email or voice messages. Let’s say that you are going through your regular blog posts and read something that interests you and you’d like for us to discuss in the show or at least share our point of view. Bookmark it on del.icio.us with the tag for:photonetcast and we’ll see it for sure.

And now, on with the show…

 

Show Notes

Backup your Photos

If you remember the last show, we were discussing how to organize your photos and ended the discussion before going into backups. In this show we go right into it and share our way of doing regular backups and what we do to prevent loss of files, even if something goes wrong with the drives.

Embarrassing moments / Mistakes on the field

Every photographer has, at some time or other, made mistakes that are typical of beginners. In this segment we share your own stories. We wanted to make it funny, but beyond that, we wanted to alert you to some errors that you can easily prevent. We’ve made them so that you don’t have to (well, not really, but you can always keep them in mind).
