Hosted by Antonio Marques, Jim Goldstein, Brian Auer and Martin Gommel, PhotoNetCast has a very conversational format in which both digital photography and film photography are discussed in an open and entertaining way. Our guests, people who matter in the digital photography world, bring additional value to the show and share their perspectives in today\'s photography.

We take a look at some of the basic properties you should pay attention to when starting processing the images.
Even in cases where you are not really intending to so serious post-processing on images, there are a few image properties that you will always have to check after import and will often have to modify slightly. In this show, we discuss those steps, describe what each of us does and mention a few tools that can help both during shooting (to minimise the need for any later adjustment) and during post processing. New Jersey photographer Scott Wyden joins us to give a helping hand to the discussion.
Such things like Exposure, White Balance (here’s a good explanation for white balance), some Colour tweaks, Noise reduction and Sharpening are all discussed with some explanation on why we do these adjustments.
On the news, we discuss IKEA slowly shedding photography for computer generated images, Kodak set to quit film and photo paper business, the imminent release of the Nikon D600 and the Super-Ultra-Mega new standard for video, the Hi-Vision 8K (is 7680×4320 pixels enough?).
As always, any feedback is appreciated, and if you have any questions for us to answer on the show, go ahead and send them our way.

Welcome to another episode of your photography podcast.
Today we take a look at the results of our poll on our listeners’ photography spending habit. We also mention a new 500px export plugin for lightroom, bash Getty Images yet again for their cuts to photographers’ royalty percentages, and discuss photography as collectible art after the record-breaking $4,338,500 value reached at auction for “Rhein II”, a gigantic print by Andreas Gursky.
On this topic, while I like the idea of photography being sold for such prices, and getting the recognition it deserves as collectible art, there is the question of the perceived vs real value of such a print. What are your thoughts on this? Do you think the prices will go up or drop due to the amounts of photography on the market? Let us know on the comments below or record your comment as mp3 and email it to photonetcast at photonetcast.com
If you’re still looking for that perfect Christmas gift (maybe for yourself?), we have compiled a list of 16 suggestions for items that we recommend, and chosen to fit every budget.
Got any more gift suggestions? Drop them in the comments…
For now, enjoy the show…
