PhotoNetCast brings you the photography topics that matter, whether you are a newcomer, photography enthusiast, semi-pro or even a photography professional. We highlight the latest news, discuss photography equipment (dSLR cameras, photography lighting, accessories, etc.), workflow, tips and tutorials, as well as discuss in-depth topics to help you improve your photography from both a business and creative prespectives. 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. Whatever your level is in photography, whether you express your creativity through digital or film photography, we are confident you will enjoy our discussions on PhotoNetCast and we hope you join us for every show.
We hope you had a great Christmas together with your loved ones (and that Santa has been generous with the photographic treats).
For the last episode of the year, we decided to have a quick look into the past year, from our photography ventures and also from PhotoNetCast’s perspective. At the same time, we briefly discuss what we have planned for 2015, and what we expect to change during the year.
After all this, the show was just getting too long so we’ve split it in two, with Listener Questions and Selected from the Web coming up on a separate episode, just after the New Year.
First of all I have to apologize for the delay in releasing this episode. It was recorded in the beginning of January, but only now I had the time to edit and publish. Hope you understand.
We start the show by answering a few listener questions (see below), continue with a short revision of some interesting topics on the news, namely the new “wireless lens” cameras and the discovery of a large amount of work by Vivien Maier, and get into the main topic talking about mobile photo apps. Unfortunately we only had “one side of the equation” with iPhone users, no Android or other platforms were discussed.
If you’re interested, here’s the list of the photo apps we mentioned, and their prices (at the time we recorded) on the iTunes store:
UPDATE:Episode #56 is also recorded and will be released soon. Trey Ratcliff is our guest on that one. Still on mobile photo apps, we have a bunch of giveaway codes for 2 other apps, Photo Verse and Pixelsync but you’ll have to listen to it to know how to score one of these codes.
David Falk: Hi guys, I need to get a shutter release cable and I would like your opinion on the main features I should be looking at. Any particular one you recommend? Thanks and keep up the great work with the show.
Peter Johnson: I have some extra batteries that I use when travelling. When not travelling I keep using and recharging the same battery. Do you think this is the best approach? Would you keep your spare batteries recharged or let them dry and recharge only before needing?
Matt Kuhn: Hey guys, I have a quick tech question for you. I shoot raw, and would like to be able to import my images and keep the in camera settings after import, so black and white or sepia or saturation or … maintains the same as it was shot in camera, instead of readjusting my images in the computer. I import and do the bulk of my processing in LR3, and would love to hear that this is possible.
