#286: Street photography gave me soul and 'You Rebel Scum'

The FujiCast: Photography Podcast

Show Notes

Kev is photographing in the boxing ring with a GFX; hope he can duck out the way quick enough! Questions today into the show about making a macro investment, finding a perfect workflow that isn't complicated when it comes to saving our precious pictures for all time, will more and better ai editing software reduce the need for personal presets, in wide-angle land - what's too wide when it comes to hitting the dance floor at a wedding to get super expressive shots, what does it mean to drag a shutter, and am I wise to register a domain more locally sounding that a dot com? The book of the week is You Rebel Scum by Daz Smith, a ten year project to document 'rebels in society.'

In January 2019, a year before the world went slightly mad for a while, Neale and Kev started a podcast with no idea how long it would run. I mean, who would listen to this, and why would they listen? Now 2,712 days after episode 1 aired, the show has an announcement, and we wanted you to hear it from the horse's mouth, as it were. It's a timely announcement, too, as Kev takes some extended leave in his beloved Spain. On top of that, we'll be answering questions about the most useless photographic gizmos we've bought, the cameras we regretted or admired, flash (a-aahhhh), the 50mm f2 versus the 56mm f1.2, does Kev not like zooms (?), assigning recipes to dials, and Lightroom meets video editing.

Kev's edging ever closer to his Spanish retreat for the Summer, though nobody has warned the locals he has Mediterranean wind! The boys learn about Haoge, a 'new-to-them' place to buy third-party accessories for Fujifilm cameras, they celebrate the House of Photography, and talk about the importance of personal photo projects. Also, how to choose gear for the open road, key-wording images, Instagram Bot-Gate, and getting back into photography after time out to concentrate on family and mental health.

The boys are in celebratory mode, even if only for a couple of minutes over a certain football trophy, but fear not, they're hiding behind the couch with one eye scanning the horizon for what's to come! On the show, the dos and don'ts of client slideshows online, clients making their own albums, the accuracy of focus peaking, IBIS and tripods, Robocop-type stabilisers, shutter speeds and flash, and photographing the cops!

Kev and Neale suddenly discover that their little ones have grown into adults! This week on the show, does using AI to cull pictures work? Can it possibly be as good as living, breathing beings making choices? Also, how many images do/should clients expect to receive from a shoot, charging for event photography when starting out, insurance and 'part-time' websites. Neale finds out we still have merch; have you bought a show mug yet? What would be a good compact-sized camera to beat those darned festival rules that say 'NO CAMERAS!' The link between leaf shutters and flash, and how good is that X100 internal flash? How about adding the different wide and tele conversion lenses to your X100 system? Just how good are they? And then, steady yourself, we find ourselves trying to help someone face the dilemma of moving on from Fujifilm! Email the show with your questions: [email protected] For links go to the showpage.

Kev's worrying if there's going to be enough tractor fuel to get him to Spain this Summer, 'cos at this rate he's definitely not going to be flying! Today, we talk about removing bits of the wild to make a better shot, Godox triggers and Bluetooth remotes which starts a micro thread of thoughts about buying proprietary camera accessories only, masking and swapping to DxO, setting up your Fujifilm camera, and camera straps - what do the boys use?
