Show Notes

On this month’s podcast Nick, James and Ruth discuss the case of the urbex photographer who locked himself in an abandoned jail cell and the pro who sets his gear, and sometimes his clients, on fire. Plus we examine the first photographs from the world’s largest digital camera. We look at a the tripod that apparently can do it all, the concept camera bag solving the problem that nobody seems to have, and the first ever Leica branded 35mm film. LINKS
