Hi everyone, I won't be posting an episode this week as I'm taking a short break. I'll be back next week with a camera that's both rare, fascinating and legendary - in equal parts! See you soon all.
So sorry everyone I'm afraid I won't be posting an episode this week. I'm sorry this is last minute - I had hoped to bring you the episode but at the 11th hour it became clear it wasn't going to be possible. Really sorry everyone. I'll be back next week with more vintage lenses, including a very interesting 135, a 20mm and various other pieces of antique glass, enough to warm any mirrorless photographer's heart! Cheerio for now!
Hi everyone, I won't be posting an episode this week - I'm taking a short break. I'll be back soon with various bits of old glass, and a new lens I think is particularly interesting. See you soon folks!
Hello everyone, there won't be a video this week - I'm taking a short break. I'll be back soon with more lenses, cameras, film stocks and thoughts on this extraordinary, 200 year old art form. Happy new year everyone, see you soon!
Hello everyone, there won't be an episode this week as I'm taking a short break. I'll be back soon with more digital and film cameras and plenty of interesting lenses, in some more 'out and about' episodes, which, I have to admit, I enjoy making rather more than the indoor ones! Let me know whether you prefer the interior or exterior episodes and I shall endeavour to bring them to you. Happy shooting everyone!
Hi everybody, it seems I've made a mistake and got all mixed up with my release dates! Oh dear! So I've had to hide Sunday's video for now - please stand by for another video this evening - I don't want to deprive you of content!
Hey everyone, there won't be a video this week as I'm taking a short break. I'm shooting some really interesting lenses right now and I'll be back soon with the video! Thanks everyone!
A general question to all viewers! I'm wondering about the best direction to take the channel in the future, and I need your opinions to help me decide what's going to happen. The channel needs a boost of some sort to help it to continue to grow, and I need to work out how to do that. One option is, while continuing to review cameras and lenses, to introduce reviews of other old - and new - technology, for example gramophones, tape decks, vintage cars, all of which are things that camera fans might also be interested in. Or, keep this channel as a photography only channel and start another to review other forms of interesting old technology?
I'm not going to make any rushed decisions - this is something that needs to be thought carefully about. And if you have any suggestions as to where the channel might go in order to develop and to grow, please do let me know! Any and all suggestions are welcome!
