#325: Leaving on a jet plane
The FujiCast Photography Show
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...

#322: Dilemma: Moving away from Fujifilm?!? and sneaking cameras into festivals
The FujiCast Photography Show
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...

#321: Buying third-party stuff, good idea? Swap to DxO?
The FujiCast Photography Show

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?

#319: It's raining cameras and all hail the leaf shutter
The FujiCast Photography Show
Kev chooses to shovel s*&t rather than shoot a wedding... perhaps he has a cunning plan to start a fertiliser company? Meanwhile, Neale is considering continuing his drumming career and covering himself in tattoos, as Kev’s Book of the Week is an inspiring photography volume that goes behind the scenes with drummers. Also on the show, with so many Fujifilm cameras to choose from, which one is right for you, or are they all pretty much the same, really? In particular, we look for the perfect Fujifilm in the range to lug up a mountain, keeping the weight to a minimum. Why is a leaf shutter...

The FujiCast Photography Show
Neale returns from skiing with legs intact, and now he’s off to Bangladesh for his next expedition.

Also on the show, questions about presets and recipes for Fujifilm camera systems, a nod to Bob (ChatGPT) and how it can help you build your own recipes and film simulations. We try to work out why Aftershoot culling doesn’t always perform as well as we might wish/expect for some genres and shoots, is...

The FujiCast Photography Show
