#94 Tear Gas, Poop, and Cowboy Candy
Monday Nov 25, 2019
Monday Nov 25, 2019
So, we tried to make a shorter show this week and ended up making our longest episode. In our defence/defense, we missed a week so we had so much to catch up upon. After a bit of bowel shaming by Simon, we start off by reflecting on on Perry's audio dairy from last week before going full on lens nerdery. Stay tuned for zoom love 'n' hate, Simon gets an Orikkor at last, don't freeze your Ilford film without opening it first, "No GAS November", Yashinon 5cm f2, Fujinon55mm f2.2, and NWA burgers.

#93 Listeners' Emails (Eventually)
Monday Nov 11, 2019
Monday Nov 11, 2019
We’ve not had the time to read out and discuss listener emails recently, so it’s about time we caught up with them. Well, that was the intention, but Johnny and Perry had other ideas and came over all artistic… Plenty of subjects under discussion, including the Canon LTM 50/1.4, 50mm f2 lenses, focus shift, Taylor Hobson 2” f2 Anastigmat, 75mm Biotar, Robot lenses, and mild disappointment with Perry’s star 35mm purchases mentioned last week.

#92 Embedded with John R. Bruning
Monday Nov 04, 2019
Monday Nov 04, 2019
A diverse, engaging, funny and occasionally dark conversation this week with author and former photojournalist John R. Bruning. John talks about how using classic lenses helped him back to normality. Plus, Perry manages to justify buying two subtlety different 35mm lenses, advice on selling children, and how protest photography can become enthralling. No emails this week, we will cover them next week.
