Oh boy... The world has changed a little in the two weeks since our last recording, but thankfully Perry wants to talk about Exakta and Topcon lenses. The elephant that calls itself Covid-19 makes it's presence known and we talk through the different experiences that the we have encountered and how it is affecting our photographic worlds. Not all the bleeping is Johnny swearing. On a more positive note, Simon launches his new range of lens caps so that your more obscure lenses can be protected from scratches and contagion.

It’s finally here: we’ve made the long-awaited Digitization Special! In this episode we are joined by two titans of the digitization world, Hamish Gill of Pixl-latr (and other stuff) and Nate Johnson, the man behind the brilliant Negative Lab Pro plugin for Lightroom. We cover as many bases as possible, going through the pros and cons of different digitization methods, and Hamish throws in a couple of rants for good measure.

It's Pulaski Day in Chicago, and we're celebrating by talking about adapting lenses. We lose Simon part way through the episode, but Perry and Johnny continue on. The guys talk about a number of unique classic lenses ideal for adapting, and take a deep dive into the techniques for fitting them to film and digital cameras.
