#113 Karl's Desert Island Lenses
Monday Apr 27, 2020
Monday Apr 27, 2020
Dr Karl Havens left us a year ago this week and we still miss him dearly. To mark his passing, we take Karl’s memory to our desert island and do our best to work out what cameras and lenses he might have taken with him. So please come and take a trip that Karl would have loved and hated in equal measure as we agonize over what he may have picked.

#112 We Asked, You Told Us
Monday Apr 20, 2020
Monday Apr 20, 2020
Johnny could not be with us this week, he’s felling a little better but he has other pressing concerns, so Perry and Simon man up and take on the mammoth task of responding to your emails. In the last podcast, Simon asked listeners for feedback on what they wished to hear in future shows and boy did you tell us! So sit back in safe isolation and hopefully enjoy the show.

#111 Squaring The Conceptually Circular Hat Box
Monday Apr 06, 2020
Monday Apr 06, 2020
We're back after another two week lockdown lay-off and it seems that few things have changed. None of us has gone outside to shoot, Perry is digging LTM lenses, Simon's making lens caps and Johnny.... let's say that he's still under doctor's care and that's the best explanation for his flat field focus lecture.
