Welcome to our first ever Photography Online Podcast! This month, Marcus and James debate and discuss all the hot topics in the world of photography.
We discuss some photography stories making the news. We ask - what defines someone as a photographer? We debate if Focus Stacking is all it’s hyped up to be and we ask does the world really need a new colour film, a hybrid camera, a ridiculously wide angle lens and a virtual camera assistant?
Plus, we let you know what's coming up on the next episode of Photography Online.
