Summary

It's time we catch up on ALL the photo news. Since we did not have the photo news in the last two episodes we had a lot of catch up to do.

One of the biggest news stories of the last few weeks was the lead up to the Nikon Df announcement. Many of you may be wounding why Stephen or I did not get in on the "rumors", you will find out in this weeks Episode.

After we catch up on all the news there is a very special interview that I conducted. I sat down with my high school teacher who showed me the way as a new photographer. He is the reason I do not crop and fill the frame. This is a very personal interview that I hope lets you reflect on a teacher that you had that made a difference in your direction and life.

As always this weeks episode is available as a Video Podcast as well over on the web site. For the full information and all the news stories we discussed please check out FroKnowsPhoto.com/rawtalk-60.
