Photo Geek Weekly Episode 18 - New Life to Old Cameras
/

On this episode of Photo Geek Weekly, Darlene Hildebrandt joins the conversation to discuss a Kickstarter campaign that allows you to use a digital back on many 35mm film cameras (and it doesn’t break the bank), what innovations might be possible now that Google has open-sourced its pixel-by-pixel object recognition software, and what is quickly approaching from RED – and a little hint that should make photographers and cinematographers pay attention. Give it a listen!

  1. I enjoyed this episode. If you enjoy stereophotography I supposed you know this, but if your readers don’t, iI wanted to mention Brian May (guitarist for Queen, among other things). He has been into this for some time and has several books out featuring stereographs.

    • Thanks for the compliments here Lisa! I would LOVE to get Dr. Brian May on my podcast Inside the Lens for a deep dive into stereoscopic photography – I have his OWL viewers and have seen some of his other work in the area as well. If you know a way of getting in touch with him, please let me know! 🙂
