/

On this episode of Photo Geek Weekly, Don is joined by Chris Marquardt to dive into the reasons behind a confusing new smartphone sensor design from Sony, the cryptic launch messaging from Nikon about their new camera system, when and why you’d like to use a 4×5 camera (and how to get one inexpensively), and some incredibly old photographic techniques that we can still have fun with today. Enjoy!
