The gang is back from a 2-3 week hiatus... we've gone through a tropical storm, a crazy election, and worst of all: Christian's travels. In this episode, we talk about the potential merits and flaws of the new Zeiss ZX1. Lightroom built into a camera is definitely innovative but is it practical? What would it be like to own a "Green Bubble Camera." We also pose the question... can a modern digital camera be a "forever" camera or will we be chasing rainbows forever due to technology? This and more on this episode of CMY!

It's a new week and like clockwork, Marc is considering buying and selling more stuff. Christian explains how minimizing his kit has made him a better photographer, or at least... simplified his process. And just because you know we can't get enough Leica talk, we discuss the upside of "investing" in Leica glass (refer to episode 7). This and more on episode 12 of CMY!

We're on our TENTH episode of CMY! Thanks for tuning in and watching/listening! On today's episode, we discuss how newer camera technology compares to the prior generation of similar models... are incremental upgrades good enough reasons to upgrade to a newer camera? We're also taking bets on how long can Marc go without changing up his camera gear.

On this week’s episode of the show, Yani reminds us of our past transgressions. Marc tells us which camera(s) he took along for his weekend trip. We talk about the struggles of being a lesser photographer while packing for trips which begs the question... is there a camera you'd never leave the house without? We also talk about printing your photos as photo books... or zines... or whatever they’re called these days.

On this episode, we talk about two controversial topics in photo editing: using presets and cropping. Can presets help you achieve a unique and consistent look (all the tones!) or does it result in preset decision fatigue? Is cropping acceptable or is it a cardinal sin? We also discover that Yani might just be color blind.

This week we discuss our thoughts on the Platon episode of "Abstract" on Netflix and why we think it takes more than technical skills to be a good portrait photographer. We talk about the importance of empathy, situational awareness, and making connections in photography, particularly in portraiture. We chat about the best photography deals we've ever stumbled upon, how trends have affected the prices of vintage cameras. Relevant Links:

On this episode, we talk about the intersection of travel and photography. Does photography dictate the trips you take? Or do the trips dictate how you photograph and with what?
