With Cosina announcing the end of new camera production, Nate and Simon sat down to discuss the future of New Camera Production in the modern era of film photography.

Simon thinks the future is bright in the world of boutique camera and lens manufacturing and that intrepid DIY'ers will kickstart the future with frankencameras.

Nate on the other hand is a bit of a gloomy gus.

What do you think?

Questions from this episode:

How much would you pay for a new camera? Your dream camera...

How much for a small boutique camera?

Do you see more batch lenses coming in the future, how much will they cost and what are you willing to pay?

Back from a brief unannounced hiatus, Simon and Nate had some time to sit down and chat for the first time in a while. What did they discuss? Well traveling of course.

Also, we are in the middle of Polaroid Week, so be sure to tweet us your favorite polaroid shots of the week. And be sure to check out the Instant Photo Show

Additionally, This Saturday is Toy Camera Day. HolgaJen has done a fantastic writeup on it.

Finally, Nate will be at Newspace Photo Swap Meet on Sunday. Swing by and say hello.

We apologize for the brief interruption, but it did give us the opportunity to setup a new recording solution, which makes the show sound so much better. We hope you enjoy it.

This is an episode that has been in discussion for some time. Choosing projects to shoot; How do you figure it out?

Nate and Simon share how they have found their personal projects in their work and how you can to. How to go about organizing a notebook of your shots, or organizing it on the floor of your living room and discovering what you enjoy shooting and finding the narrative in your shots.

Be certain to tweet @pdexposures a photo of your prints laid out on whatever space you have in your home, office or studio to share with us what you shoot and what you love to shoot.

Matt Day was kind enough to join us again on Pdexpsures to discuss Hybrid Shooting. Matt works as a professional photographer (alongside his excellent youtube channel where he shares photography advice and camera reviews).

Matt shares with us how he shoots weddings and portraits on both film and digital and is able to make a living off his work.

A few weeks ago we received an unexpected e-mail from Blurb Books. They were coming to Portland and wanted to say hi, so we invited them over, talked about books and shot some film. In this special episode of the Pdexposures Podcast we go over different kinds of printing options from Blurb, some of the favorite things they've done, and tips for how to get your work out into the world (hint: it involves printing it in some sort of bound collection).

Note: While Blurb did not pay us to have this episode, needless to say it's all we talk about.

Tony is still out traveling through Europe on Skate Tour 2015, so Nate and Simon are left alone to discuss their favorite type of camera on this weeks episode. Thats right, it is a medium format SLR chat show.

Simon talks about some of the pitfalls of owning a cheaply found Bronica ETR while Nate exclaims the virtues of his new Pentax.

Sit back, and enjoy a British free episode of Pdexposures.

Out of curiosity: Which camera has the loudest mirror clap? Let us know in the comments.

Last year we did an episode discussing the current state of film and where we saw it going over the next 12 months. Well it's time for an update and a look at how film is progressing in our modern market.

In this episode we discuss the new Lomography 58mm Petzval (Pretzel) lens, New55, ONDU and so much more. Sit back, relax, and enjoy Nate and Simon (Tony is off skateboarding) discuss the future of film.

In the past we have talked about getting your work out there, we've talked about zines, and we've talked about books. But we've never discussed what actually goes into producing a zine. Dan Domme guest hosts in the 54th episode of Pdexposures bringing his expertise of zine production to the table. Dan has produced three different (and equally bizarrely named) zines; the most recent which you can still purchase at DommePhoto.com, though quantities are very limited. We discuss production, the ethics of what you should charge, what a zine is exactly, different printers, methods of printing, and even selling/distribution of your zine online.

We are also itching to do another episode where we talk about your zines. Do you have one that you've produced recently? If so get in touch in the comments below!

It has been a while since we have sat down and discussed our personal lives on Pdexposures, in fact I do not think we have every discussed something so personal. This weeks episode deals with something that everyone should be familiar with; Life. Often times you can struggle to find the time to shoot, develop and print.

This week, we decided to discuss things that are happening personally that are separating us a bit from the world of film photography. Tony with his skateboarding, Nate with his Nateness and Simon with comicons. How do you find the time to shoot when you can barely find the time to relax?

We're taking a quick vacation this week to kickoff and introduce the newest Podcast on the Pdexposures Network - The Instant Photo Show. Every other week they'll be discussing instant film, cameras, tips, and the future of instant photography.
