On this episode of Photo Geek Weekly, Steve Brokaw delightfully regales us on his cross-country bicycle trip and what that means for personal goals, in addition to our news stories! The mucked-about Yashica brand name is at it again, but new film photography endeavours worth our attention still abound! Editing gone wrong on so many levels, the evolution of cheaper prices for camera gear and how much of that gear are photographers buying these days? This and much more on another full hour of Photo Geek Weekly. :)
