More absolute and utter nonsense but sure, tis the season, or the year in this case. If you want a distraction from the harsh realities of real life then this is the place for you. We talk about what happened to the Raw Podcast, what we've been up to since and Paul gives us another update on the weather.

So, We've gone and done it and have finally jumped about the bandwagon and are galloping (or Zooming....) at full speed toward waffle town. I hope it's open because I'm starving.

Anyway , what's all this? Well, with social distancing forcing our hand a little we've decided to bring the podcast back for who knows how many last hurrahs! Consider this an intro, chit chat, catchup, a chit up, a catch chat. Call it what you will, we're back!

Why not pop over to Instagram and give us a follow at _rawpodcast_

Thanks again folks for listening.

Dave and Paul.

We've been away but now we're back. Or are we?

Pre chat before the real chat on the return of the Raw Podcast.

Something a little bit different for you all with episode 40. We were lucky to have been blessed with the presence of the one and only Eric Savoie. You may know him as Savo. The Sav or maybe even The Bear.

The man is a photography master who over the years has had may accolades thrown his way. One of Rangefinders Magazines 30 Rising Stars and Junebugs Best of the Best to name a few. One we thing we know for sure, every award he's been granted has been well and truly deserved.

Were proud to call him a friend and to have him on the podcast is an honour. So if you'd like a little bit of photography stardust sprinkled into your ear holes then this is the one for you.

Oh. And do yourself a favour today, head over to Eric's website at www.savo.ie and watch his show reel on the homepage. It's a thing of beauty.

Thanks Eric and thanks to all of you for listening.

Thanks for listening to Episode 39!

While we have you, we'd love it if you could give us a 5 star review or a thumbs up or a like or double tap or whatever these podcasting apps make you do these days? It helps to bump this podcast up the charts and edge us closer to world domination. Or at least dominate a space in the top 1000. Good enough!

Done? Thanks! Okay so….

In this episode, we discuss the new Cheese Grater Mac Pro announced at the WWDC2019. A massive price tag but is it worth it? Not that'll matter to us because we're going to win the lottery.

Dave gives us an update on editing with Capture ONE vs Lightroom. Needless to say, we also discuss is a new Fujifilm X-Pro3 is on the way.

We make mention of the new GFX100 and you have to go and check out Jonas Rask's review to just appreciate the feast for the eyes.

https://jonasraskphotography.com/2019/05/23/at-the-brink-of-tomorrow-the-fujifilm-gfx100-first-look-preview/

We answer some of your questions from our Instagram Ask Us Anything post.

If you're into the MyZone challenge then stick around until after the closing theme to get an update on how the May Madness challenge went.

Thanks again so much for listening!

Welcome to Episode 35!

We're back with a slightly longer episode than normal. This is because we found out that both of us are afraid of getting murdered in the dark. You'll understand soon enough. (That's not a threat)

So, once we got over that and stopped shaking her'e what we covered.

Paul got new swanky noise cancelling headphones.

Sony 1000XM3

Dave got a much more boring purchase. An Air Purifier…. ohhhhhhhhhhh.

Levoit Air Purifier

Welcome to Episode 34!

Who likes blogging? Who likes putting together end of year posts? Is it worthwhile? Who watches them? Well, Dave and Paul ask these very questions and more on this weeks episode.

Aside from that we discuss the new camera offerings from Canon and Fuji.

The Canon EOS-RP

https://www.canon.ie/cameras/eos-rp/

and the Fujifilm X-T30

http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/x/fujifilm_x_t30/

So, place your bets. How long before Dave owns that X-T30 and the poor X100F is resigned to retirement, once again.

Speaking about the X100F, maybe part of the reason for the demise is down to the Pixel3. Yes, Dave is still harping on about this and shows off the Night sight. It really is some sort of witchcraft.

We hope you enjoy it folks. We'd love it if you drop by and say hello on our Instagram account @_rawpodcast_
