The Shutter Brothers are back, and they are talking cameras! The Bros discuss their recent camera swap (the are both happy) and the current state of the camera market. And maybe, just maybe, you might just be able to visit the Uncle Jonesy's Camera Store soon (online, of course). 

Next, Kelley reviews his latest acquisition, the Nikkormat EL, a "budget" minded camera that is every bit as good or better that many manual SLR's. Finally, Kevin reviews (and highly recommends) his new favorite blog, Earth, Sun, Film, by Jerome Carter.

Show #29 is online, and the Shutter Brother are having a camera swap. Kevin is trading his Nikon FE for Kelley's Minolta X-570, and it's all good. Kevin also talks about photos that capture time and place, as well as a new (to him) film, Kodak Pro Image 100. Finally, Kevin reviews an outstanding book, The Anonymous Project's Midcentury Memories. 

Happy Shooting!

A solo show from Shutter Brother Kevin! It's Autumn, and the fall colors are popping like crazy. Nature's impressionism is on full display and won't be back until a year from now, so now is the time to capture the fall colors on film. Kevin has been doing that lately, and he shares some useful tips for making keeper autumn shots.

Along the way, Kevin has begun to notice the effect Father Time is having on his eyesight, so now seems to be the right time to make the move to an autofocus SLR camera. Kevin has landed on the Minolta Maxxum 7000 as the perfect choice for him, so listen as he explains why.

The Shutter Brothers are back with a brand new show, and it's getting cinematic! Kelley is super excited about shooting regular 8mm movie film this summer, and he shares what he has learned so far and how to save money by shooting B&W 8mm film. Meanwhile, Kevin explains why he has decided to stop scanning his B&W negatives and instead scan only the darkroom prints he makes from those negatives while also sharing how he makes "virtual" contact sheets.

The socially distant (but still together) Shutter Brothers are back to talk about photography and how we are coping with staying socially distant and even self-isolating. Some of our wonderful listeners chime in on how they have been getting along as well. This time, both Shutter Bros. have a camera to talk about. Kevin shows off his Russian made Zorki 4 rangefinder, while Kelley sings the praises of (you guessed it) a Minolta XE-7. Finally, Kevin brings up a very mysterious subject:  How to use Sunny f16 when it isn't sunny. Answer:  "The Shadow Knows!" Thank you for listening!!

The Shutter Brothers are back (socially distant, of course) with a brand new show!!! Kelley talks about his favorite camera of all, the Nikon F3HP, while Kevin exudes the joys of darkroom printing. And to paraphrase the late great singer (and photographer) Kenny Rogers, "you gotta know how to load 'em, know how to hold 'em:"  a tutorial on film camera basic from Kelley. Then, Kevin has a review of a great book, Walker Evans Polaroids. Lots of fun for everyone!

Kevin is back with a solo show and big news:  We are having our first photowalk! Mark your calendars for Saturday, March 21, at 8:30 am at the Laurel-Snow State Natural Area near Dayton, Tennessee. Our walk will be led by none other than terrific photographer/artist and Friend of the Show Wayne Setser. Don't miss it!

Next, Kevin talks about his new love:  darkroom printing at Safelight District Community Darkroom in Chattanooga, and his show at Barley of Chattanooga on Saturday, March 14, at 7:00 pm. You're invited!

Finally, the Shutter Brothers will be back soon with more shows. Thank you for your patience!
