    Great comments on just how we all see things differently and go in search (or not) for that idea kicking around in our head.

    LensWork - Photography and the Creative Process

    0:00 | Dec 29th, 2019

    1 recommendation

    Here's a thought ... Conventional wisdom would have us believe that PDAF (phase detection auto focus) is better than CDAF (contrast detection auto focus). Better based on what criteria?

    pwitham recommended:

    I appreciated the explanation of how the two different methods of auto-focus systems work between video and stills. This is the first time I think I have found where someone explained to me why one is...Show More

    0:00 | Jan 17th, 2020

    1 recommendation

    Here's a thought ... One of the primary arguments in favor of 4K video is future proofing. This is exactly the same thing we went through years ago with archival prints. Better to concentrate on find...Show More

    pwitham recommended:

    I think Brookes gets it right again, all the planning and future proofing time spent might be better spent as he says ‘for the here and now’ audience.

    0:00 | Feb 22nd, 2020

    1 recommendation

    Here's a thought ... The world is naturally a chaotic place and a large part of art-making is to simplify to the essentials. We are always leaning toward minimalism, and only on the most rare occasio...Show More

    pwitham recommended:

    This episode poses an interesting and scary question. What if you couldn’t do that creative thing you enjoy anymore for some unavoidable reason? Maybe we all need to stop and think about this, face th...Show More

    While graffiti is seen by some as blight, and by others as art, the act of hiding in the shadows and stealthily scrawling your name on a wall is ultimately about being seen, rather than doing damage. ...Show More

    pwitham recommended:

    Another fascinating episode this time talking about the graffiti scene from an artists perspective. It was interesting to think of gangs of artists going around the underground.

    I have to agree with the thoughts of Brookes in this episode. Some of my best work is done when I'm feeling tired and not wanting to do it. I think it's because we have to dig deep and work harder. W...Show More

    I miss those old camera stores where you could find every piece of odd and ancient gear of your dreams. I'm not sure I'd want to go back to those days, but I do remember them fondly.

    Gear Acquisition Syndrome can be a bad thing, but Idea Acquisition Syndrome would do us all a world of good.

    pwitham recommended:

    I love the idea (pardon the pun) of this episode, we crave many things but gathering ideas is not always one of them. For me, that's why I always have a way to note something down any time, any place...Show More
