Episode 423 – The Putzier Experiment
We is back for another year! 🙂
Woohoo!
We talk about my cruise to the Coral Isles, and the sad reality that most of the coral we saw was already dead.
I thought it was due to too much tourism. Glynn is of the opinion that it’s due to coral bleaching and rising sea temperatures. He talked about his friend Victor Bonito, who is doing work in this area. He also talked about the documentary, “Chasing coral” on Netflix. Watch the trailer here.
Then, we talk about my new camera! Yep, finally, after 9 years of shooting with my a850, it’s been retired in favour of a new Sony a7iii, and 3 new FE lenses.
A Laowa 15/f2 manual focus wide angle,
A Tamron 28-75/f2.8 medium zoom, and
A Sony 70-200/f4 (still not here).
Photographer spends 10 years tracking down the original locations of vinyl covers,
and this collection of gorgeous images of freshwater animals.

Steve Peters sent us a link to the (Japanese) Tamron site which features the work of some schmuck by the name of Glynn Lavender. 🙂
Also, this story on the future of computational photography.
And this Facebook video of a guy who has mounted his camera on the stock of a rifle. Makes sense when ya think about it!
Adam sent us a few stories over the break.

I can’t believe you named the episode after me! You guys are great. So to clarify…. I listen to about 10 photography podcast a week and Shutters Inc. tops the list. Oh and we have interacted before…I messaged you praising the updated website design from its previous 1990’s look 🙂
