POPULARITY
For most episodes of this show, we rely on experts to come and talk to us about a specific topic. We value the experiences and knowledges of people who know a lot about a brand or a style of camera to teach us something that we didn't already know. For Episode 76 however, we decided to go with something the Camerosity hosts are already experts on, which is buying and selling cameras. You don't get to have the experiences between the four hosts without access to a great deal of hardware, so we thought for this episode we would share some stories of how we all got to where we are at today. In addition to our personal experiences, Anthony, Paul, Theo, and Mike share their best tips and tricks not only for buying cameras but also when it comes time to sell something. Joining us on this episode are returning callers, Mark Faulkner, Mike Litwin, Will Pinkham, and first time caller Cody Yoder. We cover the basics of buying and selling on eBay but also ways in which we've accumulated gear through estate sales, Facebook Marketplace, and through good old human interaction. Paul shares his thoughts on the state of buying and selling, Mike discusses one of his favorite eBay sellers and why he doesn't buy from them anymore, and Anthony shares his story for how he met one of the most eccentric camera collectors in Florida. In addition to buying and selling, Cody tells us a story about how he literally walked into a garage full of Hasselblads, Theo gives us an update on what it was like shooting and developing film while on vacation in Vietnam and Paul answers a question for how he decides how much to offer a seller when buying a large collection. For the next episode, we are sticking with topics we know well and will dedicate Episode 77 entirely to blogging. This podcast wouldn't exist if Mike had never started mikeeckman.com and met Anthony, Paul, and Theo through his site, so if you've ever been interested into the behind the scenes of researching and reviewing cameras for a website, this is the episode for you. In addition to Mike and Theo's thoughts, we are going to solicit some of your other favorite bloggers and get their thoughts as well. Episode 77 will be recorded on Monday, September 16th at 7pm Central Daylight Time and 8pm Eastern Daylight Time.

In this the 50th episode of the Camerosity Podcast, the gang and I look back at the past two years of open source film photography nonsense. A podcast created late one night on a whim has turned into one of the most popular of its kind. This is a screenshot from the recording of the very first Cocaine and Waffles Podcast recorded on May 12, 2021. Coming out of podcast retirement (somewhat) is original host, and former creator of the Classic Lenses Podcast, Johnny Sisson. Dusting off his headset and microphone, Johnny updates us on what happened to his former co-hosts and reflects on what his favorite episodes were. One of which involves Mr. Bob Rotoloni who conveniently joins us on this episode along with returning guests Rob Jamieson and podcast host himself, Andre Domingues. On a show featuring both Bob and Johnny, we are treated to a great deal more stories about Nikon and Polaroid, along with discussion about a strange product that brought both brands together. It wouldn't be a Camerosity Podcast episode without the discussion foraying into other topics such as the Bronica S2 and adapting Bronica lenses, Hasselblads, Diptychs, and Andre's very favorable review of the half frame Kodak H35 which we touched upon in the last episode. In the spirit of an anniversary episode that reflects back on our origins, be sure to stay through the closing music for a look back into the very first moments of this show...Episode 0! As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you! We would love to hear from more listeners, especially those who are new to shooting film or collecting cameras. Please don't feel like you have to be an expert on a specific type of camera, or have the level of knowledge on par with other people on the show. We LOVE people who are new to shooting and are interested in having an episode dedicated to people new to the hobby, so please don't consider your knowledge level to be a prerequisite for joining! The guys and I rarely know where each episode is going to go until it happens, so if you'd like to join us on a future episode, be sure to look out for our show announcements on our Camerosity Podcast Facebook page, and right here on mikeeckman.com. We usually record every other Monday and announcements, along with the Zoom link are typically shared 2-3 days in advance. For our next episode, we are inviting back Todd Gustavson from the George Eastman House in Rochester, New York to share with us stories about Eastman Kodak, the company's history, some of the best Kodak models to look out for, more about the museum, and lots more. If you've only ever thought of Kodak as a film company who also made cameras...well, you'd be right...but they're so much more than that. Be sure to look out for our next show announcement. Episode 51 will be recorded on Monday, June 12th. We hope to see you there!

In our first episode, we discussed those cameras that can take any work we throw their way, and so to close off this season; we're bringing that topic back! What makes things interesting is that some of our choices have changed, and some familiar cameras are still on the table but in different people's hands! And there are no surprises in this list; we have cameras like Hasselblads, Mamiya, Olympus, Nikon, Canon, and Minolta are all in our choices. And when it comes to workhorses, these are cameras that will work in any condition and deliver solid image quality. You also need a camera that you can depend on the metering on the camera, especially if you're working with slide film! You need these cameras to get out of the way, to be not only an extension of your eye but also of your heart. Also, these cameras need to feel right, understanding a camera within your second nature without any real thought to operation. And we end the episode with an excellent discussion about when and where we shoot digital (and yes, we do shoot digital)!
On this episode, I talk with Taleen Kali and Julia Gibson of Dum Dum Zine is a collective that publishes experimental art-lit zines, and features interviews, flash fiction, photo essays, and serialized radio plays on their website. From summer goths to Hasselblads to how bizarre Facebook marketing is, we cover all the important topics. It's great!! @dumdumzine dumdumzine.com facebook.com/dumdumzine
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Allan as happy as he was during our recording of this episode and, if you are into vintage cameras, lenses, and all things film photography, just sit back and enjoy our conversation with Bellamy Hunt, aka the Japan Camera Hunter. The palpable enthusiasm between these two camera lovers cannot be feigned, and they talked like old friends about Nikon SP, Canon rangefinders, Hasselblads, and anything with a red dot. We also learn how an Englishman arrived in Japan, worked for a camera company, became a camera hunter, and eventually developed a business that not only sources vintage and rare cameras, but sells film, custom-paints cameras, and writes and shares his love for photography on the “JCH” site. In addition to talking about cameras, we discuss the photography culture of Japan, camera shops of Tokyo, and the renaissance of film photography. Join us for this pleasurable conversation on the B&H Photography Podcast. --------- Some of the gear mentioned in this article: Artisan & Artist LMB-M3 Half Case for Leica Black Label Bag Half Case for Leica MegaGear Ever Ready Half-Bottom Leather Case for Sony Guest: Bellamy Hunt Image courtesy of Bellamy Hunt
"Det blir min sista utställning" säger fotografen Annika von Hausswolff om Grand Theory Hotel som under våren visas på Hasselblad Center i Göteborg. Annika von Hausswolff slog igenom redan som elev på Konstfack med fotoutställningen Tillbaka till naturen där många av bilderna såg ut som om de var tagna på brottsplatser. Men det var inte foto eller bildkonst som fick henne att bryta sig loss och skapa sitt eget liv, utan det var musiken.- Utan punken ingen Annika von Hausswolff, säger hon bestämt. I några år sjöng hon i Cortex tillsammans med Freddie Wadling.I samtalet med Mia Gerdin berättar hon om uppväxten på Stampen i Göteborg med föräldrar som båda körde spårvagn och hur hon via skivbolaget Radium kom i kontakt med konst och konstnärer.

Mats Nileskär, årets Kerstin M Lundberg-pristagare ges en fyllig intervju. Nobelpristagaren Herta Müller på seminariet Rörlighet, en del i "Judisk vår - minoriteter i dialog". Teater Tribunalen fortsätter sin uttalat politiska linje och har just haft premiär på Experimentet, en pjäs om nedmonterad välfärd av Lucia Cajchanova. Fotografen An-My Lê flögs ut i en amerikansk helikopter under Vietnamkrigets sista dagar 1975. Nu tar hon bilder av USA som världsomspännande stormakt. Idag tilldelas P3:s soulexpert Mats Nileskär kulturredaktionens Kerstin M Lundberg-pris, och i Kritiken gör vi en fyllig intervju med honom. Priset instiftades för fem år sedan för att hedra radiojournalisten Kerstin M Lundbergs mångåriga arbete. Prissumman är på 50 000 kronor och ska gå till en kulturjournalist som ”med kulturjournalistikens utrycksmedel och stilistisk skärpa breddar kunskapen om kulturliv utanför Sverige”. I helgen var Nobelpristagaren Herta Müller en av talarna på seminariet Rörlighet, en del i evenemanget Judisk vår – minoriteter i dialog som hålls fyra helger under våren i Stockholm och Malmö, och Kritiken var förstås där. Den experimentella Teater Tribunalen fortsätter sin uttalat politiska linje och har just haft premiär på Experimentet av Lucia Cajchanova, en pjäs om nedmonterad välfärd som baseras på intervjuer med sjukskrivna, anhöriga, forskare och vårdpersonal. Jenny Aschenbrenner samtalar med Anneli Dufva. Fotografen An-My Lê är född i Vietnam och därifrån flögs hon ut i en amerikansk helikopter under Vietnamkrigets sista dagar 1975. Sedan hon blev fotograf har hon intresserat sig för USA som världsomspännande stormakt, och Mia Gerdin hav träffat henne i utställningen på Hasselblads i Göteborg.
