Gerda Taro hat die moderne Kriegsfotografie begründet, zusammen mit ihrem Mann Robert Capa. Und damit viele andere berühmte Fotograf*innen beeinflusst, von Lee Miller bis Margaret Bourke-White und den Gründern der Agentur Magnum. Geboren in Stuttgart 1910 als Tochter jüdischer Flüchtlinge aus Galizien, rettete sie sich 1933 ins Exil nach Paris. Dort lernte sie Robert Capa kennen, der noch Andrei Friedmann hieß, und gab sich jenen Namen, unter dem man „das Mädchen mit der Leica“ bis heute kennt.

Nói đến Marc Riboud – nhiếp ảnh gia người Pháp, qua đời năm 2016 – giới yêu thích nhiếp ảnh đều nhớ đến bức ảnh huyền thoại « Cô gái và cành hoa ». Bức ảnh chụp năm 1967 trở thành biểu tượng của phong trào phản chiến Mỹ, chống chiến tranh Việt Nam. Trong suốt 10 năm, 1966 – 1976, Marc Riboud cùng với chiếc máy ảnh Leica, rong ruổi từ Bắc vô Nam, ghi lại những « khoảnh khắc » của cuộc chiến tàn khốc. Đó là những hình ảnh nam nữ công nhân làm việc trong nhà xưởng ở miền bắc, những nam – nữ quân dân du kích, những góa phụ khóc thương người thân bị mất hay những đứa trẻ trên đường đi học. Rồi từ những cuộc biểu tình chống chiến tranh tại Mỹ cho đến những vùng đất ở Bắc Việt Nam, đi qua những cảnh tan hoang ở Huế.Những « khoảnh khắc » đôi khi dung dị, bình yên, nhưng cũng có lúc đau thương, kinh hoàng, đã được nhà nhiếp ảnh người Pháp ghi lại qua những tấm ảnh trắng đen, biến ông thành một nhân chứng độc đáo và khác thường cho một cuộc chiến khốc liệt bị toàn cầu hóa.Những âm bản này được ông thực hiện trong vòng 10 năm, 1966 – 1976 sau hơn một chục chuyến đi đến Việt Nam. Đó cũng là thời điểm tại Pháp và nhiều nơi khác, đặc biệt là Mỹ, giới văn hóa, trí thức cũng như một số nghệ sĩ, nhiếp ảnh gia phản đối mạnh mẽ chiến tranh. Marc Riboud còn chịu ảnh hưởng từ người vợ đầu tiên là Barbara Chase, là một nghệ sĩ Mỹ, và do vậy ông đã có được một mối liên hệ với Mỹ, với chính sách của Mỹ.Là một người rất ủng hộ độc lập, từng tham gia kháng chiến trong Đệ Nhị Thế Chiến, Marc Riboud có niềm tin sâu sắc là những dân tộc đấu tranh cho nền độc lập vào thời điểm đó sẽ giành được thắng lợi và do vậy, đối với cuộc chiến tranh tại Việt Nam, ông cảm thấy như « bị thôi thúc » phải làm chứng. Phản đối chiến tranh, nhưng ông cũng lên án cả chế độ chuyên chế độc tài thời kỳ hậu chiến.2025 đánh dấu 50 năm chiến tranh Việt Nam kết thúc. Nhân dịp này, bảo tàng Nghệ thuật châu Á – Guimet tại Paris và hiệp hội Những người bạn của Marc Riboud có cuộc triển lãm « Marc Riboud – tập ảnh Việt Nam 1966 – 1976 » kéo dài đến ngày 12/05/2025.Bà Lorène Durret, đồng phụ trách triển lãm Marc Riboud, đã dành cho RFI Tiếng Việt một cuộc phỏng vấn, hồi tưởng lại những suy nghĩ, tâm tư và cách thức làm việc của Marc Riboud, một trong những nhiếp ảnh gia bậc thầy trong thế kỷ XX.RFI Tiếng Việt : Thân chào Lorène Durret. Trước hết, bà có thể cho biết vì sao Marc Riboud đã chọn đến Việt Nam giai đoạn 1966 – 1976 ?Lorène Durret : Ông ấy biết rõ những gì đang xảy ra, đúng là trong suốt thời gian này ông ấy rất chú ý và quan tâm. Vì vậy, từ tiếng Anh chính xác hơn nhiều, người ta nói « concerned và concerned photographer ». Ông là một nhiếp ảnh gia quan tâm, có nghĩa là ông cảm thấy lo lắng về những gì đang xảy ra. Vì vậy, rõ ràng là ông đã có thông tin về Chiến tranh Việt Nam. Hơn nữa, Việt Nam cũng có mối quan hệ với Pháp trong suốt chiều dài lịch sử (…)Marc Riboud luôn là một người cực kỳ độc lập. Khi còn trẻ, ông đã tham gia kháng chiến trong Thế chiến thứ hai tại Lyon từ năm 1942. Khi đó ông 19 tuổi, đang học trung học và cho đến năm 1944, ông đã tham gia chiến đấu với nhóm du kích quân Vercors. Vì vậy, ông tin chắc rằng những người dân đang đấu tranh giành độc lập vào thời điểm đó sẽ giành được độc lập (…)Vào thời điểm đó, rõ ràng là họ không biết chuyện gì sẽ xảy ra, nhưng dù sao đi nữa, ông vẫn theo dõi tin tức và cảm thấy cần phải chia sẻ trải nghiệm của mình. Tất nhiên, vào thời điểm đó, vẫn còn rất ít nhà dân có vô tuyến truyền hình. Thông tin được đưa qua báo chí, tạp chí và nhiệm vụ của ông với tư cách là một nhiếp ảnh gia và phóng viên ảnh là đến đó để ghi lại những gì đang diễn ra và làm chứng.Khi xem ảnh của Marc Riboud, người ta có cảm giác ông như người ngoài cuộc, lặng lẽ đứng nhìn, quan sát, và cũng không quan điểm chính trị ?Lorène Durret : Đúng, chúng ta có thể cảm nhận được sự đồng cảm của ông, nhưng trước hết và quan trọng nhất là sự đồng cảm với những người ông chụp ảnh và những người trên đường phố : Đó là những thường dân, người dân, công dân. Ông là người rất khiêm tốn trong cách chụp ảnh mọi người và luôn giữ khoảng cách để có thể thể hiện và quan sát.Và ông là người luôn tin tưởng vào những quan sát của mình do ông không bao giờ là một nhà đấu tranh không giống như những người khác xung quanh ông (…) Marc Riboud có một ý thức chính trị tốt, ông sáng suốt và không bị thu hút bởi nguy hiểm. Nhất là khi nhắc đến Việt Nam, hiển nhiên khi nghĩ đến những bức ảnh về Chiến tranh Việt Nam, người ta thường nghĩ ngay đến những bức ảnh chiến đấu.Chúng tôi có rất nhiều ảnh về quân đội Mỹ và quả thật đó không phải là những bức ảnh về cuộc sống thường ngày của người dân, không phải lúc nào cũng vậy. Tuy nhiên, trong những bức ảnh này, điều tôi thấy thú vị là chúng ta cảm nhận được độ dài của thời gian dài. Chúng ta cũng nhận thấy thời gian cuộc xung đột là rất dài.Trong khi ở những tác phẩm khác có đôi chút khác biệt, chúng ta chỉ thấy cao trào và bạo lực nhưng ở một thời điểm chứ không phải trong khoảng thời gian dài như thế này. Và những gì tác phẩm của ông thể hiện và ở đó ông hơi lạc lõng, tôi nghĩ so với các nhiếp ảnh gia và nhà báo khác mà ông đã trao đổi ở nơi khác, thì đó là một thế giới thu nhỏ bị thay đổi từ những luồng thông tin hạn hẹp. Thế nên, công việc của ông thực sự là cuộc sống của người dân trong thời chiến.Ông lên án chiến tranh nhưng không bao giờ phơi bày cảnh chết chóc cũng như các chiến tuyến ?Lorene Durret : Như tôi có nói về quá khứ của ông như một kháng chiến quân vì ông gần kề với chiến tranh, nên ông hiểu chiến tranh. Ông mất bạn bè, nên ông biết chiến tranh là như thế nào trong một bối cảnh khác. Nhưng ông đã cận kề với bạo lực và ông không muốn trở thành nhiếp ảnh gia ghi lại cảnh đó. Một người cháu họ của Marc Riboud, nhà văn Camille de Toledo, đã nói về điều này và về việc, ông đã từng chứng kiến cái chết và do vậy ông hướng tới sự sống.Và trong những bức ảnh của ông, chúng ta thấy được sự sống. Đó là điều ấn tượng nhất, và ngay cả trong những bức ảnh về đống đổ nát và hoang tàn, những bức ảnh về Huế trong đống đổ nát của ông cũng đặc biệt ấn tượng, nhưng những gì chúng ta thấy là sự sống đang trở lại và một nỗi đau nào đó nhưng cũng có một niềm hy vọng.Ông thích gặp người dân, nhưng không chỉ ở một phía. Người xem có thể thấy cả cuộc sống thường nhật ở cả hai phía vĩ tuyến 17 cũng như là những hoạt động thường nhật của quân đội Mỹ ?Lorene Durret : Vâng, bởi vì ông ấy thích đi và chứng kiến cả hai phía, và ông ấy nghĩ điều đó quan trọng, đó cũng là vị trí của ông với tư cách là một nhà báo. Chúng ta có thể nói là nhà báo vào thời điểm Chiến tranh Việt Nam vì ông cũng đã viết bài và chúng tôi trưng bày trong triển lãm hai bài báo mà ông viết cho tờ Le Monde, từng là tờ báo lớn nhất của Pháp, và vẫn chưa xuất bản ảnh vào thời điểm đó.Tôi tin rằng ông ấy luôn phân biệt giữa những người ra quyết định, những người có quyền lực và những người dân thường, bất kể là ở miền nam, miền bắc hay và đó là những binh sĩ Mỹ trẻ tuổi mà ông lên án « sự nhồi sọ » trong bài báo, những người lính đã tin chắc vào những gì họ đang làm và những gì họ đang làm là cần thiết. Marc Riboud có một sự đồng cảm nào đó với những người ông chụp ảnh. Ông không coi tất cả mọi người là người ủng hộ hay là binh sĩ.Nhắc đến Marc Riboud là phải nhắc đến bức ảnh « Cô gái và cành hoa ». Bức ảnh nổi tiếng phản chiến này đã cho phép ông có được tấm giấy thông hành để đến miền bắc, gặp và phỏng vấn ông Hồ Chí Minh, để rồi cho ra đời một bức ảnh khác không kém phần nổi tiếng, được đăng lại trên trang nhất nhiều tuần san quốc tế thời đó là Hồ Chí Minh và Phạm Văn Đồng bên bàn trà. Dù vậy, điều thú vị là Marc Riboud, cũng không ngần ngại lên án chế độ chuyên chế độc tài với những bức ảnh về trại cải tạo năm 1976 ?Lorene Durret : Đúng vậy, đây là những bức ảnh đã được báo chí công bố vào thời điểm đó và có tầm quan trọng ngày nay vì chúng là dấu vết của những gì đã tồn tại và trong mọi trường hợp, điều quan trọng đối với ông là phải có khoảng cách và sự quan sát này, một lần nữa, đó là vì ông không phải là một nhà hoạt động nên điều này cho phép ông quan sát với thái độ trung lập hơn.RFI Tiếng Việt xin cảm ơn Lorène Durret, đồng phụ trách triển lãm ảnh « Marc Riboud, Việt Nam 1966-1976 », bảo tàng Guimet, Paris.

El debate alrededor de la inteligencia artificial se instala en las escuelas de diseño, animación y fotografía de París. De la productividad a la sensibilidad artística, la comunidad educativa busca respuestas y garantías en cuanto a las salidas profesionales. ChatGPT, Midjourney y Firefly son solo algunos de los muchos nombres comerciales de la inteligencia artificial generativa (IAG), una tecnología que se nutre de datos, textos e imágenes para entrenar sus algoritmos y, a su vez, producir nuevos contenidos escritos y audiovisuales. Aunque el origen de la IA generativa se remonta a varias décadas atrás, el desarrollo exponencial durante los últimos años explica el debate acerca de sus límites éticos, su impacto ecológico y la creciente preocupación por su falta de regulación. Y también sobre la banalización del arte y el trabajo creativo.“Es un insulto a la vía misma”, declaró Hayao Miyazaki, fundador del famoso estudio de animación Studio Ghibli, tras la ola de imágenes inspiradas en el estilo de sus películas creadas con inteligencia artificial. Una opinión compartida por un sector de los estudiantes que aspiran a trabajar en dicha industria.Foco en la propiedad intelectual“Es regurgitar un montón de imágenes hechas por artistas a los que no han pedido su consentimiento. No tiene sentido”, se queja Lianne, estudiante en cine de animación en la escuela de Gobelins París. "Es ilegal, no pagan por los derechos de autor, ¡es un robo!", añade su compañera Laura. Sin una delimitación clara, la cuestión de la autoría sigue siendo confusa.“Es algo cada vez más presente en nuestro día a día y creo que irá a más”, opina Louane, que también cursa cine de animación en Gobelins. Prefiere no pensar en la inteligencia artificial porque le produce cierto estrés, “pero es verdad que hay que tenerlo en cuenta”, admite. “Si hacemos una formación tan reconocida como ésta es para encontrar trabajo después. Si la IA nos lo quita, es estúpido hacerla”, concluye.El diseño gráfico, ¿en peligro?Difícil obviar la cuestión. Según el último Informe sobre el Futuro de los Empleos del Foro Económico Mundial, publicado en enero de 2025, la automatización que la IA trae consigo supondrá la destrucción de 92 millones de puestos de trabajo para 2030, mientras que creará otros 170 millones. Entre las profesiones con una rápida tendencia de declive, según este informe, está el diseño gráfico.“Una compañera de trabajo que no tenía estudios en este ámbito hizo un logo con ChatGPT y pensó que así ya podría ser grafista. Me lo dijo como si mi trabajo fuese un fraude", cuenta Axelle, estudiante de la escuela de diseño LISAA.Útil para ganar tiempoPero la IA no es perfecta. Como cualquier otra herramienta, para los que se sirven de ella como tal, es necesario utilizarla correctamente para obtener los resultados deseados. "Te hace ganar mucho tiempo, pero hay que saber hacer un prompt (la orden que se le da a la IA para que responda con un texto, imagen o vídeo, NDLR) y seleccionar las imágenes correctas. Siempre hará falta un director artístico que la supervise”, asegura Noémie, también de la escuela LISAA. “Tengo un bagaje suficiente como para poder encontrar un empleo. No puedes no usarla solo por tener miedo a que te quite el trabajo."Algunos la usan porque la ven como una herramienta, otros la rechazan por motivos éticos o ecológicos, pero el debate alrededor de la inteligencia artificial roza incluso lo filosófico. "Mientras no tengas demasiado apego a las herramientas y mantengas tu independencia y tus ideas, me parece bien", dice Tony, alumno de diseño gráfico y animación en la escuela ECV, aventurándose a hacer el paralelismo con la película “Her” (Spike Jonze, 2013), donde el personaje interpretado por Joaquín Phoenix se enamora de una inteligencia artificial.“En la escuela usamos la IA para generar storyboards que luego convertimos en secuencias de video.”. Para él, la utilidad está en la fase de preproducción de los proyectos, donde asegura que le permite avanzar mucho más rápido.Priorizar la creatividad y la sensibilidadEl grado de permisión e incorporación de la IAG en los programas educativos depende de cada escuela, de cada departamento y de cada docente. “Nosotros incorporamos la IA desde el primer año de la formación. Los alumnos aprenden técnicas de fotografía analógica y digital, pero también el tratamiento de sus fotos con inteligencia artificial”, explica Yann Philippe, enseñante de fotografía y vídeo en Gobelins."No sentimos que nuestro trabajo esté directamente amenazado por la IA y creemos que, con un buen uso e inteligencia, puede potenciar la creatividad de algunos alumnos”. Son sorprendentemente los que ingresan con amplios conocimientos de IA generativa los menos interesados en trabajar con ella y más con el formato analógico y los procesos tradicionales, a diferencia de quienes no la han utilizado aún. “De todas formas, las herramientas avanzan a tal velocidad que cuando terminamos de preparar los cursos, ya están obsoletas."“Hice el curso de Midjourney de Gobelins, pero me interesa más la autenticidad”, confiesa Axel, alumno de fotografía, con su cámara Leica analógica colgada del hombro. “Con IA o sin IA, lo importante es la motivación y la sensibilidad que cada artista pone en sus proyectos.” Este precisamente lo que Yann Philippe busca desarrollar porque considera que “es ahí donde está su valor añadido”.La inteligencia artificial generativa avanza más rápido que el ritmo al que se da respuesta a las dudas y preguntas que ésta plantea, y se exige un marco normativo a la altura de los retos que conlleva. La Ley de Inteligencia Artificial de la Unión Europea, en vigor desde el 1 de agosto de 2024, es un primer paso, pero no parece suficiente. En el ámbito educativo, la UNESCO ha realizado una llamada urgente a los gobiernos de todo el mundo para que la regulen de manera eficaz.

Irina Nikifortchuk was 19 years old and a Ukrainian schoolteacher when she was abducted to be a forced laborer in the Leica camera factory in Nazi Germany. Eventually pulled from the camp hospital to work as a domestic in the Leica owners' household, Irina survived the war and eventually found her way to Canada. Decades later Sasha Colby, Irina's granddaughter, seeks out her grandmother's story over a series of summer visits and gradually begins to interweave the as-told-to story with historical research. As she delves deeper into the history of the Leica factory and World War II forced labor, she discovers the parallel story of Elsie Kühn-Leitz, Irina's rescuer and the factory heiress, later imprisoned and interrogated by the Gestapo on charges of “excessive humanity.” This is creative nonfiction at its best as the mystery of Irina's life unspools skillfully and arrestingly. Despite the horrors that the story must tell, it is full of life, humor, food, and the joy of ordinary safety in Canada. The Matryoshka Memoirs: A Story of Ukrainian Forced Labour, the Leica Camera Factory, and Nazi Resistance (ECW Press, 2023) takes us into a forgotten corner of history, weaving a rich and satisfying tapestry of survival and family ties and asking what we owe those who aid us.

Paris Chong and Geoff Whitman discuss his upcoming book project featuring his photography of Pearl Jam, an idea that originated from the band's management. Geoff, a longtime Leica user, mentions his inspirations like Jim Marshall and Danny Clinch, the latter of whom gave him advice to "be artful" while photographing the band. They also touch on Geoff's experience working with Pearl Jam, emphasizing how positive and supportive the band and crew are, contrasting it with stories of difficult personalities in the industry. Geoff reveals he's been to 150 Pearl Jam shows, shot a significant portion of them, and now gets paid to do so, which he still finds surreal.Show Clip from The Paris Chong Show with Geoff Whitmanhttps://youtu.be/FssHZQ9g-lchttps://www.theparischongshow.com

Henley Bailey is a photographer and entrepreneur based in the UK. His business, Akara Labs, makes accessories for Leica and Pixii rangefinder style cameras with more on the way, and we had a great chat about professional photography and making things as well as revealing an exciting new product idea!More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you'll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I'm interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.

Barry Cromhout is a total unknown to both Robbie and our listeners - but after listening to Robbie on Andy Stump's Cleared Heart podcast describing his grandfather Leo Kroger and his gun - he realized he'd met Robbie's grandfather in 1998 and is one of the only remaining people with one of his wooden business cards. After exchanging a photo, Robbie invited him on for this episode, where the two exchange stories about the man, Leo Kroger, and the “Wild impression” he left on Barry Cromhout in 1998.

The Shutter Brothers are back fresh from an early morning photowalk to Richey Ridge Falls (near Soddy Daisy, Tennessee) and are ready to share their recent experiences photographing both together and also with a group of fellow film photography podcasters at Old Car City in White, Georgia. Along the way, Wayne and Kevin disuss ideas for the 4th Annual Photowalk with the Shutter Brothers. It all starts with getting out with your camera ends with having a photograph to share. Ane speaking of sharing, Wayne is sharing some of his photography at the Annual Photography Exhibit & Competition at the Arts Center in Athens, Tennessee. The show is presented by the Athens Area Council for the Arts and runs from March 24 to May 30, 2025. If you live anywhere near East Tennessee, then make the trip to Athens to check out Wayne's work. Now that Kevin has the Leica M2 he's wanted for so long, it didn't take long for him to think about adding a 35mm lens to his kit. Actually, he already has a Leica 35mm lens, but it is a screwmount Elmar f3.5. Can it be used with a Leica M camera? The answer is "yes," if you have a LTM to M mount adapter. Leica made them back in the day, and now they are made cheaply in China. But just how compatible are they. Find out in the show. it's spring, and that means time for some de-cluttering. So, Kevin is giving away a camera! It's a fully functional Minolta Maxxum XTsi with a Minolta AF 35-70mm f4 zoom lens. It's the camera Kevin used for color photography on his Alaskan cruise last September, and now it can be yours. You can enter by email at unclejonesyscameras@gmail.com. Once agaiin our listeners chime in with some great email. We'd love to hear from you, too. Happy Photography! Wayne's photography can be seen at The Arts Center in Athens, Tennessee through May 30, 2025. Gegory Davis (The Naked Photographer) created two YouTube vieos about his experience with the Intrepid Enlarger, which used LED light to emulate contrast filters. https://youtu.be/Rqq_wwrZxk0?si=3JEXYBVQje9gBS3S https://youtu.be/bp7SN4ua1cw?si=XFeM1J4uo6lK3B_h

There have been significant rumors and discussions about DSC's future since the Atlanta show in January of 2025. The show was not a success, and as such there have been rumbling from exhibitors, partners, and others about what DSC will do next. Robbie reached out to DSC CEO Rob McCanna to come on the podcast and talk about all of it, post the press release that just came out explaining the route forward for DSC over the next 5 years. Rob talks about his tenure as the new CEO, addresses rumors about the show and the move from Dallas to Atlanta, and provides a vision for the future of what they're going to do next and where they go from here. He explains the mistakes that were made, and the measures being put in place to rectify those mistakes, and puts to bed the internet bashing and rumor mills.

Danny Bligh is a photographer and videographer based in the USA. He's a dear friend and was my first guest on Prime Lenses so it seemed fitting to bring him back for the first episode of year 2. We talk all things Canon, Leica and even sneak in some instant film. More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you'll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I'm interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.

Two episodes ago Jeff expressed cynicism about iPhone add-ons that try to make the phone more like a traditional camera. And yet here we are looking at Kirk's new Leica LUX Grip accessory...and not hating it? Learn about why this could be the camera grip for the iPhone that succeeds where others falter, and how the Leica LUX app does some very smart things in the name of photography.

In yet another request from our listeners for topics you wanted to hear, for Episode 88, you can include me as someone whose been interested in hearing an episode about the Kodak Retina and other German Kodaks. For many years, whenever I needed to write something about the Retina, the person I always reached out to was Dr. David Jentz. David is not only the founder of the Historical Society for Retina Cameras, but also has published multiple written works about the Retina and its history. In addition to his knowledge about the Retina, David frequently collaborates with historian Klaus Schicht who has studied the man who created the Retina, Dr. August Nagel. Although Klaus does not appear on the show, David was able to quote some information regarding topics we discussed on this show. If one Kodak historian was not enough, we also invited Todd Gustavson from the George Eastman Museum to be on the show to fill in the blanks for any other Kodak related questions which came up. This was a closed episode, so we did not have any callers, and both Paul and Theo weren't able to make it, but what we lacked in callers, we more than made up for in fascinating Kodak, Nagel, and Retina history. Listen to Episode 87 to get a background on who Dr. August Nagel was, how he became a doctor, brief histories of his time working for Contessa Nettel, Zeiss-Ikon, and Nagel Kamerwerke prior to joining Kodak. Did you know that before Kodak AG made cameras, they made film in Germany? We discuss other German Kodaks such as the Recomar, Pupille, Kodak Duo Six-20, and the mysterious Kodak Regent. We get into the differences between the use of "Nr." and "Type" when referring to prewar and postwar cameras, and finally solve the mystery of Paul's Retinette Angenieux lens. In addition to camera history, we also take a deep dive into Kodak's introduction to making 35mm film. While Kodak's type 135 daylight loading cassette was their most notable contribution to 35mm film in the 1930s, did you know they made 35mm film for the Leica and Contax before that? David shares with us information about Kodaks original 35mm film, along with some detailed patent information about the Retina, and much more! As always, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are influenced by you! 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 into shooting or collecting cameras, no matter how long you've been doing it, 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, the Camerosity Discord server, 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 getting on a boat and heading on a "Three Hour Tour" for our second Desert Island episode. If you were stranded on a desert island with only three cameras, which three would they be? Will a high spec but fragile electronic camera make the cut, or will people choose less technically impressive models built to withstand a lot more abuse? Let us know what you'd choose! We will record Episode 88 on Monday, February 24th at 7pm Central Standard Time and 8pm Eastern Standard Time. In This Episode David's Origin Story / His First Camera was a Kodak Retina IIIS Kodak Used to Have a Camera Museum in Stuttgart David Jentz Formed with Peter Tosh the Historical Society of Retina Cameras HSRC Received Permission from Kodak and the Rights to use the Actual Retina Logo Are the Retinas Separated in the George Eastman Museum? / There Are 22,000 Items in the Eastman Museum Collection Who was Dr. August Nagel? / Nagel Started Contessa Nettel and Merged with Zeiss-Ikon in 1926 Nagel Worked for Zeiss-Ikon for About 18 Months and then Formed His Own Nagel Werke Nagels First Cameras were the Recomar, Vollenda, and Pupille Kodak Gave Nagel Very Little Direction, He Was Free to Do What He Wanted Kodak And Nagel Both Benefited from the Two Companies Working Together If You Ship a Camera and Lens Separately, There are No Tariffs Nagel was Most Famously Known as a Great Designer Kodak's Design of the New Daylight Loading 35mm Cassette Kodak Made 35mm Film for Leicas and Contaxes Before the Release of Type 135 Film Was the Retina an Immediate Success? / Why Were the Nr. 117, 118, and 119 Released So Quickly Kodak Duo Six-20 and Other Nagel Designed Cameras Mike Has Questions About Nagel's Role in Making the Kodak Regent / Kodak Regent II Kodak's Transition During World War II / Early Post War Retinas Used Steel in Their Construction Are Retinas with the f/2 Ektar Lenses Worth Paying a Premium / 47mm f/2 Kodak Ektars Were Also on the Premier Instrument Kardon Kodak's CAMEROSITY Date Codes / Many Retinas Were Sold through US PX Stores / Identifying PX Retinas David Jentz Dispels Some of the Myths Mike Got Wrong in His Reviews Dr. August Nagel Never Once Used the Word "Type" to Identify Different Cameras He Made The Mystery of Paul's Angenieux Lens / French Kodak Retinettes Links The Camerosity Podcast is now on Discord!

Top shot © Kristof Ramon The dynamic arena of competitive cycling photography is not for the faint of heart. This grueling specialty requires a mix of split-second reaction times, intuitive technical mastery, and the ability to anticipate—and even more important—embrace risk. It takes a special breed of photographer to continuously capture every ounce of emotion packed into this sport, from bruising injuries and bitter disappointments to the exaltation of a win. For today's show, we've brought together two passionate cycling aficionados, former competitive cyclist and renowned street photographer Phil Penman and Kristof Ramon, a cycling photography specialist who recently released his first book on the subject. While they're introduced as strangers, get ready to be wowed by the synchronicity of their shared experiences, and the remarkable chemistry that grows between them over the course of the show. Most people's awareness of competitive cycling revolves around coverage of the Tour de France or other major races shown on TV. Our conversation delves much deeper than this, to reveal what happens behind the scenes, and show both the intensity of purpose and the many stages of suffering that's a hallmark of this sport. Kristof's book is titled The Art of Suffering for a reason. As he aptly sums up in the book's opening quote: “Where the conditions get grimmer and the riders start to suffer, that's when the more interesting stories begin.” Guests: Phil Penman & Kristof Ramon Episode Timeline: 3:56: Phil Penman's connection to the competitive cycling world and how his insight as a cyclist informs his photography of the sport. 7:45: The logistics of photographing competitive cycling and the perils of damaging photo equipment. 10:36: The creative aspect to photographing competitive cycling and how to think outside the box to get impactful shots. 15:16: The many stages of suffering involved in competitive cycling, and the pride riders take in having this documented visually. 20:35: Photographer access, the difference between training rides and race days, and the distinctions between agency access and working independently. 26:26: Changes to Kristof's photographic approach and the influence of social media in the sport's evolution. 31:31: Technical aspects of cycling photography, understanding light, capturing speed, and putting in the time so to react intuitively to picture opportunities. 43:44: Episode Break 44:53: Communication strategies, building rapport with riders and teams, and people skills given the sport's international reach. 47:51: Cycling's rich history as a professional sport, and recent changes initiated by British Team Sky that helped the sport evolve. 54:45: The back story to Kristof's Art of Suffering book project and how his collaboration with cycling writer Matt Rendell helped identify suffering as a narrative element. 58:40: Working with clients, balancing that work with personal projects, and developing a distinctive voice as a photographer. 1:06:15: How to start out as a competitive cycling photographer, questions about credentials, and adapting to new networks to distribute your work. 1:13:23: Balancing technical aspects of action photography with the desired emotional response while building in certainties and calculating risk. Guest Bios: British-born, New York-based photographer Phil Penman has documented the ever-changing scene of New York City's streets for more than 25 years. and he has quite a bit of experience in the world of professional cycling himself. In his career as a news and magazine photographer, Phil has photographed major public figures and historical events. His reportage following the 9/11 terrorist attack was featured in major print publications and media broadcasts worldwide, and his work covering New York City's pandemic lockdown is in the collection of the U.S. Library of Congress. In addition to exhibiting at Leica galleries in New York, Washington, D.C., Boston, and London, Phil's signature street photography has appeared in international exhibitions as far afield as Venice, Berlin, and Sydney. He also tours the world teaching photo workshops for Leica Akademie. Phil's books, "Street" published in 2019, and "New York Street Diaries" published in 2023 both became best-sellers and have been featured at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Kristof Ramon is a pro-cycling photographer who covers some of the world's most prestigious races, including the Tour de France, the Giro d' Italia, the Tour of Flanders and Paris Roubaix. Born and raised in Belgium, Kristof discovered photography while attending film school at age 19. He eventually followed his passion for cycling and photography and has focused exclusively on this sport since 2011. Working under the name Kramon, his talent for storytelling and his ability to capture the atmosphere and raw emotion of racing makes his images stand out from typical race photography. Kristof's reputation has earned him the respect and trust of many of the biggest racing teams and riders - which is why he's able to capture such extraordinary in-between moments and behind-the-scenes images. The riders are always his primary focus, as evidenced in his close-up portraits of racers caked in sweat, mud, dust, snow, and grime. Kristof's first book, The Art of Suffering, was released in June 2024 by Laurence King Publishing.

Well, 2024 has certainly come and gone in a flash, meaning it's time once again for us to reflect on new photo offerings in our annual Cameras of the Year episode, now renamed Photo Gear of the Year. Featured in our discussion are new releases from Canon, FUJIFILM, Leica, Mint, Nikon, OM SYSTEM, Panasonic, Ricoh Pentax, and Sony. In the words of our recurring guest, Kevin Rickert, B&H's Senior Sales Trainer for Photography and Lighting, “Everything old is new again” at least when it comes to this year's most sought-after camera releases. A penchant for pocketable, fixed lens cameras led us to organize our camera offerings by type rather than in an alphabetical laundry list. Along with debating the current craze for “the digicam look,” we consider whether manufacturers will respond to consumers' increasing appetite for midrange point and shoots. After the break, we shift to the newest crop of flagship cameras that are built for speed, while also discussing notable updates to other new releases. We also shed light on the essential role served by firmware updates, both in trimming a new camera's time to market and allowing you to get more out of the camera you already have. As Kevin points out, “It's an important part of having a camera.
