Kev’s still doing the walk of shame following his phone ringing at a funeral, though it seems Neale is to blame! Today, film simulations and how they work in that magic box we call a camera, keeping up with corporate speak, the blueprint for a new photography business, website advice, simple ‘CRM’ and embracing free marketing platforms. Also, we’re poking the bear on the Instagram theme, let’s call it ’the rematch,’ photo books or YouTube, which works best in terms of tuition, colour casts in Lightroom and is an X-T3 still a good purchase. It’s also the second concluding part of our conversation with Kristina Varaksina, UK Fujifilm ambassador.

Neale is loving his BIG switch to the X-H2s and Kev’s been to the races and has come back with a business plan to race ’Star’ at next year’s Gold Cup. On this week’s show, finding the gravity in grain, to sharpen or not to sharpen, how to improve the 'perfect digital camera', and mentoring; is it important, do you need one, and how do you search for the right one for you? Instagram, have the wheels fallen off or are we not posting correctly and when is a street photograph not a street photograph? Our guest is new Fujifilm X-Photographer, Kristina Varaksina, one of the UK’s new X-Photographers. We talk about self portraits and a project about ‘unconventional beauty’ in part 1 of 2 visits.
