The Gadget Show #025 (MP3 – 13.2MB – 38min 20sec)

LISTEN HERE

I finally bought myself a Digital SLR camera the other week. I thought that it was a great opportunity to talk about digital cameras, and decided to invite an expert whose not only taught the subject, but lives it. Franklin McMahon is a photographer and media artist. He taught digital photography at the Maine College of Art, won many awards, and has worked with client like Microsoft, FOX and Time Warner.

Check out his show’s at Media Artist Secrets, Creative Cow, and his new one called podmodel.
