No, you haven't traveled back in time; we recorded this episode the first week in June. Technical difficulties and illness prevented us from getting it posted. We're sorry we dropped out of sight, but we're back now and you're stuck with us. Anyway, in episode 51, Matt goes cuckoo for camera phones and we check out your pretty portraits.

Matt's out sick and I'm trying to crank out the Canon T1i review.

I am fresh out of school and I have a TON of unprinted photos. Seeing as I do not have access to my school's printing and framing equipment...where do I go? I can make 11x19 prints on my printer, but I want to go larger.
Looking forward to the next show,
Isaiah
Hopefully you'll remember me. I am the guy that fell backwards & had the run-in with the security/police shooting picts of the hotel. All of that was preparation for my trip to Disney (the real reason to get the new Canon XS. I managed to do 7 days in the parks on only a 4G memory card. I edited every day & managed 756 photos in 7 days. It could have been more, but the family got tired of my obsession.
I noticed something different. I am sure it is old news to you, but it was a revelation to me. I started to use the ISO selection a lot (sunny, cloudy, night, fireworks, indoor, flash). This really threw me for a loop for the first 2 days until I realized that on 100 speed, I was able to get a lot more photos on the card than if I was using 400 speed. At first, I thought there was something wrong with the camera as my remaining number of shots (which I watched very closely) changed radically. It seemed random, until the epiphany.
I am totally fine with this now & keep it in mind as I shoot. Can you explain why the higher speeds need more space on the card.
Thanks.
Mark

Hi Matt and Lori,
I'm in the market for a macro lens for my Nikon D40x and was wondering how one would go about choosing one. I primarily shoot yarn, knitting, and food for my blog (www.knitguy.com) and while I use the macro setting a lot, I think I'd probably be happier if I also had a macro lens. Budget is a bit of an issue because I am a college student but my birthday is coming up which is always helpful.
Thanks and love the show,
Adam (aka. Knitguy)
