October 2025 - The Show for Photographers

In this final episode of Photography Online for 2025, we look at what we reckon is the best value new camera on the market.

The team attempt to complete their Great British Icons photo challenge, but the jury is out as to whether they ticked all the icons. To decide that, we need your help. We'll be back in January with more photography related content. Our plan is to release more videos more often, but each video will be shorter than our trademark magazine style shows we have done up to now.

The team head out into the country to find a landscape scene which typifies the English countryside, but hit a problem. We then look at how useful reflectors can be for any subject you can get close to. Topics covered in this show include, planning, composition, filter use, tilt shift lenses, bouncing light with reflectors, photography inspirations and influences, black and white, nighttime city photography and much more.

April 2025 - The Show for Photographers

The team attempt to photograph a bagpiper wearing tartan in front of a castle, to get 3 British iconic subjects ticked off their challenge list. We then go on a photo walk and shoot a whole roll of film on a camera which has no lightmeter to see if we can judge the exposure of every scene just by using our eyes. How many will be correctly exposed? If you’re a fan of our out-takes, then make sure you watch to the very end!
