#145 Screaming Raccoon Podcast
August 19, 2021 21:20 - 1 hour - 80.3 MBSo, after a summer break, it’s time again to brush up on your 2nd Grade classical history and moderately-sized furry mammal knowledge as it will be required to get the most out of this episode. Off topic we discuss the Fujinon 55mm f/2.2 and a potential clone, the new Voigtlander (is it a) Heliar 50mm f/1.5 (how can it be if it’s f/1.5 and six elements!), and how to manage a house move with a large camera collection.

#144 Vivitastic!
May 18, 2021 22:14 - 1 hour - 100 MBA slew of Vivitar purchases by Simon is the inspiration for a Vivitar special show where we give something of a potted history of the once great American lens brand. Whilst Vivitar has always been at the value end of the lens market, many of their lenses punched well beyond their weight. We discuss our collective experiences (well Johnny and Simon do...) of Vivitar lenses and pick our favourites and bargain buys.

#143 Isabel Curdes And Her Desert Island Lenses
April 22, 2021 23:25 - 1 hour - 79.8 MBIn July, 2019 (Episode #77), we thoroughly enjoyed having the rare talent that is Isabel Curdes on the show, so we are delighted to able to maroon her on our desert island with 4 special lenses and two cameras (one is a big digital camera with a stupid shutter speed dial (if you're Simon and have weird issues with shutter speed dials.)) Isabel's picks are pretty stellar, which is not surprising seeing how many lenses she's gone through over the years. As well as getting to know Isabel's lens...
#142 Global GAS
March 26, 2021 14:53 - 1 hour - 108 MBThere's something in the air, it's almost tangible... that's right it's pent up GAS, and we've just released it! Perry finally (and properly) breaks his No Nut November pledge from last October, Simon meets one of his hero lenses, and Johnny has extreme Leica satisfaction. Plenty of lens talk on adapting projection lenses, adapting the Contax G 35mm/2 Planar to Leica M, and some sharp practice by an auction house.

#141 Classic Lenses Land Of Confusion
March 06, 2021 22:35 - 1 hour - 102 MBIt appears that taking a month off has not helped with the intelligence and lens knowledge of the three hosts. Perry struggles with cleaning marks, Simon struggles with the Minolta Rokkor VFC 24mm f/2.8 and Johnny struggles with the "focus bubble" of the Russar MR-2. If you have any knowledge of the three subject above, beware listening will be painful...

#140 City By The Sea With Anil Mistry
January 31, 2021 21:40 - 2 hours - 122 MBAnil’s back and he’s brought his Unusual Eye with him. It’s just as well that we had Anil booked as Johnny had a Red Dot course to attend and could not be with us. As well as chatting about Anil’s excellent new photo book, which you can win a copy of it by entering our exciting new completion… This week’s podcast turned into a marathon session as we took the opportunity to (almost) finish off our latest backlog of emails.

#139 The Classic Digital Camera Podcast
January 17, 2021 03:09 - 1 hour - 79.4 MBWe're back and winter lockdown boredom is playing havoc with our minds. What else could explain our desire to talk about early digital point and shoots, DSLRs, and a particular Canon EF lens that causes Johnny to have an almost Indiana-level meltdown? We also catch up on the new Sony 7C, the now extinct Fuji 400H, and the Mamiya Press 100mm f2.8.

What is Johnny's perfect TLR accessory? Is Simon hoarding Tessars?

#136 Emails, Part Trois
November 21, 2020 08:29 - 1 hour - 75.4 MBJust when you thought that we could not keep it up for two weeks on the trot, another show turns up like a bad penny. The week sees us reach the finale of our listener emails trilogy and includes a special section where we hear from supporters of the much maligned Mike "it's all my fault" Gutterman. Having got the obligatory Leica talk out of the way, we cover some great topics including non-vanilla Pentax lenses, why a Nikon DSLR is rarely the answer to anything, and classic lens webcams. ...

November 13, 2020 21:52 - 1 hour - 83.8 MBA short catch up this week along with a superficial comparison between the Pentax 50mm f/1.2 and the Konica 57mm f/1.2.

October 29, 2020 20:26 - 1 hour - 84.3 MBWell we’ve had a three week break and it’s done us the world of good. We’re more relaxed and less opinionated than ever. A mountain of quality emails helps us to gently ease ourselves back into the swing of things with topics including Speed Panchros, Summarits, fake sharpness, a zoom lens, Jeremy North on the Mamiya C330 and other things. On another note, if you’re a thin-skinned Missourian, Hoosier, Wisconsinite or French, you may want to skip this week’s show. ________ LISTEN TO THE PO...

#131 BESSADACTYL
September 16, 2020 20:20 - 1 hour - 106 MBJust when Simon thought that Johnny and Perry would be done talking about rangefinders after last week’s great show with Dan Tamarkin, he was proven to be wrong. Simon was also wrong about the Mongoose by Ethan “Cameradactyl” Moses, which already met its funding target after just one day. Talking of Ethan, he skydives into the show and regales us with Pro stories that are Pro. ________ LISTEN TO THE PODCAST Pobean | iTunes | Stitcher ________ ETHAN MOSES CAMERADACTYL CAMERAS | CAME...

August 31, 2020 21:01 - 1 hour - 154 MBMike Eckman makes an overdue reappearance and we catch up on some of the things he’s been up to recently with his classic camera review website, www.mikeeckman.com. It turns out that Mike has been writing articles about cameras with bad names, and if taking about cameras such as the Trumpfreflex is not enough, Mike accepts the challenge to take part in the second Classic Lenses Podcast Pub Quiz.

#128 Simon's Table Of Gear
August 24, 2020 19:48 - 2 hours - 178 MBSimon did not get the chance to do an update on his latest gear related activity last week, so he more than makes up for it this week. Pleanty of Mamiya C330, Yashica YF & Yashinon 5cm f/1.8, Pentacon Six & 120mm f/2.8 Biometar, Large Format projection lenses, an EXA to MD adapter that was made in heaven and an equally (not quite) wonderful Kodak Retina Reflex III & Xenon 50mm f/1.9.

August 17, 2020 21:08 - 1 hour - 163 MBVersion 1: After two weeks of having guests on the show, Perry is bursting at the seams to tell us what he’s acquired. Although we finally get a show devoid of mathematics (that’s why it’s called maths and not math), however we can’t leave TLRs completely alone as we discuss the intricacies of square format photography. All this and quite a but of love for Schneider and a few DKL lenses, but no love for Kodak Retina camera bodies. Finally, don’t do an internet search for that phrase you will...

August 12, 2020 18:42 - 1 hour - 143 MBUK camera and lens repair guy, Lyndon Booth of Londinium Cameras dropped in for a chat and to answer listener emails. We had a great time with Lyndon on his first appearance back in February 2019 and his latest visit does not disappoint either. As you may expect, there’s talk of early Britons, (possibly relatives of Lyndon), Einstein, and camera bugs (the living kind that go out on family trips). ________ LISTEN TO THE PODCAST Pobean | iTunes | Stitcher ________ Lyndon Booth Websit...
#125 The Kaleidoscopic World of Mike Epstein
August 03, 2020 21:19 - 1 hour - 151 MBRegular listeners will recognis(z)e the name Mike Epstein as he's a friend of Perry's and also starred in a video we have on our YouTube channel. Mike and Perry give each other a lot of GAS and this partially explains Mike's vast camera and lens collection. We also hear about Mike's home made kaleidoscope filter that has a hole where one might expect to see beads. ________ LISTEN TO THE PODCAST Pobean | iTunes | Stitcher ________ MIKE EPSTEIN Frame Focus Foto ________ EPISODE...
#124 Xenotar or Planar? Not a Tessar, obvs
July 27, 2020 20:06 - 1 hour - 115 MBOn last week’s show, Perry got big Rolleiflex GAS, so big that he was forced to buy one. SPOILER ALERT! However, Perry’s path to Xenotar enlightenment was not as flat and true as it should have been, and his Rolleiflex dream was crushed. Fear not, for Simon now has Rolleiflex GAS and Perry’s not done with the iconic TLR just yet.

Anil presides over a Fuji vs. Sony fight in which three of the four people on the podcast think that Fuji being a camera company automatically means he should buy a Fuji over a Sony.
