Oh, Good show as always…
nice show as always
take care, Thierry
I love this show!
Great show once again. Perhaps some more tips from either Pete or RC on some wedding or event shooting.
RC is a great host, but I did see him at PhotoPlus a couple of years back, and I do not think the “I’m 5’11 statement” is entirely accurate
Great episode. The ONA bag looks really nice! How about tips about concert/event photography in daylight?
Great show again, thanks for all you guys do. I learn a lot from watching. I am in the market for a new camera bag it looks like a really nice one.
I loved episode 14. The photography tip around posing the female model into the sunlight was great. I look forward to your next episode. Please consider more shooting/natural lightning techniques in future episodes.
Great show, RC.
How about showing folks how to use the Spyder lens calibration kit. I’d like to calibrate some of my lenses to my D-800E. Thanks.
B.
Good Show. Nice explanation by Jerry.
RC, can you show us about those jells? thank you!
Ona bag looks great!
I’m not entering the contest just leaving a comment.
…I didn’t know you and Pete sometimes do wedding work. What are the chances of you guys doing a in-the-field episode?
Nice looking bag, that one. Will it take a D800 with battery grip and a 28-300 on it, I wonder..?
Good show guys! Would be glad to test out the bag too! Shooting at the conservatory at Longwood Gardens next week and it would be an interesting test.
Great show RC. The Brixton bag looks awesome. I would like to see your take on the different Nikon focus and AF modes in a TNT show.
Great show. Thanks.
Great episode!
Nice Bag. Can’t wait to hear your comments.
Enjoyed the subject lighting segment. I don’t know if you share comments with vendors, but I hate that camera bag manufacturers (with only one or two exceptions) line bags in black. Kata uses high contrast yellow which makes it so much easier to find the small, black items that are so common with camera equipment and accessories. I wonder if this might not be a good topic to discuss on a future show. If you have some “do it yourselfers” on staff who have solutions to the issue, that would be nice, too.
Great show. Ona bag looks nice.
Groovy babe!
Great show as always , Thanks for the tips
Great Show.
Love that travel tripod. and that Ona bag looks pretty sweet.
The ONA bag looks like it might just be the one I have been looking for! I like the Stand Bagger too.
Thanks for a great show.
Hey guys,
How about more in-depth episodes. Perhaps a single show on a single topic. Like the variety, but sometimes it would be nice to have more information.
great show guys, i always learn new things and my photography jumped forward thanks to you!
would love the bag for my NYC trip beginning of Feb!
Great show as always. Went to RC led seminar recently. Super instructor! ONA bag would be a nice addition!
Good show. Love the bag.
How about showing some images when you give the flash tips, maybe with/without the flash?
I would love to see a show on sports photography… great looking bag by the way
Would luv a better bag! But any prize would B cool.
I’m watching all of Jerry’s training vid’s now. I have a wedding coming up.
Would like tutoring on aperture settings for landscapes.
Martin
Good show… good looking bag
Love your program. I would like to see a program dedicated to the various light triggers available .
I like the ONA bag and the StandBagger is awesome. Gerry is amazing! Thanks for another great show.
Looks like a great bag. I’d love to win one. Enjoyed the episode, especially the tips on lighting. Please do a segment on your gel system.
Great show RC. Loved the segment on shooting in harsh sun.
As always, there are a few pearls or tips that we can learn from. Jerry’s tips on posing in harsh light situations was great.
RC Great show once again.
Awesome! Love ONA bags. Great Tips and tricks!
Awesome! Thanks for the tips and tricks!
The ONA bag looks great. I would love to win one.
Nice episode, I really liked the wedding tip.
Great show good hints on posing and the camera bag looks fantastic!
Nice episode.
Great show, very informative… can’t wait till the next one…
Episode 14: There always something to learn with each episode. Jerry’s tips on positioning and posing in harsh light was great. The Ona bag looks cool and not your typical camera bag that screams “steal me!:
Good show.
As always, a really great show. You all do well in explaining stuff, so the viewers can follow it. I’m from norway and follow this show every week, and learn some stuff too.
The Ona bag looks terrific and would be lovely to bring with me on my photo journeys.
As a wish, I would like you to talk about night photo. As we all know, there are numerous of settings you can use, and I wonder what your favourite setting are, and maybe some tips?
Ona Bag look good. What can you put in it.
Love the show, and love the music for the intro. I’d also like to see more Larry Becker.
That’s my dream bag! Looks perfect for both shooting and meetings. Too bad they don’t sell them here in Europe.
RC cool gear I hope I have a chance to get the book on lighting…..
Enjoyed the show – as always something interesting and useful to learn.
great to see pete back again-great show guyz!!
Thanks for the tip RC on what’s in your bag.
Thank you for all the tips and trips. The Ona bag looks really nice, will be curious to see how it works in the field.
The Ona bag looks great! It would be interesting to see what each of you guys would carry in it on different kinds of shoots.
Hi guys,
great show. I started working recently in my photography skills recently and i found out you podcast on Itunes. There was an instant click and now you are on my favourite list of podcasts.
Keep going guys…i’m eager for the next episode. That Ona bag is very cool, it does not seams you are carrying photo gear at all.
I would like to see some contest challenges to keep interest up in practicing photography.
Best Regards from Portugal
Filipe Louro
Loved Jerry’s tips today!
great show, always looking for small light suggestions….
Love the bag. And, would love to hear about your DIY jells.
Don’t know anything about ONA bags, but would be happy to test it for you!
I love bags too!!!
Great show. Could you show how to work with the Beauty Dish.
thanks.
Another great show. Jerry’s tips are awesome. He thinks about light and shadow in a different way and he’s able to explain it very well.
Could you spend some time talking about the purchase and use of Light meters?
Thanks.
Ed Levy
Always something usable…Thanks
love watching and learning more every time I watch.. also love the bag
Great show as always RC! Jerry was great! Love his Kelby Training classes … looking forward to more Jerry Ghionis
Nice looking Ona bag too!
good show. nice looking bag (;-))
Great show. As always very informative.
I love the tip if harsh outside light. Bag is something that would help me as I carry my gear randomly.
I like the brixton bag as I saw in Episode 14.
In Russia, on the Sakhalin(popular for the Americans place) we don’t have sucj an interesting designed bags or eve Manfrotto like lightstands.
Thanks for the tips. That Manfrotto lite stand looks like just what i need to buy, but I’d settle for a free prize. Especially the Jack reznicki dvds and the bag. alohadios amigos.
I JUST received the Nikon 400mm f2.8 from LensPro2Go to shoot the Pro Bowl. Thanks for the NAPP discount. Yet ANOTHER reason to be a NAPP member. Man, that thing is heavy. I’ll EARN my pay lugging that thing around back and forth on the sidelines.
Another cool episode, guys. I like the two bags that were shown! Can never have too many bags…
If possible could you make the episodes a little bit longer, the tips sometimes could use more information. Thanks
This show is not long enough! I enjoy them very much, and am always eager for the next one.
Thanks for the info. Love Ghionis’ s work.
Keep up the good work!
Great show guys…just love it.
Great show. The bag looks great. How about some tips about shooting presentation, seminars etc. with on-camera flash?
Great Show as allways RC. Have you ever tried or do you know anything about KAP?
That is Kite Aerial Photography. (Google It) Might make a kewl show
Thanks for the info. Love Ghionis’s photos!
Keep up the good work.
As always some great tips. I’d like to hear more about those home made gels. I’ve tried some other other techniques like using cellophane and all but usually the colour isn’t even and they get wrinkled and all and things just get messy when u need it most.
Will need to look into ONA Bags, but they look out of my price range
Great Show RG. Have you ever heard of KAP? Kite Areial Photography. People hook their cameras to a kite and remotely take pictures.
Might make a kewl show
How about an explanation of the two exposure HD in Nikons.
Your show is great.
Thanks
Thanks for the tips on using 2 flashes pointing to the ceiling for general lighting of groups. I just always assumed that would be ideal for a couple bounced umbrellas, but this makes it even simpler.
Great tips, tricks and inspiration as always!! Thanks RC for the great flash tip with two speed lights. Would really love that Ona bag looks awesome for my new Nikon D600!!
Great show! Keep up the great work guys. The Ona bag looks awesome!
Really nice tips about taking pictures of people during harsh sunlight. This is one of those tricks that I think will come handy soon.
Can you guys please do a show different kinds of filters, especially Grad ND and CPL? Since there are different CPL filter at very different price ranges it’s really hard to decide which one to buy. Moreover is there anyway to emulate the effect of CPL filter?
Thanks a lot
The Ona Bag looks amazing! Look forward to seeing you guys do a review. Great tips as always, love the posing tip. Would like to see more. Oh, and show the DIY gel trick again.
Thanks guys!!
Good show as always…The bag looks great…it doesn’t even look like a camera bag..which is nice
RC is a stud!
Always fun watching you RC. You are a very talented guy. Great work getting Jerry on Kelby as well. Some of my favorite classes at Kelby Training for sure!
Nice Brixton bag, I’m in.
Thanks,
Chuck Sider
Greatly appreciated Ghionis guides for shooting couples in harsh sunlight. Big challenge here in Arizona. Always values help in shooting groups with strobes. Thanks guys.
Great show RC. Brixton bag looks stylish without screaming CAMERA EQUIPMENT.
Great show! How about some photo examples with the flash set up. The Ona bag looks cool!
Look forward to each episode RC. Love it, please keep up the good work.
I really like Jerry’s great tips on how to direct and shoot portraits.
I really liked Jerry’s recommendation on posing in stronger directional sun light. The ONA bag seems nice. I looked some time ago into their lineup and they needed a more compact bag like this one. I came here from the youtube video
Love the show guys!
That is one cool looking bag!
RC I love your HDR work. I am currently reading your book. Loving it so far.
Ona Bag looks wonderful. I just checked out their website. They really have some nice bags. I think a Ona bag will be on my Christmas list.
This is my first episode buy I would love to see the gel information and how to get great water reflections.
Make me a winner PLEASE
No bag please I have a ThinkTank
Great show, RC! The Ona bag looks terrific! It would be an upgrade to my old LowePro Orion II bag that is a big fanny pack.
Need a bag…that one looks like a winner…and thanks again for all the great tips…the flash segment was good for me…..
Good show but, what happened to the sunlight in Jerrys’ tip? Would one have to remove lenses from cameras with battery grips to still appear stealthy with the camera bag?
Nice show!
Gotta re-watch Jerry’s classes! For sure!
Up for the books, and the long bag contest
long time watcher, first time comment. Need a good inexpensive carry everywhere bag, so send me the bag, I will review it for you.
Thanks
Christopher
As always, something useful. I’m looking for something to pack with a lightweight kit, I’d seen the Standbagger in Light It but it’d slipped my mind. After seeing RC in action, it may be perfect for my needs.
Great looking bag – Thanks for the tips!
I have been looking at these bags for a while. It looks great!
Great episode as well.
Question:
When light painting like in last episode. What is the best practice for White Balance?
Good show. The Ona bag looks nice. Sure would like to win that!
Its a neat looking bag, but for the amount of $ they are asking can you tell us what features commands the price? Since it is of flap design, how secure is it in a crowd.
Great show…beautiful bag!!
thanks, this was really good. That Ona bag looks great, would love to have it.
Great show RC. Always love to see tips for weddings.
Great show, I am going to have to go and check out Jerry’s class on Kelbytraining. Thanks for showing what all can fit in that bag.
Hi Guys,
Another great show. In a future episode would it be possible to show some tips on how to get the best results when shooting the night sky / stars / the Milky Way etc.
Many Thanks
Great show!
I have a huge library of diapositives from my film days that I would like to make digital images of; using my D7000. Tips or tricks or ideas on the setup etc would be great in a future show.
Another great show.
I’m looking for a new camera. I’m using a Nikon D80, but I’m not sure what to get to replace it and still be able to use all my DX lenses. any suggestions.
Thanks
Great show, great bag. Hey how about a show focusing (pun intended) on interiors. From which wide angle and why to flash uses and finishing with photoshop using perspective control and stiching photos together for a real wide angle look.
Thanks much
Interior photography
Great show as always!
another good show — bag looks nice
The ONA looks nice. Thanks for another great show RC! Would love to see some tips on using old glass on new bodies.
Great show. I like the Ona bag. Looks good! Thanks RC for the show. You always have great ideas, new gear, and great guests. Always helpful!!!
Love the Show!!! Ona Bag looks great!!!!
Another good show! Seems to be getting better all the time.
Nice show, but I think you could explore the subjects a bit more thoroughly, for example, the section with Pete – explaining more about comparing styles and showing photo examples.
Great show! Would appreciate tips on using the camera for copying slides and negatives; as well as macro photography..
I want that bag!!!! Great show. Would also like to see a video of RC and Pete working an actual wedding.
Love the Oma back
Thanks guys. Please talk about the DIY gels
Great show as always. I’m curious if there are any tips for keeping up with (managing) gear while doing all-day type event (like grand prix races, large concerts, street events, etc.). Or instead of managing lots of gear, tips for how to minimize your gear for such an event.
Great show guys! Ona bag looks amazing! If you travel just with this bag, what you´d put into?
Great show. Ona bag look’s great and I am looking for a new bag of that size.
I absolutely loved learning how to shoot in direct light. I would just avoid it all together i can’t wait to try out some new ideas i just learned. Plus that is a really sweet bag!
Cassie
I like your show and I like that bag. Your stand bagger looks like a good find too.
This was an amazing show! I think it would be great to see more about studio lighting, would that be something you are up to?
By the way, I wanna be the first ONA bag owner in Barcelona. This is totally my style: functional and great design! Love it!
Thanks for another great show. I would love to see some tips on other camera formats like the micro 4/3′s.
Marc
Great show as always, loved the tips for flash in large groups, could have used that last weekend, but at least now I will be ready for the next event. I would love some tips on using grids and gels for speedlights. The Ona Bag looks great, I really like that it doesn’t seem like a camera bag. Also Bill’s site GREAT IMAGES, thank you for sharing that. The show is awesome and gets better with every episode
Great show once again.
Awesome! Love Ona
great show,
Great show! You need Dixie Dixon to do a Kelby Training Video, as well as some more videos from Lindsay Alder.
I like the Tenba messenger bags so it will be interesting to see your thoughts on this Ona bag. I like the looks v the Tenba, but the Tenba has a lot of great features.
Great show.
I suggested that you do more on speedlight stuff and you did!
Great show as always. You must have listened to my recent suggestion to do more with speedlights.
Thanks RC
Great show as usual.
RC, you must have read my request to do more with speedlights. Thanks!
Another great episode and I will be ordering a Grab ‘n Go bag and put it to use at a few events I have coming up. I’d love to win that Ona Brixton for when I’m strolling the streets.
Nice bag,
How about a show on interiors and architectural photography
Great show as always!
Great show, great bag !
Love the posing tips!
I can’t get enough of this show, seem like if I’m looking for tip, tool or fix for a particular situation you have it on the show. Keep up the good work.
Great show. Both bags look interesting.
You guys always have great ideas and tips for us. You get my brain churning. RC, I’ve used your tip about mounting a flash on the end of a monopod, and I’ve shot groups as you suggest. It’s usually a convention (no, we won’t need a group shot) type group. Typically it the big cheese that wants a photo with his/her team and didn’t think the tell the meeting planner.
Oh, and I share your lust for a great camera bag. (hint, hint…) Thanks, guys!
Great show guys. That ONA bag looks awesome!
More tips on Speedlights and off camera flash would be great!
Love the show. Please make it twice as long in the future. We’re eager to learn more, RC.
I love Tips and Tricks. I don’t know how you do it, but those little tips and tricks you provide, often put the puzzle pieces in place so that I understand the bigger picture of a particular topic. You guys are all absolutely amazing! Your gift of teaching and sharing information is truly inspirational! Keep up the great work!
This episode was timely. I am in the process of creating a couple different grab-and-go bags for various types of outings (events, hiking, light-painting…).
Ona bag looks like it has potential. Looking forward to the 30 day follow-up… and give-away.
Love the posing tips. I have my 2nd wedding to shoot in March & could use all the tips I can get. I will be joining the Kelby training site for his lessons.
Thanks for the great web site.
Could use that new Ona bag.
Great tips as always.
Thanks, Harjinder
Great show. How about a little on analog aka film photography? Great Bag also. Would love to get it!!
Another good show. I got a laugh from the Ghionis clip reference to DTown !
The bag looks pretty interesting and useful. I’ll be waiting to see how your trial goes. And, I’d be happy to end up with it and try it for myself.
I’m going to repeat a request that I made for the last show: what’s the source of the intro/exit music ? I didn’t see any reference for it, and I can’t quite place it, and I find it interesting.
Thanks again, and keep up the good work.
Really good show! Gives nice tricks, really appreciate!
Thanks
Great shows! Any tips on photography for a point-and-shoot camera?
I use so many of the tips I have learned from this show and NAPP that I have stopped counting. I am older and I believe you can teach an old dog new tricks. Keep up the good work and thank you for all your help.
Great Job!!!
I love Jerry’s explanations on different kind of lighting. Interesting to watch him shoot and adjust on the fly, as the sun hides behind the clouds.
Would like to see Jerry or RC do an episode on working with light meters using a Speedlights.
Thanks for the education guys.
Nice show !!! And very nice bag !!
Hello from Switzerland : it’s a pleasure to see you each time. Keep going.
Great show. Can’t wait to see more camera bag reviews.
great show again. i personally think it would be kind of cool to see a show where some photos that didnt make the cut. always see the photos that photographers feel are the better work how about the oposite
Love the show, bag looks cool and nice to have on your vaccation, doesn’t look like a camerabag which is good. An idea for the show is a “How to” with of camera flash – camera settings, speedlight settings, IR, cabel, radio etc.
Great tutorial!
And the Ona bag looks great
Great show guys and the bag looks really nice
Great show! The bag looks super. Liked the short on posing. Mahalo!
great show thanks
ona bag looks nice
Very nice RC! I really enjoy all the tips and gear reviews.
Great show RC. I’d like to see a tip from Moose on photographing the migrating birds of Spring. Where to find them etc.
Great show RC! The bag is awesome. It does not look like a typical camera bag, yet it has great form and function.
Hi
I like the show, it gives nices quick tips to use.
and would love the bag, I still seeking for a nice small back for city trips
Thank you Pete Ghonis for some excellent tips. Keep them coming.
Great looking bag! I’d love to win that!
love the shows !!
Did I mention I have never one anything??
Love your show, it is a bit of a tease, it would be nice if it were longer
ONA bag- very beautiful
Love the show, as always. Thanks!
Love the Tips and use the Tricks. Want the Onabag.
Great show I like the great tips. On Flash
Great show, keep up the good work.
Great show. Love the Ona bag.
Thanks for the reminder about gelling the flash. Probably a good time for more on that topic.
Great show. Love the tip from Gerry. Looking forward to next episode
Great episode. Love the bag. Great tip from Gerry. Looking forward to next episode.
Great show. Could you do some tips on pet photography?
Ona bag looks amazing. I must not be alone in this. I think this is the most comments I have seen for this show.
Another great show. Always learn something new from you.
Great prize! Thanks
We are all fortunate to have generous sponsors such as Brixton. Thanks guys!
More great content. Thank you.
Also, could you and Pete talk more in another show about how you do weddings…. gear, ways of shooting, etc. OR do you already have a site that we can go to?
Love the show as always. Would be good to see the result of RC’s flash fill tip in a real before and after photo so we can see what level of difference it makes.
Thanks for all of the tips; would like a recap on the gels though.
The ONA bag looks ideal for travel and days out. Looks like a good theft deterrent not looking like a camera bag!
Cool Bag
That ONA is one great looking and stylish bag and looks like it could hold most of my photography gear, unlike my current bag.
I’d like to see information about taking photos in studio and also a bit more about what kind of bags do professionals use in which conditions.
Another great show RC. Would love to hear about your home made gel attachment system.
Great tips from Jerry Ghionis!
Great show and great tips from Jerry Ghionis!
First time visiting this site and this was a great episode. Going to look through more right now. The bag would be awesome! I like that it seems more like a regular messenger bag and not a camera bag-that would be a great win. Off to check out more videos.
Great show as always! For a show idea how about something around matching white balance between speed lights and other indoor lighting sources. All my holiday indoor photos with a flash had that awkward dual white balance thing going on and I’d like to see several options/ideas you guys have to fix it.
Oh, and awesome camera bag!
I’d be delighted to win an ONA Brixton bag.
Suggestion: Fix the echo when someone is talking off to the side of RC. Two examples: Pete Collins in episode 14 and Matt K in a previous episode.
Unwatchable choppy video. Sponsors should demand better video.
WOW, All I Can Say
Great show the tips have helped a lot possibly add more demos.
Great show, need some help finding out the differences in some of the 3rd party flashes and how TTL is handled when the flash is remotely triggered using a radio trigger vs line of sight CLS triggered. It seems like some of the popular TTL capable radio triggers cannot transmiit TTL info to these 3rd party flash units that are TTL capable rendering the flash just another slave flash. Is this the case? If so does it make sense to purchase a TTL flash instead of a inexpensive manual flash? Also when using an off camera flash and an umbrella is it necessary for the flash’s sensors to be facing in the direction of the subject instead of into the umbrella or does it not matter?
Thanks.
I would love a brief lesson on fill flash.
Great tips as always. That bag would look great in my collection! Thanks!
Very insightful. Everything was REALLLLY helpful. The posing segment I LOVED! Also with having only one flash in my arsenal currently I found that super helpful also.
What a coincidence my bag broke and I’ve been searching for about 2 weeks now for a replacement bag and have been really intreguied by the canvas messenger type bags. With just my luck I did your giving one away! I was planning on buying a knock off since I don’t have the money lol but I’ll hold off and see if I could with this one!
P.S. maybe a tip about D.O.F. (depth of field) and street photography. How to build the courage to shoot right in front of a stranger’s face?
Thanks again and keep up the great videos RC!!
great show guys, i always learn new things
Hi guys! I’m just start to packing my camera equipment and want to go for a shooting in beautifull Polish winter weather but also freaking cold. Have to shoot some street photos to my university photography class and I always put all my stuff in a pockets of my jacket. It’s easier to pull it out then from a backpack but this ONA bag looks soooo perfect, and suitable for me. Think I need to look out for one
great show!!
I need a new bag.
As always another great show. We’re having some terrible weather here in the Uk (snow and floods), so any chance of some bad weather shooting tips.
Keep up the good work.
Love the ONA Brixton bag, woul be a great prize.
Could we perhaps also see some tips on speedlights n future episodes please ?
Cheers,
Phil.
Good show, I was interested in the tripod light kit bag, as a tip I use a light kit bag for my normal tripod bag (Goose by Nalpak it was designed for a video light system) it provides big pockets for all kinds of accessories, I keep my vest rolled up in one of the pockets, the only draw back is that the material is a little lighter than a tripod bag, so I wrap the ball head in a towel , I would not check it though.
Ona Brixton bag looks fantastic.
Great show this week
Great show, love the bag. I have been needing/wanting an ONA for quite a while now.
Great looking Ona bag! I love camera bags that don’t look like camera bags, they just look good.
One can never have too many camera bags…..can’t wait to hear the review!!
Thanks!
RC, I am realy enjoying the tips Jerry Ghionis is giving. Keep them coming.
Great show.
Great show, I always look forward to the next episode. The Ona bag looks like a perfect size for a flash and a couple of extra lenses.
Thank you including the tips on shooting in the direct sunlight – great solution, indeed!
I would like to see how the bag you showed at the end of the episode would handle a various assortment of gear. I like to carry 5 lenses and need a more compact method of having them available when I need them (24-120mm, 70-300mm, 50mm, 85mm & 28mm). Plus the other stuff!
How will this bag handle it all, feel when carried and perform when accessing the gear?
Thanks for the great episode!
Cool Show RC. The ONA bag looks great for street and on the go Photogs.
good info all around.LOVE to see the review on the bag.could you do something on shooting car shows outside and setting flash?
Great show
I woud like to see more tips in using speedlights
I just orders my sb700
Great show guys. I’m starting to watch you more and more.
I love the lighting tips for the group shots. I’m gonna have to try that out next time.
Great show. Would love to see your DYI flash filter tips again, RC.
I wanna win…
The Ona bag looks amazing.
I liked RC’s tip for taking group photos and that great lighting bag he had. Thanks so much for presenting stuff like this.
Another excellent episode. The Ona bag looks fantastic and I’m looking forward to the 30 review, wonderful idea.
Great Show, R.C.
Long time viewer going back to original DTown for Nikon shooters. I would love a detailed discussion of event photography by either you or Pete emphasizing the type of gear you use and how you get the shots that the client wants.
Love That show Man.. Good Episode!
Sexy bag
Would love to see some more travel photography tips especially when traveling with a family.
Great show! I really like the idea of showing the product and revisiting it in 30 days.
I really love the variety of information shared on this site especially the tips on lighting. RC, I am interested in the information about the gels you have on your flash and also would like to know what mount you are using on your monopod to attach the flash. Thanks!
I too like this show with all the great tips and tricks for photography. It would be great to be the lucky winner of this very nice looking camera bag.
There are so many camera bags out there and I own a number of them. How about focusing a segment on the strengths and weakness of different types of bags.
Any advice on longest exposure times before causing hame to gear or mem. card. I am doing alot of dusk/night shots
Loved the video! SOOO insightful!!! Maybe in the next video you can give tips about D.O.F. (depth of field) and tips of to do street photography. Like how to get that courage to shoot in front of some stranger’s face or if there’s a technique to it?
AND!! i’ve been looking for a canvas type bag for about a month now! Would love to win one! If not.. then my next lens can hold off the next couple of months lol.
Keep up the good work RC!!
episode 14
You are great I never miss your show even though
I am in sweden . I love to have the bag .
as we say in sweden TACK!!
Loving the show guys – keep up the great work! It’d be great to see some more films of you all out shooting in the field so we can see your tips in action.
Great show guys.
When you’re giving out tips and tricks, it would be great if you could show a couple of example shots rather than just talking about it – especially when it comes to lighting techniques.
Keep up the good work.
I want that bag!
Hi RC. RC here….lol. Don’t quite agree on the position of your flashes for shooting more than 3 people at a time. An umbrella would have done the job better than point the flash at the back of a huge ceiling. Plus the coverage would have been enough to cover an even bigger group. If you have to carry the lighting equipment that you showed, why not include one more item, the umbrella (or two). Like your show. Watching every chance I get.
The bag looks perfect for my M43 kit. Thanks again for a great show with good content.
UNO bag looks quite nice – great episode
Great show and the Ona bag looks nice.
Great show…nice looking bag.
Great show as usual and what a nice prize!
Thanks guys for all the hard work. It is very appreciated.
Enjoy the show every week.
Excellent as always…
Getting tips approaches to harsh sun really gets me thinking of other creative approaches, Thanks
Hi RC, like your show Thank you for all you do to help us become better photographers.
Love the show! I would love to see tips on special effects, like some of those trick photography things also would like see photo manipulation.
Thanks-
Really like the show. Found it while searching for D-Town TV. I assume this replaced D-Town TV?
Hey Guys,
The ONA bag looks really nice! I sure could use it! I’m would like to see more tips and trick on camera settings, use of filters, and operational techniques.
Thanks,
Dennis
I’ll say straight – I want this awesome Bag! Please
love the show, thanks!
I always wanted an ONA bag!!
Nice looking bag, just looks like a normal holdall rather than something with expensive gear in. I like that.
Would love to test out the camera bag, also.
Well I just got a 650d at Christmas, I signed up for the Creative Cloud, I signed up for Kelby Training and NAPP so really to complete the set an ONA bag would do just the trick
Seriously though enjoying the shows guys you keep this Scotsman smiling with every watch.
Another great show.
How about something on shooting for stock photography?
Love the format of this show. I’d be interested in how RC made the flash gels. Also interested in any type of portrait wedding tips.
Hi RC,
Thanks for another great show and I enjoyed the tips on the tripod and flash, that is a great idea, in fact just tied it out at home here worked great. Ideas I have one digital storage what to do with the TB of photo’s we are collecting. How to store them all and where to put them. Have a think..
Love the bag as well. I had one years ago a nice fashion statement..
Regards,
RichG
I just really want the freaking bag! Thanks!
The ONA bag looks pretty cool and sturdy too! Loved Jerry Gihonis’ quick tip on posing and lighting! It’s amazing how quickly some people can get a powerful point across!
thanks!!!
I want one of those ONA bags they look like they are really well made. Great show as always!
There has been a lot of buzz about the Ona Bags and the Brixton. It will be very interesting to see how you like it after 30 days……. Great show!
This show is one of my weekly “keep up to date” must watch videos! I would love to see more on off camera flash, specifically what are some of the best triggers to use for the Canon system. Thanks guys! Looking forward to winning the bag!
Only just came across the show and now I’m gonna have to watch all of the episodes!
The bag is probably the best looking camera bag I’ve seen.
Thanks!
Hello there,
really nice shows, thanks for the great tips. I would like to see some tips on shooting products, best equipment, lightning and etc.
Thanks,
Ilian
awesome show!! thank you so much kelby tv!
Great and insightful show! Never knew about ona bags! Thanks for the new info! Looks like a perfect fit for a walk around NYC with my fm2, a couple lenses and loads of film! Been looking for something smaller and less conspicuous than the sling bag and backpack I already tote around! Definitely will consider Ona products!
Another great show, RC!
I love how the show developed since it’s beginnings. Especially since there’s some (little) interaction between you and your studio guest.
btw. that ona bag looks very cool. It looks like a bag I’d like to own…
I’m very excited to hear about your experience with it.
Hey guys, your show is just great! Back here in Germany I really miss good stuff like this! But RC, I would have loved to see an example when you told us about the lighting with two speedlights for small groups in a room. Like one or two pictures would have been great so see what it looks like when you actually do it.
Uh, the bag looks amazing! I’m looking for a new bag, perhaps that one is goin to be it
Keep up the great work and thank you!
Bye from Northern Germany! Stefan
As always RC love the show, love the tips and thanks for putting one more thing (ONA camera bag) on my wish list. happy shooting
Great tips. Love Jerry Ghionis, saw him in a Sandy Puc workshop. That bag looks great, I’d love to win it, I need a new bag for on the go shoots.
Maybe you could do a show on the different types of bags and your fav’s.
I would love to win the Ona Bag. What a great looking camera bag. I have some Fossil bags for my laptop and tablet that look like that. The rest of the show was awesome also.
Great show, finally got caught up on the episodes!
Another homerun, nice.
RC, great show as usual. The ONA bag looks great- does not scream I have expensive gear. Would love this bag for my trip to Oregon in April. Could you guys do a show on product lighting with speed lights? That would be awesome.
Thanks again
Love the new show. Keep up the great work!
I like the look of the bag. Good tips as ever. Thanks RC
Great show, as ever, guys.
Two weeks the zipper on my Lowepro backpack bag broke. It’s being held together by a bungee cord until I get a new bag.
Love the show and all that you guys offer.
Thanks
Great tips as always. I have to say RC smelling the bag was funny. He better do an update smell test after 30 days!
Great show. Keep the tips coming on using flashes. The bag looks great.
That theme music just gets creepier every time I hear it.
The Ona bay looks great. Does if have a pocket for a iPad etc.
That ONA bag would be great with my u4/3 system.
Please show more camera bags. Plus more Canon lighting.
Great show as always. What is that music you play during the breaks?
I would love to hear more about indoor event photography like banquets, charity auctions, etc.
Thanks
Love the amount of information you guys give. The bag was too good to pass the chance to have it
Thanks for everything.
Thank you Kelbytv .. I learned so much from guys ..
great show
I’d love to win that ticket for photoshop world! That way I would have a chace to go and see you guys, it would be the greatest thing to happen to me for 2013!
Nice Camera bag … Thanks.
Nice show. Great tips.
Thanks for very informative show. Would like to see more DIY things.
First of all, great episode.
(And this is a good reason to give me the prize, if you knew my wife you’d agree).
Second: cool, cool, WAY coooool bag. The kind of bag my wife would stop yelling at me whenever I bring photo equipment around with.
Third: piece of advice (I’ve already given that): how about some tips on how to prepare your bag (lenses, etc) for different events?
Great show love the bag pick me pick me.
I have been looking for a new bag for a couple months. I can’t wait to see how this one works out for you. It looks like it is solid and I imagine, from the way you reacted, that it does smell good – new bag smell. . . mmmmmm.
I will be going back to find your DIY gel show.
Thank you for all that you do.
Another great episode! Can Jerry Ghionis take a bad photo??? He’s amazing!
Thanks, very informative.
Thx RC for the greate Show,
Could you guy mybe talk about filters (ND, UV…) mybe some Adapters for lenses. 52mm to 77mm
Thanks again
Great show, i love to watch Your tips, trick and inspirations
Ane this bag is one of a kind.
Best regards,
Greg
Great show guys, would you do an episode about working with gels (both for color correction and special effects)?
Thank you very much for all the information you guys put out
Great tips as always,RC. Could you include a picture while describing effect of two indirect bounce flashes. I think it would really show how good a tip you had, Thanks!
Great show – as always thanks for all the great tips. I love the The Ona bag – it would look better with my gear in it!
Hey RC. Thanks for showing the bag from StandBagger. That looks like what I need for my lighting gear instead of the current multiple bags I have to use.
Jerry’s tip was one of the most well explained TNT tips to-date. Awesome! Thanks.
Hey Guys,
Why not unroll the Standbagger light stand bag and show its layout? We need more close-ups in the show. You can shoot CUs later and add them in post if it’s too difficult to do it “live.”
Thanks!
John
Great ideas on your show as usual. One of my favorite go -to sites.
What make was the mono-pod? It looks like the Brixton bag would be great for travel, since it looks more like luggage than camera equipment.
Great tips and really appreciate the wealth of information that Kelbytraining does for free for all of us. Thanks.
Nice job as usual RC!
Hey guys great show. LOVE the ONA bag! Would totally put my Nikon D7000 and travel lens in there.
Great show as usual, keep up the good work!
great lighting tips
Another great show, guys. Love Gerry and his style of wedding shooting. Thanks for all you do.
Rich
Thanks for reminding me about Standbagger. Had seen them a while back will take a second look and probably order one.
That would make a great prize
You guys rock! Sure could use that ONA bag.
Also have a question about remote camera focusing with Pocket Wizards & a DIY cable. Do you have to have brand specific to enable auto focus on a D700?
Great show RC. Look forward to your review of the Ona bag.
Hi there,
Along the last two years I’ve being following your show. It is a tremendous source of leads to me and I can state it gave me a boost to extend my knowledge. Everyone ask me if I ever took a photography course, and always refer to this website as my knowledge source. Keep on the good work.
I’m looking to see more on the things to improve the image from the artistic point of view and not always the technical part.
I liked the tip about having her breath through her mouth, to achieve fuller lips.
Thanks for the wonderful tips! Can’t wait to see how the Brixton holds up. Would love to have one myself! Put it through the wringers RC and show us how durable it is!
I too would like to see more on the light stand bag, its layout and contents – the Manfrotto stands in particular!
Thanks so much,
Thom
PS: I’m going to go looking for the DIY gel show…
Great show. Would love to test the Ona bag!
RC:
Beautiful bag. These things will fly off the shelf after the drawing ends.
Dave
Nice bag, would love to win.
I think RC is the best teacher, RC’s explanations are so clear and easy to follow.
Thanks for great tips. Would there be any episode focused on concert photography?
I am a noob photographer that is suffering from “upgrade-itis”, a disease wherein someone continually upgrades his gear and is usually accompanied by an angry spouse. In my case, it is about my photography gear. With that being said, this ONA bag would be of much help to me.
I love your show!
Thats a grate show.
i’ve started watching it 2 days ago and i cant wait for more episodes i have so much to learn about photography and ways to photograph.
Nice program and bag
Love TNT as always great show. ONA bag looks nice. I’m in the market for a bag & it looks like a solid choice. Great tips. Gonna start using my monopod more often for other than my camera. I get reminded to think outside the box when I watch Kelby Media. Thanks.
Great show and I really agree with Pete on finding a complimentary 2nd shooter. The bag looks like the messenger style I would love to carry & it doesn’t look like a camera bag !! Wil be glad to wait 30 days.
Wow – I looked at the bag on line. Looks really awesome. Would love to win it!
How about a discussion on back button focus?
Another great episode, guys! Thanks
Great show and ona looks like a great bag
This episode was a great episode, I really enjoyed the posing section with the bright sun light. I really did enjoy the look of that ONA bag. I shoot with a small shoulder bag now and love the look of this one as well it seems it would store more than my current bag. Really could use one of those!
Love the show, I download episodes and watch while running on the treadmill. Great way to pass the time!
i especially liked advice on how to deal with harsh light. more posing advice please. hints on what to watch out for in lighting situations.
I want to thank you for your tips & tricks episodes! As I am on the brink of going from enthusiast to professional these tips are so valuable to me…..The Ona bags are beautiful! I have been on their websites.. with
hopes that I will be able to afford them one day!!!! So make my dream come true and pick me!!!! I would be forever grateful!
I love the bag – pick me!
I want that bag!
Great episode. Your shows are always so helpful in unexpected ways. Would love to have one of those bags.
Good show – I look forward to more.
Oh yea, need this ONA bag!!!
Great segment! Send me the bag!
BTW…do they make the bag in a “girly” color?? Love it.
Nice show. Could use a new bag too!
Another great T&T. And let me assure you that the Ona Bag would look very good carrying my gear to my next shoot. So feel free to pick me. 8^)
You guys rock! Send me the bag!
Ona Bag looks awesome, was going for a Think Tank Retrospective but now have a choice! Thanks.
Great show guys. Thanks!
I am looking for a good bag that is nice for travel and easy to use. I love the colour!
Have to check out that Stand-bagger. I’m trying to assemble the gear for a 2 speedlight shoot (the minimalist studio). What’s your best suggestion for a basic background or two that could work in relatively small space?
I’d love the Greenberg/Reznicki DVD set.
Cool show, cool bag. Thanks.
Another great episode and the bag looks awesome. Keep up the good work and I’ll keep watching.
Thats one great looking bag
I hope I win, great bag. The show was awesome.
Bag looks great! Would be great to have it.
The bag looks very cool.
Always enjoy Jerry G’s tips here and in the PPA mag.
Best,
Michael
Great show, again. I liked the tips about shooting portraits in hard light. A great tip to have in your quiver when you have to make something cool happen in bad light. Keep ‘em coming.
This is the second episode that I have seen so far and the shows are absolutely amazing. I am learning a lot. I liked what Jerry had to say about shooting in sunlight. Also, nice bag!
Great Show… Now I have even more interesting content to keep up with! When will I have time to shoot??
Great show! Now I have even more interesting content to keep up with… when will I have time to shoot??!!
Great Show!
OMG!!! I had to scrolled down so much in order to leave a comment. OMG!!!!!!
I just like to tell you guys how much I appreciate your episodes. I lean so much.
I have the KelbyTraining membership and I can tell you, you guys are by far the best out there>
Keep it up!!!
Ruben
Great episode as usual! Really liked the Ona Bag…I have been looking for a good messenger style camera bag so I’ll be very interested in your review. Thanks!
Photo Bag?….Why yes please. And thank you.
I want one!
Nice show! Love the bag!
Great show as always.
Cool episode!
I like to hear about how you work and do things with all of the tips that you give.
If I could request something its more of the behinds the scenes in your work, and see you or someone else working “in the field”. Also seeing examples in picture results of the tips, to see how the tips impact the images you get from the tip.
Another thing that I would like to see more is about lighting, for both people and products.
And maybe something for the mirrorless cameras?
Thanks for the show!
awesome episode
You guys rock and I’d love the bag!
Hey, RC… good job as usual. I always get something out of your “tips and tricks” (mostly on technique) and I’ve been doing photography for over 40 years.
I’d love to see an episode (even a series?) on street photography techniques. That’s probably farthest removed from my photo comfort zone.
Keep up the good work, and thanks!
Thanks for all the tips and advice priceless!
Really nice Ona bag! I just bought a D600 and am looking for a nice, cozy home for it =)
Nice Ona bag! I just bought a D600 and am looking for a nice, cozy home for it =)
(sorry if this comment posts twice)
Nice show.
Gotta love the ability to subscribe to iTunes and never missing an episode. Thanks for another great episode (although i did love the original D Town series on Nikon gear only – Although I might be a little bias
– Cheers, Rob.
Love what you are doing with the ONA bag. I’d love to see what you think of it after a month.
Great episode. Really like Jerry’s tip on how to use sunlight rather than avoid it. RC – I think you covered all of the senses by actually smelling the bag – terrific! Would like to maybe see some examples of RC’s and Pete’s complimentary wedding shots. Thanks guys!
Gotta love that bag!
Great show. Love the fantastic looking camera bag!
I like your tips on using flash
Great show as always, very useful!
Lighting macro shots would be a tip I would like to be covered. Keep up the great show.
Great tips never thought about a second shooter having a different style. I would love to have that bag it’s very stylish!
Great lighting tip for couples.
Loved the episode. Just starting to work with flash and group photos so was intrigued by tips. I like the look of the Ona bag. It does not look like a traditional photo bag and that is a plus, especially when traveling. The fact that it has buckles and clips is also a plus. I think someone mentioned it in the comments earlier but would like to see a show on one topic, maybe with different perspectives from different photographers. Like Pete commented on liking to shoot weddings from a slight distance and RC likes to be up close. Good show as always. Thanks
Wondering what kind of mount you’re using to attach the flash to the stand/pod? Handy to switch it out!
Great tips RC. Now where is that darn Bag?
would like to see some tips on using just the on camera flash.
This is an awesome Camera bag. I can see my use for it already. I like these shows very much. I think you guys are doing a great job. I have to say that I learn a lots from you guys already. I’d love to get more about, light metering. Thanks.
Great show! I really like the tips on the second shooter idea! Bag looks nice!
Great show RC. Really like the lighting tips.
Thanks
Awesome show every week. Do you ever spend much time talking micro 4/3?
I love catching up on missing episodes. Great camera bag.
Awesome Show as usual. Thank you for all the great info every week.
Thank you for explaining the settings on the flash. I purchased one (not like the one featured here but it still helped) on ebay and didnt get a manual so i was pretty clueless as to what all the numbers were.
I always learn so much, and the Ona bag looks great. I would like basic steps on using variable neutral density filters–setting stops, focusing, manual exposure(?)–step-by-step. Thanks.
Great looking bag and it does not look like a camera bag. That’s a plus
Great show!!!!!!!!!!! just started recently found this website. Thanks
Great episode. Really like the lighting tips. I really like the tips on the second shooter idea! Thank you for all the great info every week. the Ona bag looks great. Thanks.
Education is a never ending process and your site is where i get them. Cool Ona bag, need to have one please.
Awesome show, always great advice!
Another great show professionally produced and presented, and yet all the segments are easy to understand. I look forward each week to a new episode.
Great tips, enjoy your courses too. I couldn’t find Bill’s site though. Bag looks great!
I like the tips you guys have. I never knew that men are less tolerant of sunlight than women. And once that is obvious, everything just followed. Perfect way for me to learn.
While I know this is the photography area, I think it would be really cool to have some tips and tricks about HDSLR videos, which can perhaps live in another area of the site.
That is one of the best looking bags I know of and is something I’ve been oohing and aahing over for a little while now. But of course, like most good things in life, I cannot afford it. So, it would be really nice if I got lucky and won it.
I’m new in flash photography,I would like to know about gels especially about the difference of full,half and quarter CTO,how do they work.thanks=) The bag definitely looks cool.
Lovely looking bag. I am interested in learning more about shooting kids and animals.
thanks!
Love to have that Ona bag.
Tip I’d like to see covered – or hint on what to do. I recently shot at a roller derby girl event. It was in a warehouse that had what appeared to be fluorescent lights. So I set my camera to fluorescent WB and put a green gel on my flash. Nope. Tried the other fluorescent WB settings. NADA. Finally took the gel off and went with Auto WB. So, how do you pick a WB in these situations? Next time I’ll bring my Expo Disk, but there has to be an easier way.
Great topics in your tips & tricks episodes. Learnt a lot frommel them and still do.
Great bag also.
Kind regards.
Eric
Well I definitely had a aha moment when the solution for the pictures taken in the bright sun. Always trying to find a shady spot so client would not squint this is such a simple solution I am a little embarassed I didn’t think of it sooner. I am just starting out and can use all of your tips & tricks. My photos are definitely a product of Kelby Taining!!
As for the new Ona Camera Bag. Please Please pick me:)
RC, keep up the good work. Good tips from Jerry. Have to get out & shoot.
Love the Ona Brixton bag. I need something a litttle larger than I have. The Brixton looks like a winner.
Love watching the tips and tricks! I really like the look of the ONA bag. It shows as a higher end style bag. I hope in version 2.0, they either put a pleat on the zippered pocket or a full expansion zipper. I always end up carrying something bulky and the extra space would be great.
Great tips about second shooters for weddings. Wouldn’t have immediately thought to look for someone who shoots a different style to mine, to compliment the wedding album! Keep it up guys this show rocks.
Thanks for the tip on group lighting.
I could really use a new bag for a month long trip on Japan in April. Right now my using a modified Canon backpack , it’s nice but not user friendly when trying to swap gear quickly.
How about a cross over episode with shooting on PTNT and retouching on PSU TV?
Great Show! And that bag is now on my must haves!
Jannette
Great Show. And I love the bag. It’s now on my list of must haves
Jannette
Guys,
You are doing an awesome job with the new show. I like the tips the help solve a problem like Jerry Ghionis’ tip in this episode. I also enjoy the one on one interviews. You are all so down to earth. Tae care.
Jose
The Brixton bag looks interesting. I wonder how much room it has for accessory storage. Looking forward to the follow-up on it.
Long time fan. Would love to see you demonstrate the lighting options for a larger group. The idea of one or two small flashes bounced off the ceiling seems good, but there are often challenges, like fall-off for part of the group. Since the groups get impatient fast, would love to see you demonstrate various options.
Great tips guys. I have a few camera bags and I am not totally happy with any of them. Any further tips on what to look for in a bag would be great.
I find backpacks annoying because you have to take them off to get at your gear and sling backpacks can give you shoulder pain if you put the same amount of gear in them because all the wieght is on one shoulder rather than two. Perhaps you could show some options plus a recommended maximum load for each of them. Thanks
That bag looks cool. Thanks for the wonderful show.
I thought I already commented, but apparently not. I would love, repeat LOVE, to have that bag.
Thanks for the great tips. That ONA bag is to die for
It may be too late, but I haven’t seen your user review of the Ona bag. So, thought I’d enter the contest for the bag, just in case you haven’t already given it away.
– Bill
With all due respect, it seems silly and cruel to submit anyone or any group of people to a situation where they must endure direct lighting and have to squint or close their eyes in order to obtain a picture.
Why not simply have them stand in the shade, have your camera on a flash bracket with the flash unit mounted above the camera, and take as many pictures as needed?
The downside of doing this is that you will need to always carry the above suggested rig with you all of the time-and I have not found a way to comfortably do this.
Thanks for sharing the years of experience and talent of so many light picture artists.
