Special Announcements, FroFactory and an Interview: RAWtalk #167
What is this weeks special announcement, tune in at the very beginning of the show to find out. We want to mess with some sponsors by blowing up their twitters and asking for “some free shit”. Go ahead and send separate tweets to @LexarMemory @VideoBlocks @AdoramaPIX and ask for some “Free Shit”. Be sure to let them know that @FroKnowsPhoto sent you. Thanks for that. This week I invited Eric Adams onto the show. Most of you will not know who he is but for the past 24 years he has been a prominent writer with numerous national magazines. Over the past few years he has started to venture into the photo world so he can offer not just writing but photography, aka be a double threat. This was a fun and informative interview. I think many of you will find yourself in the same boat as Eric, have a non photography job but love photography and looking for a way to incorporate it into your job. For gear of the week I chose to use full bleed prints from the Canon Prograph 1000 since we just finished up the Real World Review on it. Stay tuned for that in the not to distant future. Thank you guys for your continued support, if you haven’t subscribed on YouTube yet please do so. 00:00:16 - Todd’s Special Announcement 00:03:30 - Introducing the Fro Factory 00:06:53 - Noah’s Confession 00:07:52 - Tweet Our Sponsors 00:11:19 - Photo News 00:33:55 - Eric Adams Interview 01:11:22 - Gear of the Week 01:13:30 - Wheel of Fro

Hookers, Nikon D5 / D500 and CES 2016 Recap: RAWtalk 165
We made the trip out to Las Vegas for CES 2016 because Nikon said we will not want to miss the show. Turns out they were correct. Nikon announced not one DSLR in the way of the D5 but a surprise to the world in the way of the D500. We discus everything that happened in Las Vegas from encountering hookers to running into Shaq again and all the fun toys from CES. This weeks show was brought to you by HOYA and their HD3 Filters which have been tested to have the BEST LIGHT transmission rate in the entire industry. That means if you put it in front of your top of the line glass, you will not be hurting your image quality. Stephen brings us the Photo news, we have some gear of the week and we finish with Flying Solo. Oh yea, the wheel of FRO may have stopped or come close to landing on the Grand Prize.

Did they really "BAN RAW" or not? RAWtalk 159
I must have had 200 people send me the article discussing Reuters supposedly “banning RAW files” and knew I needed to take a close look at what they were actually saying. The reason so many people were up in arms is because they read a headline that mentioned “banning raw” in it. The truth of the matter is RAW was not being banned, editing was. We go in depth on this news at 13:15 of the show. This weeks show is brought to you by ATOMOS which we use and LOVE. If you’re looking to get a clean signal straight off the camera and get beyond the 20/30 min record limit you need to check out Atomos. They have units starting as low as $295 that will get anyone in the game to get longer record times and much better video quality. Go check them out. Bruce Bennett was back on the show this week to discuss the release of his new book “Hockey’s Greatest Photos”. You don’t have to love hockey to enjoy this discussion that takes us through the journey of creating this photo book. Bruce was also on RAWtalk 106 with an awesome interview done on the Philadelphia Flyers bench. Gear of the week is the Sony RX100 IV pocket camera that we just did an unboxing and sniff test of. We spun the wheel and we requested that you send in your audio recording of you saying “Spin That WHEEEEEEELLLLL” to SingWheelOfFro at Gmail dot com. Thank you guys for your continued support.
