With different camera bodies, lenses, and countless accessories available, deciding what to buy that will really make a difference is often very difficult. In this episode I discusses how to go about picking out the right gear.

In this episode, I discuss the ago old question…is it the photographer or the gear?
At almost any event someone will likely say “That’s looks like a great camera, it must take awesome pictures” and over the years people have argued that you can hand a point and shoot camera to a great photographer and they can make amazing photos with it.
Is there any truth behind these statements? Let’s dive into the issue and see what we come up with.

We are finally off for a much needed vacation but of course, I plan on doing some personal projects along the way. One of my goals is to try to not actually open my laptop at all and see how much work I can really do with just my tablet. I am not an issue guy, I have am all Android so I have the Motorola Xoom which I really like.
Already I have hit a minor snag. I have a new presentation I am working on but I am finding the presentation editing to be horribly weak. Quickoffice allows you to create and edit Powerpoint decks but you can’t apply themes or change fonts. The Google Docs app doesn’t even support presentations yet, and using other online presentation tools is not an option at Internet access being 75 cents per MINUTE. At least I can get all the slides put together and do the theming and fonts later.
The next challenge is photo editing. While Picsay Pro has been my tool of choice for quite a while, the new Photoshop Touch is going to get a major workout. At only $9.99, Photoshop Touch is the most powerful photo editor available on any tablet today.
Stay tuned for more updates and upcoming pictures from our trip.
I love podcasts and especially photography podcasts so I was uber-thrilled to be a guest on The Digital Photography Show. My own photography site, Camera Dojo, was featured and it was announced that I will be doing regular segments on The Digital Photography Show as well.
