Updates on my review of the Nikon D750, Is photography Art? A recent 6.5 Million dollar photo stirs some controversy, The D5500 is rumored, skipping the D5400 - you might be surprised to find out why. Lytro cameras now offer focus spread and we answer reader AND viewer questions. This was our first live show and a big thanks to all those that jumped in and commented/shared their thoughts as we recorded. More live shows are in the future.News:Lytro offers Focus Spread Technology http://www.popphoto.com/gear/2014/12/lytro-focus-spread-technology-gives-you-full-control-over-depth-field-after-fact?dom=tw&src=SOCNikon D5500 Rumours will include a touchscreenDiscussion:Is Photography ART? This recurring discussion was brought to the forefront again when Peter Liks "Phantom" sold for $6.5 million and Jonathan Jones of the Guardian had strong opinions that photography is not ART.http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/jonathanjonesblog/2014/dec/10/most-expensive-photograph-ever-hackneyed-tastelessThe photo in color: http://www.lik.com/thework/canyons-arches/ghost.htmlFor reference Google Search results of Antelope Canyon http://luvit.me/1Au79cmReaderQuestionsQuestion-- body or lens?? What is more important to the overall AF experience?Do you know how much the 5DMk4 will cost?Should I wait to buy the Canon 5D III? Is canon going to refresh the line-up?Would there be an increase in image quality and low light performance going from an XSi to a 7D mk1?5D MK IV with Sony or Canon sensor?More towards the business end, for people in portrait photography, what are the best ways to get your name out there other than word of mouth and FB utilization.I have a crop sensor dslr(70D). For christmas, I have the budget for either, a canon L lens like 24-70mm or a full frame body. What do you recommend I buy?Are all macro lenses change their max aperture when you focus closer to the subject?

Although I also invested in LR5 (which is really good), I'll be honest and say that I just don't see much difference, if any, between the Jpeg and the RAW after they've been edited (for example, to bring out the shadows etc etc). Would you say that the quality of Jpegs is now so high that there's less reason to shoot in RAW.

If that is a good solution which brand do you recommend?Immanuel Parra -Hey Toby & Christina thanks for the video, very helpful, even though I do have a question, I am going to travel through Mexico in a few months and would like to know what type of lenses would be good to take some photographs and video footage while I'm out there...and I would like to hear more on the business on photography subject. Thanks once again ;)BabyBelleLove- Question specifically for Christina - and it's kinda random...lol - but, in the behind the scenes of the styled shoot it appears you're petite. So I'm not sure if that's an accurate observation or not. If so, do you have have any issues with being petite? I'm 5'1" myself and sometimes I feel like if I was a little taller I might get a better shot. Maybe it's my own issue, but if it is something you've had to take into consideration and have made adjustments for, I'd love to know!Freddy Cougar i'd like to know how to do such a photo that you got on your wall focus object with a blured/moving background ! i got a t5i and 18-55mm lens kit + 40mm pancake THX a bunchLee Pinnington- Hope you both have a great weekend and always watch to the very end. If you wanted to do the detailed stuff then that would be fine, always interesting, maybe do one about props and giving the image that extra oomf!Jeff Martins My question would be about cards. Will the quality of the card effect the sharpness of a photo. Also will thequality effect video playback?I have had some issues with stop and go playback, not sure if it is something I am doing or the quality of the cards I was using.One more questions how many time can you reuse a card? by erasing old photos.

What recommendations do you have about this....Melinda Cochran I would like to know how you keep your equipment safe when traveling. What do you do when you stay in motels/hotels ect.Rene Beaudoin Hello to both of you from Canada, I have recently purchased a Canon Macro Lens EF 100mm 1:2.8 L IS USM. I understand that it is one of the top of the line in Macro Lens and my Question is, Would you or wouldn't you add ext.tubes to this lens. Better yet is it possible to add ext tubes to this lens. I thank you in advance for any advise that you can answer on this question. All the best to both.Daniel Colyer In terms of composition, what do you look for when shooting street photography?David Aronov My question: When uploading to Instagram, maybe you have mentioned this before, but which way is best to upload to Instagram the 1 x 1 ratio or the way I have been doing which is full size but with a white boarder around the picture? I noticed many do it your way and the pictures are really HQ but also it does cut down some of the details I wanted to include in the picture.Michael Kahn Any tips on how to get good candids of kids? They move quickly and sometimes either freeze or (the opposite) act out when they see me break out the camera.Ahmed Adly My Question: How to get Sharp images with night shooting, and is increasing the F to 22 or above a good practice? as some friends advised to do soNew Segment - Favorite photo of the week - Christina and I both pick a photo from the Flickr Group(uploaded within the last week).
