Jack Lodge is a landscape and wildlife photographer based in the south of England. This conversation is well timed as he’s gradually moving from purely landscape to wildlife with a little bit of astral in there for good measure, and if I had to guess I wouldn’t be surprised if film showed up at some point in the not too distant future. He was lovely company, I hope you enjoy this chat with Jack.More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.

Prime Lenses Episode 73 - 2bitboy
This week on the show I spoke with Sam aka 2bitboy, the creator of the 2bittoy, a modification kit for the gameboy camera. You can 3D print this add on kit, take the innards of your Gameboy Camera out, put them in this shell and then use the camera with a variety of lenses. This was exactly the sort of madness I wanted to delve into and Sam was kind enough to give up some of his weekend to talk to me about it. This is nerdy in the best ways possible. I hope you enjoy it.More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth.

Leica 100 Special Episode 4
For the next four weeks, in addition to the regular Sunday episode, I’ll be dropping a special episode with interviews from a recent event I attended. Leica invited me to their centenary celebrations at the end of June, they were celebrating 100 years on continuous camera manufacture and they invited a few of their closest friends to attend and celebrate with them. I was invited to interview a number of special guests and so I’m going to present to you four twenty-five minute episodes. 100 minutes for 100 years.

Prime Lenses Episode 72 - Marcus Haslam
Marcus Haslam is a photographer from the south of England who has retraced his roots in the north to make pictures of his hometown. Blackpool has changed a lot over the years and you’ll hear about his motivation to make the project, what he found and what he’s doing with the images now that he has them. It was wonderful to catch up with a friend and former colleague.More about this show:A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth.

A camera is just a tool, but spend enough time with photographers, and you’ll see them go misty-eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small, fast prime that they had in their youth.
