Hi Keith, thank you so much for this wonderful post and of course for this brilliant work on your channel. Behind this topic is also a big change in how knowledge wants to be communicated today. When I was first trained to work in the darkroom, the main aim was to give me an overall understanding of the media and functions of the equipment used. And I had to smile intensely when ‘mix & match’ was proclaimed as the motto. Because this motto absolutely requires a basic understanding and knowledge of the subject and ‘that’ simply cannot be covered by ‘standard operations procedures’ alone, just imparting knowledge instead of work steps is simply a completely different requirement. Thank you very much for upholding this motto!
Thanks Keith for another great video. Fully agree that workflows very much depend on personal preferences and the types of photo's you are taking and the ultimate use. To your point, it is worth experimenting with different techniques and tools to see what works best for you! As you mentioned don't be fooled by the instant presets that will solve or you editing issues, at best these will over be a starting point and may not work at all with your images! Thanks again for an insightful video and good luck with the sorting/packing!!!
Thanks - just fitted the new battery and my 2010 MacBook Pro is back again It has a lot of colour management software and all sorts of old stuff on it, including a copy of [Mac] Powerpoint for some of my talks and lectures ;-)
I was in Durham Cathedral a week ago - on entry, I asked about their photography policy and the answer was - "we don't have one" - "fill your boots" (poetic licence) - so I did.
I inttend to buy gfx 100s & gf 35 70 and I am looking for canon pro 200 to print my photos, do you think the printer can handle b&w picture? I have never use the printer before. Thank you
Yes, some papers better than others, but read my actual review - it has a B&W section www.northlight-images.co.uk/canon-pro-200-printer-review/ but more at www.northlight-images.co.uk/black-and-white-printing-with-the-pro-200/ For B&W you might prefer the pro-300. Once again, see www.northlight-images.co.uk/black-and-white-printing-with-the-pro-300/
I think Apple has had more than enough time to sort out its magic exploding battery problem. I expedited the problem around 20 years ago. In passing, you mentioned "Which is the best printer?" I have an answer, Epson printers using pigment inks. The reason is that Epson pigment inks are more opaque to UV light, a useful characteristic if you want to make digital negatives for alternate processes such as cyanotypes. I watched this video expecting it to address the problem of organising images and photos so that I can find them later. For a commercial photographer, I imagine client then date of commission would just about do it. I do no commissioned work and generally don't do much planning about where to go. Locality is obvious, but I might photograph several locations in a day. Date? Doesn't help me where my Busselton photos are. Currently, I am using Bridge, not LrC.
Yes, my 2010 laptop, with a 3rd party battery installed in ~2018 Ah, you expected wrongly... :-) I too use bridge - that is a subject ini itself - I was looking at the end to end process for an image, not a collection.

Thanks - glad it made sense! ;-)

Thanks - it was a few years ago, will pop in when I'm next up there!
