We have made it to the 100th Episode of FroKnowsPhoto RAWtalk.\\xa0 What started as an idea to have a roundtable discussion each week has morphed a few times to get to where it stands today.\\xa0

\\n

\\xa0

\\n

When it started we did not record video, just audio.\\xa0 But something always told me that audio alone is not enough, we needed to add video.\\xa0 When I started to record video it was done with a static GoPro camera with the audio running into it.\\xa0 The quality was fine but nothing over the top. \\xa0

\\n

\\n

I wanted better audio, better video and a show that stood out above the other photography podcasts.\\xa0 The missing piece to the puzzle was Stephen Eckert.\\xa0 I knew Stephen had audio skills, so i asked him to help me out with recording each week.\\xa0 Right away he said I should add more camera angles and that he would edit them.\\xa0 Talk about grabbing the balls by the horns, he took initiative. \\xa0

\\n

\\xa0

\\n

Quickly we added Stephens Photo News where he started at the table then went back off to the side to run the audio.\\xa0 But more and more I would toss questions back his way and he ended up at the table the entire show.\\xa0 And now he is officially part of the show. \\xa0

\\n

What Stephen did was make himself indispensable to the show.\\xa0 He didn\\u2019t wait for me to give him anything, he simply showed that without him the show wouldn\\u2019t be as good.\\xa0 And that\\u2019s the reason he is now full time with me.\\xa0

\\n

Last but not least I have to thank all of you for sticking with the show.\\xa0 I know it must have been tough at the beginning while I discovered what the show could have been but your questions and support certainly helped.\\xa0 Now together we have something that is real, fun, enjoyable, informative and sometimes over the top. \\xa0

\\n

Thank You!!!!

PS.\\xa0 I can not forget to thank RODE Microphones for their continued support of the show.\\xa0 We use the RODE Broadcaster microphones each and every week. \\xa0

\\n

Atomos, what can I say, they allow us to record our main angle continuously without having to reset the cameras every 20 minutes.\\xa0 We LOVE these little guys and know you will too if you record video. \\xa0

\\n

\\xa0

\\n

AllensCamera.com: Without your support from day one I would not have been able to get as far as I have.\\xa0

\\n

\\n

And finally everyone on the Wheel Of Fro for buying into how much fun this little game could be.
