    Hey Kerry and David! Love the shows you guys have been putting out. They are very entertaining and I have been learning a lot! One quick suggestion about your podcasts though. I noticed that on a lot of the recent episodes, you have been using separate channels (right and left) when different people talk. This bugged me at first because it sounded a little weird, but I noticed recently that the worst part about it is if I am trying to listen to the podcast on my iPod with only one ear plugged in, I can't hear the second person! If you could stop playing back the audio on separate channels I think that would be a lot easier to listen to.



    Keep up the great work guys!

    Hi guys!



    Awsome show!!! Last week's was good too, but this week was really great.



    I also think this the video thing is here to stay. I've been doing slideshows with still and video since 2006 with my familly pics, I record it on a DVD an play it in my TV. Everybody loves it.



    I'm now delivering slideshows for my weddings and it would be great to have some small video trailers with it, but it should has HD quality and sound aswell.



    The video, the sound and higher but usable ISO are the things that I'm looking for in my future upgrades. This year I think I'll just upgrade from my 30D to the 40D as they're cheap and are more than enough for me as I also use "L" lenses and I'm not printing bigger than 20in in the wedding albums.



    Cheers,

    Tiago Valente
