Podcast #85 – Conversation with Jason Anderson – Smartphones / Projects / Lightroom Workshop
Today I am joined again by Jason Anderson from http://canonblogger.com to talk about the use of Smart phones in our photography endeavors. We discuss using these phones, like iPhones and Android phones for taking personal project images, and how these types of phone/camera hybrids have been evolving. Like true friends, we lay down some smack and challenged each other with a personal project.
Jason’s Project is at http://mydroidpics.com which features pictures taken with his Motorola Droid phone. I challenged Jason to post more frequent images to his site.
I was challenged by Jason to work on my photo-a-day project by creating a website dedicated to those images. To hold up my part of the challenge, I launched http://kerrysdroidpics.com and put in the last few days of images that I have been working on.
We also talked about our upcoming Learning Lightroom 3 Workshops that will be held in six cities coming up soon, for more information, check out http://cameradojo.com/workshops.

Great podcast and info on the Droid apps. I am happy to hear you are coming to Phx. I love Lightroom, it's a huge part of my workflow, and I am looking forward to seeing if there are things I can do more effeciently.
It was really nice hearing you guys talk about doing a photo-a-day/week project using a smart phone. I post a photo every day that I have taken that day to: http://aphotographicday.blogspot.com/
The majority of my photos are taken with my BlackBerry Storm smart phone. It feels like smart phones are at the initial stages of taking the place of compact cameras. I have a P6000 that I rarely use because the phone is smaller and I always have it with me. The DSLR only comes out for particular projects or on the weekend. Keep up the great work.
Hi Kerry,
This show inspired me to do a personal project. I have gone public and am currently posting 2 photos a day for one year on two separate online locations. My first photo is taken daily at 3:33pm with a Nikon point & shoot and my second photo is a favorite-shot-of-the day taken with a Canon 5d Mark II. If you're going to check out my work visit my flickr photostream because Blogger does a terrible job when it comes to image quality:

As a young photographer I really appreciate everything I learn from listening to your show. When my photography carrier gets going I'll be sure to donate to this show.
