<p>Better Fuji Photos Episode 42: 2023 Wrap and 2024 Thoughts</p> <p>We made it a year! I honestly didn't think this podcast would make it a year, discouraged mainly by statistics of how many of them quickly die. But I was encouraged to continue by all of you!</p> <p>How did 2023 go for everyone? Were you able to pursue the year-long challenge presented in Episode 1? I hope so, and I hope it made you a better photographer.</p> <p>Going into 2024, this will no longer be a weekly podcast. I need to take a few things off my plate, so I'll only be able to keep this up every two or three weeks.</p> <p>And that leaves me with a final thought going into the following year: what does photography mean to you? This was posed in another podcast a few years ago; I answered it in an article linked below and now here in this episode, and I'd be curious to hear your answer in the article comments.</p> <p><strong>Accompanying web article</strong>: <a href="https://jmpeltier.com/what-is-photography-all-about/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://jmpeltier.com/what-is-photography-all-about/</a></p> <p><strong>Fujifilm Photographer Membership</strong>: <a href="https://photocourses.link/fujimembers?coupon=pod20">https://photocourses.link/fujimembers</a> </p> <p>Use the code "POD20" for 20% off all courses.</p> <p>Please subscribe, rate, and review wherever you prefer to listen to your podcasts so we can keep this show going.</p> <p>If you ever have any questions that you’d like to have answered in an episode, please send me an email at [email protected].</p>

<p>Better Fuji Photos Episode 41: Tips for Using Fujifilm's Color Chrome Effect</p> <p>Fujifilm's camera manuals leave much to be desired when discussing Color Chrome Effect and Color Chrome FX Blue. What exactly do they do? When would you use them? And how?</p> <p>Color Chrome Effect settings (which may or may not be found on certain cameras) help you avoid oversaturating specific colors by decreasing the luminance of those colors, effectively giving you a wider range of tones in colors close to oversaturation. This can really help photographers photographing for in-camera JPEGs. They will not affect the RAW file.</p> <p>When using these settings:</p> <ul> <li>Remember that they will respond differently to each film simulation</li> <li>A setting that looks good for one film simulation might look like garbage in another</li> <li>The Color Chrome FX Blue setting works great as an "artificial polarizer" to get the same effect with skies</li> <li>You can preview setting effects either from the Image Quality menu or programming them to the Q Menu (ep. 31)</li> </ul> <p><strong>Accompanying web article</strong>: <a href="https://jmpeltier.com/color-chrome-effect-color-chrome-fx-blue/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://jmpeltier.com/color-chrome-effect-color-chrome-fx-blue/</a></p> <p><strong>Perfect Fujifilm In-Camera JPGs course</strong>: <a href="https://photocourses.link/jpg?coupon=pod20">https://photocourses.link/jpg</a></p> <p><strong>Fujifilm Photographer Membership</strong>: <a href="https://photocourses.link/fujimembers?coupon=pod20">https://photocourses.link/fujimembers</a> </p> <p>Use the code "POD20" for 20% off all courses.</p> <p>Please subscribe, rate, and review wherever you prefer to listen to your podcasts so we can keep this show going.</p> <p>If you ever have any questions that you’d like to have answered in an episode, please send me an email at [email protected].</p> <p>End music: Dylan Sitts - Tahoe Trip</p>

Better Fuji Photos Episode 40: Mastering Depth of Field - It's Not Just Aperture! Maybe you've been there. You're wondering why your photo created at f/22 has a sharp foreground but a blurry background, even though it was at f/22. Or why your photo made at f/1.4 doesn't have a blurry background like f/1.4 photos should. That's because, as educators, we've failed to emphasize how depth of field is equally affected by variables other than your aperture. Focal length, focus distance, and how the photo is viewed also affect your depth of field. In this episode, we'll discuss how: Wider focal lengths give you deeper depths of field Further focus distances give you deeper depths of field Smaller apertures give you deeper depths of field And how all three combine to give you a final depth of field Read the accompanying web article here: https://jmpeltier.com/what-affects-depth-of-field/ Take the Advanced Depth of Field course: https://photocourses.link/dof Explore the Fujifilm Photographer Membership options: https://photocourses.link/fujimembers Please subscribe, rate, and review wherever you prefer to listen to your podcasts so we can keep this show going.
