After meeting both John Sexton and [Kodak's] Scott DiSabato at the 2007 Photoplus Expo in New York, I sit down with them and discuss the introduction of the new [see previous post] T-MAX-400 B&W film. John goes into some detail regarding the films ability and his impressions from use.

As more and more digital cameras are introduced, I wanted to find what Kodak’s thinking was in introducing a new film and who the possible users are. Also, John discusses his workflow with the film and how and why he uses film for his work. A fascinating chat with two ends of the spectrum—a film manufacturer and a film user.

Bert is an attorney who concentrates on intellectual property and environmental law. He is recognized nationally as an advocate of the right to take photographs in public places, having appeared in media such as National Public Radio’s Morning Edition, Popular Photography, Shutterbug, and Wired.

He’s also the author of the ubiquitous PDF leaflet The Photographer’s Right and the book Legal Handbook for Photographers: The Rights and Liabilities of Making Images (which I have and heartily recommend).

For this weekend project, I’ve made a Kite Arial Photography Rig (KAP). This was one of those projects that require remaking multiple times to get it so that it would fly. I started with a VEX robotics kit and then had to make lots of changes to make it lighter. Watch the video to learn more! For more instructions, please read the instructional post.

Visit MAKE for a variety of downloading options.

While the Web site, newyorkflickr.com, is still a little rough around the edges, don’t let that stop you from listening to the engaging first eposide, which features a photo and history stroll around Greenpoint, Brooklyn with Moufle.
