Do You Want To Know The 20 Camera Settings That I Use?  Hi and welcome to Episode 105 of the Photography Explained podcast.

I’m your host Rick, and in each episode I will explain one photographic thing to you in plain English in less than 10 minutes (ish) without the irrelevant details. What I tell you is based on my lifetime of photographic experience. And not Google.

Before I go on I need your help. I need your questions to answer. This is why my podcast exists, so please get in touch with your question and get a shout out from me in a future episode. Just head over to photographyexplainedpodcast.com/start.

Here is the answery bit
