Step Up, Step Down, Step All Around - TDS Photography Podcast

This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,036, Jan. 27, 2026. Today's theme is, "Step Up, Step Down, Step All Around." I'm Derrick Story. One of the great things about carrying around compact cameras is that you can pack two of them. And the efficiency gets ever better if you can share accessories among them. On the eve of my Mobile Photography Workshop, that's exactly what I'm going to cover today. I hope you enjoy the show. Digital Photography Podcast 1036 Tune-In Via Your Favorite Podcast App! Apple Podcasts -- Spotify Podcasts -- Stitcher Podbean Podcasts -- Podbay FM -- Tune In Step Up, Step Down, Step All Around Last week I focused on the OM System Tough TG-7, which I think is a technological wonder, but man does not live by ultra-compact camera alone. So in my everyday bag, along with the TG-7, I have my trusty OM System OM-3. What may surprise you, however, are the lenses and accessories that I carry with it. Because the TG-7 accepts 40.5mm filters using the handsome CLA-T01 Conversion Adapter ($37 on Amazon) or the affordable JJC Conversion Lens Adapter Ring ($9), I have an stash of cool filters for it, such as the K&F CONCEPT 40.5mm Black Diffusion 1/8 Cinematic Effect Filter and the K&F CONCEPT 40.5mm Black Diffusion 1/4 Filter Mist Cinematic Effect Filter with 18 Multi-Layer Coatings ($17.99). These would be fantastic to use with my OM-3. If only I had lenses that accepted 40.5mm filters... The lenses I carry in my everyday kit all have 37mm filter rings: Olympus M.Zuiko 17mm f/2.8 pancake prime lens. (BTW: the Olympus LC-37C auto lens cap works on this optic as well). Olympus M.Zuiko 45mm f/1.8 compact telephoto. Olympus M.Zuiko 14-42mm EZ zoom lens. By now, you know the answer to this situation: a 37-40.5mm Step-Up Ring Adapter, two pieces for $6.95 With it, every filter that I carry in my bag - diffuser, polarizer, IR - works on both cameras and all of my lenses. But the efficiency doesn't stop there. My Olympus FL-300R Flash, which is smaller than a deck of cards, offers dedicated programmable exposure with the OM-3, multiple tilting angles, built-in switchable diffusion panel, and two-mode RC wireless connectivity that also works with the TG-7. So I can use it as an off-camera flash with the tough camera, or an on-camera bounce flash with the OM-3. And last, but not least, both cameras can be recharged with a basic USB-C cable. Not bad for a kit that weighs ounces, not pounds. This Week in the News Both Michael Alford and I have cool TG-6/7 articles this week on Live View.

This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,035, Jan. 20, 2026. Today's theme is, "5 Impressive TG-7 Features You May Not Know About." I'm Derrick Story. Our OM System Tough cameras don't get as much attention during the off season. After all, they're designed for our spring - summer - fall adventure trips. But that may change after this podcast when you discover these tips that will keep this wondrous little camera in your pocket all year round. All of that, and more, on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show. Digital Photography Podcast 1035 Tune-In Via Your Favorite Podcast App! Apple Podcasts -- Spotify Podcasts -- Stitcher Podbean Podcasts -- Podbay FM -- Tune In 5 Impressive TG-7 Features You May Not Know About The OM System Tough TG-7 is amazing for all weather photography - from the pouring rain, to freezing cold, to snorkeling in tropical waters. But it also inherents from Olympus DNA some nifty features that you may not be taking advantage of, at least not yet. Let me show you my 5 favorites. Focus Stacking and Focus Bracketing in Microscope Mode - With Focus Stacking, the TG-7 will process the stack in-camera and provide you with a final result that has an extended depth of field. In the Menu settings, you can choose between 3 and 10 frames for your stack, and set a short delay too. For Focus Bracketing, you can choose more frames, but you have to process them later on the computer. Art Filters and Monochrome Mode - The TG-7 includes 16 Art Filters, such as Instant Film, Dramatic Tone, Soft Focus, and Vintage. Plus, it has a full-blown Monochrome mode. All of these options are in the Picture Mode menu. Full HD 120 FPS and 4K 30p Movie Recording - Yes, it captures slow motion video and 4K with just a press of the red button on the back of the camera. Mount Filters with the Optional CLA-T01 Adapter - Accepting 40.5mm filters using the handsome CLA-T01 Conversion Adapter ($37) or the affordable JJC Conversion Lens Adapter Ring ($9). I like adding the K&F CONCEPT 40.5mm Black Diffusion 1/8 Cinematic Effect Filter for a more photographic look to my images. But just about every filter is available in this size, including polarizers. Infrared 720nm Photography with Stock Camera - Speaking of filters, add a GREEN.L 40.5mm IR 720nm (R72) Filter for $27, adjust your Custom WB settings and capture impressive color and B&W IR shots at the 25mm focal length. One-Touch Digital Compass, Thermometer, and GPS Readout - Press the Info button once when the camera is turned off and you'll be greeted with an impressive readout screen that would make a pilot smile. Long-press the Info button and activate the LED for an emergency flashlight. Add these features to its all-weather toughness and crazy-impressive macro mode, and you have a versatile pocket camera that costs about 1/3 the price of a Ricoh GR IV, and is worthy to be in your pocket all year round.

This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,031, Dec. 23, 2025. Today's theme is, "More Realistic Film Simulations with a Dash of Grain." I'm Derrick Story. Film simulations by Fuji, Nikon, and OM System are great for color and tones, but there's a missing ingredient when compared to actual analog shots: grain! This week we're going to explore the virtues of a few dashes of grain and learn how to apply it for more realistic film simulations. All of that, and more, on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show. Digital Photography Podcast 1031 Tune-In Via Your Favorite Podcast App! Apple Podcasts -- Spotify Podcasts -- Stitcher Podbean Podcasts -- Podbay FM -- Tune In More Realistic Film Simulations with a Dash of Grain Author's Note - I've published an article on Live View that includes lots of photo examples to accompany the text. You can read it for free here. This all started with Firmware Update 3.0 for my Nikon Zf. There were all sorts of great new features including on they called Film Grain Options. I had to check this out. It features six intensity levels and three grain sizes. Generally speaking, I select intensity level 2 or 3 and small for the size. Combined with a film simulation setting, such as Tri-X or Kodacolor, the results are much closer to real film than anything I had previously rendered from a digital camera. It was the missing ingredient! The new Film Grain Options is located in the Camera Menu about two-thirds the way down. Remember, you have to upgrade your firmware to V3.0 for it to appear. I recommend shooting RAW+Jpeg when working with grain and simulations. The settings will be applied to the Jpeg, and the RAW remains a pure capture without the effects. Nail the exposure, and you can use the Jpegs right out of the camera. The RAWs are there if you need them. For extra fun, I recommend using a vintage Nikon lens with the FTZ II adapter to further enhance the analog look. If you use an AI-S optic, such as the Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 AI-S with the FTZ II, you'll still retain a lot of camera functionality, such as Aperture Priority, but get closer to that classic Nikon look. Don't forget to add the lens to the Non-CPU Lens Data option in the menu. By doing so, its information will be listed in the EXIF metadata of your shots. The OM System OM-3 Film Grain Option The Nikon Zf isn't the only camera that provides this feature. I continued my research and discovered that the OM System OM-3 has its own grain implementation. I love shooting B&W with this camera via the MONO setting on the front creative control dial. What I discovered was that after I choose the MONO 1 setting, I can fine tune its rendering. The options include highlights/shadows, shading effect, sharpness, and yes, Film Grain Effect. OM System provides four grain choices: Off, Low, Medium, and High. I started with Medium for MONO 1, and loved the results. Why didn't I figure this out earlier? FujiFilm X100V Offers Film Grain Too Surely Fuji, with all of its great film simulations, wouldn't pass on this opportunity. And even though their implementation isn't as flexible as Nikon's, it's available. On my X100V, Grain Effect is listed in the IQ menu with two parameters: Roughness and Size. Each parameter has options. For Roughness, there's Strong, Weak, and Off. For Size, we can choose between Large and Small. I combined Strong with Large and selected the Acros film simulation. And just like my experience with the Nikon Zf and the OM-3, adding film grain to the Acros simulation enhanced its analog-like rendering. This option was also available on the GFX100S medium format camera, so I'm guessing that it's there for all Fujifilms. Comparing Film Grain Renderings to RAW Files As much as I like creating Jpegs that I can use right out of the camera, I still capture RAWs as well. There are scenarios when I don't want the effects and would rather start from scratch with a RAW file. Plus, the RAWs are also great for comparison purposes. They're like the "control files" in a whacky creative experiment. My query: Were the grainy film-simulated images better than the smooth, saturated digital files? As you may have guessed, it depends on the subject and the story being told. I also like that I can go crazy with the Picture Controls on the Zf (where the film simulations are located), add grain, and not worry about overdoing it because the RAW version is always there if I need it. For me, this encourages experimentation and creativity. You Can Do It in Post Too If your camera doesn't offer built-in grain control, or you want more fine-tuning capability than what it offers, you can add this effect in post-production. Most apps include this adjustment. In Lightroom, for example, you can change the amount, size, and roughness of grain with sliders, so it seems more controllable than it is in-camera, which bakes it in. The colors remain true, but the grain can vary. Final Thoughts All of this craziness began with a firmware update for the Nikon Zf. A shoutout to them for continually refining an already great camera. And I've also learned that film grain is artistically different than digital noise. As I examine actually film photos and look at the gain patterns, I find them pleasing. They add sharpness and tooth to the pictures. Nikon further enhances this effect by randomizing the grain in a similar fashion as actual film. Theoretically, no two digital pictures are alike. But this is also a revelation for my OM-3 and X100V. Again, as much as I previously enjoyed shooting in MONO with the OM-3 or Astia with the X100V, they never quite looked as analog as I wanted. Now those images come much closer. I love shooting with real film. But it isn't always convenient. Now I feel like I have more control over the type of images I want to create with my digital cameras. It all started with a firmware update and the question, "Why the heck did they add Film Grain Options to my Nikon Zf?" Now I know why. This Week in the News Why are Olympus cameras so overlooked?

This is The Digital Story Podcast 1,029, Dec. 9, 2025. Today's theme is, "Year-End Organizing Checklist for Photographers." I'm Derrick Story. It's easy for photographers to be distracted by holiday sales as the year closes. Black Friday discounts and Cyber Monday deals are indeed tempting. But instead of focusing on acquiring new gear, this is a great time of year to manage what we already have. And that's what we're going to talk about on today's TDS Photography Podcast. I hope you enjoy the show. Digital Photography Podcast 1029 Tune-In Via Your Favorite Podcast App! Apple Podcasts -- Spotify Podcasts -- Stitcher Podbean Podcasts -- Podbay FM -- Tune In Year-End Organizing Checklist for Photographers Over the course of the previous 11 months, many of us bought new accessories, cameras, and lenses. Most likely we traveled to beautiful destinations and filled our SD cards with thousands of images. And if we're lucky, we even made a few dollars along the way. December is the perfect time to organize and account for all of that activity. Have you documented the serial numbers for your new gear? Is your backup system up to date? Do you know where your receipts are? Do you have any plans for next year? This podcast can serve as a handy checklist to make sure your photography-house is in order as we prepare to embark upon 2026. Let's start with image backup and archiving. Protect the Work You've Done I think in terms of calendar year when organizing my images. In part, this is how my brain works. So I soon will be closing out 2025 and starting anew with 2026. This year's images have been backed up along the way. But December is the time to test your system to make sure it's as robust as you believe it is. And that's item one on our checklist: Test Your Backup System. I have my images organized on an external RAID drive and on a portable SSD. My favorite shots are saved in iCloud as an additional layer of convenience and protection. I can access my Cloud account from any of my devices as long as I have an internet connection. For the connected drives, I use Peakto to account for them and provide a friendly user interface for managing the shots. I like it because it brings everything together from various locations into one easy-to-view location. I put my system to the test by creating a list of shots that I want to find, and then search for them. This is a strict Pass/Fail activity. If I don't recover 100 percent of the photos I have on my list, then I troubleshoot the system until I reach perfection. Serial Numbers and Updated Insurance Riders It doesn't do any good to insure equipment that you've sold. December is the time to review your insurance riders to delete items that you no longer own, and to add gear that you've acquired over the year. In addition to the policy itself, I keep an inventory list separately as well. Is your accounting woefully out of date? Shore it up now. It feels great to have everything itemized. Plus now you have a platform to add additional information such as purchase date, price, and even a photo of the item with a short description. If you experience theft, fire, flooding or some other loss, your inventory will help facilitate a fast recovery. Print Your Best Pictures We have no idea what the future has in store for us. Hard drives and computers could go the way of the dodo bird. A massive solar storm or cyber attack could erase everything. AI bots could go rouge. I know this sounds very sci-fi, but we just don't know. Archival prints are immune from all of this. We don't need a device to view them. They have a long shelf life. And they are beautiful. If you were to make six prints every year of your best stuff, chances are good that you would have an entire exhibit archived by the time you retire. Think about it... if you wanted, you could erase every device you own and still have a collection of images left for posterity. Start this year by making at least 6 of the largest prints your printer can output. Store them in an archival box and mark the outside clearly. Then next December, do it again. Identify the Gear That You're Not Using Our photography, like everything else, evolves over time. We find new areas of interest and perhaps become less enamored with previous favorites. Our gear will reflect those changes. We're pretty good about adding new items to accommodate fresh interests. But the old stuff tends to migrate to the back of the closet, out of sight. Since we have to pull everything out anyway to account for it in our inventory, why not use this opportunity to designate lesser-used items for sale? Not only does this save space and simplify inventory control, but those extra dollars can go into future purchases for new things we need. Make Plans for the New Year Once you have your 2025 under control, it's time to think about the coming year. Do you have a project that you've been thinking about? Now is the perfect time to sketch it out, add milestones, and set your goal. Is there a destination that you've wanted to photograph? December is a great time to research best times to visit, create budgets, and start discussions with your travel partner. Blocking out space on the calendar for your adventures and goals not only increase the likelihood of them materializing, but it also reveals the open spaces you have for other activities. It's a lot easier to agree to attend a family gathering in July when you know that month is open. Plus, what a great feeling to have events to look forward to. Final Thoughts Photographers living north of the equator may think of December as an uninspiring time of short, cold, days. But there's great opportunity to plant seeds for the coming year. Set aside some time to work on this checklist. And have a great 2026! December Checklist for Photographers Protect the Work You've Done - Test your backup system. Serial Numbers and Updated Insurance Riders - Account for your gear. Print Your Best Pictures - Create your device-independent archive. Identify the Gear That You're Not Using - Reclaim space and generate income. Make Plans for the New Year - Block out chunks of time for your craft.
