Tog-Talk Episode 29
With this week's guest David Emery
In the first Tog-Talk podcast to be shot in video (Watch it on YouTube or Vimeo), Kevin Ahronson interviews David Emery, a photographer he has known for four years.

David shares his journey into photography, which began with inspiration from his grandfather who had a cine camera and a 35mm camera. David got his first SLR, a Praktica, on his 14th birthday and started with film photography before transitioning into digital photography. Over the years, he used various cameras, including Canon's 350D DSLR and later the Canon 80D. He eventually adopted the mirrorless trend with the Canon EOS R.

David is a generalist photographer, not bound to a specific niche. He enjoys capturing moments and candid shots.
His technical knowledge on cameras has grown significantly over time, and he credits Kevin's masterclass for enhancing his understanding of the process of taking a photo.
