A big thanks to ThinkTank for sponsoring this month's show.

In this episode James and Marcus are in the studio discussing the latest photography stories in the news, including why some church vicars are lashing out at wedding photographers. We're asking if there is any point to camera straps, debating if modern cameras make photography too easy (including getting your views on the subject), and deciding if the world really needs a super long tripod plate, a new f/1.2 lens, a chest strap for your camera and more!

PLUS we are giving away a ThinkTank camera bag!
