In my sig is the Links sticky. There are about 20 podcasts listed there. My favorites are The Russell Brown Show, Radiant Vista, Lightroom for Digital Photographers.

Just to chime in, I've been watching Tips from the Top Floor w/ Leo Laporte and Chris Marquardt, and it's a pretty bad podcast for how popular it seems to be (it's on XM radio and pretty high ranking on iTunes). The host never really explains any of his answers, and they're almost too basic for any real advice.

Isn't that TWIT (This week in tech)? I didn't know they did any photography stuff.

Not sure, I've heard about TWIT but never listened to it.

Tips from the Top Floor is a separate podcast and certainly sounds like it's its own show. Available from iTunes. But yeah, like I said, the host goes over topics worth talking about, but he does nothing to really expound on the answer.

I listened to him talk with Leo Laporte for about 5 minutes on his RAW episode, and he basically said, for 5 minutes -- "shoot RAW, you can manipulate settings afterwards, you don't lose any image data shooting RAW, on the downside, RAW takes up more space. I shoot RAW most of the time."

Another episode regarding expensive glass -- "I can't justify spending that much on glass. If you make money from your photos then go for it but otherwise, I usually buy the mid-range stuff. It's better built." Nothing really more detailed than that.

To be fair, I haven't listened to more than 3 or 4 episodes, but I don't care to follow through with more.

You mentioned Leo Laporte who is the guy who does the TWIT podcast. So I think got I got confused, Top Floor seems to be an offshoot from TWIT or something like that.

I'm listening to them now, so far so good, I'm enjoying it.

Thank you for posting it.

For Photoshop users, Photoshop Killer Tips is OK. Their primary virtue is that they are short, and every so often you do learn something new.
