This week in an extra episode, Mark Seymour joins me to talk about his travel to India, the zines and books he’s made and some folks he’s met along the way.

More about this show:

A camera is just a tool but spend enough time with photographers and you’ll see them go misty eyed when they talk about their first camera or a small fast prime that they had in their youth. Prime Lenses is a series of interviews with photographers talking about their photography by way of three lenses that mean a lot to them. These can be interchangeable, attached to a camera, integrated into a gadget, I’m interested in the sometimes complex relationship we have with the tools we choose, why they can mean so much and how they make us feel.

Hamish Gill is a photographer, entrepreneur and founder. For over a decade he has run 35mmc, a website about film photography started, as you’ll hear, because of a 35mm compact camera that inspired him. Hamish loves image making shooting digital, film and tons of vintage lenses so was an ideal Prime Lenses guest.
