The Snappening - Wedding Photography PodcastEpisode 65: Nikon & Canon mirrorless: only losers use dual card slots :PHey Snappers! In this episode (we think it's one of our best), Thom has rectified his audio issues from last week.

You'll just have to listen to see how this debate goes... We also chat about leaving weddings part-way through speeches (awkies), shooting at UK hunting lodges, and what the best 'last song of the night' is (there's really no debating this...) 2019-07-0951 min
