Summary: <p> Today’s episode is about overcoming fears, about doing something you haven’t done before and about repairing a shutter. Chris also does a quick detour into photo history, talking about Prontor and Compur shutters and how they defined a standard that has been part of many cameras and still is even until today: the PC Sync port. Hear Chris and Nick Fancher talk about his new book <em>Studio Anywhere 2: Hard Light</em> – they talk about reducing gear, getting visually stunning results from small flash and learning to get more out of the things you already own. </p> <p style="padding: 5px;"><a style="color: #687ac4; font-family: roboto; font-size: 12px; display: block; margin-left: 6px; margin-right: 6px; margin-top: 6px; text-decoration: none; background: #fff; border-color: #687ac4; padding: 10px 20px 10px 20px; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle;" href="http://www.tipsfromthetopfloor.com/get-tfttf-updates-via-email/">RECEIVE EMAIL FOR NEW EPISODES</a></p> <p><strong>Links:</strong></p> <ul> <li> <a href="https://cloudspot.io/" target="_blank">SPONSOR: Cloud Spot – crazy fast photo delivery.
