New Nikon Cameras
Nikon is starting to announce some of its new cameras for 2011. The new lot consists of only point and shoots. Hopefully some new DSLR's will be coming next (D400 or D800?)

Photography Podcasts
I recently started listening to podcasts. I know that they are nothing new but I was never a big iPod user (despite owning one) and I never took the time until recently to get into podcasts.
I highly recommend the Android app Beyond Pod for finding and listening to podcasts. I use the free version but there is also a premium version. While I have put some other categories of podcasts into my "queue", photography podcasts are the main ones that I listen to.
My recommended listens are as follows and not really in any particular order:
Photofocus - The host of this show is Scott Bourne and is a Q&A show that is a must listen for beginners. Scott normally has a guest host as well and past guests have included Tamara Lackey and Scott Kelby to name just a couple.
The Digital Photo Experience - Hosted by two excellent photographers, Juan Pons & Rick Sammon. They do some Q&A and also some interviews and it is another highly recommended podcast.
The Pro Photo Show - Hosted by Gavin Seim, this is another nice podcast that is usually quite lengthy but only airs about once a month. Gavin is usually joined by a panel of guests and topics vary greatly but are always interesting and photography related.
This Week in Photo - Known as TWIP this is another quality podcast, that similar to Gavin's podcast, deals with a wide range of photography topics. It is also usually a round table type photography show.
There are a few others that I would like to mention that I don't listen to as religiously but have found to be good listens: Camera Campus, Camera Dojo, and The Digital Story just to name a few.
Anyone even remotely interested in photography should check these out. I would also encourage everyone to search out photography podcasts and share a link if they find a good one that I have not mentioned. If you don't have an iPod or smart phone many if not all of these podcasts are able to be heard on their respective websites. Enjoy!
