Ross’s Blog
I’m a notebook kind of guy. I have notebooks filled with notes, ideas and thoughts and I thought it was about time that I put the contents of these notebooks out into the world… in blog form.
Keep one eye on this blog page for some ideas, advice, experiences, thoughts, exclusives, links, inspirations, lists and maybe the odd rant or two… mostly about photography. Have a read and if you learn something, why not come back and drop a little something in the Tip Jar. It would make my hard work all the more worthwhile!
Getting Started With LUMIX LUTs
If you haven’t tried shooting LUTs with a LUMIX camera yet, I couldn’t recommend it enough. It’s just about as much fun as you can have with photography.

In-Camera RAW Processing With LUTs
If you’re nervous to make the jump to shooting JPEGs with your camera, now you don’t have to be. LUMIX has provided this simple and effective back-up/safety feature that allows you to get the exact look you were going for, even if you don’t nail it the first time…

Lens Choices for the LUMIX S9…
I made a Reddit account recently and one comment about the S9 that keeps popping up is that there are no compact lens options for this camera. I took this opinion as a bit of a challenge and decided to go on the hunt to find the best, most compact lens setup for my full-frame LUMIX S9 - so let’s talk lenses…
My First Film Camera, Yashica Electro 35 GTN
The Yashica Electro 35 GTN is quite a big camera in comparison to other rangefinders. It’s also on the cheaper side which is a plus. They can be really unreliable (like all film cameras) but if you get a good one like I did, you’re in for a treat…
Should I Buy The LUMIX S9?
Name another full-frame camera, under £1000, that you can load your own LUTs into, that’s small, lightweight, can shoot LOG, 6K Open Gate, with great Image Stabilisation, battery life and overall bangin’ quality…
Thoughts On The Fujifilm X100
Now that it’s 14+ years since the 12MP original X100 was released, one question lingers in my head. Will I ever upgrade my original Fujifilm X100 to one of the newer models???
