Sean, a former co host of More Than Megapixels, has asked that I react out to those who still pay attention to the site as he has a dream. He wants to relaunch More Than Megapixels. He will be the main host, but he does need 1-2 other people. It is preferred that the folks who sign up have some podcasting experience, but it is not necessary. There is one thing that is necessary, and that is a passion for photography. Knowledge of the ins and outs of photography and how cameras work would be an asset, but again, this is not required. If you feel this might be in your line of experience and you would like to take some time to do a podcast, please email us with more information about you!

Listener questions: Raseru writes: I have seen a new type of photo where its all black and white but one item that is red. Does this style have a name? Our answer: There is no one single word that describes this. The closest name for this I found was ‘Touch of Color’, which was used in the widely acclaimed movie Schindler’s List. If you want to know how to do it, there are many tutorials using different methods, just search Google!
