John will also sit down with one guest photographer who will offer insights, advice, industry knowledge, and participate in a photo critique of student images, and this month's guest is Ian Shive.

In this hour, John responds to questions about what type of camera to purchase for different types of photography, shutter speeds, and image clipping.
