Great music and very interesting but spoilt with sub-titles.

Only caught the last 10 mins of the show and great insight into the medium and large format cameras. The Holga certainly produced interesting images

I thought it was quite interesting.

Taught me a bit about a type of photography I have no idea about (medium and large format).

I assume part two will be next week?

Without subtitles, wouldn't have understood half the doco. Personally I prefer subtitles over dodgy Ah-meh-ree-kaaan dubs.
