Hard Truths and Hot Takes with Scott Kelby and Erik Kuna | The Grid Ep 690

Author: Kelby Media Group May 7, 2026 Duration: 1:07:22
It’s a packed episode of The Grid, with Scott Kelby and Erik Kuna kicking things off with a look at finalists from the recent Lightroom Conference photo contest, plus Erik’s shots from the Sun ’n Fun Air Show—including some creative light painting with an iPhone. From there, the conversation turns to some honest takes on gear and workflow, from the Leica “weight” debate to PC vs. Mac performance in Lightroom (with a surprise call from Adobe’s Terry White), along with thoughts on shooting JPEG vs. RAW and why adding Photoshop to your workflow can make a big difference. Fun, opinionated, and full of real-world insight. This Week's Sponsors: ON1 |  Platypod | KelbyOne

For anyone who lives and breathes images, The Grid: Photography Podcast serves as a weekly, unfiltered conversation straight from the industry's heart. Hosted by the team at Kelby Media Group, this audio-only version captures the spontaneous energy of their live talk show, transforming it into a portable dialogue for photographers on the move. The discussion revolves squarely around the craft, business, and culture of photography, with deep dives into tools like Photoshop and the ever-shifting landscape of professional practice. What sets this podcast apart is its interactive, community-driven roots; though you're listening after the fact, you're hearing real-time reactions and questions that shaped the episode's direction. Each installment brings a fresh perspective, featuring a different guest-whether joining in-studio or remotely-to unpack specific techniques, creative philosophies, or pressing news. The result is a candid, often opinionated, and always informative exchange that feels like pulling up a chair at a busy studio table. It’s less a formal lecture and more a gathering of peers debating gear, dissecting trends, and sharing hard-won insights. Tuning in provides not just technical knowledge, but a genuine sense of connection to the wider photographic community, all packaged in a convenient audio format for your commute or editing session.
