The podcasts are always good but I had to comment that if your using power banks, this episode is going to get you thinking about your power alternatives. Now my decision is 300 or 1000. Good episode Derek.

One of my favorite podcasts.

Derrick publishes a very informative and upbeat podcast every Tuesday - just like clockwork. He’s a professional photographer and educator rolled into one. I became a Patreon supporter to help Derrick continue to contribute fresh ideas everything week. Highly recommended.

Although we’ve never met, It seems like Derrick is the good neighbor you look forward to chatting with (by way of his podcasts). Every week he transports us to a place he’s been scouting, an event he’s been supporting, or to the office in his studio. No matter where he is, be assured the delivery...Read full review »

Derrick Story not only has the best photography podcast for photo enthusiasts, but he’s also a podcasting pioneer with The Digital Story running for almost two decades now. Derrick’s approach to podcasting is to treat the listener as if they were a fellow member of a photo club, he talks with...Read full review »

Club photography can be very competitive and discouraging, but Derrick’s podcasts and inner circle are always positive and affirming while providing helpful advice and suggestions. This is undoubtedly due to Derrick’s kind and gentle personality. I always find his podcast inspiring!

Keeps my head in the photograph world even if I don’t is as active as before. Keeps being a relative podcast

Thanks for a great podcast that covers a wide variety of interesting and timely topics. In particular I appreciate his product reviews. It is great to hear unvarnished thoughts on a product. So many podcasters are shills and sound like there are reading the publicity release I look forward to it...Read full review »

My Tuesday post breakfast dose of Derrick always informs, entertains and inspires me. Delivered with a clear voice , a generous amount of knowledge and always with a cheerful tone it is one of the highlights of my week.
Keith. UK via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/09/22
Derrick is the absolutely one of the best , if not the best, photo podcasters ever. He isn’t one of these photographer podcasters who is looking to show off his work or push his photo workshops or products. He doesn’t push big and heavy ridiculous gear to gear snobs . He talks about many great...Read full review »

Derrick always provides great news and advice that are helpful for enthusiast photographers who want to improve their work and have more fun with photography. The podcast pays particular attention to the concept of “nimble photography,” which means making great photos with small, lightweight...Read full review »

Derek is so easy to listen to and I love how he is not stuck on any one brand of camera! Thank you for this great podcast on many different areas of photography!

I look forward to each weeks podcast. Derrick has a down to earth, friendly way of speaking.
Donbren via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/21/20
Derek always has up-to-date news on photographic techniques and equipment, and often focuses on smaller cameras like Micro 4/3. His podcast is particularly valuable for me as an Olympus user, but it also would be valuable if you shoot Sony or Fuji.For that matter, Derek provides valuable tips for...Read full review »

Great podcast with down-to-earth approach to photography topics and tips. Derrick makes you feel welcomed and as if you are sitting beside him (or now virtual) and having a great conversation. Highly recommended and enjoy the show!
Ray_7 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/19/20
Every week Derek Story has timely photography information to teach me something new or inspire me to get out and take interesting photographs.

Derrick brings his laid-back California style to this long-running series, with news updates on the photography scene, practical advice and tips, and a rational view of the often overheated photo rumours and trends that are so often overblown and partisan on other podcasts. Particularly good...Read full review »

I've listened to a lot of photographic podcasts, but this is one of the best one's out there; Derrick hits on all of the main news / photographic topics of the day and does it in a very... kind and rational manner. His honesty and low key approach is much appreciated.Read full review »

I don’t know how Derrick Story finds enough time in his day to do what he does! The amount of information about photography, printing and the photography industry that I have heard over the years on this show is staggering! Seeing things in a different perspective can get rid of the things that...Read full review »

Derricks podcasts are always worth listening to every week. Gosh I just counted that I've been a listener for at least 8 years!!!

Great topics, well produced, positive and informative! Derrick covers interesting topics. His positive attitude is refreshing. Listening is well worth the time spent.
k5kj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/05/18
Derrick Story has one of the longest running photography podcasts, and, in my experience, the best. It is consistently professional in its production, always chooses currently important subjects, and displays a sense of humor and self-effacement sadly lacking in a lot of online personalities. ...Read full review »

Do you ever wish you had a good friend who was an expert in photography to give you tips, advice and gear recommendations? That’s Derrick in a nutshell.
Jeremyv10 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/02/18
I listen to a bunch of photography podcasts, but I keep choosing more times this one and I really can't explain why...I guess the subjects tend to be more interesting than the other podcasts! Congrats!Read full review »

The digital story podcast is one of my “must listen” podcasts. It is both informative and entertaining. Derrick has a wonderful style that is more like sitting down with a good friend who is telling you about photography, rather than a “show”. This makes him very easy to listen to. Derrick refers...Read full review »
AdeRussell via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/26/18
I have probably subscribed and listened to every photography podcast out there and The Digital Story is the only one I continue to listen to and enjoy. The podcast is both informative and inspiring, and Derrick does a great job creating a sense of community with his listeners.
BigDog104 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/26/18
This is my #1 favourite podcast! Derrick covers a wide variety of photography topics and all genres. The podcast is interesting, informative and entertaining.

Derrick has a warm, West Coast personality which comes through in his podcasts. I enjoy the photography news he provides on the latest and greatest and his photo tips, where I nearly always learn something new.

I've been listening to this podcast for many years and I never get tired of it.

JohnF from CT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/18
This is not a “how to” but rather a dialogue of personal adventures with a camera. Often he reviews new products, cameras or software. I often come away with “I’m glad he thought of that.”
Fastidious1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/18
Derrick, host of the Digital Story Photography podcast, highlights all aspects of photography and more in this can’t miss podcast! The host and expert guests offer insightful advice and information that is helpful to anyone that listens!

There aren't many podcasts I listen to more than a few times, but I've been listening to this one every week for several years. I look forward to a new episode arriving every Tuesday, which it does without fail, and I listen on my otherwise dull bus commute to work. Derrick talks about...Read full review »

This is one of the few podcasts for which I listen every single episodes. It helps me to be a better, more open photograph. Just long enough episodes that make me think.

Shtick is getting old and D.S. decided he needed to embrace and own niches, so he's migrated to camera gear and software that most people/pros don't use, so he can differentiate himself and his marketing. (As he did with his 'Nimble Photographer' side-deal.) When he was involved...Read full review »
