I used to watch people like the Northrups, Thomas Weaton or Kai Wong, but it starts to be repetitive watching them all the time. Do you have any youtubers that are not cringe and add some value to this hobby?

    If you like pointing your lens up, Nebula Photos did good content on astro/DSO/starfield photography

    less and less do I watch photography related youtubers. Nowadays when I do I usually watch analog shooters and try to copy their colors in my digital editing. To that end, I recommend Serr, Willem Verbeeck and graincheck

    Grainydays, Grain check, and Willem Verbeeck are my favorites.

    I care less about gear or techniques, after college photo I didn’t want to hear any more about technique (but I love learning people’s story process), and I don’t care to stay up in gear like I used to.

    North Borders (Street and Cars)

    7th Era (Misc, Mood, and Analog)

    Hayden Pedersen (Misc and photo challenge)

    Although some of them are kinda sponsored by Sigma, these Australian dudes have a really nice way of approaching photography for young people. I used to love to watch them, since they also did many things together.

    All except those who make really specific tutorials on advanced stuff are useless, really. Except camera conspiracies because he’s naturally funny.

    I prefer to do searches for my actual gear and see who’s out there using it. It’s a nice way to get inspired without being told that you need to buy the latest and greatest stuff.

    A lesser-known one: Joshua Peg.

    I started watching him because I’ve got the same camera (Canon 250d). He strikes me as an earnest amateur who’s learning his ass off, and who wants to pass on some of that knowledge and encourage others.

    Ben Horne, Landscape, large format, film, slow.

    Brews n’ Views Relatively new “podcast”. A group of photographers looking a selection of work, drinking some beer, and talking about said work. I tend to skip the intro 30 minutes of banter and go straight for the photo talking.

    Courtney Victoria British landscape photographer making YT videos feels a bit overdone, but she manages a feeling of light heartedness that not many manage.
