Im glad to hear that you are doing better. It was a real bummer to see how down you were in that other video. Heres to a happy new year and new opportunities for you, the channel and the family!!!
a vulnerable video makes you human and that makes you real. It makes you one of us, man. Helping people find whats right for them with comparisons IS doing good. You're helping people. You've been doing good for a long time.
This video put just a massive smile on my face. It’s great to hear about positive news - we all need more of that. Also a big vote for the new channel name. The ethos of doing good with your camera speaks deeply to me and is one of my favourite aspects of your work.
Thanks Sam. It puts a smile on my face hearing it puts a smile on your face. 😀
Very happy for you that 2023 is shaping up to be a positive year, full of support, achievements and especially a new start for your youtube and professional projects. Your viewers will continue to follow you with pleasure and attention! Thank you for your videos and I wish you and your family all the best. I look forward to following your next adventures.
All the best man! Good to see you back and excited.
Really happy to hear this update! Rooting for you, your growth, this channel and more awesome videos. Thank you!
So heartened to hear that things are improving for you guys. Huge congratulations on the job, fantastic news. Very excited to see what comes from the channel, but most importantly, I hope you guys get a moment to enjoy the view now you’ve survived 2022.
Logo looks great
Glad to see things are getting better for you. That's awesome!
So great to hear that 2023 is off to a fantastic start for you! Congrats on everything!
Man alive, massive kudos for being bold, being vulnerable and continually being awesome. 2023 will be an amaze year for you and the family. Great news about the job mate!
Hope it was an amazing getaway. You're a top bloke, much respect and admiration from Australia!
Congratulations on the new job!! So happy for you! Wishing you and your family a great 2023!
Many congratulations on the the new job pal. Great to see you doing well, much deserved. Thanks again for all your work.
I think UA-camrs sometime don’t fully understand that we become a community. They might get it but not fully.
We are all pulling for you Andrew, the energy change from the video about 2022 is 180°. So happy to see you lighthearted and ready for a beautiful 2023! Cheers Andrew!
Dude honestly stoked to hear about your new opportunity! Not surprised, but so happy! 🎉 the humility and reflection you're showing is admirable. Can't wait to follow the new road 🤜💥🤛
Good on you Andrew, good luck to the future and God bless you and the family.
Good to see you with renewed optimism ! I am an old folower ( Old of 62 and old folllower as well heheh) and I wish you both the best experience along this year! Hurrah for the new Job, Andre!!! And Danae's place is lovely! Best wishes and hugs from Uruguay.
Great news on your job and the new channel. Always loved your content and really glad to see you back and feeling positive which is always good for the soul and health. Good luck and wishing every success 👍👍
Really enjoyed the update. Great to hear all the positive things happening. Love the new name and branding.
Wow Andrew! Sooo glad to see you happy again!!! Wish you and your beautiful family all the best! 💛
good to hear the good news. God bless!
Very happy for you, Andrew. Let’s rock 2023 and beyond!
Good to see exciting new things for you Andrew. What a positive time ahead with growth and projects to focus on.
I do agree with the incremental improvements in new cameras as times progresses. I’ve been seeing a lot of content where many photographers have realised that with the quality of cameras in the last 5 or more years, it’s even worthwhile to consider an older model camera (even if it’s just as a diversion) without giving up much, if any, photographic quality. Since most enthusiasts will share images online, it matters less if you have a 24mp, 36mp, 60mp or even a 16mp camera. Maybe you have a special use case for very high frame rate but a lot of us take just one photo at a time and we take time over getting that one frame right.
Faster, faster, faster, pixels, pixels, and more pixels aren’t going to make you a better photographer. In fact the opposite might help you photography. Slow it down to enjoy and work on your image making. I picked up a cheap Fuji X-E1 last year. It’s only got 16mp and it’s AF is clunky and it doesn’t have wifi or fancy features but gee it fun and captures nice image files. Pull the images up on my 4K 32 inch monitor beside those from my full frame Pentax K-1 (also an old camera now) or my newer Fuji, and it doesn’t really compete in the pixel peeping department, but for viewing online, nobody is going to see a difference. What people see is how well you created it. Not the camera. There have been few bad cameras in the last 5+yrs and unless you have a special or commercial use case, there’s no need to stay on the continuing upgrade treadmill.
Exactly!
Love the positive developments in your life - Cheers to new beginnings!
Andrew, I am sitting here smiling at my screen listening to you talk about all this good stuff 😀 You give so much and deserve the best things in this life. Onwards, my friend. Looking forward to the ride 💪🏼📷❤
I'm smiling thinking of you smiling :)
@@AndrewGoodCamera such a feel good channel, Andrew, it’s hard not to smile. You guys have a great break there. Love to you both ☺️
Love the next step of your lives! Will be following as before and really missed your photography-keep it comin!
That's great news to hear. Congrats on your new job. I really like the new channel format lately. Looking forward to new uploads from you.
I'm smiling right now, as I'm just catching up on your channel relaunch and the latest videos. Congrats on your better 2023 start, new job and everything else! G_d bless.
Very happy for all your good news, Andrew. Congrats!
I’m really happy for you guys, Andrew!
I’ve been quietly following your channel and views on camera, photography and Fuji gear for a long time now.
Can’t wait to see what the future brings.
¡Salud!

I bought a Hasselblad 500C from KEH in early 2020, which turned out to be broken. They accepted my return very apologetically, and as a gesture of goodwill, they gave me a 15% discount on a 500C/M + 80/2.8, which wasn't an insignificant amount of money. I like KEH and think they're a great sponsor to court.
So glad you’re back, and things are good! Several photography UA-cam accounts I follow have quit posting, so it was kinda sad.
So happy you guys are back on the map! Best of luck on life in California for the both of you! ❤
I always appreciated your detail and niche into highly detailed lived in environments.
I love being in both Northern and Southern California! I’m happy to hear you are working a full time “job” lol!
Look forward to seeing more as you move forward with new logo and look.
Good luck and wish you the best and hopefully we can do something together this year!❤
Wonderful news, Andrew! Congratulations and good luck with the new job. Enjoy your California vacation!
Happy for you 😊
Awesomeness, glad to hear about the fantastic rebound
Happy that you're getting back on your feet.
Many years I also used to have that philosophy "Happy Wife, Happy Life". Later learned that's just a recipe for disaster. If you're truly happy and at peace within, then hopefully she'll be happy as well. Others' happiness is not dependent on you and your happiness does not depend on how someone else is feeling. If it does, that's co-dependency. Best to you and your family.
I have found new peace and strength by serving my wife and making life wonderful for her my top priority. She already did this for me. It's just taken me awhile to catch-up. By serving and loving each other and making each other's happiness our top priority, our marriage has been thriving.
Glad to see you buddy. Enjoy your time in California and looking forward to picking up a hoodie.
Love KEH❤ Happy for you.
Happy for u!
Very happy to know that the things are improving. 🙂Looking forward for the new content on the channel. Cheers!
Congratulations on the new job! Excited to see where you take the channel this year.
I'm SO happy to hear things are looking up for you guys, and that you got a new job! Can't wait to see what you have in store for your new channel in 2023. To be honest, wasn't sure about the new Channel name at first, but it's grown on me. And really, it's the perfect name because it states what your mission is. Much success to you going forward.
This is how things should happen. People helping people. So nice to hear your story and how 2023 is already turning things around!
Andrew looking so forward to your upcoming content, wishing you great luck and all my 🙏🏻🙏🏻✌🏻
Two thumbs up on the new name and branding! Here's to a much better 2023!
Woooo Hoooo. Great to see you Andrew. Welcome back and I look forward to continuing to enjoy all your stuff.
Such Great News about the new job!! Congrats
You rock and I’m excited for your new beginnings!
What a great start to the day, seeing you back in good shape, optimistic. I'm so pleased things are turning around for you.
Thanks!
Glad to hear things have move in a "good" direction for you and your wife!
So much good news! I absolutely love the new channel name, it makes total sense. And that you found a new job through your community is just the icing on the cake.
Thank you!
There's goodness in the universe and also in cameras, mindfully used. Glad you're back.
Love the name. Go for it Andrew!
Rad update, I love your channel Andrew!
Love the branding and especially the name. Great choice and so happy for you and your family that things are working out.
Good luck with the new job and the new channel. Looking forward to the new content
Delighted for you - great news
Good luck buddy with moving forward.
Glad things are looking up for you guys. Many people praying for you.
Glad to see everything moving on in your life positively. Nice presentation Andrew.
Good to hear you news, Andrew. Pleased for you and Denae. Think your final chosen channel name is a good one. It enscapsulates what your about. Look forward to seeing your video content in 2023.
Great to see you back and well. Nice merch btw.
Great to see things better Andrew! Saying a big high from
The UK! Followed your channel from the start! Great to see you! Here’s to more and more gear 😅😅 and photography of course ❤
Even out the pull strings on your hoodie! It's driving me crazy.
Andrew Goodcamera DOES work. Always glad to hear from you, will look at your merch.
Hey Andrew, my best wishes with the rebranding. Looking forward to seeing what's next for the channel.
I'm glad you are doing better! 👍 I was thinking if you don't like your new channel name, Red Truck Travels is still available. 😉
sounds like you have an amazing start for 2023 already! feel excited for you and love the new channel name.
Thanks, my friend!
Great video and update!👏
it's great times, well done to you guys !
Seems like things are going in the right direction - good luck and Goodcamera!
Glad everything is working out, great channel name and potential!
Thanks, my friend
hi mate, the name is easy to remember and catchy right. It covers the ethos going forward, and yes happy wife happy life. Clearly you have some stories to tell in your facial expressions and photography journeys. I've only been here since the FujiFilm days and your motorbike or trips into the red stone mountain place. I can only imagine it will grow with your humble attitude and passion. Your photography is always unique and i didn't know about the adopted thing. I was adopted so i hear all your moves. be safe, God bless, and here's to your new channel journey.
Hoping you guys a good head start I will keep following you love this Channel by the way I'm from the Philippines
Looking forward to your new content!!!
Refreshing!!!
The first thing i saw in my laptop while opening , i am so excited. Great way to go.
Haha. I'm honored! :)
Keep going and doing good with your channel ! See y’a !
Congratulations brother 👍🏽
Much ❤ from Russia. Keep doing ya thing, Andrew! 👏
As soon as I read the new channel name it made perfect sense. Good one :)
Congratulations! 🙂
Congratulations on your job...
Recommendation: can you include photo information on the photos in your videos?
Like, camera + lens + iso/ss/aperture/focal distance?
Sheesh man. Sounds you went through the ringer. Glad you came through stronger.
Glad to see regular videos from you again Andrew! 🙌🏽
Hey Reggie. Thanks!
I'm so glad to hear so many positives have come Ito your lives recently. You appear so much more relieved than the last episode! Congratulations on the new job, and how wonderful that the lead came from a community member! Interesting new channel name, but it is starting to grow on me. I look forward to whatever is next!
In regard to equipment improvements, I'm mostly in agreement, with the exception of my latest purchase. I typically keep a camera a long time, (Minolta XG-M --> Minolta X-700 --> Nikon D70 -->Nikon D200 --> Fujifilm X-T3) But after only two years, I just bought a Fujifilm X-T5, There was absolutely nothing wrong with the X-T3. Its capabilities were way better than mine, and I loved using it. I just found as I approach my 70th birthday, my handheld images are not as steady as I'd like, so I made the jump to in-body image stabilization. This will probably be the last camera for a long time! (along with my X100V, which goes everywhere with me.)
Thanks for doing what you do. You and Matt Day here in Ohio are two of the most down-to-earth presenters I've seen. It is just comfortable watching, and even after almost 62 tears of being a mediocre photographer, I still learn things with every episode.
I would agree about having a stabilized sensor. My hands aren't the most stable either.
This was inspiring, super happy for you
Andrew, everything about this video makes me so happy. Excited for what’s next brother.
🙂 Thanks Scott
Greetings from old England Andrew, Denae and family. Congrats on the job and on the new channel. Wishing you all the very best for the future man 👍. ps. Gto to die for !!
Thanks! And yes, was drooling all over that thing. :)
Have been watching your channel a bit since I switched to Fuji last Christmas. Followed the emotional roller coaster when you announced the old channel is over (and your losses), and very happy for you for the new start and new job. Thanks to you, I have started looking for urban decay photos in my area, too! Also on GFX. (Flickr has a group called 'xpaned', which is quite delightful.) Anyway, the main purpose of this message is to ask, given your love for mfd and macro, have you looked at Voigtlander's 35mm macro (1:2) APD? If you have never used Voigtlander, their lenses are manual, fantastic, produce superb sunstars. Many Leica users used their M-mount lenses as a cheaper alternative. I started using them with my Sony, and may restart my journey with them. They have more M-mount lenses than X-mount, so that's another path. Fuji actually has an official M to XF adapter (just discovered that myself)!
Very happy for you, Andrew! You’re a class act.
My vote for a name would be AndrewGoodPHOTO. The gear is a means to an end. The end being better photos.
I'm so happy to hear that you have landed on your feet. I was down south a few weeks ago and totally kicked myself for not reaching out. Hope all the best going forward my friend.
George! I have been keeping track of you on IG. Definitely reach out next time
KEH is how I was able to get so many of the lenses I have now. Okay, that and the severance pay from my old job, but I was still incredibly happy to get my paws on most of the lenses I've wanted for years. I'll probably wind up using their services for those Olympus f1.2 lenses I've wanted for some time. (Although I will admit, I have waffled on the idea of the f1.2 Pro's due to their cost, and how what they offer for night photography could be acquired for just a touch more through a full frame camera)
Glad you're sticking around, and kudos for being so open :)
Small thing - personally I prefer "happy spouse, happy house". Relationships are partnerships, and everyone's happiness is valid and important :) (maybe I'm being pedantic, but it was a small but important shift for me and others I know).
Looking forward to the new content!
Onwards and upwards!
Das freut mich für dich!
