On September 19, 2012, Corradino appeared on Inside Edition, showing correspondent Megan Alexander how a super telephoto lens could be used for extremely long distance photography. As Alexander stood on one side of the Hudson River in New York, Corradino positioned himself clear across the river in New Jersey and started taking photos. Even from such a distance, the photos were very sharp.[13]

Several of Corradino's instructional photography articles were translated and published in Russian.[14]
