This show is loaded with mirrorless news and hands-on experience with some of the new cameras. For this show, Marco has invited back his friend, journalist, and reviewer of cameras and photographic equipment Angela Nicholson. She is also the co-founder of CameraJabber.com
This show is sponsored by: Skylum Luminar3 - The cutting edge photo editor http://bit.ly/PPN-Luminar3 and COSYSPEED - The fastest camera bags in the world. http://bit.ly/Streetomatic Fuji X-T30 - Fuji has introduced the replacement for the X-T20. The new X-T30 gains some features of the top of the line X-T3, like the 26.1 MP BSI sensor, the AF-joystick, and a faster AF. But some features as lacking from the big brother like the second SD-card slot, the high res EVF, and the dedicated ISO dial. Angela has used the camera and shares her experience with it. Fuji X-T30 B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IpXtPa Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2NnJPLr Fuji announced the XF 16mm f2.8 lens. This lens is a much smaller and lighter version of the XF 16mm f1.4 lens. Its built quality is similar to the XF23, 35, and 50mm f2 range of lenses and at about 40% of the weight and 40% of the price of the XF 16mm f1.4 this lens may be worth a second look if you like to add a classic 24mm field of view lens to your bag. Fuji XF 16mm f2.8 R WR lens B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IoZb36 Fuji has also announced the GF 100-200mm f5.6 LM OIS WR tele-zoom lens for the Fuji GFX medium format camera. This lens will yield an EFV of 80-160mm in FF terms. Fuji GF 100-200mm f5.6 R LM OIS WR B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IoleXO In April, Fuji will offer a FW update for the X-T3. FW 3.0 will improve the AF speed and face & eye-detection accuracy. A new face-select AF option, when you have multiple faces in the screen, will also be added. Panasonic has released the final specs of the Lumix S1 and S1R full frame cameras. Marco has used a pre-production review unit of the S1R for a couple of days and shares the specs and some info on the usability and purpose of this camera. Panasonic Lumix S1 B&H: https://bhpho.to/2Ip0pLK Panasonic Lumix S1R B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IoT9zJ To go along with the new Lumix S1 cameras, Panasonic has also released three new lenses for the new L-mount. The S PRO 50mm f1.4, the S 24-105mm f4 Macro O.I.S., and the S PRO 70-200 f4 O.I.S. lens. Each lens fills an interesting niche in terms of focal length, weight, features, and price. Panasonic Lumix S PRO 50mm f1.4 lens B&H: https://bhpho.to/2InALHr Panasonic Lumix S 24-105mm f4 Macro O.I.S. lens B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IqOopm Panasonic Lumix S PRO 70-200mm f4 O.I.S. lens B&H: https://bhpho.to/2Ip0FdG Canon has countered the trend of making new mirrorless full frame cameras larger and introduced the compact entry-level EOS RP with a 26 MP sensor. B&H: https://bhpho.to/2Ir5Rho Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2Vdcbux And Canon will bring out these 6 new RF-mount lenses in 2019: RF 85mm F1.2 L USM RF 85mm F1.2 L USM DS RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM RF 15-35mm F2.8 L IS USM RF 70-200mm F2.8 L IS USM (super compact!) RF 24-240mm F4-6.3 IS USM Angela shares her hands-on experience with the new Olympus OM-D E-M1X camera and for whom this camera has actually been made. Olympus OM-D E-M1X camera B&H: https://bhpho.to/2CEmWhH Sony has announced the a6400 APS-C that replaces the a6300. The compact 24 MP camera has been pimped with a processor and AF system that Sony claims is the world’s fastest autofocus. And with the speed, they have also added real-time eye AF and real-time tracking. This APS-C camera sounds like the cropped version of an a9, but we are wondering if the rangefinder style shape is really appealing for whom this speedy APS-C camera is targeted at? Sony a6400 camera B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IDRpmr Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2SeBF8D Angela has tried and then bought the DJI Osmo Pocket camera with its built-in gimbal and 12MP photo and 4k60p video at 100Mbps feature. DJI Osmo Pocket camera B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IscOi4 Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2TZVWR0 Mirrorless question of the month: Hi! I mostly shoot weddings and families with a Nikon D750 and have an X-T10 for fun. I want to switch completely to the Fuji X-T2. There are other mirrorless brands but they just don’t interest me and I don’t want full frame due to the size of the lens. The one thing that is holding me back is the time between shutter actuation on the X-T10. I know Marco uses the X-T2 and was curious if he has noticed it on that camera. The X-T10 has a slight delay between shots and would not work in my professional work. Thanks in advance and I love all of your podcast. Question by: Shaun, Indiana, USA

This book is published by TASCHEN and it has 472 pages. ISBN 978-3-8365-5282-0 Price: €60 / $70 TASCHEN (international): http://bit.ly/PLtaschen Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2SqffXg “Fashion photographers are the new painters” - Peter Lindbergh Peter Lindbergh’s image of five young models, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Tatjana Patitz, Cindy Crawford, and Christy Turlington in downtown NY made the cover of the British Vogue in 1990 and it started a new trend in fashion photography and created a new understanding of female beauty. His black and white film images are raw and alluring. They show character, tell stories but are romantic at the same time. This triggered new ideas for the fashion and art world. After the high-gloss and make-up overkill era of the 1980s, - the back then fairly unknown Lindbergh chose a simple and natural “back to the roots” style with his images. And at first, he was turned down by magazines. But he was very persistent and eventually the new Zeitgeist and potential of this style was realized and created his breakthrough in 1990. Marco likes this book because it is a collection of 40 years of Lindbergh’s work and it shows the influence that he has had on the fashion industry. His grainy B&W images leave a lot of room for the character, the natural beauty and the soul of the model and turned the fashion that was advertised into a by-product or accessory in the background. According to Marco, this book belongs into a good photo book collection.

USE THE DISCOUNT CODE "PHOTOPODCASTS" AT CHECKOUT FOR EXTRA SAVINGSCharge more with a bigger camera, electronic or manual shutter, L-bracket love, and matching prints to clients lighting conditions - are the PPN listener questions that Marco answers on this episode. This is the PPN - Q&A podcast episode #21 for February 2019. Please submit your photography related questions to us here: http://www.photopodcasts.com/contact.html This episode is sponsored by: Skylum Luminar 3 - Supercharge your image editing and organizing http://bit.ly/PPN-Luminar3 Here are the questions that Marco answers in this episode: 1. Hello Marco, I have a gear and marketing related question for you. I am working part-time as an event and wedding photographer. On my jobs, I use a Fuji X-T2 and a Fuji X-Pro 2 with prime lenses. My clients are always satisfied with the results that I deliver. But especially at weddings I often see guests with much bigger and more expensive DSLR cameras taking pictures as well. And sometimes I get asked if I plan on upgrading to a pro camera any time, soon - or similar questions. I know that my images are good, but do you think that it would help to upgrade to a larger kit in order to look more professional and maybe charge more money for my jobs in the future? Question from: Steve, Hong Kong Gear discussed in this question: Battery grips for Fuji: B&H: https://bhpho.to/2SvvvFl Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2RNOK92 Battery grips for Olympus: B&H: https://bhpho.to/2SvFfPX Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2Gc89yV Battery grips for Panasonic: B&H: https://bhpho.to/2SyEENE Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2RIKrf9 Battery grips for Sony: B&H: https://bhpho.to/2SyF8mW Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2UGO3ju Battery grips for Canon: B&H: https://bhpho.to/2SChhm6 Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2TAacjj Battery grips for Nikon: B&H: https://bhpho.to/2SxvBwh Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2DbFoOY 2. Hi, could you please elaborate on the difference between the electronic vs. the mechanical shutter. When should you and when should you not use the different kinds of shutter? Question from: Vincent, Long Beach, California 3. Hi Marco, what is the point of using an extra L-bracket or L-plate with a tripod? I can simply turn the ball head on my tripod by 90° to move from landscape to portrait orientation. Thanks! Question from: Christian, Copenhagen, Denmark Gear discussed in this question: L-brackets for different cameras B&H: https://bhpho.to/2MQuLp7 Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2SfzeaL 4. I’m having a hard time judging the true color of my printed photos. I have a calibrated LCD monitor and a calibrated ICC workflow. The images come out in my studio the way I want, but when I bring them to hang at a customers house or display them at a coffee shop, they often have a different color tint. How can I avoid this?
