CAMERA AND INSPIRATION #2 | PPN | May 30TH, 2017

On the "Camera and Inspiration" show, Scott and Marco talk about inspiration in photography and try to help you to take your camera out with more intent. On this episode they cover the following topics:

Marco picks this month inspirational photographer: Fan Ho (1931 - 2016) Chinese photographer, actor and film director. He is known as the Cartier-Bresson of the East. Please check out his amazing photographs here: http://www.fanhophotography.com/index.html
As Scott and Marco are both believers that a photo isn’t finished until it has been printed, they have decided on focus this episode to having your images printed by a pro lab.
Marco interviewed Marieke Goethe, PR Director of White Wall lab (www.WhiteWall.com). White Wall has just been awarded “Best Photo Lab Worldwide” by the TIPA awards 2017. White Wall also produces the limited art prints for the Lumas galleries (www.LUMAS.com). So with just a few steps, you can have your images produced in art gallery quality.
Scott's inspirational photo book of the month is called: William Eggleston “Guide”. The book contains the first color photographs that were accepted by the art world and displayed in many museums. The body of work contains images that may seem to document the banality of ordinary objects and daily life and can be an inspiration for anyone who thinks that there is nothing interesting to photograph in their neighborhood.

WE SHOOT MIRRORLESS #2 | PPN | May 10TH, 2017

On this “We Shoot Mirrorless” #2 podcast episode, Scott and Marco discuss these new products and mirrorless topics:

Scott returned from a workshop in Arizona and shares some AF tips for bird photography.
A bit of feedback from NAB
Sony introduces a new flagship mirrorless camera. The a9 is aimed at the pro sports photography market and has some impressive specs, but is that enough to win the pro market? We share our thoughts about it.
Sony introduces the new FE 100-400mm f4.5 - 5.6 GM OSS lens.
Fuji announced two new lenses for its GFX 50s mirrorless medium format camera. The GF 23mm f4 WR and GF 100mm f2 WR will ship in late June 2017.
Fuji also announced a new GF lens roadmap with a GF 45mm f2.8 WR for late 2017 and a telephoto prime as well as a teleconverter for 2018. The GFX will also receive a FW update to improve AF in difficult lighting situations and improve exposure compensation options.
Listener Michael shared a helpful product for Fuji X-Pro2 user who are affected by the “eyecup gate”. The company JJC produced aftermarket standard rubber eyecups for the X-Pro2 (EF-XPRO) and even a version for people who wear glasses (EF-XPROG).
Olympus introduced firmware updates for the E-M1 Mark II, E-M5 Mark II and PEN-F as well as some updates for lenses.
Panasonic also offers a FW update (v1.1) for the GH5 and introduced the Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 8-18mm f2.8-4 ASPH lens.
Ricoh showed off a 4K-capable Theta 360° camera at NAB that allows for live streaming as well as 4-channel mic to record surround audio.
Listener Laurence asked which mirrorless camera works best for indoor sports with fast moving action and bad light?
We have a PPN Photo Podcast Network group at Flickr (click link) that is open to our listeners and photos taken with all mirrorless camera brands. If you want to join just let us know through the "request invitation" button on the group and drop us a quick line there. We'll add you to the group then. And please ask for the invite via the web browser and not via the Flickr App. The invite process via the app has not been working reliably.
We have picked our monthly featured photographer and image from our Flickr groups. Our monthly We Shoot Mirrorless feature photo and photographer of the month is: Martin Griffett with his image “Shadows at Leith Hill.”
