WIN CLIENTS. BOOK FASTER. GET PAID. STAY ORGANIZED. TRY HONEYBOOK!


Nikon has finally entered the serious mirrorless camera market with two new full frame cameras - the Nikon Z6 and Z7.

This is actually pretty exciting news for the world of mirrorless photography and Sony now has a serious competitor in this segment. But will the new Nikon cameras stop current FF DSLR shooters from flocking over into the Sony a7 and a9 camp?

For an in-depth discussion about the new Nikon Z6 and Z7 and their advantages and disadvantages in comparison to the respective Sony cameras, Marco has invited back mirrorless camera expert Mathieu Gasquet (Mat) co-founder of Mirrorlessons.com. Mat was at the Nikon Z press event in London and shares his hands-on experience with the new cameras.

Marco announced that the collaborative street photography book: “Streetfotografie made in Germany” is now shipping. Marco is one of the authors and has written the introduction to this book. The book is currently available only in German and can be ordered at:

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO CREATE A PROFESSIONAL WEBSITE

WIN CLIENTS. BOOK FASTER. GET PAID. STAY ORGANIZED. TRY HONEYBOOK!


Landscape photography - how to capture amazing images of nature that captivate the viewer - with Nick Page.

This is episode #17 of the Camera and Inspiration show at “PPN - Photo Podcast Network” for August 2018.

This episode is sponsored by:
Portfoliobox.net - Everything you need to create a professional website.

and

https://bit.ly/2sAyZIv


  • Nick is a pro photographer for sports & concerts and an amazing landscape photographer from Washington State. He also travels the world talking and teaching photography on his workshops. Some of our listeners may already know his  online tutorials about landscape photography. And last but not least he is also a fellow podcast host and can be heard on “The Landscape Photography Podcast.”
 
  • Nick shares his interesting and surprisingly recent career start as a pro photographer and gives great advice on how you can excel at what you do if you spend your time wisely on learning a craft or skill.
 
  • Chris picked Michael Shainblum as the PPN inspirational photographer of the month. Michael is a truly amazing landscape, timelapse and aerial photographer based in San Francisco. He is an artist and a successful commercial photographer and has worked for clients including Nike, Apple, Google, and Samsung. Check out his stunning timelapse videos and landscape photos on his website: http://www.shainblumphoto.com

Inspirational Photo Book Pick of the Month:

“Ansel Adams: 400 Photographs”

Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2w4Vc3j  
B&H: https://bhpho.to/2BK09nA

Marco thinks that this is a book that belongs in a photo book collection because Ansel Adams was one of the greatest photographers of all times. But also because it chronologically shows his development as an artist. You can see how over time he looked into photographing different subjects like people, architecture, and plants but he never lost the passion for his nature landscape photos in B&W. And it shows i.e. different interpretations of Half Dome photos over the decades.
The book has  440 pages and weighs 4.4 pounds or about 2kg.

The new Fuji XF10, a Nikon FF camera, Wide and Tele lenses, Sony, Olympus, Panasonic are some of the topics that Marco and Mat discuss on episode #17 of the “We Shoot Mirrorless” podcast for August 2018.

  • Marco invited mirrorless camera expert Mathieu Gasquet (Mat) co-founder of Mirrorlessons.com
 
  • After testing many mirrorless cameras from different manufacturers, Mat gives his thoughts on the unique qualities and some of the shortcomings of Olympus, Sony, Fuji, and Panasonic cameras.


Mirrorless news of the month:

  • The Fuji XF10 is the newest compact camera from Fuji that seems to replace the now discontinued but highly praised by Marco X70 compact camera from Fuji. But is it a real update from the X70 or did Fuji make two steps back here?
B&H: https://bhpho.to/2Ms0FKJ   
Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2OBHV9a   


  • Fujifilm also officially announced the new Fujinon XF 8-16mm f2.8 R LM WR Lens and the XF 200mm f2 R LM OIS WR Telephoto lens. Both lenses, the XF 8-16mm on the wide and the XF 200mm on the tele side can be game changers for professional photographers using the Fuji system.

B&H: https://bhpho.to/2BfYEwU

Fujinon XF 200mm f2 R LM OIS WR Telephoto Lens
B&H: https://bhpho.to/2MnZaNV


  • Fuji added 3 new lenses to their roadmap. The XF16mm f2.8 (expected in 2019), XF 33mm f1.0 (expected in 2020), and XF 16-80mm f4 (expected in 2019).
 
  • Nikon is teasing the announcement of their full-frame mirrorless camera on August 23rd, 2018. The internet seems to be going crazy in expectation of this camera but is this hype justified or is Nikon late to the game?


Mirrorless question of the month:

Hi Marco, love the shows. I have a question that you might want to use on the show. I have a Fuji X-T1 and 18mm lens for my cityscape photography as a lightweight kit to take on work trips. However, I’ve always wanted an X100 and now the original ones are getting close to £300 - I’m tempted. So my question is, does the original X100 still have a place in 2018 as a travel and street camera.
Further to this, I was going to use the X100 for my black & white work (which I hear people say the old sensor is better? Or gives a different look?). And I want to use it for my long exposure photos, so autofocus speed isn’t really an issue. Many thanks!
Question by: Ben from England


  • 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. You can also submit an image using the Instagram hashtag #WeShootMirrorless
 
  • We have picked our monthly featured photographer and image from the submitted photos. Our monthly We Shoot Mirrorless feature photo and photographer of the month is: John Morrell - Title: A Leap In The Dark (click here).

And if you decide to buy Skylum’s Luminar or Aurora HDR 2018 software, you can use the discount code “PHOTOPODCASTS” for extra savings at checkout.


Here are the questions that Marco answers in this episode:

1. Hi Marco, why do you shoot with wide angle lenses for street or documentary photography? It seems so much easier to work candidly with a longer lens since you don’t have to get so close to your subject. And the chances of “getting caught” seem to decrease the longer the focal length of the lens is. Thanks!
Question from: Mateo, Barcelona, Spain



2. Hi Marco, I’ll be going on a safari to Tanzania with my family in the fall and I would like to know which camera and lens I should bring. I own a Nikon D5300 body and lenses between 12 - 300mm as well as a Sony Alpha 99 II with a few lenses below 200mm. I need a longer zoom around 400mm. Which camera body should I get the tele zoom for and should I rent or buy a cheap one?
Question from: Oliver, Hamburg, Germany

Products discussed in the answer:

Tamron 100-400mm F/4.5-6.3 Di VC USD
B&H: https://bhpho.to/2AOw1Xs

3. How do extension tubes, such as the Kenko brand, work? Also, do they affect the sharpness of the image?
Question from: Peter, Melbourne, Australia
