Due to popular demand, we share our thought on claims that the M4/3 system is dead. Marco invited Scott Bourne back on the show to step on their virtual soapbox and discuss some of the claims about the demise of the M4/3 system now that so many new Full-Frame mirrorless camera systems have entered the market. And in the second half of the show, they cover some mirrorless news, a mirrorless listener question, and pick the mirrorless photographer and photo of the month.
This show is sponsored by: COSYSPEED - The fastest camera bags in the world. http://bit.ly/STREETOMATIC Skylum Luminar3 - The cutting edge photo editor http://bit.ly/PPN-Luminar3 The claim “Micro Four-Thirds is dead, ranks pretty high on the clickbait charts these days, but there are plenty of facts and arguments that contradict these claims. For example, some people may see the introduction of the Full-Frame S1 camera system by Panasonic LUMIX as proof, that Panasonic will abandon their M4/3 camera system. While looking at Fuji and Sony who run two complete camera systems with different sensor sizes successfully next to each other, such a move can simply be seen as a move to grow market share catering to more photographers. Besides that, different sensor sizes do have certain advantages over the other and some of these are covered in this episode. Some cameras and lenses matching this conversation: Olympus OM-D E-M1X B&H: https://bhpho.to/2CEmWhH Panasonic LUMIX G9 B&H: https://bhpho.to/2Jy9B0u Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2KxmzJy Panasonic GH5 B&H: https://bhpho.to/2JQLhr1 Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/31t1AP4 Olympus ED 300mm f4 IS PRO lens B&H: https://bhpho.to/2JQ4kBB Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2yOsSTB Panasonic Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 50-200mm f2.8-4 ASPH O.I.S.

The upgraded second version of this camera has improved in especially in the speed and usability department. A huge rear LCD and higher resolution EVF next to quicker start-up time and less blackout time between shots. Marco was also really impressed by the new USB-C option to tether the camera directly to your iPad Pro and run Hasselblad’s Phocus 2 app as an instant preview and editing extension to your workflow. And another nice fact about the camera is that the price has been reduced considerably compared to the release price of the previous version. B&H: https://bhpho.to/2ZLIOlG Hasselblad CFV II Scott and Marco have fond memories of working with their analog V500 Hasselblad systems. And now Hasselblad revives the system with the CFV II 50C digital back. It attaches to old analog V500 cameras and turns them into a digital medium format camera system. But with the addition of the new tiny 907X body, the CFV II tunes into a very compact medium format camera for the new Hasselblad XCD lens system. And conveniently, that setup allows for autofocus, too. Hasselblad 907X Special Edition B&H: https://bhpho.to/2ZPYrZ4 Olympus Tough TG-6 Camera Summertime is rugged camera time and Olympus added some improved features to this latest iteration of the TG-system that Marco and Scott discuss.

Mirrorless question of the month: What’s your views on attracting birds for photography? For me bating is out of the question but what about calling birds with your phone with an app is that acceptable? Question by: Rick, Toronto, Canada Marco adds a mirrorless component to the question: What are Scott’s two suggested bird photography setups right now? 1.

Episode summary: How can you deal with mixed lighting situations in a location and avoid different color casts in your images? What is lens diffraction, when does it occur, and should you even worry about it? And an alternative to Photomechanics for quickly sorting through your images.
Please submit your photography related questions to us here: http://www.photopodcasts.com/contact.html This episode is sponsored by: COSYSPEED - The fastest camera bags in the world. http://bit.ly/STREETOMATIC Skylum Luminar - The cutting edge photo editor http://bit.ly/PPN-Luminar3 Here are the questions that Marco answers in this episode: 1. Hi Marco, I have been shooting my first events and weddings this year. I shoot in color and often with a flash. Most of the time the color and white balance on the subject is pretty spot on, but the background with artificial room light is sometimes completely off and looks distracting. How can I get more consistent results throughout the frame? Question from: Helen, Portland, Oregon Gear and apps discussed in this question: Rogue Gels Filter Kit (Set of 20): B&H: https://bhpho.to/2ZuHmnv Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2T5A5bs MagMod Professional Flash Kit: B&H: https://bhpho.to/2ZISYUd Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2MF2unx App with info for Gel Color Filters: Lee Swatch for iPhone: http://itunes.apple.com/app/id882232668 Lee Swatch for Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.leefilters.com 2. Hi Marco, when shooting landscapes in bright conditions, I usually step down my wide-angle lenses really far for a maximum depth of field. For example, the Fujifilm wide-angle lenses go down to f/22. However, I've heard of a quality impairing effect called diffraction which sets in at small apertures. What is this? Should I use f/22 at all? If not, what is your recommendation for landscapes and what is the purpose of f/22 on a lens? Question from: Peter, near Koblenz, Germany Links for this question: Lens Diffraction & Photography explained by Cambridge Color: https://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/diffraction-photography.htm What is Lens Diffraction by Expert Photography: https://expertphotography.com/lens-diffraction/ Update regarding PPN Q&A #14 - Topic: Photomechanic Hi Marco. I very much enjoyed this episode, which was full of good, real-life advice on interesting topics. I have an additional suggestion for the question on workflow from Victor, in Dayton, Ohio. I do a lot of amateur wildlife and sports event photography, and even a full day’s street shooting can generate hundreds of images to review. I have tried Photo Mechanic on a month’s free offer, but I also tried the Faststone Image Viewer, which is free for amateur or educational use. Photo Mechanic does a range of extra things as you described in the show, but Faststone works in the same way by showing just the embedded jpeg extremely quickly and letting you move or copy the good images for later ingestion by your raw processor, and for my purposes this meant I could save the £170 cost of Photo Mechanic. One tip common to both programs: the embedded jpegs aren’t very large files, so although they are both great for a quick scan to weed out poorly composed and exposed shots, I find critical sharpness needs checking in the full raw file, so only use them to chuck out obviously unsharp images. I hope that’s useful, especially for non-professional listeners. Update from: Mark, UK Link to Faststone Image Viewer (only for Windows): https://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm Please support our show by using our B&H affiliate link (click here) or Amazon Germany link (click here) that will not cost you a penny more than when you are buying at B&H or Amazon without our link.
