We Shoot Mirrorless #7 | PPN | October 13th, 2017

Picture



On this episode #7 “We Shoot Mirrorless” podcast episode for October 2017, Scott and Marco discuss these new products and mirrorless topics:

This show is sponsored by B&H: bit.ly/bhphotodeals

  • Scott has bought the iPhone 8 Plus and tells us what he thinks about the camera and features. https://bhpho.to/2ziapxR
 
  • After using the Olympus TG-5 for a month, Scott shares how he likes using this camera. https://bhpho.to/2hrPQLi
 
  • GoPro announced the new Hero 6 Black camera. The action camera now features 4K 60P video, 12MP Photos at 30 fps, has enhanced dynamic range, improved image stabilization and better low light performance. https://bhpho.to/2AxUmvA
 
  • GoPro also added a cool new 360° action camera to their setup. The GoPto 5.2K 360° Fusion camera captures 18MP still images with a 360° field of view. It has a gimbal-like image stabilization and 360° microphone built in. And the overcapture mode creates some really cool effects. https://shop.gopro.com/cameras/fusion/CHDHZ-101.html
 
  • Fuji adds two new lenses to their GFX medium format camera lens lineup. The GF 45mm f2.8 R WR and GF 80mm  f2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro lens both feature Dust & Weather sealing and have Nano GI coating. The 80mm Macro has a 1:1 magnification and also features a Fluorine coating on the front element to make it less prone to smudging - a feature that we would like to see on all lenses in the future. GF 45mm f2.8 R WR:  https://bhpho.to/2hqvhPp​  and GF 80mm  f2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro: https://bhpho.to/2AvEidR​
 
  • Fuji is running a GFX promotion in Europe. Save up to EUR 1.300 if you purchase a GFX plus lens between October 1st, 2017 and January 15th, 2018. And this time you don’t have to trade in a qualifying camera. https://bhpho.to/2hrPK6B
 
  • Fujifilm will soon offer a software called Fujifilm X Raw Studio that will enable you to use the nice in-camera Raw to jpg engine from your Mac or PC when you attach the camera via USB to your computer. The software should be available in late November, 2017. http://www.fujifilm.com/news/n170907_08.html
 
  • Profoto is expanding their Air Remote TTL and HSS capable wireless flash transmitters to work with many mirrorless cameras. They now offer versions for mirrorless Olympus, Sony and are about to release a version that works with Fuji cameras. https://bhpho.to/2AwwKI0
 
  • Sony has released a FW update for their a9 mirrorless camera. FW version 1.10 improves image quality and fixes some problems like disappearing RAW images when transferring images to certain smart phones. https://www.sony.com.au/electronics/support/e-mount-body-ilce9-series/ilce-9
 
  • Marco shares a feature from the Nikon D850 that he would like to see incorporated in future mirrorless cameras, too. Nikon offers a film scan adapter that not only allows you to scan your film negatives in high quality with a single exposure, it also converts the negative image into a positive straight inside the camera. Two thumbs up from Marco for this feature.​ https://bhpho.to/2htT3u3


Mirrorless question of the month:
Hi Scott and Marco, I am a long time listener of your podcasts and have made the full switch from Nikon DSLR’s to Fuji mirrorless cameras (sorry Scott) ;) last year. I’m currently using a Fuji X-T2 and X-T 20 and have the XF 50-140mm f2.8 lens for my zoom work. Inspired by Scott’s recent PPN - More Gear Show episode about TC’s, I am now considering the purchase of a 1.4x or 2x TC. But a photographer friend has told me, that TC are not a good idea on crop sensor cameras, as there is already an artificial crop happening on the sensor. And the IQ will degrade drastically stronger than on a cropped FF camera. He suggests that I’d rather invest in the Fuji XF 100-400mm f4.5 - 5.6 lens. What do you think?

Thanks so much for all of the great shows each month!
