EP114 Canon C50 and R6iii, Nikon Zr, DJI Mirrorless? The Random Photography Show

[00:00:00] Speaker A: It. [00:00:36] Speaker B: Hey, everybody, welcome back to the Camera Life podcast. This is the random photography show. It is the 8th of September, 2025 and you're watching the camera life podcast, episode 115. Oh, my lord. We've been busy. And if you've been paying. We have. If you've been paying attention. The last. The last few nights we've been extra busy with Beef up booking shenanigans. We've been holding Beef up booking parties for the Bright Festival of Photography, which is taking place, what, early October in about four weeks in Bright in Country Victoria. So we're certainly looking forward to heading there. But this is the random photography show and of course it wouldn't be the same without being joined by a few memorable people, let's just put it that way. First and foremost, we're joined by Greg Carrick. G', day, Greg. [00:01:25] Speaker C: Hey, how you going, guys? [00:01:27] Speaker A: What's up? Two Greg's one podcast. [00:01:30] Speaker B: Crazy, I'm sure, but great to have you on board, Greg. You've got some stuff you want to share with us and we'll get to that in just a moment. [00:01:42] Speaker C: Of course. [00:01:42] Speaker B: We're joined by. By Justin and Jim, Team Lucky Straps as well. Hey, fellas Up. [00:01:49] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:01:49] Speaker B: How's everyone doing? [00:01:51] Speaker A: I haven't seen you for ages, Greg. It's been 24 hours. [00:01:55] Speaker B: I haven't left this spot. I've just been waiting for the next podcast to roll around. [00:01:59] Speaker A: Yep, it seems a little bit like we're doing this every day. Part of me is like, we should just go daily. Let's do a daily shower. I'm awful that do a daily show. [00:02:07] Speaker B: I could do it. [00:02:08] Speaker A: It was fun if. If you guys. I mean, the booking parties are kind of for bright beef uppers only, so you probably would get. Not get much out of them if you aren't going to the Bright Festival of Photography or at least aren't somewhat interested in it. So we've left those ones on YouTube. Only if you do want to check them out. If you're listening on Spotify to this, you'll be like, what ones? They're not on Spotify or Apple. Yeah, or anything. [00:02:32] Speaker B: So basically, the Camera Life podcast and Lucky Straps, we're part of the. The media team for the Bright Festival of Photography this year. We're all heading down in a few weeks to. To take part in the. The creative goodness and the shenanigans, no doubt. Hey, Greg Carrick, have you ever been to a beef op? [00:02:50] Speaker C: No, I haven't and I'm just dipping my toe in the water. This time because I will be at Bright but I'm not going to think. [00:02:59] Speaker A: Oh, you're just going to be skulking around the outskirts, just keeping an eye on. [00:03:03] Speaker B: I see your game. Why buy a ticket when you can just sneak in, hey? Yeah. [00:03:06] Speaker C: Waiting for people to ask for my autograph. Yeah. [00:03:11] Speaker A: Fair. [00:03:11] Speaker B: Cool. Fickle. Hey, well we should, we should all catch up for a meal. Justin's bringing steak so I'm ran for Barbie. [00:03:20] Speaker C: I'm actually going up there with my 92 year old mother. Oh, she likes going to Bright and we booked that week and then I found out later it was that week. [00:03:31] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:03:31] Speaker B: Oh well, afternoon nap. [00:03:37] Speaker D: Or. Does she like steak, Greg? [00:03:40] Speaker C: Yeah, just a little bit. [00:03:44] Speaker B: Yeah. Might have to cut it into small pieces for her but you know, she'll be fine, Greg, I'm sure. So Greg, you're here to talk to us today about something that you've got, you've got in the works. Do you want to tell us about. [00:03:57] Speaker A: I might just do a quick massive chat that's going on just, just to see who's in there because it's been going crazy and I know they're already throwing stones at us for being late, so I'll just quickly do.

[00:06:12] Speaker B: Oh, of course, sorry. I forgot we didn't do it when you were away. So I've completely forgot about how I said that. [00:06:19] Speaker A: Minutes. Doing this, you know, up today, so we've got to use the stuff. All right. [00:06:24] Speaker B: Greg should feel honored. Greg, talk to us about Expressions five and what's going on there. [00:06:28] Speaker C: Okay. I belong to the Yarra Rangers Photographic Society. Have done for a few years now, and every two years they have an exhibition at the Warburton Art Gallery in Warburton, of course. [00:06:42] Speaker A: Hold the phone for one second. Greg. Are you other. Greg and Jim, are you guys getting the crackling or is it just. [00:06:47] Speaker D: Yeah, I'm just trying to fix it now. I've just turned it off. Auto. [00:06:51] Speaker A: Yeah, or maybe either that or just give it a wiggle or something. Just like audio cracks, a bit of feedback online. [00:06:59] Speaker D: Yeah, I took it off. [00:07:02] Speaker A: Just give it a go now. [00:07:04] Speaker C: Okay. I'm a member of the. [00:07:07] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:07:07] Speaker C: Yarrangers Photographic Society and I recommend you joining your local photographic society. They're good fun. But anyway, we've got this exhibition called Expressions 5 on at the Warverton Art Gallery. It's on. It's open now, actually, and it's running till Sunday, November 23, so lots of time. So cruise down to Warby. And the art center here has strange times. It never opens before midday, so don't go in there in the morning, but from midday on you can get in. And on Saturday it goes all the way to 9pm, so it's really good for a weekend jaunt. And all the members were allowed to put in two photos that they choose, so there wasn't a theme or anything like that. So we can all Put in two pictures and I went in there the other day and cruised around and there's some excellent shots like this one here, of course, and. And it's really worth seeing. There's some really good, stunning photography. [00:08:17] Speaker B: Very cool. And you've put two pieces in. So talk to us about this. First on the black and white one. [00:08:23] Speaker C: Okay. I chose two totally different styles. I thought I'd put in a nice, safe, arty one, like a calendar picture. And then I thought I'd go more my style, which is this black and white one that was taken at Penn Square in the city. And then I. Yeah, edit it. Lots of contrast, bit of grain, all that sort of stuff. That's the style I really enjoy doing for Street. [00:08:54] Speaker B: It reminds me, Greg, of those shots you took during COVID I don't know if you remember, I only remembered it the other day that I included some of your images of the three men statues outside the corner of Burke and. Yeah, it's a Burke and Swanston. You shot that one during COVID And that. This reminds me of that. That work that you did then. And we featured some of your images in a Shot Kid article too about COVID didn't we? [00:09:23] Speaker C: Yeah, it was an interesting little exercise, going to the city in lockdown and taking photos of Melbourne deserted. It was amazing. [00:09:32] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. Hopefully never to be repeated. Yeah, but yeah, yeah, like that. [00:09:39] Speaker C: Like that film on the beach. [00:09:43] Speaker B: And this is your second image, which is the landscape shot. Where was this shot? [00:09:47] Speaker C: That was shot on the border in New South Wales and got a mind blank of where it is. But it's Aubrey Wodonga. That's where it was. Yeah. [00:09:58] Speaker B: Wasn't that on the last road trip you took with your mum? [00:10:01] Speaker C: Yes. [00:10:02] Speaker B: Yeah, see, I. I pay attention. [00:10:04] Speaker C: Yeah, I do indeed. I remember that's the only way I can get out. [00:10:10] Speaker B: You know, his mummy is his mummy literature. Wow, Greg. Wow. Gotta cut those apron strings, my friend. This is a beautiful shot. I love the. The color gradation in the. From the blue through to the pinks. It's just absolutely stunning. [00:10:26] Speaker C: Yeah, it turned out really well and there was a lot of latitude in the raw file to adjust it because it was quite dark there. [00:10:34] Speaker B: Yeah, that's not like you shooting in the dark, mate. No, no, not at all. And so Expressions 5, you've got. There's an opening event happening on the 13th at 2pm yeah. [00:10:48] Speaker C: This Saturday is the opening day and to go to that for catering purposes, you have to book through the Rangers Shire because they own the facility and. But it's all free. Everything's free. [00:11:03] Speaker A: Wow. [00:11:03] Speaker B: Free booze as well, is it? Free booze and food, yeah. Yeah. Well, Justin ever lets me get out of this chair, I might. I might try and make my way down there, but. So, Greg, how long have you been part of the. The Yara Rangers Photographic Society? [00:11:20] Speaker C: What's the time? Probably six years. Yep, I know. I joined and I sat up the back and I just thought I'd suss the place out and being introverted, it was easy for me to just sit there and not talk. And after a year they elected me president, so. [00:11:45] Speaker B: That'Ll teach you. [00:11:47] Speaker C: Yeah, I reckon. So that was an interesting experience as well. Great club and I find the people there are really good. Not that that's surprising, but that's the benefit you get out of these things. Not just putting in photos and photo chat, but meeting the people and getting to know them. [00:12:08] Speaker B: Yeah. One of the earlier jobs that I took on for Justin with lucky straps was reaching out to camera clubs to try and build community, get a little bit of brand awareness out there, but also see what we could do in that space. And I have to say, the people that run these clubs, you know, they're volunteers, really passionate, dedicated, often excellent photographers themselves, but just the community environment was really important and, you know, going and visiting some of those clubs in person, just wonderful to see that, you know, that camaraderie and that support and an interest in one another's work. And I think that's something that we miss online. We get it, but it's not diluted or a very different sort of version, but yeah. And so you've got the two pieces in. And is it. Does it also coincide with the competition or is it purely an exhibition? [00:13:02] Speaker C: Purely an exhibition. Each member was allowed to choose their own photos so they didn't have to have won awards or distinctions or anything. [00:13:11] Speaker B: Yeah. Okay. [00:13:12] Speaker A: Your crackles back. Crackers. Must be a cord or something. [00:13:16] Speaker B: I reckon it might be a little headphone mic that you've got. Dangly now. Last night you went out for a shoot. While I've got you, I want to sing your praises a little bit more. Oh, yeah, last night. [00:13:28] Speaker A: Photo. [00:13:29] Speaker B: You shot a photo that. Why? Why can't I bring it up? Share this one. [00:13:35] Speaker A: It's too good. It won't open. Oh, you make it. Yeah, make it. [00:13:39] Speaker B: How's that? Oh, no. Where'd it go? Crackers. [00:13:42] Speaker A: You can't. You can't narrow your screen, can you, Greg? [00:13:46] Speaker B: No, this is on my second one. [00:13:47] Speaker A: Now and it won't like just drag the window narrower. [00:13:52] Speaker B: I can go in a little bit bigger. [00:13:57] Speaker D: Joe that. [00:13:58] Speaker B: How's that? [00:13:59] Speaker C: Yeah, that's good enough. [00:14:00] Speaker B: Look, what do you people want from me? Seriously? I've been sitting in this chair for three weeks doing interviews while you went to New Zealand. Then I was. [00:14:12] Speaker D: I think you would have worked it out how to use it. [00:14:17] Speaker B: But no, ignorance is bliss, Greg. This is a phenomenal shot. I've. I've, you know, obviously I've seen examples of this in the past, but I've never seen one done locally and done with so many stages of the moon's travel. Talk to us about how you, how you captured this. [00:14:36] Speaker C: Well, I went to Burke's Lookout, which is on the western side of Mount Dandenong facing the city. There's a wonderful view there, probably good for sunsets. But I, I really took a chance because during the day there were thunderstorms and lightning and everything happening. And I thought, this is going to be, you know, bit dodgy. But by the time I got there at night, well, it's 2:00am the cloud was totally clear. Sky was totally clear, clouds. The moon was nice and bright. And the only thing I had to do was make sure the settings were right as the eclipse happened because it just changes wildly. The first shots of the full moon, I was 2,000th of a second at ISO 200. By the time it was eclipsing, I was at half a second and ISO 64,000. [00:15:37] Speaker B: Wow. [00:15:38] Speaker C: 6,400. [00:15:40] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:15:41] Speaker C: I had to adjust each shot. [00:15:42] Speaker B: Yeah. And then these are all. [00:15:45] Speaker A: And it was that different of an exposure. [00:15:47] Speaker B: Whoa. [00:15:48] Speaker C: That's crazy. I. I thought, I've seen these sort of photos before and I thought, oh, maybe there's some setting in the camera where you can multiple exposed into. Into one shot or something. But you wouldn't have got the moon when it was eclipsing because it would have just been dark. [00:16:04] Speaker A: Yeah. You had to change the exposure to make it work. [00:16:08] Speaker C: Yeah. So all individual shots over four hours and then having to edit them and put them together in one. [00:16:16] Speaker A: So you print them all out, cut the moons out with scissors and then stick them. [00:16:20] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:16:20] Speaker A: Stick them onto the Bluetooth. [00:16:22] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:16:23] Speaker A: Okay. [00:16:24] Speaker B: Don't hit the cloud, Greg. [00:16:27] Speaker D: If, if you were doing it, Justin, you probably just use Canva. [00:16:33] Speaker A: Photoshop. I don't like Photoshop at all. Did you use Photoshop for it, Greg? [00:16:38] Speaker C: No. Is Infinity photo. [00:16:41] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. How is, how much is that Infinity? [00:16:45] Speaker C: It's. Oh, well, when I got. It was only like $90. [00:16:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:16:49] Speaker C: One off payment and then they send you updates. No subscription. [00:16:53] Speaker A: Imagine it does. That's like old school software where you just. [00:16:56] Speaker C: It does everything Photoshop does. [00:16:58] Speaker A: You got a little box, a cardboard box, but there was nothing in there, you know, those days. [00:17:04] Speaker B: It was just full of regret because remember how much Photoshop used to be when it. Like, it was like a thousand bucks. [00:17:10] Speaker A: Yeah. Or more, even crazy. 1500 or whatever. But if you add it up that time, that's a couple of years at the current subscription. Yeah, yeah, true. [00:17:20] Speaker C: If you're not a professional, I see no reason to use Adobe because you're just paying and paying and paying. [00:17:26] Speaker B: Yeah, it's getting that way. Well, they just put it, I think we just talked about a couple of weeks ago, they put my price up by about 40%. [00:17:32] Speaker A: Yeah, I told them to put yours up. [00:17:34] Speaker B: Yeah, I know you did. I'm on to you, castles. [00:17:38] Speaker A: Les. Les wants to know, how was the wind up there, Greg? [00:17:41] Speaker C: It was bad. I had my. I had my tripod set up. My beard was going sideways. [00:17:49] Speaker B: That's his weather vane. Yeah, yeah. [00:17:52] Speaker C: I had an 18 to 300 zoom with a hood, and once I got below about a thousandth of a second, I can see the image shattering on the screen. So I took the hood off first. I thought that might have been catching wind, but in the end I had to minimize the tripod down to just one section, plonk it down on the ground so it was a lot shorter to stop the buffeting, you know, Gosh, Greg, despite. [00:18:21] Speaker B: Despite all of those challenges, having to change exposure partway through, you know, having to capture so many images, but also battling the wind with a tripod, you. You've nailed it. Really clean shot. [00:18:32] Speaker C: And then there was about a dozen young Asians up there with their phones and they're walking around with torches and. [00:18:43] Speaker B: Oh, no. [00:18:44] Speaker A: As youth. [00:18:45] Speaker B: The youth. Young people. Yeah. [00:18:50] Speaker A: I don't want to. I don't want to overshadow your photo in any way because it is amazingly stunning. [00:18:56] Speaker B: Overshadow. See what you did there? [00:18:57] Speaker A: Yeah. But I saw a photo. I saw a photo on social media today of the moon that I just have to pull up because it. It certainly stopped me in my tracks. Before I pull it up, I'm going to read the caption. [00:19:08] Speaker B: A breathtaking. [00:19:10] Speaker A: Tonight's full red moon rising over Sydney during the total lunar eclipse by Ethan Callahan. This is a real photograph captured using a technique called telephoto compression or lens compression. Here's how it works. Telephoto lens, long focal length, for example, 300 to 600 millimeter is used, the photographer positions themselves far away from the subject, the Opera House, in this case, because the long focal length, the moon, which is actually quite small, appears larger relative to the building in the frame. Okay, with that in mind, I'm just going to bring it up. I really don't want to overshadow you, Greg, but I could never have got this shot. Look at this beautiful, real photo of the moon directly over the Opera House. [00:19:59] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:20:00] Speaker A: Using that, that natural in camera telephoto compression technique. Quite stunning. [00:20:08] Speaker B: So he stacked two images. One zoomed in, one zoomed out. [00:20:12] Speaker C: Did you see the comments? [00:20:14] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. There's not many positive ones. [00:20:16] Speaker C: He was getting roasted. [00:20:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:20:18] Speaker A: There's people in there that were like, this doesn't even make sense with where the moon would be like. [00:20:25] Speaker B: And I think, isn't the moon at a bad angle? Shouldn't it be kind of rotated a little bit more to the left, like so the rabbit's a bit more prominent. I. I think he's twisted the moon. [00:20:34] Speaker C: I think it's a northern hemisphere moon. [00:20:39] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:40] Speaker B: Probably they have a different moon to us. Yeah, yeah. [00:20:42] Speaker A: Bruce Moyle says, when it was red. [00:20:44] Speaker C: When it was red, it was way up in the sky. [00:20:47] Speaker A: Hey, let's not. Don't think too much about it. Let's just enjoy it. It's real. Yeah. Hot dog. Not hot dog. This is not hot dog. So real that reality has given up. [00:21:01] Speaker C: It broke the Internet. [00:21:02] Speaker A: It did break the Internet. And, yeah. Unfortunately, though, for the untrained eye, this is the problem is that to now this is what you've got to put out there to stop someone from just scrolling straight past it. And, you know, I was quite angry. [00:21:19] Speaker C: When I saw that. I spent all this time out there getting real photos and this dip puts this up. [00:21:27] Speaker A: You know how angry I was? This is the first Facebook post I've ever saved. And I just. Then I had to figure out where. When you save a post, where does it go? And I just found it. And it's the only one in there. [00:21:40] Speaker B: Such a boon. [00:21:41] Speaker A: I was like. Because I knew I would never find this again if I want to bring it up on the show tonight. So, anyway, yeah, Rick Nelson says, sponsored by Peter Lick. I don't know if Peter went. He didn't go that bad, but there was a little bit of a photoshoppy issue with his moon. Anyway, yours was absolutely epic, Greg, because you could tell that it was actually real and it would have been a fair effort. So how long were you out there for? Did you say? [00:22:10] Speaker C: I was there from 2 till 6:30. I didn't sleep last night at all, so. [00:22:17] Speaker A: Oh my gosh. [00:22:18] Speaker B: Yeah, and you still look, still look glamorous today. I don't know how. [00:22:23] Speaker C: It's Photoshop. [00:22:24] Speaker B: Yeah, now you use Photoshop. [00:22:27] Speaker C: Artificial intelligence. [00:22:30] Speaker B: Well, Greg, thank you so much for joining us and sharing Expressions five with Yarra Valley, sorry, the Yarra Rangers Photographic Society, wishing you all the best and everyone at the club for the, the show and, and congratulations on your two submissions but also on the shot you took last night. That's pretty phenomenal. [00:22:49] Speaker A: Great work. [00:22:49] Speaker B: You continue. [00:22:52] Speaker C: So many times I go out to do astro and there's clouds and rain and everything and last night was just perfect. [00:22:58] Speaker B: Yeah, we're happy for you. You nailed it. Absolutely. [00:23:02] Speaker C: Thank you very much, guys. [00:23:04] Speaker A: Thank you, mate. [00:23:07] Speaker B: All right, we'll talk to you soon. [00:23:08] Speaker A: Enjoy your radio show. [00:23:10] Speaker C: Cheers. [00:23:11] Speaker D: See you man. [00:23:12] Speaker B: Everybody. Bye. [00:23:15] Speaker C: I don't know how to get out of here. [00:23:16] Speaker A: Oh, you're stuck. You're stuck here with us forever. [00:23:19] Speaker B: Not another one. [00:23:23] Speaker A: Lucy, Lucinda's here. What's up, Lucinda? I haven't seen you for a bit. You've been busy working, taking photos. [00:23:31] Speaker B: She has been busy. Social media has blown up a little bit from what I've seen and I'm starting to see more and more people use the, the glasses, the meta glasses. [00:23:42] Speaker A: Yeah, they brought out the Oakley ones with even better stuff. [00:23:47] Speaker B: So are you interested in those? [00:23:50] Speaker A: No, I don't think I can bother getting them until they have a non vertical mode. It's vertical only. [00:23:57] Speaker B: Turn your head on the side. [00:23:58] Speaker A: Oh yeah, no, just pull the. [00:24:01] Speaker D: Twist the lenses. [00:24:03] Speaker A: Twist your lenses. [00:24:05] Speaker B: Oof, that's brutal. [00:24:08] Speaker A: Anyway, moving along, should we do some viewer comments? [00:24:11] Speaker B: Let's do some viewer comments. [00:24:17] Speaker A: I really want to have a game show. Hey, if anyone, if anyone listening could commit to supplying us with like really good trivia questions or something for me to put together a photography game show. Hit me up. Justinuckystraps.com I think I could do some but I want someone who's like a full on photo trivia nerd that would have a good broad range of categories. And then we'll bring on past guests and also any. I think I'd like to have it where we have three contestants, two photographers that we've had on before and then one just like random photographer, you know, that listens to the show, that wants to come on and take on the pros and on, on just general knowledge. I think it'd be fun. [00:25:07] Speaker B: Yeah, I think it'd be fun. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. We've got to get buzzers. We need buzzers of some sort. [00:25:13] Speaker A: No, no, no. I was thinking you did. Yeah. Just because we got no budget for that. They have to do hands and I've seen a game show where they. They have to do moose antlers. So like you'd ask the question and then for them to say they're ready to answer, they go like this. Right, photographers. We do this. [00:25:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:25:35] Speaker D: We're going to whack the mic a lot. [00:25:39] Speaker A: The guests won't have. Mike, how are we should get my cock on the show? I don't know if my cock should come on the show. [00:25:48] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't know that my cock should come at all. Sorry. As soon as it was out of my mouth I realized pg. [00:25:58] Speaker A: Lucinda says I used my lucky straps strap last week and it was a dream. That is great to hear. I'm glad. What. What camera did you put it on again? Which one of your 143 cameras. I don't know where it's at now. [00:26:13] Speaker B: Yeah, my fox says. Oh, we missed it. Hang on. Where'd it go? That will be a different kind of show. [00:26:18] Speaker A: It would be indeed. Wow. Yeah, it's getting out of control. Okay, where am I? One of my comments. [00:26:25] Speaker B: Viewer comments. Come on this tab instead. [00:26:28] Speaker A: There we go. Bring her up. Ta da. Where are we from six days ago? Oh, it's Liz watching. Late Monday to catch up. See you guys at bfop. Nice. [00:26:41] Speaker B: Nice. [00:26:42] Speaker A: And then did we have that one last week? No. Simon Pollock. This guy seems pretty short. He wore lederhosen Episode Lee. [00:26:57] Speaker B: Those two have been ripping each other for as long as I can remember. [00:27:01] Speaker A: Oh yeah, yeah. [00:27:02] Speaker B: It's a beautiful friendship. [00:27:06] Speaker A: Tim Siamas. This was on the Justin's Back random show. Pumped for beef up just over a month ago. Drop in for a morning pod session. Yeah, that'll be the plan. We're going to have the the in person from our accommodation podcast set up. That may or may not work. We'll see what happens. We might get crackers as crackles if we have problems, but I think I can do this. [00:27:29] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:27:30] Speaker A: What else? Andrew connor-w4m. Oh, yeah, the book. And now Got the book. Samantha's Great Ocean Road 1. What can I say? Pretty damn epic. Really good details. Heaps of tips so far. Planning my next adventure down that way. Yeah, I couldn't imagine if you were. Yeah. What better way to be able to then plan a great ocean road photography road trip than to get the bible of great ocean road photography. [00:27:55] Speaker B: And there's something very Kind of something very creative and romantic about, you know, prepping for a trip. But you know, often we, we fall into the habit of like, oh, let's just troll what other people have done on, on social media or, you know, online. But to have it like to actually just take the time, go through a book, make your plans, reference that or. And other, you know, material, I think it's, it's, it's really wonderful thing to do. [00:28:20] Speaker A: It's a tactile way of doing it too. Instead of scrolling around on the Internet. [00:28:25] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:28:26] Speaker A: Just. Yeah. [00:28:28] Speaker B: It's like we talked about with Aiden last week about, you know, carrying a notebook to, you know, keep track of what you're doing and to journal your work a little bit. I think it's. I really like that. It sings to me. [00:28:39] Speaker A: Yeah. And finally on my video conferring, comparing Canon RF wide angle lenses on the R5 Mark II at Johan van Ziel 1779. Awesome. And very practical comparison. Thank you. I got my answers. [00:28:58] Speaker B: You won the day, Justin. [00:29:00] Speaker A: Comments like that make me want to do more of those videos that I just haven't. Haven't done for a while. [00:29:05] Speaker B: Yeah, we'd like you to just do it as well. [00:29:07] Speaker A: I'm glad it helps. It's just the time and the stuff. I should do it. I've got, I've really got to do that one for the 50 mils since I've got 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 canon 50 mils currently. [00:29:23] Speaker B: Wow. Yeah, you need to make something off them or at least go out and shoot with them. One or the other. Tim Siamis also said, got Samantha's book over the weekend, Father's Day. Got it for his dad. How cool is that? [00:29:36] Speaker D: That's cool. [00:29:38] Speaker B: That's all I don't see from laid. Well played, sir. [00:29:43] Speaker A: Oh, and Lisa's ordered a copy as well. [00:29:46] Speaker B: You guys are awesome. [00:29:49] Speaker A: Sam, be happy. She put a lot, a lot of work and a lot of money into that book. [00:29:54] Speaker B: Yep. Should be very happy to hear this, guys. Thank you for supporting her, but. Yeah. Are you done with your comments? [00:30:03] Speaker A: Yeah, there wasn't many this week. I mean it was, it was pretty crazy, the beef up stuff. We, I think we had the most viewers ever on those beef up shows. 150 at the same time. [00:30:13] Speaker B: Whoa. [00:30:14] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:30:15] Speaker B: Awesome. [00:30:15] Speaker A: It was nuts. [00:30:17] Speaker B: Yeah, it was good. It was good. All right. Should we get to the news? [00:30:22] Speaker A: Tony? I ain't never gonna stop going on holidays. Ain't never gonna stop. [00:30:29] Speaker B: Why would he, Tony? He's got us to pick up the slack. [00:30:31] Speaker D: That's right. [00:30:32] Speaker B: We've made it. We've. What's that rod for your own back kind of saying we've done this to ourselves. [00:30:38] Speaker A: That's right. To the news. All right, you tell me what you want, Greg and I will bring it up. I've got a few extra ones as well, because I thought tonight's show could be a little bit rumor heavy. There's a few rumors flying around on the webs. So once we get through the news, I'll see if there's any other rumors that I've found that we can talk about that. Because I've sort of. While I was away, I kind of lost track a little bit of the rumour mill. So I was doing some digging. It seems there's some burblings and it is. So it's September traditionally. October is what I call it. Techtober. [00:31:11] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:31:14] Speaker A: Yeah, they do. You know what I actually. I was actually looking at again before Nintendo. [00:31:22] Speaker B: Oh, really? [00:31:23] Speaker A: That's even better, I think. I think Elena and I just want to play Mario Kart instead of. Sometimes instead of watching tv, you know, for half an hour, just play Mario Kart against each other for half an hour. You know what's frustrating, my friend Wombat has. Do you remember Nintendo released those small consoles that had like a hundred game. [00:31:46] Speaker B: 100, like the mini versions of stuff. [00:31:48] Speaker A: Yeah. And it had like Mario and everything on it. [00:31:51] Speaker B: Yep. [00:31:52] Speaker A: You can't get them anywhere now. [00:31:54] Speaker B: They sold out really fast. They're really popular. [00:31:56] Speaker A: So why didn't they just keep selling them? They would have made a fortune. [00:32:00] Speaker B: Kind of anniversary things. No, I don't have any of those. But the switch 2 has backwards. Has. It has backwards compatibility with the original Switch. But more importantly, it has Nintendo Classic. So you can play games from. [00:32:12] Speaker A: Can you play Mario Brothers? [00:32:13] Speaker B: Yeah, the original Nintendo. [00:32:15] Speaker A: The first one. That's why. That's. [00:32:18] Speaker B: Let me finish. The Super Nintendo. Yeah. Super Nintendo system that they now have GameCube on the Switch 2. They've got the Nintendo 64. They've got. And then obviously some of the Wii and Wii U games have come across to Switch as well as deluxe versions, so. [00:32:34] Speaker A: So legitimately, the first Mario I could play on the Switch too. And it looks the same as it used to. [00:32:41] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:32:41] Speaker A: Or they all hyped up for, like, modern graphics. [00:32:43] Speaker B: No, no, no, no, no. It's exactly the same. And you can even some of the games. Oh, yeah. Ghost of Yotai is coming out. Nev. Well spotted, sir. But the. Some of them, you can even add CRT lines. So the. You Know how the old CRT monitor. [00:32:58] Speaker A: That'S like film grain in Photoshop. [00:33:01] Speaker B: It's like putting a sim over it, like a film simulation over it anyway. [00:33:06] Speaker A: But yeah, okay, well that, that actually adds a bit more. Do you know how much those classic games cost to buy? Are they like one at a time? [00:33:13] Speaker B: No, it's a subscription. So there's two subscriptions. There's an expansion, there's like a. Okay, yeah, but it's not too bad. Like I've got. [00:33:22] Speaker A: Too bad. [00:33:22] Speaker B: I've got the expansion plus pack and it comes with chat, like access to games that the standard expansion doesn't get. And I think I pay about 80 bucks a year, so it's not much. It's not like it's not like 80 a year. [00:33:36] Speaker A: That's fine. Yeah, that's okay. So it's not like it's 15, 20amonth or something that. [00:33:40] Speaker B: Oh, no, no, no, no. It's really affordable because Nintendo is all about family friendly. Yeah, yeah, but I mean, they've survived in business. They're been around for like 120 years. Like, well before electricity was even in Japan, you know, like they were. They ran a taxi company, they made playing cards, they ran a brothel. Like they've done it all. Yeah, years ago. Really. Decades ago. Yeah. Well, yeah, there's kind of murky stories around it. [00:34:13] Speaker A: Is that how the Legend of Zelda come about? No, that's secret. [00:34:16] Speaker B: No, no, that's Nintendo. [00:34:18] Speaker A: Is it? Oh, yeah. [00:34:19] Speaker B: You've got so much. We need to have a few master classes. I think before you are allowed to buy a gaming system, you've got to pass some essential criteria. [00:34:29] Speaker A: I. Yeah, I haven't had a lot of games. I. I had a PlayStation 1 for a little while. Barely played it. And then. Yeah, it was never. No, I had the. Had the original Nintendo that was the best out of the lot. Because the door lifted up and you put the cartridge in. Went down. [00:34:44] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:34:44] Speaker A: And then we had. [00:34:45] Speaker B: You had to blow on the cartridges to. [00:34:47] Speaker A: Oh yeah, make them work. Duck Hunters. Sweet. [00:34:51] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:34:53] Speaker D: Pete. [00:34:54] Speaker A: Gaming. [00:34:54] Speaker B: Anyway, I am gatekeeping. Bruce. Let's talk news. Let's talk photography news. [00:34:59] Speaker A: Oh, hang on. First, First. Greg character said. Last game I played was Commander Keane. I've played Commander Keane. Well, that was. God, it was on the PC. What was it? [00:35:10] Speaker B: I don't know, I've never heard of it. [00:35:12] Speaker A: It's old man. [00:35:14] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:35:15] Speaker A: Just for all you photographers that are so excited about this conversation, I just need to see what it is. [00:35:23] Speaker B: Now. [00:35:23] Speaker D: I've had a big day. [00:35:24] Speaker B: Yeah. I bet. [00:35:26] Speaker A: Yeah, it's like a side PlayStation. [00:35:28] Speaker B: Hey. [00:35:30] Speaker A: Id softer. Yeah. PC game. Bruce Moore played it. I need some. [00:35:35] Speaker B: Yeah, that doesn't surprise me. I reckon Bruce is a big dirty gamer. [00:35:39] Speaker A: He's a big dirty gamer. So it's. I remember now. It's like. Yeah, like this kind of thing and you're jumping over stuff and. [00:35:52] Speaker B: Oh, wow. [00:35:53] Speaker A: I think you, you're in space. Maybe. I can't remember. Anyway, let's talk photography. [00:36:03] Speaker B: All right, let's talk about some, some recent leaks and lens releases, starting with the Brighton Star. They've announced a new 50 millimeter F 1.4. It's a Mark III. I didn't even know they had a Mark 2 or a 1. [00:36:18] Speaker A: I've never heard of them. [00:36:20] Speaker B: And it says. Well, this, I got this article from Sony Alpha Rumors, but I think it's coming to other mounts as well, other APS C mounts. [00:36:31] Speaker A: Okay. [00:36:31] Speaker B: But. Yeah, just, just another player in that field. I think it's, it's quite a cheap lens, but it's, you know, it's a, it's a 50F1 force. That's a 75 on the Fuji, I think, if it comes to that. I'm not sure what does it make it on a, on a Sony e. [00:36:47] Speaker A: If it's 50 on the APS 75, it's about the same. [00:36:53] Speaker B: Yeah. Greg Carrick says they're the budget of budget lenses. So. [00:36:57] Speaker A: But, but you know, if Greg thinks they're a bit sketchy, then put a broken bottle on the front of his camera. Yeah. [00:37:09] Speaker B: And he'll shoot the moon with it and it will look like a flipping masterpiece. So, you know, it's all what you do with it. It's not. It doesn't matter about the, about the quality of the glass, Justin. It's about what you do with it. [00:37:22] Speaker A: And then there's also the quality of the glass. [00:37:24] Speaker B: Yeah. What else? Let's, let's skip on from that one, Lauer. We talked last week and the week before about how Laura bringing out that new 200 F2. Well, they've got some other lenses coming out. They've released a road map with six additional upcoming lenses including the 200F2A like a Cinema 35 2.8 Macro, 17F4, 180F 4.5 Macro lens, a full frame sunlight 40 to 80 anamorphic zoom, two times anamorphic zoom and a sunlight 70 to 135, two times anamorphic zoom. Both are 4.5. So they're cinemas. [00:38:08] Speaker A: What does sunlight mean? Is that just their Design. Is it like just a series? [00:38:12] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm not sure. [00:38:13] Speaker A: I think it would be to do with. [00:38:15] Speaker B: No, nothing to do with the sun itself. I think that that's just that you. [00:38:19] Speaker D: Can only use it outside only. [00:38:24] Speaker A: I like this comment from Roy. Looks more like a TAMU lens. [00:38:27] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:38:28] Speaker A: In case anyone's wondering, that is how you officially pronounce it. It's not tmu, it's tamu. Well, you heard it here first. I'm trying to make it a thing. Okay. [00:38:40] Speaker B: So you're the guy parties when people say, oh, I got it at team. Or you go, sorry, it's Temu. [00:38:45] Speaker A: Yes, you correct everyone. Okay. I heard it from a friend of ours and I was like, I like that. I'm taking. Really takes the mickey out of that giant company that's trying to ruin. [00:38:58] Speaker D: Take over the world. [00:39:00] Speaker A: Yeah. To move. So Bruce reckons it might be something to do with the flare color if these ads wouldn't stop moving these lenses around. These are beastly looking things though, aren't they? These animal. [00:39:14] Speaker D: They look large. [00:39:16] Speaker A: Yeah. Anamorphic primes are big as they are. So yeah, yeah, yeah, they're pretty mega. They're going hard. [00:39:26] Speaker B: But a friend of mine, Adam, he, he's the rep in Australia for Lauer and their cine range is massive. They make, I think from what he said, like most of their business is around the cine stuff. And, and obviously they do a lot of kind of. We've talked about this before, they do a lot of obscure lenses. You know, they've done tilt shift zooms, I've done probes, they do a lot of distortion free ultra wides. So they kind of, they operate at the fringes. But yeah, they're still at it, which is great. More lenses, more choice, more competition, better. [00:40:06] Speaker A: Pricing with more lenses. [00:40:07] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:40:08] Speaker A: Speaking of more lenses, what next? [00:40:12] Speaker B: What have we got next? First leaked images of the new Sigma 20 to 200. 20 to 200. This is on. [00:40:24] Speaker A: That's interesting. [00:40:24] Speaker B: Only offer rumors. [00:40:26] Speaker A: Yeah, you can tell it's on. Sony Alpha rumors because it's got S A R scribbled all over the image. [00:40:32] Speaker B: I hate how they do that. It's so dumb. It's because they don't want the other Sony rumor sites from stealing it because they all go to war over rumors. [00:40:41] Speaker A: Yeah, because you got to make someone Photoshop that. [00:40:44] Speaker B: I know. [00:40:45] Speaker D: Like if you were. [00:40:45] Speaker B: I know, Good. [00:40:48] Speaker A: I like this focal length range. Like getting, getting to 20 almost means you could, you could not take a wide. You know, if you're, if you're Doing the travel thing and you're like, I just one. One lens to do it all. [00:40:59] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:41:00] Speaker A: You know, you can get away with a lot of the time. That's actually 28 to 200 often on full frame zoomies. [00:41:06] Speaker B: It just gives you that little bit of extra. [00:41:09] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:41:10] Speaker B: Takes you to wide lens 3.5 as well at the wide end. So it's not too bad, you know, like you said, for a travel lens, however, I mean, look at the. I don't know, I think that one up the top is the new 35. [00:41:28] Speaker A: Which one? This one. [00:41:30] Speaker B: The first image. Yeah, that's the 35, which is. Seems massively wide. [00:41:35] Speaker A: That's a 135.1.4. [00:41:37] Speaker B: I thought they said 35.1.4. [00:41:39] Speaker A: Let me see. There might be. [00:41:40] Speaker B: Yeah, they did. [00:41:42] Speaker A: That's 135. That's 135. 1 4. Maybe there's another one. [00:41:47] Speaker B: They said 35 in the thing. [00:41:48] Speaker A: Anyway. That's 3512. There's three lenses. [00:41:51] Speaker B: Oh, there is two. [00:41:52] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. 35. 1.2. [00:41:54] Speaker B: Sorry, my bad. [00:41:55] Speaker D: Those are the 135 1.4. [00:41:57] Speaker A: This one is a big one. Yeah, the one at the top, this big. Mega. Mega. [00:42:01] Speaker D: Didn't we look at this the other day? [00:42:03] Speaker A: Yeah, maybe so now it's been confirmed. But there's three lenses coming, not just one. [00:42:09] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:42:09] Speaker A: Is what we're talking about. And so the. Yeah, so the. [00:42:12] Speaker B: Try to Keep up, Jim. [00:42:13] Speaker A: Yeah, keep up, Jim. [00:42:14] Speaker B: Come on. Yeah, I know you're telling me. [00:42:16] Speaker A: I. I can't keep up with these bloody ads. [00:42:20] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:42:20] Speaker A: And. [00:42:20] Speaker B: Oh, sorry. Yeah, a 35 12. Apparently this is all going live tomorrow, sometime the next day, depending on time zone. The Sony and Leica L mounts. So, yeah, again, more options, more choices. [00:42:34] Speaker A: And then does it say anything about Nikon? Like, usually Nikon isn't far behind, but it's not on any of these. [00:42:42] Speaker B: No, they're all saying to Sony E and Leica L at the moment, so. [00:42:46] Speaker A: Interesting. [00:42:46] Speaker B: We'll have to wait and see. [00:42:50] Speaker A: Okay, so. [00:42:53] Speaker B: Yeah, let's jump to the Nikon ZF article, please. Boss on it. [00:43:01] Speaker A: Where is that? Gosh, you've taken it out from the bottom. [00:43:06] Speaker B: Well, I'm leaving the rooms for you because I know how much you like them. So Nikon releasing the ZF in a silver finish to really, really drive home that nostalgic classic camera look. And I think it looks absolutely gorgeous. You know, I know the lenses aren't great, the lenses that they've remade for the ZF series, but the camera Itself looks incredible. Curtis, who we had on a few weeks ago, now I think you're away. Justin, he's Curtis Graham, motorsport photographer and race driver. He loves shooting with the zf. He's a big fan of it. [00:43:46] Speaker A: Yeah. So, yeah, Roy says the ZF is gray, just like me. [00:43:51] Speaker B: Roy. [00:43:55] Speaker A: Interesting. Anthony Stonehouse. Nikon doesn't let Sigma make full frame lenses for Z mount. Unfortunately, they make a killing there. No Nikon Zeds for Sigma? No Sigma Nikon Zeds. Is it only Tamron? I thought it was. [00:44:12] Speaker B: Don't know. [00:44:13] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Tim says it as well. Sigma doesn't support Zedman. Man. What happens when I look? What happens when I don't shoot Nikon? I just lose touch. I thought. Yeah, I thought they had opened it up to both. So they've done a deal with Tamron and. And cut Sigma out. [00:44:27] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:44:28] Speaker A: Interest. [00:44:29] Speaker D: Thank you. [00:44:30] Speaker A: Very interesting. [00:44:32] Speaker B: And just on the ZF news, the Nikon also announced that a new Film Grain feature for the Nikon ZF will be added. We've seen this in other systems. Fuji have been doing it for years where you can, you know, you can customize your JPEGs in camera to add grain and you know, film simulations and things like that. So a future doesn't say when, but a future firmware update will also add the support for the Film Grain feature, which adds grain funnily enough, to images and video. You can choose from three grain sizes and six grain strength levels. So. Yes. Yeah, but just in time for Christmas. [00:45:15] Speaker A: What I always wanted, I shan't be using. Not that I have a problem with it, but it's just something I never use. What else you got? [00:45:25] Speaker B: One very last. Before we hit Rumors, just one very quick thing. Nikon have their C2PA. It's like their credentials and security feature on, you know, to make sure that is it X. Like the data stays attached to the file when an image is taken. It's for authenticity and stuff. And apparently a reader of Nikon Rumors unveiled a huge floor in a huge security risk in it. And so Nikon have rolled back the release of that for the Z6 Mark III, which is quite embarrassing that someone on a rumor site worked it out before Nikon did. [00:46:01] Speaker A: I hope they gave him some free camera gear for sorting that out. [00:46:06] Speaker B: Who knows? Anyway, that's. That's kind of the. The light little sprinkle of news that's going on at the moment. But do you want to talk about rumors, boss? [00:46:15] Speaker A: Sure, let me. Where are we at? Let me get rid of some of these other ones. And see what else I've found. So. Okay, let's just remove this for a minute. So Canon. There's been rumors floating around with Canon. [00:46:31] Speaker B: 4 canon again about. [00:46:35] Speaker A: We can do a different one. No, let's go on. So there's been no fish? No, no, there's no. They're trying to figure out. I was a little. [00:46:44] Speaker B: I couldn't find any news. [00:46:46] Speaker A: How much could they do an X 8th for $1500. [00:46:50] Speaker B: The next 116 get a little bit. [00:46:52] Speaker A: More money, Justin, if you got to. [00:46:55] Speaker D: Do your sound and. Yeah. [00:46:57] Speaker B: Oh yeah. [00:46:58] Speaker A: Oh crap. [00:46:59] Speaker B: Ah, you've mentioned Canon and now Lucinda's paying attention. [00:47:05] Speaker A: Yeah, listen, it's like Canon. Okay, so Canon. There's been rumors floating around for ages at the moment about the R6 Mark III, which seems early because the R6 Mark II didn't come out that long ago. But there's also been really good deals on the R6 Mark II, which can often be a little bit of a signal. But it could be just a midlife kind of, you know, just trying to move some units and compete against the other. The other brands, move people across systems or something. [00:47:38] Speaker B: Or maybe it's a bit of a peace offering given that they've had to put prices up on everything. [00:47:44] Speaker A: I don't think so. I think there's. Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on. But then. So then there was these teasers. Everyone was kind of being like, there's going to be an announcement in September. It's going to be the R6 mark 3. And then other people like, it's not going to be R6 Mark III. But then there's been teasers and it looks like we're getting C50, a cinema, small cinema camera. Let me share this. So. Oh, yeah, it looks like it'll be, yeah, a cinema style C50 and that we won't get because we had the R5C sit alongside the Canon R5. And it was essentially just a cinema version of the R5 with a few differences. Less weather sealing, better cooling, no IBIs. Whereas this is going to compete with Sony's FX line of cameras is the rumor. So that's what I think we're going to see this month. And I don't, I don't think we're going to see the R6 Mark III. But I could be wrong. So Canon has a big event for the launch coming on September 9th. That's tomorrow. [00:48:55] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:48:56] Speaker A: Okay. We might be doing a show tomorrow, greg. If the R6 mark 2 mark 3 comes out, we'll do a show if the C50 comes. Ah, cinema people. They'll figure it out. Yeah, don't worry about that. [00:49:10] Speaker B: What about if they announced the new rumored power shot? [00:49:13] Speaker A: Wow, I had that here. [00:49:17] Speaker B: I don't. [00:49:18] Speaker A: Okay, let. I haven't actually looked at this one much. Let's check it out. We've been told by a past PowerShot source. They've got a past PowerShot source that Canon will be announcing a new model this week. Next week. Next week it will not be a G or V series but a refresh of the PowerShot Elph model. Pocketable 12 times zoom, built in flash. Darn it, I don't care. [00:49:46] Speaker B: Doesn't scream confidence, does it? [00:49:47] Speaker A: Nah. Small sensor, big zoomy lens. [00:49:50] Speaker B: Yep. It's a entry level travel. [00:49:54] Speaker D: Yeah, it's probably supposed to do. [00:49:57] Speaker A: Yeah. Which is good but it's not something I would, I would be looking for. But it's. I mean yeah, they might be trying to make a bit of a comeback but just. Yeah with, with these style cameras. I mean I just can't imagine what that would sell for. [00:50:11] Speaker B: Well, you see how well like other brands are doing in the compact space. Yeah. And I think Canon probably wants a slice of that back because they used to be a really strong contender in the point and shoot space especially and they've let all that go and now all of a sudden the market's demanding smaller, more compact, more capable cameras. [00:50:37] Speaker A: Yeah. Rick says they can't keep the old one in stock. Why make a new one? Are you talking about that, that power shop model, Rick? Maybe they can't keep it in stock because they've been phasing it out for, you know like they've been gearing up for this new one. [00:50:53] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:50:54] Speaker A: Roy thought point and shoot was dead. It is, but it's coming back. He's got to put a thumb winder on it. Oh yeah, the power shot for it. [00:51:04] Speaker B: To appeal to anyone. [00:51:06] Speaker A: Yeah. Okay, we'll see. [00:51:07] Speaker B: Call it a digital film camera. It'll sell. [00:51:09] Speaker A: It'll sell exactly. I mean there's a lot of those coming out the clickster and you know these, they're like 120. [00:51:18] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:51:19] Speaker A: Disposable looking digital film cameras. [00:51:22] Speaker B: And the Yashikas that. [00:51:24] Speaker A: The Yashikas, yeah, tons of them. Anyway, back to Canon, what we are Also seeing is two new lenses including an 85 mil 1.4 VCM coming September 9th tomorrow as well. So that's cool. I mean the 85 will help round out the. So we'll have the 20, the 24 the 35, the 50 and then the 85. All 1.4 is all essentially the same size and weight, which is. And they're refined for video as well as photo, which is why they've got the aperture ring and that'll be nice. [00:52:03] Speaker B: Is this something you'd be interested in picking up? [00:52:06] Speaker A: No, I've never been much of an 85 person. Really? [00:52:09] Speaker B: Yep. [00:52:10] Speaker A: No, I really liked the 105. That was a great focal length which Nikon had. That 151.4 was pretty well. Yeah. [00:52:21] Speaker D: Yeah. It's just beautiful taxa. [00:52:23] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [00:52:25] Speaker A: And. [00:52:27] Speaker B: So. [00:52:28] Speaker A: Yeah. But even then like if. If anything I could probably see myself picking up nick cannons. 135.1.8 if I needed that fast speed for sports, low light sports of some sort. But I'm not really doing anything that warrants that. A 7202.8 can't get the job done with, you know. [00:52:46] Speaker B: Yeah, fair enough. [00:52:49] Speaker A: The other lens is something we haven't started hearing about until recently and we don't know much about it. We believe it will be a full frame lens with a focal length of 11 to 55. We can't say for sure but it might be a power zoom lens similar to. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. [00:53:08] Speaker B: 11 to 55. That's really unique, isn't it? Yeah. Not many people put something. Yeah, that's a super vocal range out. [00:53:18] Speaker A: I mean full frame with a focal of this. That's got to be wrong. 11 to 55. [00:53:24] Speaker B: 11. Who knows? Depends on. [00:53:30] Speaker A: I would believe 11 to 20. [00:53:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:53:35] Speaker A: Not 11 to 55. [00:53:37] Speaker B: Yeah. It's an odd. It's an odd call out, isn't it? [00:53:40] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't. [00:53:41] Speaker B: But let's say they do do it. What would a lens like that mean to people? So you've got something for Astro. You've got something for what? Depends on its aperture, obviously. [00:53:51] Speaker A: Well, that. But that's the thing. You couldn't make that with anything. So they're saying it's similar to this 14 to 30 crop. Is there? There's no way. There's no way something. There's a typo here or something. [00:54:06] Speaker B: Or they're just reporting the rumors. They read it. Maybe someone's screwing with them, maybe their source. [00:54:12] Speaker D: But it's not a time. [00:54:13] Speaker B: At the pub they're going, hey guys, I'll send this to the rumors guy. I'll tell them there's an 11 to 55 coming. Let's see. Let's see them lose their. Over that. Yeah. [00:54:21] Speaker D: Bad rumors are also good for business update. [00:54:25] Speaker A: This could also be a CN E lens. I know a lot about Canon. What is a CN E lens? Cinema. What does that mean? CNN cinema. Yeah, Paul Henderson's right. Like it sounds like an APS C lens 11 to 55. I believe that Sony makes an 11 mil so maybe 1155 could be a thing. I don't think so because just think about the. You know like you can make an 11, an 11 to 20 maybe if you're going crazy but you can't make an 11 to 55. I don't think the. I mean it would be enormous. I don't know. I don't know what this site's on about. Crazy. [00:55:06] Speaker B: Well, we'll wait and see tomorrow. Apparently we'll know. [00:55:09] Speaker A: Rick Nelson says Canon just copying Lumix lenses. LOL. Lumix 18, 24, 35, 50 and 85 primes all the same size 67 mil filter but 1.8. Yeah, exactly. Canon 1.4. What? [00:55:23] Speaker B: Yeah, that's right. And Sigma just redid it with their lens lineup for the BF camera. They just went and re remade all. Every lens in the new black and the new silver. Clean them up a bit. Went from plastic bodies to metal bodies. Similar kind of thing. Like it's. [00:55:38] Speaker A: But not. Not. They're not all the same size though, are they? [00:55:40] Speaker B: No, I don't think so. No. Yeah, I guess not. [00:55:43] Speaker A: That's Canon sort of main thing with this where they're like. [00:55:46] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:55:47] Speaker A: They're. They want them to all be the same weight. So if you're swapping them on a gimbal or whatever. [00:55:54] Speaker B: Yep. [00:55:54] Speaker A: They're all boundless. [00:55:55] Speaker B: Yeah. And if you're using like follow focus and. [00:55:58] Speaker A: Exactly. And all that sort of stuff. I'm not even going to pull this one up because no one cares. But Nikon releasing a. I believe Nikon are releasing a ZR video oriented camera. [00:56:14] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:56:14] Speaker A: Apparently with the rumors being brick shaped video oriented design without a penta prism and evf. A combination of the current Red models Design a Sony FX3 and the Nikon Z30. Okay. [00:56:30] Speaker B: Wow. Sounds Frankenstein much. Yeah. [00:56:34] Speaker A: The features and tech from red will be incorporated inside. It'll have the Z6 III sensor at 24 megapixels, very large LCD screen. [00:56:44] Speaker B: God, I love Lucinda. No one cares. [00:56:49] Speaker A: Checks out a brick. A red potato. Yeah. That it could be that it could be just the worst red that's ever been made. Or it could be the best Nikon video camera that's ever been made. 6K ultra frame compression image stabilization. Oh, it's got IBIs. Boom. One SD and one micro SD card slots. That sounds wrong. [00:57:11] Speaker B: Sounds weird. [00:57:12] Speaker A: There's no chance. [00:57:14] Speaker B: Why? [00:57:15] Speaker A: No, this. These rumor sites suck. I. I don't believe. I don't believe. [00:57:23] Speaker D: All right. [00:57:28] Speaker B: And the only other rumor I saw on. On Canon's front was the RF. 300 to 600. 4.5 to 6. No, 4 to 5.6 is. USM is on the horizon. [00:57:40] Speaker A: Yeah, I think that's still a, like a rumory rumor, but it's been floating. [00:57:45] Speaker B: Around for a bit, hasn't it? [00:57:46] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:57:47] Speaker B: 300. Long time for RF. Yeah. [00:57:49] Speaker A: Yep. [00:57:50] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:57:50] Speaker A: Very relaxed. No. [00:57:54] Speaker D: Why not? [00:57:55] Speaker A: He says that now because it'll be many thousands and I don't need it, so. No, don't need it. Here we go. Have a camera. Have a camera. Rumor site. Ever got anything right? Yeah, when they leak. When the leak. The full thing gets leaked. [00:58:13] Speaker B: But yeah, yeah, I think if it's. It's a spray and pray game for them. If you throw out enough rumors, one of them's going to stick and turn out to be real and then they can be vindicated and. Oh, we heard it here first. Yeah, but there's been a lot of. A lot of crap that, you know, they. They get all worked up about. Say inside source tells us this and then it never happens and they never mention it again. You know, they just let it kind of fade away into the. Into the horizon. [00:58:37] Speaker A: Yeah. Our final rumor takes us to the next segment, actually. And this is one that gets kicked around all the time. DJI mirrorless camera, September 25th. Rumor, fact or fiction? Which takes us to our next segment, which I like to call because I titled it. Oh, you can't even see it. Hang on. There we go. Wait, There we go. [00:59:13] Speaker B: So, professional folks. [00:59:17] Speaker A: Would you buy a DJI mirrorless camera and alm right now? Well, not right now. They don't exist, Jim. But if they brought one out, whose. [00:59:30] Speaker B: Sensor did they steal for this mock up? [00:59:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:59:33] Speaker B: Well, could anyone. Can anyone in the chat or. Or here in the studio, can anyone identify where that lens mount is from? Timu Hasselblad. [00:59:50] Speaker D: You missed. You missed the correct pronunciation earlier. Who was it? I'll find it. [00:59:58] Speaker B: Budget hassle maybe? So what is the rumor, Justin? What. What's the. What's the meat to the bones? [01:00:06] Speaker A: It. I mean, there's just been these rumors for ages that they're. Because they. They made. They made a pretty crazy. What was it called? The. The video camera that they made with the crazy gimbal thing that you could run around with the Zen muse. Was that it? I can't remember what it was called. They made that one. [01:00:26] Speaker B: It's pronounced full frame camera. [01:00:29] Speaker A: Zamu. And you know, they've got the, the pockets and stuff there is. So yeah, this is the thing. Yeah, the 4D thing Eric's talking about. So they made that like, that took, that had L mount lens. They've had drones that have had interchangeable lenses. And there's always been this rumor, you know, that got Hasselblad. It's like, what if they just went head to head on like a full frame camera with our mount lens that's already got a ton of options and stuff available. And what would happen? Like, could they make a camera that blows everyone's socks off? And we saw it. We saw them do it in the bike industry. Yeah, they just come out, they come out and leapfrogged every E bike motor and battery brand that was on the market with their first product with tech. And, and they haven't so far haven't had reliability issues or anything. Like it's. [01:01:28] Speaker B: Yeah, it. [01:01:29] Speaker A: Could they do the same thing and, and, and jump to the front of the line in full frame cameras. And if they did, how good would the camera have to be for one of you guys to shoot with a DJI instead of Fujifilm or Nikon? How much better would it have to be for you to make the jump to a dji? [01:01:55] Speaker B: I don't know. I'd have to wait for a couple of generations. I wouldn't make sure I wouldn't. Yeah, because it's got to have lenses, right? No, no, no. [01:02:06] Speaker A: Like you said, a couple of generations, I meant like grandkids. [01:02:10] Speaker B: Yeah, that's what I meant. No, you know what I mean, I wouldn't, I wouldn't leap to it on the first entry. Yeah, because you'd want to see what sort of support they're going to put into it, whether it's going to work. Like there's been lots of one off. [01:02:24] Speaker A: Okay. [01:02:24] Speaker B: Cameras have been released over the years. It never, never follows through. [01:02:28] Speaker A: Yeah, but also, I guess. Okay, well, they sell truckloads of pocket three Osmo pocket threes at like 900 bucks each. Okay, let's go a different direction. What price camera would people take a chance on from dji? [01:02:49] Speaker D: It probably depends if they're already running L mount lenses. [01:02:53] Speaker B: Yeah, if they're running, that's probably the difference. [01:02:56] Speaker A: Well, they're, aren't they? Part of the thing. They've done L mounts in the past. [01:03:01] Speaker D: The alliance that's what I mean. Like if you've already got L mount lenses and maybe trying it wouldn't be so bad. But if you don't, then it's going to be an expensive try. [01:03:13] Speaker A: Oh, Nev. Nev sent me some images to review later. Easier than pulling from Facebook. Oh, thank you. [01:03:21] Speaker B: Thanks, mate. [01:03:21] Speaker A: Lucinda? Yeah, we're sending snaps. Yeah, do it. Email. Email me if you've got a couple of photos. We'll have time at the end of the show. What time is it? Yeah, easy. Send me a couple of photos to justin. Justinuckystraps.com that I you. But you need to send them in the next four minute. Four minute. Six minutes. The next six minutes. Just one or two. Don't go crazy. Okay. Rick Nelson reckons 2,000 to $4,000 is the, is the. That's the point where people might take a chance. [01:03:54] Speaker B: I mean, okay, it depends, there's too many factors. [01:03:58] Speaker A: But if you were an L, if you were already an L mount shooter, you'd be far more likely to give it a go. You're not changing your kit and you've got lenses already, you know, so you're like, you could just buy this body and give it a roll and worst case to sell the body. But it's not like you're changing from Nick on to a whole new. [01:04:20] Speaker B: Well, it depends if they market it as a Hasselblad with DJI Tech or a DJI camera with Hasselblad Optics. [01:04:27] Speaker A: Let's. Let's pretend it's a DJI Camp brand. The brand is dji. [01:04:31] Speaker B: Dji. Dji. [01:04:33] Speaker A: Sorry. Yeah, but yeah, let's pretend because if it was Hasselblad, that's different. That's like, you know, that's got the pedigree name that people trust despite whoever owns it. Whereas I'm talking about the name is dji. Same as their drones and stuff. And I mean people. Yeah. [01:04:53] Speaker B: I reckon they'd be foolish to go after the full frame market. They do marvelous things with smaller sensors. Why wouldn't they stick to their strengths? [01:05:01] Speaker A: Because they have to develop new lenses? [01:05:03] Speaker B: No, but full frame would. Oh, yeah, I guess. Yeah. [01:05:05] Speaker A: I'm just thinking because they've got that. I mean. [01:05:08] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:05:08] Speaker A: Or am I crazy? Do they not have access to the L Man Alliance? Did they do email for their drone? [01:05:17] Speaker B: I can't remember. [01:05:19] Speaker D: I have no idea. [01:05:26] Speaker B: Yeah. Bruce has raised a good point. He said that it would be silly to have DGI with all the crap in the usa, probably massive market that they might be locked out of. So We've heard rumors over the. We've heard news stories and rumors that we've shared with you guys here about. At one point, the American Congress were looking to ban DGI drones. [01:05:49] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:05:50] Speaker B: From the US because of the whole concern that they were using it to spy on Americans flying their drones at the beach. [01:05:58] Speaker A: That's another rumor that I saw here is. So they were talking about there's drones coming and potentially an Osmo Pocket 4. [01:06:12] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:06:13] Speaker A: And I think that's what, like, these rumors always kick up about this L Mount. Yeah, they did. They joined the L Mount alliance in. In 2022. Yeah. The Zen Muse used L Mount. I was positive I wasn't dreaming, so. And. And these rumors always kick up when there's a release coming that people aren't positive about what it's going to be. [01:06:34] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:06:34] Speaker A: And. And then it always ends up being like, because I think there's rumors got. [01:06:38] Speaker B: A gun approach, isn't it? [01:06:39] Speaker A: Yeah. And. And. And it's a hope and pray, you know, because it's like, well, wouldn't it be crazy if they made like an epic camera that, you know, with tech no one's ever done before and. Because that's the kind of stuff that DJ I try and do. But I think there's rumors that there's a 360 drone coming to compete with the 360 drone that Insta360 are making, even though they're saying it's under a different brand that they incubated. I hate when companies do that. Oh, yeah, it's not Insta360. We incubated it within Insta360 and it's a separate brand called Anti gravity, but it's Insta360 and it uses the Insta360 cameras. It's a drone company anyway. And So I think DJI DJI are bringing out a 360 drone. I think they're bringing out a new mini Pro 5 maybe. And then, yeah. Osmo Pocket 4. It's like, September, October is probably gonna have a few announcements from dji, and I don't think it's gonna be. [01:07:37] Speaker B: I would be less surprised if DJI DJI paired with a phone company to make a phone. To make a phone with camera tech in it. [01:07:48] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:07:49] Speaker B: It just feels like it's much more their market. [01:07:52] Speaker A: Hey, that's a good point. [01:07:53] Speaker D: Some propellers. [01:07:54] Speaker B: What did you say? Sorry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can find. [01:08:01] Speaker D: Back to you. [01:08:03] Speaker A: It hovers around and then when you get a call, it just hovers over near your ear and you talk and then it goes that way again. [01:08:09] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:08:10] Speaker A: The DJI phone drone. You heard it here first on the camera podcast. The phone drone, yeah. Yes. Okay, you've all come. Yeah. Bruce. Yep. L mount for the 4D and the Zenmuse X9, which is the same, same, same kind of thing. And Rick Nelson says, where is the gap in the full frame market? That's where we need to look. I know. Is there a gap? [01:08:35] Speaker B: Is there a gap? Don't know. Maybe more affordable options. [01:08:46] Speaker A: I mean, there's some pretty affordable full frames. Canon R8, like two grand or whatever. [01:08:53] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:08:53] Speaker A: Epic. [01:08:54] Speaker B: I don't know, I just think they could get. They could underwrite an undercut Canon and, and Nikon a bit if they kept it more cost effective. [01:09:03] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:09:04] Speaker B: For just, you know, not for pros, but with, yeah. [01:09:09] Speaker A: Less features and almost like if you took that Sigma BF and instead of making it epic out of, you know, a block of machined aluminium, make it cheap but less, less mechanical inputs, less. You know, keep it really sleek though, with a great design, but just not. Don't make it out of premium materials. [01:09:29] Speaker B: And then release it with a bunch of accessories like gimbals. You know, release it with a really. [01:09:33] Speaker A: Cool gimbal, the microphones pair straight to it. All that stuff, it all works together. Yeah, yeah. Like a vlogging. A high end vlogging. [01:09:43] Speaker B: Probably more. Yeah, People would probably flock to it more for that reason if it was, you know, influencer friendly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. [01:09:53] Speaker A: Thanks Tony. For the 299. Tony got distracted building his SIM rig. He got a heap of boxes delivered to his house to. With all these monitors and his race car steering. Oh, cool stuff. He's. Yeah, he's getting ready to go crazy. [01:10:08] Speaker B: Nice work. Nice work, Tony. [01:10:10] Speaker A: That's really important. [01:10:11] Speaker D: Six months. [01:10:12] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [01:10:15] Speaker B: We'll just have to send him a pizza once a week to make sure he eats something. [01:10:18] Speaker A: Yeah. All right, I'm gonna try and figure out. Oh yeah. Got a few people sending pictures in. [01:10:25] Speaker B: I've got a few I want to show. [01:10:27] Speaker A: Yes, perfect. So is that enough for the about talking about dji? Do we move on? Do you want to. Let's move on to hang on your images. You can show yours while I get these other ones sorted out. [01:10:39] Speaker B: Oh, gee, thanks. [01:10:41] Speaker A: What? [01:10:43] Speaker B: I'm just the entree before the main meal. [01:10:47] Speaker A: You're the professional. [01:10:48] Speaker B: I'm not a professional. Don't call me that. People have expectations of me. Okay, so the floor is mine. Let's get rid of that garbage. That DJI garbage. What Do I want to. Do I want to show some images? So some of you will be follow. Had been following my lackluster journey into macro photography. I went and got myself a Cygnus Tech diffuser, I got myself a Fujifilm macro lens and I got myself a new flash for. This is my macro kit. So this just stays the way it is now because I've got two Fujifilm cameras now. [01:11:27] Speaker D: So Gary Fong, for anyone that doesn't. Doesn't know. [01:11:31] Speaker B: Yeah, pretty much. Cygnus Tech is made by an Aussie, a small, small business, Aussie owned small business and he makes these to size. So basically when you order the Cygnus Tech diffuser, you tell him what camera, what macro lens and what flash you're using and he will build the perfect kit to suit exactly what you're shooting with. So it all fits and it works perfectly. It's so good. Anyway, I hadn't really done much other than sort of tinkering around. Yeah, the Fong. Other than tinkering around. Tinkering around home, showing off some images, capturing some images. Just. Yeah, nothing really kind of serious. But I went out on the weekend and decided to take some actual photos. So I've actually got something to show you. So this is with the Fujifilm XE4, a Godox TT350 for Fujifilm and the Fujifilm XF 30mm f 2.8 macro lens. And I, I had a lot of fun. I only went out for an hour, couldn't find a bloody insect anywhere. I had managed to photograph a couple, but I didn't even realize they were in the shots. Go figure. And then I'll walk out the door today to go. I walk past us through the same park and I didn't have my camera with me and I saw dragonflies, butterflies, beetles just walking along the ground like they belong there. And some bees. It's like Murphy's Law. [01:13:03] Speaker A: And you. Yeah, well, you gotta always take it with you. [01:13:06] Speaker B: You do? Yeah, it's fair call, boss. [01:13:11] Speaker D: Everywhere though, it's hard to take that thing everywhere. [01:13:14] Speaker B: That, that's a. Yeah, it's a thong. Just the Fujifong. [01:13:18] Speaker D: The phone doesn't really fit in your pocket, which kind of defies the point of owning a Fuji. [01:13:23] Speaker B: Greg. Oh, shut up. Just shut up. All right? That's not true. [01:13:28] Speaker D: No, if it doesn't fit in your pocket. [01:13:32] Speaker B: Whatever. Oh. So I'm just going to cycle through some of these shots. This was just. That was a lemon. Yeah, that was one of my partner sessions. Lemons hanging. It's the only lemon, I think, that's hanging off the. What's left of the lemon tree at the front. [01:13:51] Speaker A: Has it got a disease or something? [01:13:53] Speaker B: Yeah. I showed her this photo. She went, oh, oh, that's got a disease. Probably shouldn't eat that one. But yeah, just, just, Just experimenting in my local hood. [01:14:11] Speaker A: Can you guys hear my computer doing those stuff? [01:14:15] Speaker B: No. Nah. [01:14:16] Speaker A: Cool. Okay, good. [01:14:17] Speaker D: I thought someone was eating a. Like a. Sounds like someone was eating with a bowl, hitting a fork against the bowl. [01:14:25] Speaker B: So, yeah, I just went for sort of. And I edited all of these with Fujifilm simulations. It's going for a bit of a grungy look. That was. I just found a rotting lemon. Wasn't one of Sasha's. It was someone else's this time. Lemons everywhere. No, it's a lemon that's rotting. Like it's covered in mold. It was just sitting on the. On the, on the bitumen. [01:14:46] Speaker A: You're really finding a niche. [01:14:47] Speaker B: Greg Lemons. [01:14:50] Speaker A: Mouldy lemons. [01:14:51] Speaker D: When life gives Greg lemons, he takes. [01:14:54] Speaker A: Close up photos of them. [01:14:56] Speaker D: Yeah, he makes art. [01:14:58] Speaker A: Oh, a bit of a competitor to your macro. Has it just been coming to my inbox there? Whatever, Greg. [01:15:05] Speaker B: Just give me my moment. Okay, let me have my moment. All of you. And I actually started using a little bit of sepia for some of the editing. And, you know, no one uses sepia anymore, but. [01:15:17] Speaker D: So these all shot with the phong on or. Phong. [01:15:19] Speaker B: Yeah. No, all with the phong on. Yeah. This is one of my favorites. The thing I love about this diffuser is it just obliterates the background. Like everything just goes dark. And so you get this beautiful natural framing. [01:15:38] Speaker D: So you're underexposing, like a fair bit. [01:15:41] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. [01:15:43] Speaker A: And then. And so you get the dark frame, but then you also get enough light that you can go for a fairly deep aperture because you're so close. [01:15:51] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:15:51] Speaker A: So what are you talking? [01:15:54] Speaker B: Anywhere between F8 and F16. [01:15:56] Speaker A: Whoa. That's on a crop sensor too. On full frame. That'd be like F22. [01:16:01] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. It's a lot. But the trickiest thing is, is to make. Because the. The. The lens, to keep the. To keep the Cygnus tech diffuser on, I've got to have the lens hood on. And that lens has such a close focus focal distance, minimum focal distance that you can almost touch your subject with. With the, with the hood, the lens hood. That's how close you can get. Like it's. It's a little counterproductive in some ways because sometimes like I'll take five shots and not have the subject in where I want in the frame because I'm. I'm eyeballing from the side because I can't see anything through the viewfinder. [01:16:39] Speaker A: Just. [01:16:41] Speaker B: Yeah, and so. And they've got this massive diffuser in front of you so when you're trying to compose you can't see a thing. [01:16:48] Speaker D: Does the Fuji have a setting that. A flash setting? [01:16:53] Speaker B: What do you mean? Like ttl? [01:16:55] Speaker D: No. So like my Nikon has a flash setting. So obviously normally the EVF or the screen will show you the exposure that you've set. But when my flash is on or my like my trigger, my Godox trigger, it'll then just give me like a mid level screen range. So it's not perfect but you can at least see what you want. [01:17:20] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm not sure. [01:17:22] Speaker A: Yeah, so it's called Display Simulation on Canon. Basically it simulates an optical viewfinder. You know an optical viewfinder on dslr you can see whatever the light is like what you could do with the human eye, regardless if you've got your camera closed right down or whatever. And it basically does that with the screen. It'll. It'll have that setting for sure. It's odd. Usually it kicks it into it automatically if you've got. Yeah, it wasn't the flash on and your screen's like black. [01:17:50] Speaker B: I'll do some research. Thanks lads. Thanks. [01:17:52] Speaker D: One didn't do it until I changed the setting. [01:17:55] Speaker B: Yeah, I probably just. I haven't looked at it. [01:17:57] Speaker A: Have you got the phong in the room with you now, Greg? [01:17:59] Speaker B: Yeah, it's right here. [01:18:00] Speaker A: Did you show it? [01:18:02] Speaker D: Yeah, his head down. You weren't, you weren't looking. He showed us there. [01:18:06] Speaker B: Did you say that's big. [01:18:08] Speaker A: How do you find it? Like is it hard on your wrists or anything holding that up or is it all right? [01:18:12] Speaker B: Because that's just. It's just plastic like. [01:18:15] Speaker A: Well not that but like the flash like just getting used to that. Oh yeah, New kit, like is it annoying or is it. [01:18:20] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm not used to carrying this much weight because I usually looks like. [01:18:24] Speaker A: A dog that's been to the vet. [01:18:26] Speaker B: It doesn't fit. Doesn't it? Yeah, stop it licking itself. Yeah, it's the Fijifong. [01:18:33] Speaker D: What's that thing on the front of your camera, Greg, on the front of your lens? [01:18:36] Speaker B: Where? [01:18:37] Speaker D: The black thing? [01:18:39] Speaker B: It's called a hood. [01:18:41] Speaker A: Oh, he's talking about the lens cap. Yeah, we don't use those exactly. It's a Cone of shame. [01:18:51] Speaker B: Shut up. I can't put it back on anyway, so. Yeah, got a few more. I went for, like, really dark, kind of gritty with this. [01:19:02] Speaker D: You're not sure. [01:19:04] Speaker B: What. Did he turn it off? [01:19:05] Speaker A: Sorry. No, no, I'll bring it back. There you go. [01:19:09] Speaker D: I can see the little square down the bottom, but no one else can. [01:19:12] Speaker A: There we go. Sorry, guys. [01:19:14] Speaker B: Let me just go back a couple because I'm sure you're dying to see them. I just really loved the process. I just really enjoyed seeing how. How it worked and testing it out and, you know, playing around with settings and getting to understand what my camera will do in certain lighting and with certain settings dialed in. So, yeah, it's been a really fun experience and I'm looking forward to getting back out again soon to do some more. [01:19:43] Speaker D: Are you shooting with, like, TTL flash? Are you shooting manual flash? [01:19:48] Speaker B: I did this lot with ttl and the next slot I'm going to play around with manual. [01:19:52] Speaker D: So, yeah, it's worked really well. Yeah, like, underexposing. It's actually. I think it's worked exceptionally well. [01:20:00] Speaker B: Thanks, Jim. [01:20:02] Speaker A: Macromies. [01:20:04] Speaker B: The macro. Thanks, Crackers. [01:20:08] Speaker A: Macromies. [01:20:09] Speaker B: I really like doing the sepia tone on these, you know, images of plant life because it almost made it feel a bit scientific and almost like you're looking at something that's been, like, zoomed in on with a microscope. [01:20:22] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:20:23] Speaker B: You know how sometimes you see that. That kind of. That weird kind of tonals and patterns. [01:20:29] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:20:29] Speaker B: I don't know. It just. I just. It just. It just. It sang to me. [01:20:35] Speaker A: I like that you're diving into a new thing and you can explore a whole new little world. [01:20:41] Speaker B: Yeah. Literally. Quite literally. And like this. I didn't even know those bugs were on that plant when I took that shot because I couldn't see a thing. It wasn't until I got back home and I started editing them that I went, oh, there's actually. There is some. Some insect life and there. You can see them there a lot better with the green. But again, it was fun building, like, compositions, like, trying to think, okay, well, if I can get that, like, I. [01:21:08] Speaker A: Would study this, like in the background on this one. Yeah. The other flower. For a little bit of context. Yeah. You know, and. Yeah. [01:21:16] Speaker B: Yeah. Just to kind of. And remove this, because otherwise it could look a little too sterile if it's just pure black. Perfectly placed subject. [01:21:23] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:21:24] Speaker B: But this kind of adds a bit of. A bit of narrative to it that actually this is, you know, there's something greater than what's in front of us here. [01:21:34] Speaker D: So is this just on a walk that you've gone on, Greg, or in your garden? [01:21:38] Speaker B: No, it's just down the road at the end of my street. There's like this little park that we take Hazel, our dog, to. And like, it's tiny. It's like, I don't know, 10, 15 meters squared. So parks in South Yara are very small, some of them. And yeah, I just. I just basically just spent the time there just wandering around sort of. Yes. Looking at plants. So, yeah, I had a lot of fun. This. Now this one here is probably my favorite. I don't know what these are. There's some sort of seed. There's some that were closed. And this one I think is already opened. But it just kind of reminded me of some sort of character being blown away in the wind. You know, they're kind of leaning back into it and like when your hair gets blown back. Well, I wouldn't know anymore. Obviously Crackers would with his beard. But yeah, this was one of my favorite shots because it just kind of. It felt like it had motion and. And the film stem I went for kind of softened the. The extreme green that was the grass in the background. [01:22:42] Speaker D: Yeah, but it's nice. So it's got a bit of color in the background. Yeah, if it was just black, it would. [01:22:47] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:22:47] Speaker D: Just be lacking a little bit. [01:22:49] Speaker B: Yeah. And it's. And you know, and it's a complex kind of pattern. Like there's this, like. But it's not quite defined as to what it is. Yeah, I really enjoyed playing around with that sort of stuff. [01:22:59] Speaker D: But as funny as your. Your hood is, it does. It's actually. The light is quite nice. [01:23:07] Speaker B: Yeah, it's really effective. And the guy that makes Cygnus Tech, like I said, he's just a. He's just an Aussie bloke who. Who does this sort of thing. Like, just came up with the concept and the design and. And all of the YouTube stuff I've been watching about. Macro. Everyone is using the sickness tech now. Yeah, it's so good. So. So, yeah, anyway, that's. That's my first effort at macro. [01:23:31] Speaker A: Cool. [01:23:32] Speaker B: There is a little bug in there too. So. [01:23:34] Speaker D: Came to see it. [01:23:37] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:23:38] Speaker B: Yeah. I'm not sure what it is, but. But the detail is really nice. I don't know if you can see it here on the screen, but. [01:23:47] Speaker A: The Oracle. David Leporati says Fujifilm camera setting, preview, expand, exposure, slash, white balance in manual mode. [01:23:57] Speaker B: Say that again. [01:23:58] Speaker A: Preview, Exposure, slash, white balance in Manual mode Preview exposure. [01:24:03] Speaker B: Okay, cool. [01:24:04] Speaker A: Try that. Or if it's not that. Yeah, there'll be something like that for flash for sure so that you can see an estimate. It won't be. It'll just be like it just cranks the ISO up so you can see something and it'll look noisy and stuff but then when you take the shot it'll be your flash lit shot. [01:24:22] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, it's just literally to compose. That's where I was having the trouble. But thanks David. I'll have a crack at that. [01:24:28] Speaker A: Yeah, he's got the Exposure Preview set as a custom button. Smart. [01:24:31] Speaker B: Oh that's a clever idea. Yeah, well I can do that because this, this is just going to be my macro rig now. You know, I'm just going to leave it set up because it's. And I might even take it to befop to bright because I think there might be some opportunity there when I get. Get out and about. I might find some stuff that's worth shooting. So I thought I'd bring it with me. [01:24:50] Speaker A: Bruce Moles says need to add googly eyes. I assume he means to everything that. [01:24:55] Speaker D: You take photos of. [01:24:56] Speaker B: Okay. [01:24:57] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, that was. [01:25:01] Speaker B: Yeah, I was pretty happy with it. [01:25:02] Speaker A: We'll try and get him on the show. Bruce. We did, we did ask the Cygnus tech guy. [01:25:07] Speaker B: Yes. Down the track he said now's not a good time for him. So we'll, we'll come back to that. [01:25:12] Speaker D: No worries. [01:25:13] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:25:14] Speaker A: All right. [01:25:15] Speaker B: There you go. Who sent us photos? [01:25:18] Speaker A: Yeah, I've got some photos. We're running out of time so let's hit it. Let's do this thing. [01:25:25] Speaker B: Subtle way of saying I took too long but you know you'd be passive aggressive. That's fine. [01:25:31] Speaker A: Stop sharing that. Share this. Share screen, Window this and share. Bring it up now. I'll try and make mine the right size. Silence. Okay. [01:25:55] Speaker B: Oh wow. Who sent this one in? [01:25:58] Speaker A: Rick Nelson. Let me see if there was any comments with it. Otherwise if he's listening he can bring the comments to the comments photo. This photo is Mugara Dam in Queensland. A two hour road trip I made for this photo last month. I was there in March and it was a clear blue, boring skies of no interest. So many landscape options here but I needed this angle. This angle in the bag myself. Made a YouTube video of getting it. Oh cool. I have to check it out. What's your. Is it on your Rick Nelson YouTube page? After scope that out. I like it. [01:26:41] Speaker B: Yeah, the color is beautiful. [01:26:44] Speaker A: Nice reflections. All right, let's go to. [01:26:50] Speaker B: Nice shot, Rick. Really nice shot, Rick. That's a Nev Clark if ever I've seen one. [01:26:56] Speaker A: It's a Nev Clark. Let me bring this up. Gosh, my lightroom's just not configured for this show. I'm getting there, guys. [01:27:05] Speaker D: That's struggling. [01:27:07] Speaker A: I'm getting there. It's. It's also going from, like, panorama kind of crop to the GFX 3, 4. I like that one. [01:27:21] Speaker B: Oh, wow. That's nice. That's nice. [01:27:24] Speaker A: Who's that jetty for? It's, like, tiny. It's narrow. Walk down there. Yeah. Jetty for ants. What is this? You guys make him weird over in wa. Yeah. Was this. This was icm. Was it Nev that first one? Or was it the ocean moving? Was you moving? [01:27:49] Speaker B: It's an old boat jetty. [01:27:51] Speaker A: An old wooden ship. [01:27:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:27:56] Speaker A: Yeah. These are so good. So I assume when you buy a GFX system, it just. You just get stuff like this. Yeah, it just does it for you. [01:28:04] Speaker B: Well, these. Now, these are the images that are preloaded, so. [01:28:10] Speaker A: You just export them out. [01:28:11] Speaker B: Just staring up. [01:28:12] Speaker D: Nev. Like the photo frame with the pictures in it already. [01:28:16] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. It's just. Yeah, Just choose your own adventure. Oh, that's cool. [01:28:21] Speaker D: Canola. [01:28:22] Speaker A: I love it. I can't even peep his settings. He stripped all his settings out. One of those. Trying to steal his secrets. [01:28:30] Speaker B: He's been loving his drone shots lately, too. Seeing a lot of his drone work. [01:28:35] Speaker A: Yeah, I really like that. [01:28:43] Speaker B: There's always a sense of journey with. With Ned's work, don't you find? [01:28:47] Speaker A: I think it's because he goes on these little. Little road trips and stuff to explore. [01:28:51] Speaker B: Yeah, but there's always a path to, like. There's always a. Like, it leads you somewhere. When you're in somewhere, it draws you into the frame, and it makes you sort of see beyond what's just in the foreground or, you know, whatever it may be. But, yeah, that's me just being artsy Fartsy, everyone. [01:29:08] Speaker A: That chat's loving it. Rick Nelson drone shots just hit different. They do. They do. All right, let's move on to Lucinda. Nice work, Nev. Nice work, Nev. Look at these colors. Let's see what we were shooting on. Very nice. Yeah, Very nice. [01:29:37] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [01:29:41] Speaker A: Probably had a lucky strap attached to it. [01:29:43] Speaker B: Yeah, no doubt. [01:29:45] Speaker A: Yeah. R5.2. Yeah. What about this one? [01:29:48] Speaker B: Yeah, that's really cool. [01:29:55] Speaker A: Perfectly in focus on the face. [01:29:57] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [01:29:59] Speaker A: But that's at ISO 8000. At a 60th one. Not 160th. Sorry, 160th of a second. Which is fairly slow for. [01:30:11] Speaker B: Fairly slow for that. [01:30:12] Speaker A: Freezing. Yeah, well done. [01:30:15] Speaker B: Yep. Smart ass. [01:30:17] Speaker A: Yeah, well done. Welcome to my life. Yeah. Welcome to my life. Yeah. Duck, duck, duck, duck, duck. Flipping his hair. Oh, it was a hair flip. I thought it was like a wild screaming solo. [01:30:31] Speaker B: I thought it was about sneeze. [01:30:36] Speaker A: Oh, that's cool. [01:30:40] Speaker B: Yeah, that's awesome. [01:30:42] Speaker A: Very cool attitude. Geez. Those R5 Mark II files are just wonderful. Splendid. All right, Lisa Leach. [01:31:01] Speaker B: Nice work, Lucinda. [01:31:03] Speaker A: Yeah, well done. Lucinda out there. Just doing work. Getting it done. Professional. [01:31:07] Speaker B: Yep. To rock. [01:31:18] Speaker A: Looking at the settings. Look. Whoa. So much detail. Yeah, I love when I get big files and I can. I can peep in on what was happening. Bit of movement. [01:31:30] Speaker B: Yep. [01:31:30] Speaker A: Very nice. [01:31:32] Speaker B: Really lovely. [01:31:35] Speaker A: Fancy rainbow. [01:31:39] Speaker B: More played. [01:31:41] Speaker A: Where'd she say? She said that. Where were these wa. [01:31:45] Speaker B: Yeah. Nev Saying he knows that spot. [01:31:46] Speaker A: Well, he knows that spot. [01:31:48] Speaker B: Sugarloaf. He said Sugar Life. [01:31:51] Speaker A: Yeah. Well done. [01:31:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:31:55] Speaker D: Neil Leach said nice shots, Lisa. [01:31:58] Speaker B: Yeah, but he has to say that, doesn't he? We've all been there. Come on now. We're joking, Lisa. These are beautiful shots. [01:32:07] Speaker D: Yeah, beautiful. [01:32:10] Speaker A: F14 on the Z7 with the 24 to 70 F4s. Beautiful. [01:32:19] Speaker B: Very cool. [01:32:20] Speaker A: Right. David Leporardi. Oh, my gosh. [01:32:25] Speaker B: Jesus. [01:32:29] Speaker D: Not something you see every day. [01:32:30] Speaker A: Yeah, these are always. [01:32:34] Speaker D: That's the boat just off the table. [01:32:36] Speaker A: I know. Yeah, but like, look at the. Yeah, look at the framing. [01:32:39] Speaker B: Yeah, it's just like perfect empty spot in the. In the. In the frame. [01:32:44] Speaker A: That is insane. [01:32:47] Speaker B: Well played. Very well played, David. [01:32:51] Speaker A: Oh, my gosh. [01:32:52] Speaker B: What was that shot with? Do we know? [01:32:54] Speaker A: It doesn't have any data. Probably film. Knowing David, it's probably wet plate. [01:33:05] Speaker D: In 1987. [01:33:06] Speaker A: Yeah, I wish. I need to get a sound effect of highway to the Taint design for whenever David Leporati brings photos on highway to. [01:33:20] Speaker C: Yeah. [01:33:20] Speaker B: Don't ever do that again. [01:33:21] Speaker A: I get. I'll get the music. It'll be better next time. [01:33:24] Speaker B: Yeah, I'd rather get copyrighted. [01:33:26] Speaker D: Yeah, I was gonna say we'll get copyrighted. [01:33:29] Speaker A: If it's just a quick sound thing. Ah, crazy. Yeah. Cue the top guns out. Exactly these nuts. Okay. Mamiya 345, 80 mil, standard lens, VPS film. [01:33:42] Speaker B: Wow. It was film. [01:33:43] Speaker A: Nuts. Nuts. That's all right. What else we got? Infrared. [01:33:51] Speaker B: Is it? No, I don't think it is. Or is it? Well said, Grant. [01:34:05] Speaker A: Thank you. Turn it off now. After Justin singing. Well, whatever. Yeah, it's my show. [01:34:11] Speaker D: Where Are you Grant? Why don't you jump on? [01:34:13] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't know. Is this. Yeah. So black and white, infrared. I thought so. On the 400d, 40d, 400d. I should have got an infrared camera done in time for bfop. I'm an idiot. Not enough time. It's like an eight week wait to get it converted. Oh, look at this. David Leporardi, he's out macroing Greg in his. [01:34:43] Speaker B: Wow. That's amazing. You found a bug. I couldn't find any bugs. Yeah, that's pretty nice. Yeah, that's very sharp. [01:34:52] Speaker A: I would say there's got to be. There's a thing with the macro with the bugs, isn't there? Where you want the wings. You want to be able to see the motion blur in the wings, but have everything else frozen. Is that a thing? Is that like. [01:35:02] Speaker B: It is. [01:35:03] Speaker A: Yeah. Okay. [01:35:04] Speaker B: When it's getting anything sharp is nice. Especially when it's an insect. Like, you know, because you have. They're so unpredictable and you have no control. [01:35:13] Speaker A: It's probably not. It's probably not translating too well for you guys. But, like, it's sharp. [01:35:18] Speaker D: Yeah, it looks pretty sharp here. [01:35:20] Speaker B: Yeah, there's a. I think he's a kid. Like, he's really young. He's shooting Macro. I can't remember where he was. Might be Western Australia. And he's doing those little. You know, the little peacock spiders that kind of throw up their. They kind of throw up their back legs to make themselves look bigger. And they've got this colorful plume that comes up. You ever seen them? [01:35:40] Speaker A: No. [01:35:40] Speaker B: I have to find an image for you. Next time. They're amazing. Yeah. A lot of people are photographing them, but. [01:35:47] Speaker A: Yeah. Okay, well, you'll have to get onto it. [01:35:50] Speaker B: I will, I will, Justin. As soon as we're done here. [01:35:56] Speaker A: Oh, cool. More film. [01:36:03] Speaker B: Now he's just showing off. Yeah, but rightly so. [01:36:08] Speaker A: What sort of plane do you have, David? I assume you've got your own. [01:36:16] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:36:16] Speaker B: What are you shooting at? Is it at the back of like a, you know, like a bigger Air Force plane? Like, you see them do it where they lower the. The. The back of the. [01:36:27] Speaker D: At the Hercules. [01:36:29] Speaker B: That's the one. Thank you. [01:36:30] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:36:30] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:36:31] Speaker D: I feel like he told us last time, though. [01:36:33] Speaker A: Yeah, but this. Well, that. He said last time he was out of the cockpit of another one. But this one from this angle. I don't know how that would work. Neil, Drone shot. Yeah. DJ High Mini. Hang on. No, no. Plane. RAAF photographer. [01:36:52] Speaker B: Oh, that's right. [01:36:52] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:36:54] Speaker B: So he Was just in another Air Force plane. [01:36:58] Speaker A: But you weren't. You weren't in no plane. Okay. Yeah, here we go. Shot from the back of an RIF transport. Oh, that's so cool. [01:37:06] Speaker B: Yep. Yeah, that's pretty epic. [01:37:12] Speaker A: And I think that's it. Unless. Has anyone in the chat, if you're listening, if anyone has sent me photos that I've missed, let me know. Worst case, we can bring them up next week, but I think I've got everybody. And speaking of next week, if you're listening now and you want to send some photos in, just email them to justinuckystraps.com and we can bring them up on next Monday's show. [01:37:34] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, cool. [01:37:38] Speaker A: Just do it. Join us. Have some fun. Maybe I'll even show some images on Monday. I'll get some of my New Zealand ones done. [01:37:46] Speaker B: Well, I see some of Yelena's New Zealand ones too. [01:37:50] Speaker D: See if I can. [01:37:50] Speaker A: See if I can talk her into it. [01:37:52] Speaker B: Yeah, go on, get her on the show. [01:37:54] Speaker A: She's been going through them, but I gotta get her editing some. But my lightroom keeps kicking me out of. It's on too many computers now, so. [01:38:03] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. [01:38:04] Speaker A: Which is frustrating because they're all my computers. I should be able to have it on as many of my computers as I want. [01:38:11] Speaker B: Wow. The white privilege is showing a syndicate. [01:38:15] Speaker A: To have lightroom on three. Three computers instead of two. [01:38:18] Speaker B: Yep. [01:38:20] Speaker A: New Zealand special. It might be. We'll see. I don't know if I have time between now and Monday to. To get them done, but maybe next. [01:38:27] Speaker D: Doesn't have to be. It doesn't have to be Monday. It could be sometime. [01:38:30] Speaker B: Yeah, we'll see. Indeed. [01:38:33] Speaker A: What else? Is that it we calling it? [01:38:35] Speaker B: Yeah, I think we might. But yeah. Thanks everyone for sending your photos in. That's really cool. I love it. I love that we do that. [01:38:42] Speaker A: Yeah, we're gonna crank it up. [01:38:44] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:38:44] Speaker A: Maybe we'll start giving prizes away for, like a random draw for someone for people that send images in. [01:38:55] Speaker B: That'd be fun. [01:38:56] Speaker A: I wouldn't kick Elena off if her photos are better than mine. Never wouldn't do that, Grant. I just wouldn't bring her on the first place. Sorry. [01:39:08] Speaker D: She doesn't want to. Come on. [01:39:10] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:39:12] Speaker A: Very cool. Thanks, everybody.

It's from. It's not A photo photo. But actually it ended up in my inbox and I haven't replied to the email yet. I'm going to do it tomorrow. But Jay Shannon, otherwise known as Jason Hannigan, sent this in. He's like, I might have too many camera straps. [01:39:49] Speaker B: No, a couple more. [01:39:51] Speaker A: They're all getting nice and worn. Yeah, look at that leather. [01:39:57] Speaker B: That's quite the collection. Would that be one of the biggest collections you've seen? [01:40:02] Speaker A: No, that I've seen a photo. A photo of. Yeah. But there's. There's someone. [01:40:13] Speaker D: There's a few people. [01:40:14] Speaker A: There's a couple of people in the US and, and some people in Australia that are in their orders that are. They would have to have 30 or 40 straps. Yeah. [01:40:25] Speaker D: I don't know if you know, Greg, I've got a bit of a collection just in my house. [01:40:31] Speaker A: Jim's got the biggest collections. [01:40:36] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [01:40:38] Speaker A: I've got the second biggest. [01:40:40] Speaker B: You get a free lucky strap. [01:40:43] Speaker A: Yeah. So anyway, add for lucky straps, use code Justin, Jim or Greg if you would like to have as many. [01:40:52] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:40:52] Speaker A: Actually as Jay, I've got a question. [01:40:54] Speaker D: Justin, did you send out an email with Code Justin on it the other day? [01:40:59] Speaker A: I think so, because a lot of. [01:41:02] Speaker D: People, Justin in the last couple of days and I was like, oh, I wonder if he did something sneaky and put his own name. [01:41:10] Speaker A: Maybe people are finally cottoning onto who their favorite podcast host is. I mean, I don't know. I don't know. Yeah, but yeah, I think there is still a code. [01:41:20] Speaker B: Full time podcast host. Not the part timers. [01:41:25] Speaker D: I think. Yeah, I think Code Grant is still up there. If you want 16 off, please don't. [01:41:33] Speaker A: If you guys would like to use. Use Justin, use Code Justin. Or after that Code Greg. Or after that Code Jim. And then after that Grant. Yeah, they all do the same thing.

[01:42:18] Speaker B: The amount of times that you are mentioned in his new website is. Is sickening. [01:42:22] Speaker A: I love it. [01:42:24] Speaker B: Anyway. [01:42:26] Speaker A: And otherwise. Yeah, exactly. Otherwise. [01:42:30] Speaker D: Yeah, I'll make it a breakup post. [01:42:32] Speaker A: If you shoot Fujifilm.

Robert wants to know people are still getting married. Are they? I don't know. [01:42:56] Speaker A: I don't know. Yeah, Lisa. I don't know why they get different ones. I think they have a lot of cameras. I don't think it's just to match their clothing. I think they have a lot of cameras because yeah, 30 or 40 different camera straps is next level. Grant says. Thanks, team. I enjoy you three in bed with me. We like it too. Rick Nelson says thank you all for the show. Maybe you all could start a monthly photo challenges. Ones we submitted go through on the show and then all those submitted enter the draw at the end of the show. Yeah, I think we could do something. There's a good, there's a way we could structure this. We're getting there. That and the game show and the live. [01:43:32] Speaker D: Probably gonna be less random then. [01:43:34] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:43:34] Speaker D: And more structured. [01:43:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:43:36] Speaker D: Maybe one structure photographer. [01:43:39] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:43:39] Speaker B: Yeah.
