Davinci Resolve 20 is here (at least, in beta) and it has several features we’re really excited to use. Also, there are a surprising number of new camera announcements this month, and TTArtisan released a lens with an interesting selectable bokeh feature. Finally, we end up with a topic that’s right up the alley of the Camera Gear Podcast–a debate about sensor bit depth as it relates to photos.

Freshly back from overseas, we talk about our experiences with camera stores in Japan and retrospect on how our travel photography setups worked out. Also, we take a look at Sony’s new 50-150mm f/2 lens, and whether it’s compelling at its rather-high price.

We look at the new Nikon Z5 II and compare it to its competition. Did Nikon break this part of the market wide open, or is one of the other cameras still a better choice? Also, Canon is finally starting to fill out their lineup of reasonably-priced full-frame RF lenses.

Blackmagic didn’t disappoint at NAB this year, and we’re pretty excited about the new Pyxis 12K. As usual for this podcast, we go deep into the technical capabilities of this new camera, especially with regards to the 12K sensor. Also, OM System is getting into the culinary business?

The Fuji X Summit delivered on expectations and brought us Fuji’s latest camera, the GFX100RF. As you might expect from this podcast, we have a lot of thoughts. Also, Zoom released a new 32-bit float field recorder that looks like it checks all the boxes.

Lucas finally got into the V-mount battery world, so we take the opportunity to talk about our experiences with V-mount and how we’re using (and plan to use) these batteries in our camera rigs and on set. Also, Canon released a new point and shoot camera with a rather surprising set of video features.

Ever bought some camera gear and realized later that you made a mistake? We sure have. We cover some of our gear regrets in this episode and try to retrospect on how we could have avoided making bad buying decisions. Also, Lucas finally developed the photos from his first Pentax 17 film rolls, and Daniel spent way too much money on a new tripod.

We explore ideas for editing client photos in Lightroom without combining those photos into our personal photo libraries. And to make things more challenging, Lucas wants to use his iPad (of course). Also, a recent event shoot gave us a chance to try out some new filming setups, including the Lumix S9 as a gimbal camera.

After an unexpectedly successful trip to the camera store, we’ve both got some new gear to talk about. Daniel ended up far deeper into L Mount than he ever imagined possible, and Lucas finally upgraded his standard zoom to the new Fuji 16-55 II. In this episode, we talk about the story of how this came about, and discuss our hands-on experiences with the new gear.
