It's in the air... Just as I was re-discovering my old Samsung NX1, Tographer features the camera in today's episode 😎 www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-i4...

Where previous generations of the R6 felt like a stripped-down R5, the R6 Mark III takes its inspiration from the C50, and it shows! It features 7K 60P RAW, 4K/120 and even open gate recording! It also comes with C-log 3 AND C-log 2. And yes, it has FULL SIZE HDMI 😎 www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvN6...

Another argument for getting EF-lenses instead of RF, is that you can adapt them to any other system: mirrorless, DSLR or cinema camera. Like here: the Canon EF 135mm f/2 on my trusty Samsung NX1 😍

Naik Media bought FOUR EF L-lenses for the price of the RF 85mm f/1.2 L 😵 Lots of interesting points on why you might choose older glass over the latest and greatest: www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4Bi...

Canon just released the C50: a 7K full frame, video-first hybrid camera with optional XLR handle. It can do open gate 7K up to 30p and 7K 16:9 up to 60 fps. It supports C-log 2 and C-log 3 and has the same dual photo/video UI as the R5 C. No EVF and no internal ND. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqNJ...

DJI just released the Mic 3, which features an ultra-compact design, can work with up to 4 transmitters and 8 receivers and features 32GB built-in storage. Pricing: starting at $99. But how does it compare to the Røde Wireless Pro? Check out this review: www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9NG...

Hm, the new Skyrover X1 looks eerily similar to the DJI Mini 4 Pro... 🫣 www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYsk...

Canon just announced a major firmware update across the EOS R range (R1, R3, R5, R5 Mark II, R6 Mark II, R7, R8, R10, R50, R50 V, and PowerShot V1 and V10), but more importantly: Rudy Winston is back to present it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=blhK...

Today I encountered the infamous 'swollen GoPro battery' issue. After swelling, the battery got stuck in the GoPro, and the top came off when trying to get it out... 😬 GoPro should really include a separate charger with overcharge protection, because I'm far from the only one running into this issue

Despite having built-in fans, many users are reporting overheating issues on the LUMIX S1 II and S1R II when using CfExpress cards: www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9Xq... 🔥

❌ Currently DJI drones are not available for sale in the US. This does not seem due to the proposed ban, but drones are being held at customs. This has forced DJI to stop selling drones in the US, for now. DJI drones are still available in other countries. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkHr...

You can now shoot actual ARRI Log-C3 on the Panasonic Lumix S1 II, S1 IIE and S1 RII 😃 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dqr3...

Wow, the Canon V1 is shaping up to be a really impressive little camera: oversampled 4K from 5.7K, C-log3, dynamic range on par with the R8, built-in NDs, good optical stabilization, long record times without overheating... 😃 www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5g3...

Blackmagic just announced the PYXIS 12K: full frame, 12K/60, 8K/112. Price: $4995, shipping in July. Blackmagic also announced a sidebar handle with zoom rocker as well as a top-handle with built-in mic, record button and EVF!

Blackmagic just added CONTINUOUS AUTOFOCUS with object tracking and face recognition as a firmware update!!!! 🔥🔥🔥 Currently only available for the Blackmagic Cinema Camera 6K, but will roll out to other models later.

Canon made sure the R50 V will never be mistaken for a photo-camera: the mode dial only contains a single photo-mode, the rest are video options 😄 www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEPi...
