Welcome to the latest episode of Bokeh Face: The Digital Camera World Podcast!
This week we're taking an In Focus look at flash (02:26). Is the pop-up flash dead? Here's how it happened, why it happened, when the on-camera flash aesthetic came back and what companies like Godox and Viltrox are doing about it with pocket-sized hotshoe flashguns.
Then we Gear Up with the latest generation of drones that feature 360 cameras – the DJI Avata 360 and Antigravity A1 (14:48). Does this really change the game for imaging, or does it only change it for existing drone shooters?
Finally, in Trouble Shooting we look at how to buy a macro lens (27:45). What do you need to be aware of, what options are available, should you buy second-hand… and could you even get away with a broken lens?
