We dream about what Fuji might do in their next generation of flagship cameras such as the X-T6 and X-H3S, and take a look at the Camp Snap Pro, a slightly upscale version of Camp Snap’s first digital disposable-like camera.

Notes:

We look at the cute little Kodak Charmera keychain camera, and reflect on some cameras that have recently been replaced with newer models: the Canon R6 II, Sony A7 IV, Nikon Z6 II, and Panasonic S1.

Notes:

The Leica M EV1 has us a little surprised at Leica’s willingness to deviate from the analog nature of their M series of cameras, and we debate whether it’s the camera Leica fans have been waiting for. But before that, Lucas continues his internal struggle of how to manage and edit his photos. Also, we look at an interesting set of Lightroom presets a listener pointed us to that seem to match other brands’ cameras to Fuji film simulations.

Notes:

Hot on the heels of the Canon R6 Mark III, Sony announced the long-awaited A7 V. With the previous A7 IV having come out all the way back in 2021, does the new A7 V catch Sony up to the competition or leapfrog them ahead?

Notes:

We dig deep into the new Canon R6 Mark III. Has Canon managed to come out on top in the crowded midrange full-frame mirrorless camera segment?

Notes:

Lucas is considering some changes to his photo backup workflow, which is an undertaking of epic proportions. Also, Canon’s new 45mm f/1.2 STM lens has us wondering if RF mount has finally reached its full potential.
