Spoiler alert: it involves Fuji film simulations and way too much discussion about buttons. Also, PolarPro released a bespoke container for holding film? It’s like they listen to this podcast.

August 20, 202497: NikonCast: Z6III Caveats, and is the D850 Still Good?
The Nikon Z6III has an issue with exposure in shadows while shooting in log, so we dig into it to try to understand what’s going on. Then, Lucas compares the D850 to modern mirrorless cameras and yearns for the days of the DSLR. Also, should we 3D print a medium-format film camera, and what’s with the vest that every Olympics photographer wears?
