Description
Marco has invited back his friend, journalist, and reviewer of cameras and photographic equipment Angela Nicholson to talk about the latest news from the world of mirrorless cameras.   This show is sponsored by:   Skylum Luminar - The cutting edge photo editor http://bit.ly/PPN-Luminar3  and COSYSPEED - The fastest camera bags in the world. http://bit.ly/STREETOMATIC  Canon has released the EOS M200. The new M200 replaced the M100 entry-level APS-C camera. It still has a 24MP APS-C sensor and a 180° touch LCD. But the new Digic 8 processor is supposed to improve the AF with Dual Pixel AF and eye detection. Canon EOS M200 B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IWGxxG  Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2BmvCc8    Canon PowerShot G5X MK II The G5 X MK II is a high-end compact camera with a 20MP 1” sensor. It has a fixed 24-120mm f1.8-2.8 zoom lens. But one of its special features is a pop-up EVF and flash. The touch-LCD tilts up 180° and 90° down and on the video side, the camera shoots 4K/30p and up to 120p in full HD video. Canon PowerShot G5X MK II B&H: https://bhpho.to/33Dx6ek   Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2MmgfH2    Fuji announced the development of the X-Pro 3. This new iteration of the X-Pro line from Fuji will have a better Hybrid Electronic- and optical viewfinder and it finally gets a tilt-LCD. But as much as Marco has been wanting this feature on the X-Pro line, he has quite some concerns if the way that Fuji implemented it will be very convenient in real-life situations.   Fuji also announced the development of an XF 50mm f1.0 lens. But this lens will come instead of the long-time announced XF 33mm f1.0 lens. Why did they change their mind and was this a good decision?   Marco’s Fuji X-T2 has issues with the weather sealing and the Fuji Cam Remote app continues to have serious issues.   Fuji has also announced an update to the entry-level X-A5 that is now called X-A7. The camera has a new 24MP APS-C bayer pattern sensor with 8.5 times more phase-detection AF-Pixel than the previous X-A5. The camera has only 4 buttons: A shared drive/trash bin, a replay, a shared Menu/OK, and a display button. Plus an AF-Joystick that helps to operate the camera next to the 3.5” touch LCD. The camera will be available in 4 colors and will hit the stores on October 24th. Fuji X-A7 B&H: https://bhpho.to/2nYdB0U    Sony introduced the a7R IV. This is a 61MP full-frame camera that also offers a high-res mode with 240MP. The OLED EVF as 5.7 Mio. dot and the 4K video mode does not add a crop to the width of the sensor. Sony a7R IV B&H: https://bhpho.to/2BqoYS9    Sony also added the new entry-level a6100 and the flagship a6600 to their APS-C lineup. The a6100 is a stripped-down a6400 with a lower resolution EVF. The new a6600 has IBIS, faster tracking AF and uses bigger Z-type batteries that hold about twice the capacity compared to the smaller W-series that the other a6000 cameras are using.   Sony a6100 B&H: https://bhpho.to/31pU9rm  Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/35IAFlj    Sony a6600 B&H: https://bhpho.to/35E6onz  Amazon Germany: https://amzn.to/2OVAb5q  Panasonic has released the Lumix S1H camera. This is the video-centric version for the S1 lineup. The full-frame camera has a dual native ISO sensor with 24MP that allows fro 4:2:2 10-bit internal recording at 4K/60P. Compared to the S1 siblings with one SD and one XQD memory slot, this camera has 2 SD card slots.   Panasonic Lumix S1H B&H: https://bhpho.to/2qkXbjT  Panasonic Lumix S1 B&H: https://bhpho.to/2Ip0pLK    Panasonic Lumix S1R B&H: https://bhpho.to/2IoT9zJ  Panasonic also added the Lumix S PRO 24-70mm f2.8 lens to the lineup.
