  1. 3:18 and the photos are still shittier than a 10 year old APS-C. God, I'm tired of the focus on cameras when these are literal pocket *computers*. Features like Samsung DeX (Apple could have included Stage Manager), inclusion of Thunderbolt 4 or 5, and a secondary USB-C port instead of a camera button all would have pushed things further than a superfluous button and a set of horribly awkward (and redundant) gestures. If the camera must be the focus, how about an integrated ND filter or variable aperture? Come on.

  2. Show me another photography show which begins with an admission of a previous lifestyle of unprotected sex. I'll wait.
    Actually, don't… I don't need anyone uncovering a lost podcast where Ted Forbes goes into detail about his previous life as a swinger, living free and loose. Who am I kidding… Of course I do. More than anything.

    What are we meant to be talking about? Oh iPhone, new button or something. Just keep my 14 Pro Max. Got it. Excellent show, fellas!

  3. That was great! A Nikon Japan Podcast would be awesome. It would be a wonderful adventure to see the headquarters. Being a Nikon user for ten years I would be very interested. I started with a Nikon D5500 then a Nikon D850 and now a Nikon Z9.

  4. Guys – the lenses are NOT "telephoto zoom." You camera guys should know better! They are FIXED FOCAL LENGTH lenses, and NOTHING IS ZOOMING. You guys certainly know the difference between actual optical zoom and digital cropping. Sheesh!

  5. As a Nikon shooter, I would totally watch the Nikon Japan episode- seeing the museum would be super cool, and I'm sure it would be fun to watch you all try to get the Nikon miniatures and sampling the local delicacies lol.
