The Camera Gear Podcast

Nikon’s new Z5IIC is their newest compact and low-cost full-frame camera, but does it stand out against its competition? We take a close look at the details and try to decide. Also, Insta360’s new Luna Ultra “Stage Mode” firmware and telephoto lens seem to set it up for success for filming concerts and live events, so we put it to the test to find out if the new add-on lens is worth it.

We dig through our inbox and cover some listener mail from recent episodes. Also, Fuji came out with a 400mm telephoto that sits oddly close to some of the other lenses in their lineup, and OM System has (finally?) come out with a new PEN camera that has our interest.

We cover cameras old and new in this Episode 200 extravaganza, starting with a look at Daniel’s various travel cameras and debating whether he needs another action camera to add to the mix. Then, we do a deep dive into several old film and digital cameras we came across recently–including a few legendary lenses.
