    HELP! Fujifilm flippy screens are driving me mad!

    HELP! Fujifilm flippy screens are driving me mad!

    Kev’s got extreme hay fever, which serves him right for cutting crop circles, and he’s considering his next photographic genre, which may just bring his love of martial arts and photography together. Today on the show, how powerful does your laptop have to be to handle GFX files? We have a strong case of flippy or tilty screen-gate, where one of our listeners has even been considering moving to Nikon to solve the problem, how to repair sticky buttons, is it worth sharing shooting data if you don’t have the context of the ambient lighting, and we have a book of the week from Gonzalo Mullen which highlights his photographic life between 2021 and 2023.

    Do I really need the VI, or will the X100V do?

    Neale is celebrating 20 years of shooting weddings and planning for the next 20, whilst Kev counts down his final three! Or are they? However, he reveals some big judo plans! Questions and mails today on how to choose Fujifilm simulations when editing in Lightroom or X Raw Studio, whether it’s time to upgrade from the V to the VI in X00-land, a perfect lineup of lenses to cover all bases, thoughts about Nikon’s vintage flavoured Zf and content authenticity in this age of ai. There’s also some hot off-the-press Pic-time news.

    More chatter about the X-Pro4 and photographing from space

    Kev tries his hand at horse photography at one of high society's biggest events, and Neale signs the boys up to set sail on a pirate radio ship. This week, the big Netflix shows currently being watched in the James and Mullins households, looking for a new professional photography career, do lenses need to be perfect or are some of the classics of the Fuji roadmap still a great investment, what’s the wait for a new X-Pro body all about, releasing a book of boudoir, a whisper of focusing issues after a latest X-series firmware update and dream photographic jobs.

    No more meetings, I’m becoming a photographer!

    Kev’s been wrecking vans but all for a good cause, meanwhile Neale has announced(ish) his latest idea in a long line of ideas from the ideas factory. Today we talk about a Viltrox lens so impressive, it also doubles as a speed-radar(!), swapping back to Adobe products after a time away and why we prefer the tech ecosystem, keeping up with the latest software to edit X100VI files, seeing in black and white, to spot or to evaluate as Shakespeare didn’t actually say, turning pro, in-camera recipes for looks, X RAW Studio, brands logos and fonts and the twenty-two immutable laws of marketing, plus MORE long focal length primes please.

    Upgrading your camera: Why? And back to the darkroom

    Kev wonders whether his new X-Pro dreams have filtered through to the ‘We shall consider’ file. Meanwhile, switch on your ai face recognition, it has arrived on Pic-Time’s platform, our sponsors and the finest online gallery space. Also today on the show, upgrades, do you need to upgrade from the X-T4 to the X-T5? We also talk about film photography and darkroom printing, having a style about your Instagram grid that is brand recognisable, uploading images to websites and sRGB versus AdobeRGB. Plus it turns out that the boys have alternative skills should they ever need to call upon them; Kev was a Welsh milk boy, and Neale was one of the last petrol pump attendants in Hertfordshire!
