Photokina Part 3: Fujifilm "Super Full Frame" / Sensor on-chip ND / Announcing EOSHD TV, and The EOSHD Podcast

[Andrew Reid]

On day 3 and 4 of Photokina, I collaborated with Dave Altizer of Kinotika to record the first episode of EOSHD TV and an EOSHD Podcast.

We discuss insider topics such as a rumoured on-chip ND filter by Panasonic, Fuji's "super full frame" medium format strategy and round up some of the highlights of Photokina (including the Panasonic S1R).

It was an interesting listen. Make more of them

[zerocool22]

Were you able to visit Samyang and ask them about the anamorphic lenses?

[Andrew Reid]

Yes I did actually haha! They didn't have any at the show. I don't think they are ready yet and might even just be for one customer - the South Korean film industry. I could be wrong on that. I hope they end up for sale and at decent prices.

[Dave Maze]

Thank you so much Andrew for having me on the show! It was such a blast hanging out and chatting about gear. The four hour beer and dinner bickering between you and Dan Chung was the highlight of my week! 

[Aussie Ash]

Who is the guy on the left wearing the "Death" shirt ???

[mkabi]

Anything on the Hasselblad X2D???

Can't believe you didn't give a mention to my Improvised Lens Device as one of the show highlights

Incidentally, it did get pulled by airport security on the way out of Berlin yesterday !

[Andrew Reid]

Certain a show highlight. There will be a whole article coming with that in. Berlin airport security - "What is this hand-made device with wires?" You... "It's a wireless trigger!"

*Airport security stares even more suspiciously*

Completely OT but I was travelling through the US with a couple of friends in wheelchairs and when they got whisked off to a separate line for TSA I got accidentally left with their carry on bag which contained the disconnected hand controller for the electric wheelchair that they checked. Not only did it raise some eyebrows going through the scanner, but the all-metal clip in tray table also in the bag wouldn't have helped either.

"Sir, is this your bag?"

<choose words carefully >

"Err, that one is with me...."

Cheers man. It was great fun! I'll be in touch about more stuff and ideas.

I wonder if Dan will sell me his anamorphic. Surely he needs to get rid of some of those 300 lenses of his?

what a motley crew of the mirrorless counterculture ... okay, I'm in ...  yet that highlight/glare on your forehead ... geez! Come on, man! Got your hands full anyway! Good luck on the podcast: it's certainly needed and overdue. Congratulations 

[OliKMIA]

Congratulation guys. Just a personal remark, I will never have time to listen a 50 min podcast. If possible, try to break it down in several episode or at least, post some sort of "Table of contents" (11:32 Fuji, 24:04 Canon R, etc.) below the podcast and/or video so people can go where they want and skip the subject they don't care about.

PS: the Shigetaka Komori book is very good

[Inazuma]

That was great. You guys have surprisingly good chemistry. But where is the video version?

Thanks man! I will be posting a video version later this week from another different conversation 

[Andrew Reid]

Send me that video file Dave!

By the way, apparently (don't know if this is true) the next Photokina is in May 2019 already. They are holding them every year from now on.

[Roman Koenigshofer]

Any chance we get that podcast on itunes?

[Andrew Reid]

Yes sure. I'll work on it.

Yea, that is true, they announced that some time back that it'll be a yearly show in May.

Congrats on the new content. Looks like you had a good time.
