Kev has lost a family heirloom, but fortunately, Neale finds the X100V he left on a car roof in Chelsea. Also today, Kev's looking to expand his photographic library, just don't tell Gemma, what makes a good photographic retreat, Kev's studio lighting workflow for portrait work, when to use Auto ISO, shutter speed choice, do you have a Gary in your life, plus correct preset and profile workflow in Lightroom.

Kev returns from a week away looking at the world through the bottom of a pint glass, but all is well, and we're ready for the final push through to the time of year it's too early to mention yet! Your questions and emails into the show answered.

Today, should you recycle your memory cards more often to be absolutely safe they won't corrupt? Do we have a strategy for our exits from shooting weddings or even being photographers? Is the wedding industry for photographers at any rate, the slowest it has been since the pandemic took it away for a while? Do you calibrate your monitor? And the big elephant in Kev's duck stream (listen the show that will makes sense), what will the new X-Pro line camera look like?

Kev shares his memories (those he can still recall through cocktail-infused eyes) of the Judo boys-on-tour trip to Gibraltar, and Neale is wrestling with a washing machine that's doing its best to flood the house.

Questions for the show include decisions on why to shoot wide open, whether a GFX will cause editing problems on an older iMac, if a GFX can be a decent travel companion, and electronic zoom or zooming in Lightroom - what's less destructive? We're still noodling over AI, we talk about Google Maps, cameras with patina, what art forms inspire your photography and why your pictures may be muddy in post-production.

Neale and Kev return from Fujikina having run workshops and spoken on panels, and are full of the joys of spring for the next! Hint hint. But there's a problem, we're running dry of questions, is this the end? Another hint hint.

Questions and thoughts about what Fujifilm kit to take on an astro photography trip, a lifetime trip to Japan, do the boys prefer prime or zooms, some thoughts about Sigma lenses and different focal lengths for your X100 camera! And the big one; our thoughts about ChatGPT, whether you're using it for writing, life-planning, editing, or even writing code for your website. Oh, and the boys are thinking about moving to a small idyllic island in the South Pacific!

Watch out watch out, there's a Haggis about, and it's playing central defence for the Vatican City's football team! All will be revealed. The boys are looking ahead to their appearances at Fujikina this coming weekend and there are questions into the show about character and vintage lenses for travel cameras, and we ask whether Instagram should be looking over its shoulders at Flickr which is making a resurgence.

Will Kev consider selling his camera bag dividers, why is my camera resetting, any tips on using the Fujifilm app, what are the most important books the boys have in their collections, is there any love for square format pictures, and what does Kev think of the 500mm beast lens?

Kev's returned from Spain, and he's possibly brought a suitcase full of scorpions home, so we've sent him to check! We say goodbye today to Pictime, our sponsor for the last few years, waving them off, but still loving their product.

Questions in to the show include whether the GFX is right for wedding work, or is it an incy bit slow, what's the best social platform to concentrate on if you're social shy or social fatigued, street projects to whet the creative appetite, and how to sort your images after a long day's shooting. We also, have a book of the week by James and Karla Murray called Vinyl NYC, celebrating record shops of that great city.

Shhhh, don't tell Gemma, but Kev's got GAS and he's starting a cider business! That surely won't help! This time it's a telescope, and we reckon at FujiCast HQ he's hidden it in one of those shopping bags he keeps to sneak new gear into the house. On the show today, a little more on connecting cameras to telescopes, standing desks for your health, should I change my primes for one single zoom to go one body one lens, video tips including grading and sound. What non-Fujifilm gear would the boys entertain in their kit bags, stuff they might go back to or buy brand new? Turns out Kev may take a dalliance with a red dotted camera from that question.

In the midst of Summer with Kev sunning himself by a Spanish pool until 2027 the boys answer your questions about everything Fujifilm and beyond. This week, what are Kev and Neale planning to photograph in their retirement?! What is this R word? Do creatives ever truly retire? Also, being a creature of habit with the scenes you know, to travelling abroad with your lens - with a greater sense of adventure. We talk about travel photography, how to work with IBIS, problems with command dials, the upcoming Fujikina Photo Festival event in London, making cider, and what advantages do I really get by upgrading an older X-Pro system?
