After 79 episodes, we finally found the time to give our weekly studio setup a refresh!
We’ve upgraded to a brand-new look featuring a multi-camera anamorphic setup — and as far as we know, it’s the first anamorphic video podcast setup out there. (Thank you, NANLITE, for supplying us with PavoTube II 6XR and PavoTube II 30C kits for decorating our setup!).

But that’s not all! With IBC just around the corner, we’re diving into some exciting new gear announcements — from compact action cams to new drones and more.

So hit that play button and join us for a fresh episode full of updates, gear talk, and a brand-new look!
