RØDE, the Australian company that has nothing to do with Norway or Denmark, has just announced the successor to its popular Wireless Go microphone, the RØDE Wireless Go II. This new gadget isn’t just a successor to the original, but it expands the Wireless Go family. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Wireless Go continued being sold next to the Wireless Go II, as a cheaper option. But is it worth paying an extra $100 for the latest and greatest?...

At some point in the past couple of weeks, you might have read that Xiaomi’s MI MIX Fold, which belongs to a line of phones you might have never seen in the wild or even heard off, will use the world’s first liquid lens in a smartphone. Or perhaps you have seen a leaked video or watched the keynote in which it was announced.

In this review, I will be taking a look at the Godox LEDP260C, possibly the cheapest decent (on paper) LED panel you can purchase at this moment. While I’m at it, I will tell you what I like and dislike about this cheap video light. The Godox LEDP260C has a total of 128 3300K LEDs and 128 5600K LEDs and reaches 2200 LUX when set to daylight. <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> </div></figure> </div> </div> </div> <div class="gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-d0ffa115"> <a class="gb-button gb-button-32720c84" href="https://www....

You might have noticed that it wasn’t just Apple who launched brand new and potentially revolutionary hardware during the last week. AMD Radeon launched the RX 6800 XT and RX 6800, which are for the first time in many years, comparable to what NVIDIA is offering at the higher end in terms of performance and pricing. At least, when it comes to gaming. As NVIDIA GeForce cards are meant for gaming too but perform brilliantly in creative applications, does that mean that creatives can finally pick up a card from someone other than NVIDIA?...

Apple has just announced its first three devices running on Apple Silicon. The numbers they are touting sound pretty amazing. So, should you, someone who uses creative applications for video and photo editing, go out and buy a new MacBook Air/Pro or Mac mini as soon as they launch? Let’s have a frank discussion about the Apple M1. The short answer to the opening question is a definite no. The long answer also boils down to what is a solid no with a few very rare exceptions....

If you know me you should know that I like talking about cameras. More often than not you’ll find me complaining about things I don’t like but today, for a change, I’ll be taking a look at a camera that actually intrigues me. I don’t actually own it and I’m not passing this off as a review but I’m still entitled to my own opinion. Everything I know about this camera is based on what the manufacturer has released and reviews I’ve watched and read....

The Zeiss ZX1 is finally up for pre-order. Yes, you read that right, the Zeiss ZX1, which was announced two years ago and subsequently all but forgotten about, will apparently ship sometime in the foreseeable future. Let me tell you why I think the Android-powered Zeiss ZX1 is a terrible idea. <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> </div></figure> <div class="gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-bdc7af72"> <a class="gb-button gb-button-34a64be4" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsI0-Q8XvCuGPw1RPtH8nbA?sub_confirmation=1"><span class="gb-icon"><svg xmlns="https://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 576 512" width="1em" height="1em" aria-hidden="true"><path d="M549....

About a month ago I released a video in which I discussed whether us creatives should be considering the new RTX 3080 or even the absolutely insane GPU that is the RTX 3090 for our creative applications. And I came to the conclusion that we almost certainly won’t need one unless our hardware is seriously outdated. Well, we now have a definite answer as to whether we should upgrade or not....

My most recent YouTube videos have all been shot on my brand new camera: The Fujifilm X-T4. And whilst I may have recorded a few videos using it, I’m still very much getting to grips with my new system. Despite that, I want to explain why I went with the Fuji and what my first impressions of this camera are. <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> </div></figure> <div class="gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-201c3e27"> <a class="gb-button gb-button-bdfa1e9f" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsI0-Q8XvCuGPw1RPtH8nbA?sub_confirmation=1"><span class="gb-icon"><svg aria-hidden="true" height="1em" width="1em" viewBox="0 0 576 512" xmlns="https://www....

A while ago, I made a video on Sony’s attempt at making a camera aimed solely at vloggers. And in that video, I didn’t have much praise for the Sony Z-V1. And yet, the Z-V1 is still a one of a kind. It’s got a large-ish sensor but a tiny body, it has a decent lens and fantastic autofocus, the built-in microphone is actually usable, it has a flippy screen, and Sony’s improvements to the skin tones were very welcome....
