This week on The PetaPixel Podcast, Chris and Jordan share their favorite movies from the last year that they think will have a positive impact on your photography and filmmaking.

Nikon Ambassador and internationally acclaimed photographer and videographer Kristi Odom joined the PetaPixel Podcast this week to discuss underwater photography. Alongside joining us to talk shop, Odom also separately selected and explained her top three images of 2023, one of which is, perhaps not coincidentally, an underwater photo.

With Hasselblad's 100-megapixel upgrade to its classy 907x medium format modular camera being announced, the PetaPixel Podcast team got to thinking about medium format overall and its place in the current photography market.

Last week, Samsung unveiled its new Galaxy S24 Ultra that had some hardware improvements, but leaned much more heavily on software and the addition of AI-powered features. It got us thinking, does a new smartphone need more than just AI to be compelling?

Curious about how Samsung approached the design of its new flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S24 Ultra? The PetaPixel Podcast team sits down with Samsung's Blake Geiser to learn more about what makes this little phone tick.

CineStill, once one of the most popular film brands, is facing widespread backlash for defending its trademarks in a manner that is being described as intimidation and bullying.

It's rare to see Canon and Nikon release lenses at exactly the same time, but it's downright unheard of to see both lenses be one-of-a-kind. That's exactly what happened this week, and the PetaPixel Podcast team shares their thoughts.

Isaac Reynolds has worked at Google since 2014 and is the Group Product Manager for Pixel Camera. Reynolds manages the team that oversees camera design, research, and development.

While every video that Chris and Jordan produce looks like it came together flawlessly, a lot has happened behind the scenes you might not be aware of.

Yesterday, Sony added two more cameras to its line of interchangeable cameras which brought the line to no less than 18 total choices from entry-level through professional. That is just too many.

This week, Chris, Jordan, and Jaron tackle the topic of lens breathing and whether or not it is "blown" out of proportion (pun intended) by YouTubers and lens reviewers.

Whether it be for sentimental reasons, because it's so practical, or because it has become a valuable collector's item, most photographers have at least one piece of gear they'll never get rid of.

Since it began its full scientific operations at the second Lagrange point (L2), about one million miles (1.5 million kilometers) from Earth last year, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has enchanted people around the world. Webb's photos have inspired many people to learn more about space and look at the night sky with unprecedented wonder and curiosity.

This week on The PetaPixel Podcast, Chris, Jordan, and Jaron discuss a Fujifilm X100V that you are even less likely to own than the standard one, a weird Nikon lens that is so rare the seller wants $146,000 for it, changes to the L mount alliance, and a discussion about whether or not you should show your children's faces in photos online.

This week, Chris, Jordan, and Jaron tackle a tough topic: If you love photography and are thinking of making it your job, should you go pro?
