Mirrorless news that is covered on this show:
Leica announced an update to the full frame fixed lens mirrorless Q camera. Marco shares what improvements he would like to see in an upgraded Q and compares it to what was actually improved in the new Q-P that retails for $5000 and is $750 more expensive than the regular Q.

Nikon is shipping a telescope camera, well - almost a telescope-camera. The 16MP 1 / 2.3” sensor Nikon Coolpix P1000 offers an optical zoom lens with an equivalent field of view of 24-3000mm. Yes, that is 3000 with three zeros! The lens has a starting aperture of f2.8 on the wide side and f8 on the tele-end. The included “bird” and “mood” mode gives you a pretty good idea, for what kind of photographers this camera is made for.

GoPro is shipping the new HERO7 in a Black, Silver, and White feature version. The “Black” top model has improved IQ and new Hypersmooth image stabilization. It can shoot at 4k 60fps, has internal WiFi and GPS and some cool features like a TimeWarp that’s a great looking Hyperlapse mode. It should allow you to get great video results even if you don’t have an expensive gimbal to smooth out movement.

The popular, pretty compact and foldable Mavic drone from DJI has just received an upgrade - well actually two upgrades. Now there is a Mavic 2 Pro and a Mavic 2 Zoom. The pro version features a small Hasselblad camera with a 1” sensor and the Zoom has a 2x optical zoom lens plus a 4x digital zoom. Except for the cameras, the two drones are identical with added sensors for all directions collision avoidance and a 3-axis gimbal. The Mavic 2 Zoom offers new features like a dolly zoom and super-resolution mode that expand the possibilities of capturing amazing images with that drone.

Mirrorless question of the month:
Hi Marco, I have been using the Fuji X-T2 for two years now and I am thinking about upgrading to the X-T3 now that it is shipping. I’m mainly a landscape, portrait, and travel photographer and have the XF 14mm, XF 16-55mm, XF 56mm, and XF 55-200mm lenses. Do you think it makes sense for me to upgrade?
