Is There Any Real Benefit to Retro Camera Design?

This week Nikon launched the Zf, a full-frame retro-inspired camera that packs some serious technology and gives us a glimpse into the company's future. But we have some questions about retro design: is it all nostalgia or is there more to it? This week's episode is brought to you by OM SYSTEM! Get ready to take your photography to the extreme. This morning, OM SYSTEM announced the Tough TG-7, a dustproof, shockproof, freezeproof and crushproof camera featuring an f/2.0 high-speed zoom lens, RAW recording, and a 4x optical zoom lens to ensure you capture perfection with fast shutter speeds and minimal blur. The OM SYSTEM Tough TG-7 is your key to capturing extraordinary images, whether you're diving underwater, braving freezing temperatures, or exploring rugged terrains. To learn more about the TG-7, visit explore.omsystem.com/petapixel. The TG-7 will be available on the OM SYSTEM website as well as authorized OM SYSTEM retailers by the end of the month for $549.99. Visit explore.omsystem.com/petapixel to learn more. In addition to talking about retro design and digging deeper into their thoughts on the Zf, the trio also chats about the gorgeous ProRes Log profile that is now available on the new iPhone 15 Pro and Pro Max as well as hits a few of the week's top news stories. Plus, as always, they answer your tech questions and comments. We use Riverside to record The PetaPixel Podcast in our online recording studio. In This Episode We hope you enjoy the podcast and we look forward to hearing what you think. If you like what you hear, please support us by subscribing, liking, commenting, and reviewing! Every week, the trio go over comments on YouTube and here on PetaPixel, but if you’d like to send a message for them to hear, you can do so through SpeakPipe.
