Kev is becoming a lean, mean loving machine! Never mind giving camera advice; we're thinking of launching a new weight-loss cast! You'll understand why when you hear the start of the show. On the show, for the love of megapixels, when is the X-Pro4 going to become a thing?

We wonder about other roadmap arrivals and talk about research and development, plus inspiration and age verification. We discuss how that will work and the social media channels where verification could have made the platforms far more child-friendly, pivoting into a new genre with excellent advice for tickling the search engines, and the best lens to take on a wonderful hike across New Zealand.

Neale and Kev reminisce about driving tests; turns out Kev failed his a gazillion times! Also, firmware updates, what would the boys like to see improved in the near future on Fujifilm cameras, Kev sorts Neale's focus failures on the X100V, loaning out your cameras to family, and we ask whether the great Fujifilm zoom lenses can stand up to the quality offered by primes?

We choose between particular cameras in the range, and we return to an ole' chestnut conversation; what NOT to do on Instagram, so a slight twist on the theme.

Neale and Kev consider naturist wedding photography in their ageing rock'n'roll years. Unofficially, this becomes a new year's 'spring clean' week for those wishing to drive business through websites and social media, driven by Alex Mealin, who is relaunching his photography business after a six-year hiatus.

Talking of new, Neale launches a new podcast in 2026 called Reflections, which is about this creative life we lead. At the end of today's show, he gives you a preview featuring thoughts on our social media guru, KEV!

Also today, Kev's new business plans for the year, why you need to stop playing the algorithm, the advantage of posting carousels, worrying about likes and follow numbers, trust and authority in your online presence and the super-importance of blogging and fresh content. Is shooting in a genre scattergun fashion focused enough and why do we run twilight events at a time of year when it's just plain dark!?!
