The Lens-Sensor Recipes Podcast

SilverLight Photo Co.

For years, I had searched for the perfect lens-sensor combination; a lens and camera duo that would produce a beautiful image with few adjustments and little post-processing. It would look REAL straight out of camera (SOOC) and be everything I needed and wanted in a camera system. However, as I tested each pair, they all told a different story, and would deliver light to the sensor differently. So, I began tweaking settings, jotting down notes (on index cards) for each lens-sensor combination I

The Nikon Z5 v1 is Not Good for Video

The Lens-Sensor Recipes Podcast ·

2026/03/16

After testing, I definitely can say the Nikon Z5 (v1) isn't good for video. I really wanted this to work because it is one of the few full-frame cameras, with IBIS, that were under $600...but even after adding custom, Nikon Picture Control files, this camera is horrible for video recording purposes. I was going to just keep it for doing stills only, but I really do need a hybrid photo & video camera if I'm going to spend this money.

More Dynamic Range (How Can You Control It?)

The Lens-Sensor Recipes Podcast ·

2026/03/05

Everyone wants more "dynamic range" but the REAL problem is not living within the dynamic range of our camera's sensor...but, how does one do that? The answer might be controlling the light that passes through the lens (sometimes this can even mean using filters).MORE INFO AT:https://www.silverlightphotoco.com/camerashttps://www.silverlightphotoco.com/luts

Is the Nikon Z5 v1 Good for Video?

The Lens-Sensor Recipes Podcast ·

2026/02/18

We know Nikon cameras are going to get better for video purposes, because they bought RED (the Nikon ZR already looks really good) but are any of their older and more budget-friendly cameras (the Z5 v1) that can create professional-looking video?

PART 2: Are Lens Filters Good?

The Lens-Sensor Recipes Podcast ·

2026/02/13

So, I do agree that filters affect the image, but what if I told you there are times when using filters can sort of improve the dynamic range? So, before anybody gets too upset, let me emphasize that I think it works well with SOME lenses, but not with others.

PART 1: Are Lens Filters Good?

The Lens-Sensor Recipes Podcast ·

2026/02/13

Okay, let's agree first that using a filter doesn't actually change the dynamic range specifications of your camera's sensor. It is however, an optic that will affect the way light will hit the sensor, and THIS is what can change what I'll call the "perceptive dynamic range".

Is My Business Idea Good (and How Do You Know)?

If you've ever thought of starting your own business, you've probably wondered if your idea is any good. Some people say you need to make sure your business is solving a problem and then you know there is demand (for what you're doing) but what if people don't know a problem exists?

Budget Full-Frame Cameras?

SUMMARY:We ask the question "Is there any such thing as an affordable full-frame camera (currently)?" and if it seems like there is no conclusion that's because I haven't reached one, but you can use these raw facts to come up with one.BLOG POST:https://www.silverlightphotoco.com/post/does-sensor-size-matterSPECIAL THANKS:UsedPhotoPro.com (Use below link to get free shipping): https://www.jdoqocy.com/click-100161146-13597005http://www.GafferPower.com#microfourthirds #fullframecamera

Are Viltrox Speedboosters Any Good? (Dangerous With...

The Lens-Sensor Recipes Podcast ·

2023/06/17

A Viltrox Speedbooster killed another one of my cameras (a Panasonic G85). You may have heard of how a different (Canon-mount EF-M2ii) Viltrox Speedbooster "killed" my Panasonic GX85, but now we’re talking about the all-manual, Nikon-mount version. The Nikon version has killed my G85 (scratched the sensor) my last “REAL” working camera. All I have left is a Panasonic FZ1000 bridge camera, and no more money at that.

Why My LUTs Don’t Do Much (but My CUSTOM SETTINGS Do)

My CUSTOM SETTINGS are way more important than my LUTs, but would you use my LUTs at all if they aren’t that important? Well, the reason is I’m focused on perfecting my custom, in-camera (SOOC) settings so you don’t need a LUT!

Both Full Frame AND Micro Four Thirds?

2023/06/03

If full frame camera prices come down (to an "affordable" level) you might ask "Do we even NEED Micro Four Thirds any more?" In this episode I'll cover the reasons I think it's good to keep BOTH systems (if you have full frame already, the cost of adding Micro Four Thirds isn't a barrier, and if you have Micro Four Thirds, full frame is getting close!) P.S. I mentioned current pricing of the Sony A7rii, but said A7ii…but I DO NOT RECOMMEND the A7ii for video purposes (but the A7rii might be a

AI for AUDIO is here, and so far I don't like it. If you've ever taken pictures with a "smart" phone that uses AI to (automatically) processes the image, and you don't have any control over how much SHARPNESS, CONTRAST, COLOR it adds, then you can start to imagine how bad AI for AUDIO can be.SETTINGS: This podcast was recorded using a Rode VideoMicro + Comica Dual Lav going into a Zoom F2-BT, at the "CLOSE" proximity.

Rode VideoMicro & Zoom F2 “CLOSE” (with Comica Dual Lav)

The Lens-Sensor Recipes Podcast ·

2023/02/07

The way I'm using this mic is a bit different than it was designed. I'm plugging it into the Comica CVM-D03 Dual Lavalier booster pack (which was designed to provide plug-in power for 2 Comica lavalier mics) and it actually works to power AND boost the Rode VideoMicro, which improves the audio quality a lot compared to just plugging this mic into the Zoom F2. I did try that as well, and while it does sort of work (because you can raise the level of the 32-bit float file in post-production) it sounds
