PetaPixel Podcast Debates Most Influential Camera Brands by Decade

In the latest episode of The PetaPixel Podcast, hosts Chris, Jordan, and Jaron engaged in a detailed discussion about the most influential camera brands from the mid-1900s to the present. The conversation, which began at the 43:01 mark, focused not on sales figures but on which companies drove the industry's direction during each era. The episode also covered several other topics, including the passing of their friend Rishi Sanyal, the announcement of the Ricoh GR IVx, and ongoing drama surrounding GoPro, which reportedly has a new owner. Additionally, the hosts discussed the discontinuation of Miller Tripods, a change in Sigma's ordering system for the 14mm f/1.4 lens, and a lighthearted segment about OM System now making ragu. The episode opened with a question about which camera brand the hosts would want to be a primary investor in, and later included a discussion about the GoPro Mission 1 ILS, a short editorial-style video, and a feel-good story of the week. The podcast also promoted PetaPixel Membership benefits, including discounts on Capture One, Moment Store, KEH, FJ Westcott, and Viltrox products, as well as full-resolution RAW files. The episode was recorded using Riverside and is available on YouTube and PetaPixel.
