ep69 - BILD Expo 2025, Canon R1 Lab Test, New MZed Course & Disney / Universal vs. Midjourney

Right after CineGear, the next big event is already underway. Nino joins in directly from New York to share insights from the BILD Expo, a growing industry trade show hosted by B&H. Now in its second year, the event is quickly gaining recognition across the filmmaking community. But that’s not all—this episode is packed with topics! We dive into the impressive results of the Canon EOS R1 lab test, and revisit a discussion we’ve touched on in previous episodes: why companies like Disney haven’t taken legal action against AI platforms like MidJourney, despite clear concerns around copyright and the use of proprietary material in AI training data. So stop reading and hit play—whether you're watching the video or listening to the audio, enjoy this week’s episode!   Sponsor: This episode is sponsored by FUJIFILM.
