A little way back, Canva bought Affinity. People worried. More recently, Affinity teased a big announcement. People really worried. But, as we talk a week following that announcement, Affinity is free forever and has added a million users.
And the Affinity apps are all updated and merged into a new Studio.
So this week we talk about the merger of companies, of products, of hardware and software. Mergers we like, mergers that failed, mergers we would like to see in the future of photography!
What do you think about all this?

Show Notes – The Future of Photography
This week, Chris and Adrian talk about the rise of digital cameras that simulate the analog experience. From film advance levers and stripped-down interfaces to the absence of screens and menus, more photographers are embracing limitations to rediscover creative freedom. They discuss cameras like the Fujifilm X Half, the Yashica FX-D, and the Pixii Camera, and how these devices cater to a growing desire for intentionality in the digital age. Along the way, they reference earlier pioneers like the Epson R-D1 and the screenless Leica M-D, and reflect on whether JPEGs are becoming the new “film” in a post-editing world.
Picks of the week:
