What's stopping you from creating?

We’re back in the studio talking cameras, creativity, and content creation—and this time, we’re deep-diving into the gear that’s changing the game, the mindset hurdles no one talks about, and why your smartphone might be your best creative tool (yes, seriously).We kick things off with a review of the Panasonic Lumix S1R2—a beast of a camera with a 44.3MP full-frame sensor, 8K video, and buttery smooth stabilization. But it’s not all tech specs and sharpness—we also unpack the confusion around model names, crop sensors, and why choosing the "right" camera can feel so overwhelming.From there, the conversation gets personal. We share our early photography stories, how collaborations shaped our creative paths, and why having supportive people around you makes all the difference—especially when the biggest obstacle is just filming yourself.Tyler joins in to talk smartphone filmmaking, life in Barcelona, and how iPhones are making high-quality storytelling more accessible than ever (despite a few quirks). We also explore how editing older RAW files live might be the most underrated way to show growth.Things get real as we open up about burnout, content strategy, and the pressures of always being “on.” We contrast reactive vs. proactive content creation, share our favorite lightweight gear setups, and talk about keeping creativity fun—even when algorithms are screaming for consistency.Oh—and if you’ve ever wondered about anamorphic lenses, DJI drones with vertical video, or which camera you should buy without breaking the bank (Canon G7X Mark III, anyone?), we’ve got you covered.It’s equal parts tech talk and creative therapy—with plenty of laughs along the way.🔗 Website: [https://www.cortandluke.com](https://www.cortandluke.com)📸 Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/cortandluke](https://www.instagram.com/cortandluke)🎬 TikTok: [https://www.tiktok.com/@cortandluke?\_t=8r93xifpxqy&\_r=1](https://www.tiktok.com/@cortandluke?_t=8r93xifpxqy&_r=1)Hosted by: Luke Montgomery and Cort Letcher\#photographypodcast #gearreview #creativeburnout #contentcreation #filmmakingtools #iphonevideography #backupworkflow #freelancephotography #dronecinematography #photographytips #creativehustle #communityovercompetition
