Micael Widell Newsletter #52
Captain's log
During July I've been taking some time off from youtube work, to travel and hang out with my family, who were also off from work and school. It was pretty nice.
I still published some videos though! I made a few short form videos, because I feel curious about this type of content that seems very popular. Posted them as tiktoks, instagram reels and as youtube shorts.
I also tested the new AK Mini diffuser (cygnustech's main competitor), and posted a review of the interesting Mitakon 200mm macro lens, as well as a Q&A video with some viewer questions!
August will probably also be a month with slightly lower productivity from my side, as kids/wife will continue to be home from school/work for most of the month. But I will of course still make and post as much as possible :) Right now I'm working on my review of the new Pergear 60mm 2x macro lens that covers full frame and only costs $200!
