The best camera is the one you have with you, and reporters are now being trained to use their smartphones in their newsgathering and become mobile journalists (mojos). But many use iPhones – the staple mobile reporting apps have long been iOS-only.

This week's guests are:
- Florian Reichart, video producer
- Björn Staschen, video journalist, NDR
