The A2-Collaboration uses a beam of real photons from the tagged photon facility at the electron accelerator MAMI in Mainz, Germany, to study photo-produced mesons. A new tagging device allows access to the higher photon beam energy range of 1.4 to 1.6 GeV. A large dataset containing more than 6 million η′ and roughly 29 million ω decays has been obtained. Analyses are ongoing, including a study of the cusp effect and Dalitz plot in η′ → ηπ0π0, giving insight to the ππ scattering length and the structure of the ηππ system, as well as the measurement of the electromagnetic transition form factor in η′ → e+e−γ, a cross section measurement of γp → 3π0, and branching ratio analyses of η′ → ωγ and ω → ηγ.
