    Leica S3

    Hands-on preview: https://www.dpreview.com/articles/1038918787/photokina-2018-hands-on-with-the-leica-s3?slide=3 What I like about the S-line vs the Fuji is the aspect ratio of the Leica. And of course the lenses, although I think the Fuji offering is quite nice. But to be honest, I have the...

    Fuji GFX Lenses vs. Hasselblad X1D

    A nice twist: Laowa will offer a 17mm f/4 lens for the GFX: https://www.dpreview.com/news/2026702607/venus-optics-shows-8-new-laowa-models-including-the-widest-fujifilm-gfx-lens It's interesting that third party manufacturers are starting to offer lenses for the Fuji...

    Leica S3

    Wondering who is making the sensor, and if we will see it on other cameras.

    Is it true? Fuji GFX Capture One support?

    Fuji announces new mirrorless medium format cameras and lenses. Phase one starts to support Fuji after years and years of excluding other MF vendors. How does that deal look like. We give you C1 support, you give us....? Phase one does not have a mirrorless solution. Maybe a collaboration with...

    New Phase One IQ3-100 Trichromatic and XF Feature Set # 4

    Reading the very short technical points P1 presents on their web page, it looks like the color array has been changed to have little (or no) overlap in wavelength between the different color filters. The consequence is that (I guess): - Better color resolution, each pixel is dedicated to a color...

    Solar eclipse totality, Bracketting, Sony EFCS

    I plan to be around Yellowstone, but haven't setteled on an exact spot yet. Yes, it seems like the best is to do some tests. One option is to shoot at the moon to get in the righ ballpark for shutter speeds.

    Solar eclipse totality, Bracketting, Sony EFCS

    Hi, So like I am sure many of you, I am thinking about my solar eclipse photography plans. During totality, I would like to try to get an HDR image of the sun's corona. For that, I will have a tracking mount (EQ5), and a Canon 500mm f/4 telephoto lens (Image Stabilization Off). Behind the...

    Airline electronics ban

    I don't think cost is the main issue. I would worry more about customs, and other administrative paperwork. When you bring carry-on, with a return ticket, it is pretty easy to assume that you'll go back, with your gear. When you ship something, customs may assume that it is an import, and will...

    Airline electronics ban

    As far as I understand, yes. What goes in the hold is X-ray-ed with much more power than what goes in the cabin luggage.

    Airline electronics ban

    To go back on topic... Does anybody know, if in the countries already affected by the ban, camera lenses have to be checked in or not ? If the rule is about larger electronics in general, then I would think yes, but if it's explicitly battery powered stuff, then perhaps it is ok to take them as...

    Airline electronics ban

    Is there a limit on the amount your equipment can cost to enter the US, as a tourist ? Is this because it may be considered an import ? I've never had problems entering, because I also have a ticket to leave (so the gear will also leave the country). Or am I missing something ?

    Airline electronics ban

    Well, considering the rationality of all this, it wouldn't surprise me at all if everything that has electronics (lenses do) and are bigger than a cell phone would be banned. And wasn't it that batteries had to be transported in the hand luggage, because of the risk of fire in the hold ? Go...
