    Blackmagic Design's new global approach

    While this is for video at this point, it shows in which direction technology is moving. Blackmagic Design has launched an app for iOS devices and a cloud system that feature a "pro" video camera interface for iOS devices and immediate availability of the footage for editing with DaVinci...

    Miracles happen - the G9 II

    Much more than I had expected. Much better than the G9 for stills. Better than the GH6 for video unless you need RAW video. Very impressive! https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/panasonic-lumix-dc-g9-ii-initial-review-the-g9-series-matures It's not a question of if but when 💸

    X-S20, the "bee's knees" of hybrid cameras?

    Sometimes cameras are launched that just fit the bill. The X-S20 seems to be one of those cameras. It's compact, lightweight, carries a large battery, is reasonably priced, and offers specifications and image/video quality that just a couple of years ago would be seen as very good, even for...

    Space rocket launches, why is the old footage better?

    S5II/x, the replacement for S5, S1, S1R and S1H?

    The S5II/X is a very interesting camera, mainly aimed at hybrid stills/video shooters. Its features are way beyond anything at its price point, particularly the X version. Here's Photo Joseph's take: Gerald Undone: Kai: Richard Wong: That blind man: What is interesting is that most...

    PureRAW 2, upgrade?

    Launched recently, yesterday or today? Upgrade or not. Has anybody tried? Is it as fast as they claim? https://shop.dxo.com/en/dxo-pureraw-2.html

    The Laowa 6mm – this is significant

    I have been wanting a lens wider than 7mm for a while, mostly due to my work with yacht interiors. Venus Lens/Laowa apparently heard my prayers and launched their 6mm for MFT. For now, it's only available as a cine lens. Hopefully, a stills version with electronics will arrive before too long...

    GH6

    For me, it's very simple: if the price isn't totally beyond my means, I should just buy this camera and call it a day. Rumoured specs: 25 million pixel PLF-less sensor High resolution shooting of 100 million pixels 5.7K video Sensor readout up to 300fps High-speed readout of 120 fps...

    The OM-1

    All versions of the Olympus E-M1 have been impressive cameras, but at least in my view, there have always been some key features missing. With the new OM-1, most or all of this seems to be corrected. This will be a very impressive camera. Full specs...

    Canon R5C... for me?

    I've spent the last 24 hours watching videos by people who have actually used this new Canon, trying to avoid the spec-sheet readers who all complain about the lack of IBIS, and trying to figure out if this is for me. It does lack IBIS of course, but most of Canon's lenses have IS, there's even...

    The 400mm

    Now I really would like to get back to sports photography. Since I would have to sell my car to buy it, this would technically then become my walkaround lens, wouldn't it? https://www.nikonusa.com/en/nikon-products/product/mirrorless-lenses/nikkor-z-400mm-f%252f2.8-tc-vr-s.html Look at one of...

    The Laowa 24mm probe lens

    I've often wondered who is actually buying that lens. Here's a photographer who has put it to good use: https://www.charlesbrooks.info/architecture-in-music And here's the lens for those who haven't seen it: https://www.venuslens.net/product/laowa-24mm-f-14-2x-macro-probe/

    Topaz Sharpen AI v3.3.3

    I bought the complete Topaz package the other day. The price was low and I've been curious to see what can be achieved with these apps. First out is Sharpen AI. That's scary stuff. Below is a photo taken with a Panasonic GH1 with the Zeiss 85mm f/1.4 back in 2010. It was out of focus and very...

    The Z-mount 24-120

    Watching reviews of Z-mount Nikkors has become boring. They are all so good. It's just a question of choosing a focal and aperture range that is suitable. Anyway, here it is, the calmest camera reviewer out there, Ricci and the 24-120: Unfortunately, it won't mount on my D2Xs or F80...

    OM System 20mm f/1.4

    Here's a lens that I consider. Would be a perfect replacement for my Panasonic 25mm f/1.7. Watch this Chinese review (English subtitles). Rather funny, hardly any tech talk and loads of great photos:

    Nick Brandt - The day may break

    He's out with a new book. Again it's something really, really different. This one is shot on digital medium format. He commented when I asked him "This had to be digital (medium format) because with the fog constantly shifting every frame, I needed to check to see what it looked like at the end...

    Two new M.Zuiko lenses

    As if we needed more great lenses for this system... or maybe we do. That 20 mm is tempting. Actually, the zoom is too. Wonder if it takes the 1.4x TC...

    Interesting Zuiko 150-400mm review

    He compares it to the Sony 200-600mm on an A9. There are some confusion about numbers in the video (clearly technical data aren't his first priority), but it's corrected with text overlays. This is a lens that I haven't so far considered seriously, but as I'm changing quite a few parameters...
