Sigma released an interesting lens that’s not much heavier than some 24-105mm F4 lenses, the Sigma 28-105mm F2.8. This lens costs $1500 and we’re happy to have this option. This lens extends when zooming and does not have optical image stabilization but these were likely necessary sacrifices to keep the …
The long awaited successor to the Canon C70 is here, the Canon C80 Cinema Camera. The only disappointment to us is that it doesn’t have DGO (dual-gain) sensor like the C70. However, it does make a few quality of life improvements, a full frame sensor, and provides some additional outputs, …
Atomos has released a $399 device that lets you record video from your camera to your phone. But not any phone. Right now it’s just the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max and in the future the Samsung S24 will be supported. We’re not sure this device makes more …
Props to Nikon for releasing an interesting and affordable F1.4 lens. And at a desirable focal length at that. You cannot expect this lens to be optically great at its price but it turns out it’s more than good enough (and stopped down does turn great). Also, it has nice …
The Leica D-Lux 8 Digital Camera is a quite unexpected camera. But we welcome any camera manufacturer trying something different or novel. This has a 4/3″ sensor and a built-in zoom lens. Panasonic has put out this kind of camera in the past and we always hoped they would continue …
There is not much of a market or use case for small sensor cameras anymore (like this 1/2.3″ sensor camera), but ultrazooms is one of the places that they make sense. It has a 20-1200mm zoom range which gives you both a wide angle and an incredible telephoto. Image quality …
Canon’s long rumored EOS R1 flagship camera is indeed upon us. Although it would also be appropriate to think about it as an R3 Mark II. This camera has a 24mp sensor and prioritizes speed and thus is less of an all-arounder than the Canon R5 II or the Nikon …
The Canon EOS R5 Mark II is here after many years of waiting. Canon shooters, particularly those already using the R5 or R5C, will likely find this camera interesting. The big question is whether or not Canon has done enough at a good enough price relative to the competition. The …
There are now rumors of Nikon releasing a global shutter camera using Sony’s global shutter sensor. Likely a lower megapixel model compared to the Z8/Z9. However, for Nikon’s purposes a non-global shutter with a fast read out would make a lot of sense so we’re not at all certain that …
As mirrorless becomes more dominant and relevant to filmmakers, manufactures have started to produce more lenses for their platforms. Mirrorless mount physics should make possible a better quality of lens than what was possible before. Zeiss has released this interesting set of lenses with 6 focal lengths all at T1.5: …
