[ad_1] You can shoot full-frame 4K video at up to 30 fps, or 1080p at up to 120 fps with all video limited to 4:2:0 8-bit and 100Mbps bit rates. You also get both S-Log2 and S-Log3 recording to maximize dynamic range. That’s not bad, but for $200 more, Panasonic’s full-frame S5 shoots 4K at […]

Fujifilm unveils the ‘world’s first’ f/1.0 lens with autofocus
[ad_1] Fujifilm Unlike the manual focus Z-Noct, Fujifilm’s f/1.0 lens has an autofocus system that will make it easier to use. Fujifilm said that it’s “fast and precise… even in near darkness,” and added that manual focus is easier too thanks to a new focus ring design. Autofocus lenses with extremely low f/stops are notoriously […]
Sony’s cameras can now be used as webcams, too
[ad_1] Following most of its rivals, Sony is helping you look better on Zoom calls with a software release that transforms its mirrorless, compact and DLSR cameras into webcams. The Imaging Edge Webcam app for Windows 10 works on models from the 2014 A7S up to the recent A7R IV and A6600 models. It also […]
Olympus’ E-M10 IV gains more resolution and a flip-down selfie screen
[ad_1] The other big change is the addition of a flip-down screen, rather than an articulating display as before. That should make it better for selfie shooters and vloggers, though not quite as good as the E-M5 III, which has a fully articulating flip-out display. Otherwise, the E-M10 IV is much the same as the […]
Nikon’s full-frame Z5 has in-body stabilization for $1,399
[ad_1] Despite all that tech, it offers pretty mediocre shooting speeds of 4.5 fps with full autofocus and AE. That’s just a touch less than Canon’s 5 fps EOS RP, but far less what you’ll find on comparably-priced APS-C cameras like Sony’s 11 fps A6600. Nikon As mentioned, video isn’t a strong point with the […]
Canon unveils its flagship 45-megapixel EOS R5 mirrorless camera
[ad_1] With smaller pixels, it probably won’t fare as well in low-light as the EOS R6, also unveiled today. The ISO range runs from 100-51,200 and is expandable to ISO 102,400. As for autofocus, the new Dual Pixel CMOS AF II has 100 percent coverage with 1,053 AF areas. It combines a high-speed sensor readout […]
Fujifilm has released its macOS webcam tool
[ad_1] When Fujifilm released software that transformed X-series and GFX cameras into very fancy webcams, it only worked on Windows PCs and not Macs. Later on, the company said it would rectify that quickly by releasing a macOS version sometime in mid-July. That time has now come, as Fujifilm has now dropped the X Webcam […]
Sony will release an ‘all-new’ A7S camera this summer
[ad_1] Sony hasn’t released a new A7S camera for nearly five years, leaving some video shooters and low-light photographers in the lurch. Don’t worry, though — a successor is nearly here. Company VP Kenji Tanaka told DPReview in an interview that a third-generation A7S mirrorless camera will arrive “later this summer.” The executive didn’t spoil […]
Olympus is selling off its consumer camera business
[ad_1] It’s unclear how this might affect owners of Olympus mirrorless cameras like the flagship O-MD E-M1 Mark III. JIP plans to streamline the business as it did with VAIO to make it “more compact, efficient and agile,” according to Olympus. It will also sell the existing models and develop new ones, so it would […]
Panasonic mirrorless cameras now work as webcams
[ad_1] Webcams tend not to have the sharpest picture quality, so in some instances, it might be a better idea to use your DSLR, mirrorless or compact camera instead. However, most computers aren’t equipped to interpret the video signal coming from a camera’s USB or HDMI output. Panasonic is joining Canon and Fujifilm in releasing […]
