The Canon leaks are coming hard and fast now that the official product launch is less than 48 hours away. Yesterday we got a peek at the various 8K modes of the EOS R5 and the new 600mm and 800mm f/11 lenses; today, we get our first leaked product photos of the more affordable EOS

The Sigma 14-24mm f2.8 DG DN is fast becoming my favorite L mount lens for the Sigma fp. I’ve been taking it around Scotland to capture some wonderful scenes like his scene of Bow Fiddle Rock close. The wide field of view it provides along with its clean and sharp rendering makes it a joy
As protests against systemic racism swept the globe this year, there have been calls by some photographers for ending the use of the terms “master” and “slave” in the industry. Now Canon has come forward as the first camera company to officially stop using those terms on its camera gear. In photographic lighting, a “master”
It’s been a minute since we’ve heard anything new about Sharp’s interchangeable lens 8K Micro Four Thirds camera, but it looks like they’re trying to take some of the attention away from the upcoming Canon EOS R5 announcement by adding it to the 8K page on their official website They haven’t added a dedicated page
Recent industry-shaking news aside, Olympus isn’t going anywhere just yet. In fact, earlier today, the company revealed an updated lens roadmap and released OM-D Webcam Beta Software: a Windows-only program that turns several of the most popular OM-D cameras into webcams for livestreaming and video conferencing. First up, following in the footsteps of Canon, Fuji,
Photographer Drew Gardner recreates portraits of some of the most famous historic figures, but not with just anyone. He photographs their direct descendants and recreates the iconic portraits to the finest details. One of the latest recreations he made was done with Shannon LaNier, a news anchor, an author, and the sixth great-grandson of Thomas
Wildlife photographers who shoot with Sony have been limited when it comes to lens choice. The Sony 100-400mm GM was released in early 2017, but the price ($2,500) was out of reach for many. Last year, Sony released the 200-600mm G, which was a bit more budget friendly ($2,000) but is a pretty large lens
Since the announcement of the new Nikon D6, it’s been a long wait till the camera was available in the market. Here in Singapore, we finally received the first batch, and I was very fortunate to be invited by Nikon Singapore to have a hand-on experience with the new camera. Like its predecessor the D5,
I like the Microsoft Surface Book 3. In fact, I like it a lot. The build quality is great, and the design is both useful and pretty much unique right now. But it’s also flawed… critically flawed by the selfsame design that makes it a unique product, which is why I can’t recommend it to

Location scouting is one of the important parts of a photo shoot. There are a few ways to do it and in this video, Walid Azami suggests for of them. They’re all very efficient, but don’t come without some drawbacks. Walid reflects on both the good and the bad sides and gives you a whole
You’ve been into photography for a while, you’ve upgraded your skills, and it’s time to upgrade your gear. If you ask me, that’s always exciting, but it can also be stressful: what should you upgrade first? In this video, Scott Choucino discusses this topic and helps you choose between your lens, camera, light, or modifier.
On Monday, we reported on the controversially low score that DXOMark gave to the Canon 1D X Mark III. The brand new camera somehow scored worse in every category than its predecessor, the Mark II. Now we know why. When we were preparing our initial report on the confusing results, we reached out to DXOMark
Panasonic has announced its new G100 camera (G110 in some regions) and it offers some very interesting features – like Nokia’s OZO Audio technology which allows the camera to listen to sound from every direction to pick out and record only what you want it to capture. It’s not perfect, though. In fact, there are
DXOMark has published its review of the sensor inside Canon flagship 1D X Mark III DSLR, giving it a surprisingly low score of just 83. That score has photographers questioning if DXO somehow messed up its testing of this brand new, and much-praised, DSLR. To understand the criticism, you need only look at the overall
[embedded content] Even if you don’t suffer from the so-called Gear Acquisition Syndrome, I’m sure that you’ve bought some gear that turned out to be a bad investment. Evan Ranft sure has. In this fun video, he lists all the gear that was a totally bad choice and that he now regrets buying. Are any
Canon has teased the Canon ESO R5 multiple times, but the company has stayed completely quiet about the rumored EOS R6—the R5’s little sibling. Fortunately, the latest leaks tell us what we can expect from Canon when the announcement rolls around in July. It’s been a big day for Canon Rumors. First, the site revealed
Venus Optics, the company behind Laowa, has announced three new cine lenses. They are the Laowa 7.5mm T2.1 Cine for Micro Four Thirds, the Laowa 9mm T2.9 Zero-D Cine for Super35 and the Laowa 15mm T2.1 Zero-D Cine for “large format” (full-frame) video-capable cameras. Laowa says that all three lenses feature the same optical system
Tamron has been on a roll the last 2 years with E-Mount lenses. After introducing a holy trinity of fast zooms and 3 compact primes with 1:2 macro abilities, the company has announced its newest E-Mount lens: the 28-200mm f/2.8-5.6. With the popularity of Sony’s APS-C and full-frame cameras, both Sigma and Tamron have gone
It looks like Canon’s announcement is coming on July 9th, according to Canon Rumors and not July 2nd as previously speculated. But we’re not just going to hear about the new Canon EOS R5 and EOS R6 mirrorless cameras. Oh no, we’re going to be getting all of those RF lenses and the two Teleconverters
As promised back in March, Tokina has just the ATX-i 11-20mm f/2.8 CF: an ultra-wide angle zoom lens for crop-sensor DSLRs from Nikon and Canon. With a fixed f/2.8 aperture and affordable price tag, it should prove to be a very popular option for APS-C users. This lens is an update of one of Tokina’s
[embedded content] Gear shootouts pop up on YouTube all the time, usually touting the benefits of this bit of kit over another. But this particular video doesn’t do any of that. Instead, this “shootout” is a bit more literal, with a little gang warfare using weaponised cameras and a not-entirely-unexpected twist at the end. It
After some very accurate leaks last week, Sigma has officially revealed four products today: an affordable 100-400mm f/5-6.3 telephoto zoom lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras, two teleconverters for L-Mount mirrorless lenses, and a USB dock for Sigma’s L-Mount and EF-M Mount mirrorless lenses. Sigma 100-400mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS | Contemporary Sigma dropped a lot
As states around the country begin the process of re-opening after COVID lockdown, Nikon USA has officially re-opened its service facilities. Service centers are still closed for walk-in service, but if your camera needs fixing, you can now send it in by mail. The update was added to the Nikon USA service and repair website
Four days ago, Sony quietly issued a product advisory for three of its SD card product lines that could potentially corrupt your video footage when used. The company will replace these cards for free if your serial number is affected. The notice—first spotted by Dan Carr over at Shuttermuse—refers to three affected products: The regular
[embedded content] While digital photography and post-processing have done away with the need for certain types of lens filters, there are still a number of filters that can’t be replaced by Photoshop. Here’s a 8.5-minute video by DPReview on which filters you should still consider keeping in your camera bag. The four filters introduced by
[embedded content] Portrait photographer Miguel Quiles is tackling one of the most common beginner questions out there: should I invest in speedlights or strobes? In this video, he covers the pros and cons of both, and which you should go with depending on your needs and shooting style. As with almost any gear comparison, the
The team at Lensrentals just published Part 2 of their fascinating flange distance test, where they compared various Sony, Canon, and Micro Four Thirds stills cameras. What they found is particularly relevant to Sony shooters, or anyone with a camera that has IBIS. In case you missed it, Roger Cicala and his team recently embarked
Notoriously reliable site Nokishita has posted a list of six lenses and two teleconverters that Canon is planning to release in 2020. All of them are RF-mount lenses, some are exciting, and some of them are quite strange… like the 600mm f/11 and 800mm f/11 super-telephoto primes. First things first, here is the full list:
Tamron’s 70-180mm f/2.8 Di III VXD lens for Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras has been a huge hit since it was announced. But buyer beware: the company has released a product advisory after discovering that some lenses suffer from a calibration issue, resulting in poor performance. The “notice” for “users and potential purchasers” was published June
