Panasonic’s latest digital point and shoot, the Lumix DMC-ZS70 is taking the route that competitors have taken by offering an all-purpose camera fitted with a superzoom lens.
The Lumix ZS70 uses a 20.3-MP 1/2.3-inch MOS sensor with an ISO range of 80-3,200, which can be extended upward to 6,400. Still RAW and JPG images, as well as videos, are saved to an SD card.
Nikon has taken many features from its top-tier APS-C DSLR, the D500, and incorporated them into a body that is more than a third less expensive.
The Nikon D7500 uses the D500’s 20.9-MP CMOS sensor that is tied to the EXPEED 5 image processing engine. The sensor has an ISO of 100-51,200, which can be extended upward to 1.64 million, which should be all that anyone ever needs.
Ricoh Imaging is pushing back against a news report that it is considering scaling back its consumer camera business.
An April 12, 2017, article in the Nikkei newspaper said the company has suffered losses in the consumer camera business and would review strategies for its Ricoh and Pentax brands, which could include exiting the consumer photography segment.
If you own one of the Zeiss ExoLens PRO products for Apple’s iPhone, one of the keys is convenience.
A shortcoming of the original ExoLens Bracket is that it isn’t something that most iPhone owners would want to keep attached all of the time, because it’s a bit ungainly and not compatible with aftermarket cases.
It’s no secret that smartphones have sharply cut into the sales of digital point and shoot cameras.
Canon hopes to make this segment relevant again with the Canon PowerShot SX730 HS – replacement for the SX720 HS that has been on the market for roughly a year.
In its press release, Canon specifically describes the SX730 HS as “a great transitional camera for those looking to use something other or move from a smartphone.”
Canon has borrowed from its mirrorless EOS M system in announcing its latest lens – the Canon EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM.
As its name indicates, this is a macro lens for Canon’s EOS DSLRs with APS-C sensors, where it becomes a full-frame equivalent 56mm.
Zeiss has added its fourth lens for full-frame Sony E-mount cameras.
The Zeiss Batis 135mm is a medium telephoto lens that can be used in many situations, including travel and portrait photography.
Its maximum aperture is f/2.8, which might seem slow in an era of f/1.4 lenses, but Zeiss has never shown an interest in ultra high-speed lenses.
While it’s intended for full-frame cameras, it also can be used with Sony’s APS-C E-mount bodies, where it becomes a 203mm lens.
