Deal: Canon PowerShot G9X for $399

The Canon PowerShot G9X is now available for $399 (orig. $529). If you aren’t familiar with the G9X, it is a point-and-shoot camera with a 20MP 1″ class sensor. It is poised to compete against the Sony RX100 series and, at $399, is finally priced right to do so. You can find it at the […]

The Fujifilm GFX 50S and Canon 5DS R face off to find out if all pixels are created equally

When the 36MP Nikon D800 was originally released in 2012, it was hailed as the “medium format killer”. Well, medium format has not only survived, but seems to be thriving. It’s even started to make its way into slightly less expensive markets thanks to the introduction of the Hasselblad X1D and Fujifilm GFX 50S. They’re […]

10 reasons why this photographer switched from Canon to Sony

I know, I get it, you’re sick of all the “why I switched” posts, already. But, photographer Francisco Hernandez has some pretty compelling reasons for his switch from the Canon 6D to the Sony A7RII.

Canon EOS M6 Continues to Expand Mirrorless Product Line

The Canon EOS M6 is the technical successor to the EOS M3. As such, it appears that Canon is realigning its rather confusing EOS M product naming scheme to mirror (if you will) its DSLR product line. After replacing the EOS M3, the M6 fits in the mid-range enthusiast segment between the EOS M5 (pro-ish) […]

Canon Rebel T7i and 77D Unveiled as Updates to Rebel T6i & T6s

Canon has launched the Rebel T7i and 77D as its new entry-level models, which now fill the roles of the preceding Rebel T6i and Rebel T6s. Opting for a bit of a different naming scheme the 77D seems to befit the prosumer model classification better than calling it the T7s; however, that’s clearly what the […]

Leaked photos show Canon’s M6 mirrorless is basically a smaller M5 with optional EVF

Both photos and specs seemed to have been leaked for Canon’s upcoming M6 mirrorless camera. And there seems very little to distinguish it from the EOS M5, released only a few months ago. In fact, the only real differences seem visual. There’s a slightly different control layout on top, the popup flash has moved, and the electronic viewfinder […]

Canon’s 250MP APS-H sensor probably won’t be coming to DSLRs

I still remember clutching a pair of Nikon D100 bodies back in 2004 when Nikon announced the insanely high resolution 12MP D2x. It seemed so wild back then when other high end bodies were still only 4-8MP. People lamented on various forums about “the laws of physics” and how quickly the megapixel race would end. […]
