Sony's super-telephoto lenses have long been divided into two well-defined categories. At one end of the spectrum, you have a variety of relatively affordable super-zooms ranging from 100mm to 800mm. On the other end sit the primes, highly sought-after optics that are just as cumbersome as they are expensive. For years, these categories have been separated. That all ends today with the unveiling of not one but two ultra-lightweight lenses. Introducing the FE 400mm f/4.5 and FE 600mm f

Throughout the history of photography, few aspects have remained the same. Famous names have come and gone, but few have remained strong in their place as pillars of the industry. Among those names sits Olympus, better known today as OM Digital Solutions.
Founded in 1919 as Takachiho Seisakusho, the future Olympus aimed to domestically produce microscopes. It wasn’t until well into the 20s that the moniker “Olympus” came to be, and it wasn’t a camera that bared the name either—it was one of their microscopes. In fact, their first camera wouldn

Using a drone and a flat-lay approach, he’s documented more than 6,500 courts across 28 countries, including every single example to be found across Hong Kong’s variegated landscape.

Everyone and their mothers are in on the digicam trend, a fact reflected in the used-market prices found across most platforms. Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, eBay, B&H Used--everywhere you look, the best-known models are selling for prices that often meet or exceed their debut MSRP.
Take that old favorite of mine, the Canon S95. Extraordinarily capable, exceedingly pocketable, I got it for a song ($130) back in 2023. Three years later, the going rate has more than tripled, with the average price sitting above $400 and pushing $500

Photography is at an interesting crossroads. Mirrorless cameras are faster and more capable than ever, and their lenses smaller and more sophisticated—and all of it climbing in price. Tik Tok trendy cameras are sold out everywhere, and the bull used market continues apace, with some folks reverting to film and others still reaching for turn-of-the-century digital cameras to introduce a look and feel that distinguishes their images.
