This camera features an aluminum unibody and a trimmed down control scheme that brings things down to the essentials. Alongside the camera, Sigma is going big with the release of the stunning

A new year means more new products are on the horizon—not to mention the anticipation of what this year’s conventions might bring. But before we get too carried away wondering what’s to come, let’s revisit what came out this past week, including new products from Leica, DZOFilm, and Wescott.
Leica Levels up with the SL3-S

On many levels, Nikon is focused on the cutting edge. Their cameras and lenses are some of the most forward-thinking around, sporting unique features, speedy recording, top-tier autofocus, and the most up-to-date feature sets that appeal to modern image-makers. In other ways, though, Nikon hasn’t lost sight of their heritage. With select models, both on the camera and lens front, they pay homage to their past with distinct, retro-inspired

Humans’ fascination with the stars is as old as our ability to think and ask questions. For millennia we, as a species, were limited to observing the heavens with just our eyes. Of course, back then we were able to see more because light pollution didn’t exist, but making detailed observations was impossible. The invention of the microscope led to the development of the telescope, which allowed people to finally start exploring the larger universe. As technological advances were made and telescopes got bigger and better, their reach and the

In a stunning reversal of fortune, point-and-shoot cameras—which have long been dismissed as defunct—are currently experiencing a major resurgence. In both new and used markets, sales of point and shoots are way, fueled in part by nostalgia and the perceived shortcomings of smartphone cameras. With expanded feature sets, manual exposure controls, built-in and/or external flash support, and optical

OWC has been aggressively pushing into the memory card space over the past few years—a move that only seems natural for a company already known for creating excellent storage solutions. With a history of reliable and fast memory options, it should come as no surprise that their card offerings feature top-of-the-line specs or push the media further than it has in the past. That is certainly the case with the Atlas Pro

After the mega news that was the Canon EOS R1 and R5 Mark II, things have slowed down a bit. That doesn't mean there isn't anything new to share. The biggest bits of news from the past couple weeks come from Tamron and Atomos—both well-known and highly-regarded companies that make products for everyday photographers and videographers and not just pros.
Tamron is truly aiming for everyone with their lens release: a 28-300mm f/4-7.1 Di III VC

Believe it or not, when a spacecraft leaves the earth with a camera as a part of its scientific suite, there are real-world similarities between the cameras on interplanetary space probes and the cameras we sell at B&H—especially now in the age of digital photography. In this article we will look at all the American spacecraft that have ventured beyond earth orbit and discuss their various camera systems.

After a relatively quiet summer, this past week's busy release schedule is putting us back in action.
RØDE announced an even more impressive mic system for creators: the Wireless PRO. This brings 32-bit float recording and other "pro" features, like timecode, to the series.
Tamron continues to show off more and more glass and better compatibility with the development of a

Describing the state of camera development in 2022 is a difficult task, partly because when you think you’ve identified the trend, a new camera immediately comes out afterward and bucks that idea. The main trend I can identify regarding cameras in 2022 is that the field is in a state of flux; we’re clearly in a transitional time, but we haven’t fully transitioned into “the future” (of camera development).
Video and content creation is a topic that’s seemingly on everyone’s mind but, at the same time, a number of high-profile releases from this

The last few months have been a whirlwind for FUJIFILM's mirrorless division, with the company unveiling a suite of new sensor technologies inside the successors to a line of cameras that not everyone was sure would ever return. While the X-H2 and X-H2S are very exciting cameras and deserving of their flagship status, they aren't necessarily what most people think of when they think of FUJIFILM cameras: that would be the X-T line, and many have been waiting to see what these announcements would mean for the

If Atomos’s monitors are already great, what could possibly make them better? If you ask Atomos, the brand would say adding more connectivity options so shooters can send their footage directly to the cloud to stream to the outside world or to instantly share with collaborators ups the ante. This is what the CONNECT lineup delivers and, after spending some time with it, I can confirm that it is a true next step for Atomos monitors.
Three Monitors on Display
The CONNECT series comprises a total of three products:
