If you’re a Pentax shooter who has been waiting for years to buy a full-frame K-mount DSLR, your wait will soon be coming to an end. Pentax parent company Ricoh has finally officially announced that it’s developing a full frame Pentax DSLR. Ricoh says the currently-unnamed camera will be arriving by the end of 2015, and that it will be compatible with the Pentax DA series of lenses with the help of a crop function. The product photo above may not be what the actual camera looks like when it’s unveiled — it’s simply a concept...
read moreLast month we shared a news segment that explored the renaissance that appears to be happening in the world of analog photography. Now a new poll is backing that idea up with statistics. Nearly a third of film photographers are younger than 35 years of age, and “support for traditional film is growing,†says Ilford Photo. The company, best known for its analog photo products, reported these findings after doing an international survey of film users. The “comprehensive†survey was conducted at the tail end of 2014, and...

read moreA Post By: Barry J Brady In many ways, shutter speed is an inaccurate term. I read an article a few years ago and the photographer referred to shutter speed as shutter time. The logic was spot on. A shutter always opens or closes at the same “speedâ€. The key value is how long the shutter stays open, hence shutter time. On Canon cameras the shutter speed function (shutter priority) on the mode dial is abbreviated to Tv, which stands for “Time Valueâ€, and is a more accurate description of what this article is about. I am going to refer...
read moreA Post By: Anne McKinnell I love to travel. To me, nothing compares to living on the road and waking up to new places every day. All the different photographs I’ve made during my journeys are the most rewarding part of it all. Making photos while traveling or on vacation has a special quality because you’re seeing your subjects often for the first time. Travel also presents unique challenges, though – unfamiliar landscape, climate, and culture can easily throw you off. However, it is those very things that can also make beautiful,...
read moreSince it doesn’t have on-sensor PDAF, I wouldn’t expect it to be as good as the E-M1 at driving Four Thirds lenses, which are primarily designed for PDAF. I’ve not had a chance to check yet, though. The E-M1 is one of the best-handling small cameras I’ve ever used, so I wouldn’t quite rate the E-M5 II as highly. The M5 II is smaller, cheaper and prettier, though. Source Article from...
read moreOlympus has unveiled the OM-D E-M5 II. Picking up where its successor left off, the E-M5 II continues to offer weather sealing and 5-axis IS while adding a redesigned 16MP Four Thirds sensor and 5-axis image stabilization. The E-M5 II also boasts a 40MP high resolution shot mode, achieved by shifting the sensor in half-pixel steps and capturing eight images over a period of one second. The E-M5 II also offers a built-in 2.36 million dot EVF, Wi-Fi and an articulating 3″ 1.04 million dot touchscreen LCD. It’s...
read moreOlympus has announced a revamped, second generation of its 14-150mm F4.0-5.6 zoom. Resistant to dust and moisture, it uses a new ZERO (Zuiko Extra-low Reflection Optical) coating to protect against scratches and minimize flare. The 28-300mm equivalent lens uses Olympus’ MSC (Movie and Still Compatible) focusing technology for quiet, fast AF. It will be available in March for $599.99 Press release: A NEW BENCHMARK FOR VERSATILITY: THE OLYMPUS M.ZUIKO® DIGITAL ED 14-150mm f4.0-5.6 II LENS Olympus’ Improved...
read moreThe Olympus OM-D E-M1 is about to get a significant update with the release of firmware version 3.0 later this month. The update’s primary function is to boost maximum framerate from 6.5 fps to 9 when shooting in continuous AF mode. This is thanks to enhancements for the camera’s 37-point phase-detect algorithm. The maximum of 10 fps remains for shooting with fixed AF. Also included in the update is the ability to record movies while using the E-M1 with the latest version of the O.I.S. app. Press release:...
read moreOlympus Japan has announced the ‘Air’ – a new camera which clips onto smartphones in much the same way as Sony’s QX-series products. The Air features a 16MP Four Thirds sensor behind a Micro Four Thirds lens mount, a physical shutter release button and tripod mount. Inside you’ll find a microSD slot and lithium-ion battery. The Air has an 81-point AF system and can shoot at an impressive maximum rate of 10 frames per second. We’re following up with Olympus to see if there will be Raw...
read moreNever in my wildest dreams did I think I would begin 2015 by shooting a Super Bowl commercial. Even further removed from the unlikeliness of shooting said commercial is… well… shooting said commercial in seven images. Not seven scenarios or seven videos — seven photos. The idea, straight from the mind of Pete over at LaneTerralever, was to parallax a commercial. “What is parallax†you say? Think of when you were in grade school and you had to do one of those cheesy plays where every parent in the audience thinks that his or...
read moreOn May 31st, 2014, a small Cessna plane crashed in a field a few miles away from Denver, killing its pilot and passenger. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) just published a report with findings from its investigation, concluding that the crash was most likely caused by the pilot becoming disoriented while taking selfies of himself. In its report, the NTSB states that a GoPro was found near the wreckage with its files intact. The footage recovered from the camera shows the pilot, Amritpal Singh, snapping selfies with...

The online show Objectivity recently paid a visit to The Royal Society in London to see its copy of Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions, a 1843 book by English botanist and photographer Anna Atkins that’s considered to be the first book ever to be illustrated exclusively with photographs. The book’s title page. Only 17 copies of this book are known to exist in the world, and the Royal Society’s 403-page, 389-photo...
