Canon's EOS R-series cameras, such as the R5, R6, and R6 Mark II, are excellent mirrorless cameras and rival the best available in their respective price ranges. However, since Canon launched its first full-frame mirrorless camera, the original EOS R, in 2018, users have complained about chronically loose hot shoes.
Keno Tokina has started selling a red dot sight that allows photographers to quickly check their shooting range or track a moving subject that might be difficult to see when using a particularly long telephoto lens.
Canon has finally revealed the full details of its latest professional camera, the $5,999 EOS R3. It features a backside-illuminated stacked 24.1-megapixel sensor, up to 30 frames per second blackout-free shooting, 6K RAW video capture, and much more.
As part of development announcements, Canon has revealed that its forthcoming EOS R3 camera will have a more advanced hot shoe than previous cameras, and the company's latest camcorder announcement shows that it might be a lot more useful.
Profoto has just unveiled the latest iteration of the A1 series of round-head speedlights. First came the Profoto A1, then the Profoto A1X, and now the company has unveiled the Profoto A10: basically an A1X with Bluetooth and "AirX" technology built in.
Canon upset photographers recently after it was discovered that its latest entry-level DSLR cameras lack the standard center hotshoe pin common on cameras, making them incompatible with many affordable 3rd-party flashes. But there's good news: Godox has responded by releasing firmware updates that fix this issue.
Nikon today unveiled the upcoming DF-M1, a red dot sight designed for photographers who shoot fast and unpredictable moving subjects with super-telephoto lenses.
A few months ago, Nikon released a stainless steel hot shoe cover, the ASC-01, to help you spice up the look of your DSLR and protect its hot shoe mount contact points. Now, the company has released a new leather variation with gold writing. The ASC-02, as it is called, is only being sold in Japan for a price of ¥3,500 (~$28), but we're pretty sure it'll appear on eBay soon, just as the last model previously did.
The Nikon D750 has a hot shoe that's different than the hot shoes on previous Nikon DSLRs, and the minor difference is causing major problems for some photographers. At least, that's what the flash and accessory maker Phottix is claiming.
Nikon has announced a new product called the Nikon ASC-01, a new stainless steel insert for your camera's hot shoe mount. It slides right into the mount when it's not in use, giving your camera a shinier and more "complete" look.
Olympus had some pretty big camera announcements today, unveiling the E-M5 II and the Air. Lost amidst the hoopla was a small new accessory called the EE-1. It's a red dot sight hotshoe attachment that helps you aim your camera at hard-to-track subjects.
The world of camera gear is getting really into this whole touchscreen thing. Touchscreen interfaces appeared on a bevy of cameras at Photokina this month (especially when paired with Android OS) and even on a new light meter, the Sekonic L-478D. The latest guest to crash the party? The flash.
The new Metz 52 AF-1 is the world's first hot-shoe mounted flash unit to offer a touchscreen interface. Granted, the screen isn't as flashy as the touchscreens found on the devices mentioned above -- it won't be winning any beauty contests anytime soon -- but it gets the job done.
Big bulky cameras can be pretty intimidating when they're used to photograph young children. For a cheap and simple way to make yours a little more child-friendly, consider using a PEZ candy dispenser as a fun, attention-grabbing hotshoe accessory.
