Felix Hernandez's photographs are other-worldly. Using intricate miniatures and macro photography techniques, he takes his dreams and translates them into reality through the camera. His latest project, The Wardrobe, is no exception.

Carl Zeiss today uploaded a number of sample photos captured with its new Batis line of full frame lenses for Sony's FE mount. Of the 7 images taken with the 85mm f/1.8 and the 4 with the 25mm f/2, one in particular is causing quite a bit of discussion among Sony shooters.
Do you recognize the DSLR seen in the photograph above? Reader Florian Feuchtner spotted the camera in a Connect Station product photo posted to Canon Austria's Facebook page yesterday. What's strange is that the design doesn't seem to match the backsides of any current Canon DSLR.
The iPad mini and the Mac mini. Those are two "minified" products Apple has released to give its customers a choice for products that are cheaper and more portable. It appears Leica is planning to take a page from Apple's playbook.

Photographer Stephen Oachs over at Aperture Academy caused quite a stir yesterday after sharing some photographs he took of a Japanese photographer he spotted in Kenya.

Earlier this week the New York Times was lent a mysterious photo album that contained 214 photos of Nazi Germany, including images taken just feet away from Hitler. There was no indication of who the photographer was, so the Lens blog decided to publish some of the photos and crowdsource the task of solving the mystery.
Last week The Daily Mail published some photographs of British singer Seal passing through LAX airport with his family. While at first glance it might look like the camera hanging around his neck is a Leica MP film rangefinder, look a little closer and you'll see that it's not -- it doesn't have a battery compartment, a film reverse lever, or a film advance lever...
