Sigma UK recently teamed up with the company Sent Into Space to... well... send a couple of their cameras to space. The group tied a pair of Sigma fp's to two weather balloons and sent them each to an altitude of ~100,000 feet so they could capture some stunning photos and 4K RAW video of Earth from the upper atmosphere.
Blackmagic just unveiled the URSA Mini Pro 12K: an 80MP monster of a cinema camera that can shoot 12K RAW video at up to 60fps. That's 80 megapixels per frame captured at 60 frames per second on a Super 35mm image sensor... for less than $10,000.
Less than a day after an incorrect set of "leaked" Canon 1D X Mark III specs made the rounds online (they were actually 1D X Mark II specs...) it looks like the real deal has been posted. Nokishita got their hands on a full set of leaked product photos and specs, revealing a few interesting things about the upcoming Canon flagship.
Blackmagic has just announced its Pocket Cinema Camera 4K, a Micro Four Thirds compact camera that puts 4K RAW recording in your pocket for $1,295.
One of the best April Fools trolls in the photo industry wasn't a troll at all... which made it that much better. Announced as a joke yesterday to many a rolled eye and "suuuure," Magic Lantern has managed to add Super 35mm 4K RAW video recording to the 5-year-old 5D Mark III.
