The latest vintage digital camera to get Gordon Laing's fantastic "Retro Review" treatment is 2001's Sony Cyber-shot F707 camera. The L-shaped 5-megapixel camera was sold as a premium all-in-one compact.
Alongside the new Canon EOS R100 mirrorless camera, Canon also announced a new pancake-style prime lens for RF-mount, the RF 28mm f/2.8 STM. While announced simultaneously with the APS-C R100 camera, the RF 28mm is a full-frame lens.
In his latest Retro Review, Gordon Laing of Camera Labs takes photographers back to 1996 when Olympus launched its Camedia consumer camera series with a trio of digital cameras, the C-400, C-400L, and Laing's focus, the highest-end C-800L.
Released nearly three decades ago in 1994, the QuickTake 100 was Apple's first digital camera and among the very first digital cameras available to general consumers. But as much of an impact as it had back then, it hasn't aged well.
Photographer Gordon Laing of Camera Labs is back with another edition of his retrospective "Retro Review" video series. This time, Laing focuses on the Sony Cyber-shot DSC F505, a consumer-oriented digital camera released 24 years ago.
Photographer Gordon Laing is back with a new edition of Dino Bytes, the series where he revisits classic cameras from decades past. This time he's dusting off the 23-year-old Nikon D1, the company's first DSLR.
Photographer Gordon Laing from Camera Labs and Dino Bytes has released a special episode dedicated to one of the strangest digital cameras released in the 90s - The Nintendo Game Boy Camera.
After months of teasing, Canon finally let me get my hands onto a pre-production EOS R3 for a few days, during which time I tried every test I could think of.
One of the most exciting things about capturing high resolution video with the Panasonic LX100 is the ability to extract high resolution still photos from it. Video grabbing is not a new thing, but in standard definition you were looking at stills measuring a third of a Megapixel, and even in Full HD you'd only enjoy 2 Megapixels. But with 4k video you can make 8 Megapixel grabs which is much more useful.
I was under the spell of mirrorless ILCs from their birth in 2009 when Panasonic and Olympus literally tore up the rule book and started from scratch. Their debut models, the G1 and EP1, may have been a little rough around the edges, but I was immediately smitten: these were the future of cameras, at least as far as I was concerned.
At last an interchangeable lens camera with a sensor big enough to deliver high quality images, but a body small enough that I'd never leave it at home; the lens selection grew quickly and as for the full-time electronic composition, I embraced the positives, sold my full-frame DSLR and never looked back.
