One of several photographers who are currently testing the unreleased Canon EOS R3 at the Tokyo Olympics has shared a burst from the forthcoming sports-focused camera that shows what its 30 frames per second capture looks like.
As part of ongoing testing of the Canon EOS R3 at the Olympics, photographer Jeff Cable has uploaded many photos that he has taken with the camera and EXIF data remained. As a result, the resolution of the new camera has been revealed: 24-megapixels.
After two development announcements from Canon for the R3 and one from Nikon for the Z9 early in 2021, many expected to see both cameras make a splash at the Olympics in Japan this summer. If two recent reports are correct, however, neither camera will be officially announced until this fall.

The NiSi 15mm f/4 lens was announced in early January and photographer Ted Forbes got his hands on one to see how the company's first lens performed. In short, it's a promising start for the company that is new to lens design, but it has a few niggling issues to keep in mind even at its low price.
Venus Optics is continuing to add support for more mounts and today the 11mm f/4.5 FF RL (full-frame rectilinear) lens is available for Canon RF mount and the Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra-Macro APO is available for Nikon Z mount.

After testing the RF mount 50mm f/1.8, Photographer Alex Barrera didn't think it had the "pop" that other Canon RF lenses had shown. To see if it was just in his head, he decided to pit it directly against that lens's predecessor: the EF 50mm f/1.8.
A new patent filed by Canon Japan shows multiple optical formulas for an RF 50mm f/1.4 and f/1.8 design as well as a new RF 35mm f/1.4. The patents deal with increasing focusing speed when using lenses with large diameter elements.
