Much has been made of the tiny new Sigma fp, officially the world's smallest full-frame mirrorless camera as of this writing. But just how small is this thing compared to the competition from Sony, Nikon, Canon and fellow L-Mount Alliance member Panasonic?
Fujifilm made a splash in the camera industry today by unveiling the GFX100, the world's first 102-megapixel mirrorless camera. And here's what's crazy: Fujifilm managed to stuff a medium format sensor into a camera body that's the same size as Canon's and Nikon's flagship DSLRs.
The Sony a7 III, Nikon Z7, and Canon EOS R are three of the main cameras battling it out in the full-frame mirrorless camera wars. In case you're wondering how the three cameras compare in size with one another, the Dutch camera store Foto Hans Keuzekamp has shot a set of photos showing them side-by-side.
We all know mirrorless cameras are smaller and more portable, but when it comes to medium format, what does "portable" really mean? This photo of the mirrorless Fuji GFX 50s next to Pentax's 645z gives you an idea.
Without a frame of reference, it's impossible to conceptualize how massive the world's largest oil tanker, the world's deepest mine, or a B-2 bomber's wingspan really are. That's where these composite photos by Kevin Wisbeth come into play.
What's the difference between a 60-inch octabox, a 38-inch octabox, and an 18-inch octabox? Besides the obvious—size and portability—they actually create a noticeably different quality of light. How different? This short comparison video shows you.
The groundbreaking mirrorless medium format Hasselblad X1D looks ultra-portable in the product photos provided by Hassy, but how small is it really? We used the Camera Size tool to put it up against some of its competition.
You've probably seen countless photos by now of astronauts working inside and outside the International Space Station, but sometimes it's hard to get a sense of scale when the photos don't show much of the station. If you'd like an idea of just how big the station is, check out this photo of American astronaut Kjell Lindgren working on it.
If you love food, colors, and neatly organized things, you're going to love these photographs by Seattle-based photographer Brittany Wright. Her images often feature a large number of fruits, vegetables, and foods that are carefully arranged according to color and/or size.

Here's a cool holiday chart that only us photo types will appreciate. It was put together by Sigma Jack and Sigma's in-house 'design wiz' Emi Erata, and shows the entire Sigma lens lineup arranged by size and placed next to some to-scale objects so you can visualize just how large some of these behemoths are.
Fujifilm's upcoming "entry-level" X-M1 X Series mirrorless camera was outed today after photographs of the camera were leaked onto the Web. We now know what the camera will look like, but many of the camera's specs and features are still unknown. The size and weight of the camera haven't been revealed yet, but it's actually possible to determine the relative size of the camera to other X Series mirrorless cameras using just the leaked photos.
Reno, Nevada-based photographer Art Domagala was recently involved with an interesting photo shoot in which size and scale played a bit part. He was tasked with photographing bridge inspectors working on the Hoover Dam Bypass Bridge, officially known as the Mike O'Callaghan–Pat Tillman Memorial Bridge.
Standing 840 feet (260 meters) above the Colorado River, the $114 million bridge is the second-highest in the United States. Domagala's photographs capture the sheer size by showing how small the workers are in comparison.

One of the biggest photo stories at the moment is the fact that Sony is planning to stuff a full frame sensor inside an upcoming compact camera called the RX1. While the $2799 price tag likely puts it out of the reach of many photo enthusiasts, the fact that full frame sensors are starting to appear in fixed-lens compact cameras by a company other than Leica is pretty exciting.
What's amazing about the RX1 is how small it is. Sony somehow managed to stuff a huge full frame sensor inside a camera body that's roughly the size of the Panasonic GX1, which packs a much smaller Micro Four Thirds sensor.
