I use the GoPro Hero cameras all the time for my video productions, but not for action. I like the tiny Hero’s for moving car shots, street walking, and just general situations where a little camera can be placed in out-of-the-way places to pick up my shot.
GoPro recently announced the new Hero 10 Black camera that boasts better photo resolution and up to 5.3K video. But that increased resolution means more heat, and GoPro admits that without sufficient airflow, it can overheat.
GoPro has officially announced the Hero10 Black featuring a larger 23-megapixel photo resolution and a better processor that allows for 5.3K video at up 60 frames per second and 4K video at up to 120 frames per second.
Images and purported specifications of GoPro's new flagship device have leaked and while the design of the camera doesn't look different from the Hero 9, the report alleges a boost in performance.
Canon has designed a system that makes it easier and more reliable to capture high-dynamic-range (HDR) photos by better pairing an in-body image stabilization (IBIS) with shake detection algorithms that actively correct for changes in a scene at the point of capture.
Canon has applied for a patent that would use an in-camera algorithm in tandem with the camera's image stabilization system to intelligently determine the difference between blur caused by motion and blur caused by a moving subject, and correct it.
Following a rumor that the iPhone 13 would possibly feature sensor stabilization in some capacity on all of its models, a new report alleges that looks more and more likely as it appears Apple will be purchasing the necessary parts for the feature in large quantities in the next two months.
Vivo is positioning its X60 series as “professional photography flagship smartphones,” making clear that it wants to be regarded as the best mobile shooter available. With its partnership with Zeiss, it might have the tools to actually meet that goal.
Vivo has officially announced that its X60 series of flagship smartphones that it developed in collaboration with Zeiss is now available across major international markets. The X60, X60 Pro, and X60 Pro+ are the inaugural devices in the Zeiss x Vivo partnership.
Given all of the overheating controversy and the intense focus on the camera's 8K and 4K video capabilities, you'd be forgiven for forgetting that the Canon EOS R5 is also a stills camera. But Gordon Laing at Cameralabs didn't forget, and he's reviewed this camera specifically for stills photographers.
Most photographers know the basics of lens-based image stabilization (Lens IS) and in-body image stabilization (IBIS), but if you've ever wanted a technical deep-dive that explains exactly how these systems work to generate 4, 5, or even 7 stops of stabilization, this video from Imaging Resource is here to answer that call.
Dave Pardue over at Imaging Resource has just finished filming a crop-sensor IBIS shootout that you definitely want to check out. Using a specially-built four-camera "rig", he shot the Panasonic GH5, Fuji X-T4, Olympus E-M1 III, and Sony a6600 side-by-side (by-side-by-side) so you can see exactly how the stabilization in each camera compares.
Earlier today, in a move that is either unexpected or a long time coming, camera accessory maker Manfrotto quietly launched two handheld 3-axis camera gimbals that will compete directly with products like the DJI Ronin, Zhyiun Crane, and the Gudsen Moza gimbals already well-established on the market.
After teasing the tech in an ad earlier this week, smartphone maker Vivo has finally revealed details about the "micro-cloud gimbal" stabilization that will be built into the camera on the upcoming X50 Pro. Based on the demos, it looks to be quite a breakthrough.
How does Lens IS compare to using IBIS? And how do either of these compare to stabilization in post? These are the questions that Eric Stemen wanted to answer in his latest side-by-side comparison, which highlights the benefits and limitations of each stabilization method when shooting video handheld.
Olympus has officially unveiled the OM-D E-M1 Mark III: a lightweight and compact Micro Four Thirds camera that packs a 20MP sensor, new image processing tricks, and "the world's best image stabilization" that combines in-body and in-lens technology for up to 7.5 stops of compensation.
Techart has pulled off something pretty cool with its latest lens adapter. The so-called "Canon EF to Nikon Z Autofocus Adapter" (TZC-01) lets you use Canon EF glass on Nikon's mirrorless Z-Series cameras without sacrificing autofocus, auto exposure, aperture control, or lens stabilization.
A fresh patent uncovered by Canon News reveals that Canon has been working hard to perfect an implementation of IBIS + Lens Stabilization, something we'll hopefully see in a future version of the EOS R.
Insta630 just announced its smallest, most convenient camera yet... and it might just be the first "life-logging" action camera to break into the mainstream. It's called the Insta360 GO, and it's a teeny 18.3g action cam that the brand has dubbed "the world's smallest stabilized camera."
The best smartphone for photography—at least according to many reviewers—is suffering from a significant camera defect. Over the past few months, a large number of Google Pixel 3 owners have taken to the forums to report and document a "Camera Shaking" issue that is plaguing their smartphones.
We've known for several months now that Canon was working on IBIS for its full-frame mirrorless EOS-R system, but a recent patent and a new rumor indicates that this tech might make its way into Canon's DSLRs as well... and soon.
In addition to a new, lightweight 50mm lens for its medium format cameras, Fujifilm also announced a versatile new zoom lens for its X-Series mirrorless cameras. The new XF 16-80mm f/4 R OIS WR is a stabilized zoom lens that is well suited for a wide range of styles and genres.
It seems the folks at DJI are preparing to release a new, even lighter weight Ronin gimbal for mirrorless cameras. Shown off on a new teaser page, as well as a blueprint video posted to the brand's Twitter, the new gimbal looks to be a lighter, more compact version of the current Ronin-S.
