Meike has announced a new 35mm f/0.95 large aperture lens for six different camera mounts: five APS-C and Micro Four Thirds. While fully manual, it boasts solid image quality and a relatively affordable price.
Scientists at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have developed a super-fast camera that is capable of recording footage of the electrical impulses that travel through nerve cells.
For years now, industrial super-fast lenses have been on the back of my mind. But one thing always held me back, and that was the fact that most images I could find were frankly uninspiring, boring, fuzzy macro shots at best. So I couldn’t justify spending hundreds of dollars on unpractical medical equipment.
Samsung has just unveiled the latest and greatest in NVMe SSD technology with the release of the 980 PRO: the company's first PCIe 4.0 solid state drive that's "designed for professionals and consumers who want cutting-edge performance in their high-end PCs, workstations and game consoles."
The folks over at YouTube channel Media Division recently put together an incredibly comprehensive test of the fastest camera lenses on the market. In this video, they cover everything from the legendary Zeiss R-Biotar 100mm f/0.73 X-Ray lens, to some of the more "practical" options with maximum apertures under f/1.
It's been an exciting day for Micro Four Thirds shooters. Not only have budget brands Yongnuo and Venus Optics officially joined the standard, but Cosina Japan has unveiled the Micro Four Thirds mount Voigtlander Nokton 60mm f/0.95.
Photographer Felix Jäger recently got to review a lens that many Micro Four Thirds shooters have on their wishlist: the Voigtländer 42.5mm f/0.95. But while that mouth-watering aperture number might set your heart to racing, don't whip out your wallet just yet.
The progression that is the discovery and appreciation of photography is a journey unique to the voyager. Whether the path is walked through a textbook, an online forum, or alone, there is no two that are alike.
Hot on the heels of Sony's "world's fastest SD card" announcement, the SD Card Association has announced a new, much faster standard for SD and microSD memory cards: UHS-III.
SD cards still can't approach the kind of speeds CFast 2.0 and XQD cards boast, but that's not stopping Sony from upping their SD game in a big way. Earlier today, Sony officially announced the "world's fastest SD cards," their new SF-G series.
The new flagship Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II is a speed demon, plain and simple. With your autofocus locked, its electronic shutter can shoot 60fps. And even if you keep autofocus on and tracking, it can still pump out full-res RAW frames at a jaw-dropping 18fps.
News broke back in February that Russian camera manufacturer Zenit was going to come back and take on Leica in the luxury camera market. But the first Zenit products to see the light of day aren't cameras, it's three very fast KMZ/Zenit lenses: the Zenitar 50mm f/0.95, 50mm f/1.2, and 85mm f/1.2.
The Canon 7D Mark II is an enigma. One day we're hearing about how its weather sealing is second to none, the next about how the sensor's performance at base and low ISO is on par with Nikon... 5 years ago, and now we swing back to the other side of the spectrum with this impressive demonstration of the camera's lightning quick AF system.
As medium format and full-frame cameras get more affordable and file sizes cross the line from massive to outrageous, any increase in transfer and backup speeds is greatly appreciated. Which is why the new USB Type C standard should have photographers as excited as any other tech nerd out there.
While it's not often a patent filing for new lenses can make your jaw drop, it's certainly not out of the question, as Olympus is demonstrating with two particular pieces of glass in their latest patent filings published February 20th.
The much-rumored Sony a6000 -- the camera that is replacing both the NEX-6 and NEX-7 -- has finally arrived, and it might just steal your heart with its insanely speedy performance and other impressive specs.
