Nikon's most recent lens roadmap reveals it is working on a new power zoom optic as well as hints at a budget "holy trinity" f/2.8 zoom series.
OM Digital has announced two IP53 water and dust resistant lenses to accompany the same level of protection found in the new OM-1 camera: the M.Zuiko ED 12-40mm f/2.8 Pro II and 40-150mm f/4 Pro.
Let's take a look at some of the data with regard to the latest trends in camera gear buying, trading, and selling. Specifically, we'll take a look at what lenses hold on to their value better: primes or zooms.
Ken Rockwell has announced that he has patented a software addition that would leverage the ability for full-frame cameras to shoot in crop modes and automatically apply that feature when a lens is zoomed for extra optical throw in situations like bird photography.
Photographer and YouTuber Matt Granger has put together a lens shootout that'll be really valuable for anybody who is new to Canon's full-frame mirrorless cameras. In this video, he compares the image quality of the four main RF-mount zoom lenses: the 28-70mm f/2, the 24-70mm f/2.8, the 24-105mm f/4, and the 24-240mm f/4-6.3.
Panasonic has added two much-anticipated lenses to its "S Pro" lineup of L-Mount lenses for the full-frame mirrorless Lumix S1, S1R and S1H cameras: The Lumix S Pro 70-200mm f/2.8 O.I.S. and the Lumix S Pro 16-35mm f/4.
I’ll begin by saying that I don’t only shoot with zoom lenses. I should also add that what I’m about to say is perhaps most relevant to other wedding photographers, particularly those shooting in a documentary style like myself.
The question of zoom lenses versus prime lenses is an endless debate in photography, and one that has never really been definitively resolved. Essentially, the whole thing boils down to what’s more important: image quality, or versatility.
I'm going to preface this by saying that this isn't a lens review article, there are many photographers better suited for this topic, so if you're after refraction index comparisons and chromatic aberration charts this article probably isn't for you.
Phase One took the lid off of a first for the company earlier today. In partnership with Schneider Kreuznach, they've released the very first 'Blue Ring' zoom lenses: a 40-80mm LS f/4.0-5.6 and 75-150mm LS f/4.0-5.6 that promise prime lens quality.
Three days ago, Hasselblad said that developing appropriately compact zoom lenses for the X1D would be "almost impossible theoretically." Well, now they're taking it back. CEO Perry Oosting is issuing a correction: there will be zoom lenses.
