Canon 6D Mark II

More rumors about a replacement for the Canon 6D are kicking around. Canon Rumors says we should expect a Canon 6D Mark II in the first half of 2017 (and not in 2016).

While we don’t have any reliable info on specs, CR also says it has word that we’ll get a DSLR with a “new nameplate” in the EOS lineup in 2017.

Will the mythical EOS 3D finally arrive? Something on the consumer side?

RAW Photos Coming to iPhone in iOS 10

iPhone 6

It looks like Apple will finally give us the opportunity to shoot and edit RAW images in the native camera app in the next iteration of iOS, due out later this year. Many Android users have had this benefit for quite some time, so it’s nice to see Apple finally getting around to giving photographers more freedom with their iPhones.

Developers will also be able to make more use of image data as Apple opens up access to the RAW file data and live photos for use in third-party apps. Be careful with the RAW photo setting though because it will chew through your storage with the larger file sizes much quicker than shooting the JPEG images we capture now.

iOS 10 will be available in public beta later this summer with a final release coming later this year.
