Digital Camera News, Reviews and Tips
At CES 2014, Fuji announced a black version of the popular X100s camera, which won’t be a part of a limited edition run as was the case with the X100. Accordingly, the black X100s pricing will remain the same as the original silver X100s. [Read more…]

New rumors suggest that Nikon may be announcing the development of the Nikon D4 successor as early as this week at CES 2014.
Nikon is expected to announce the D3300 and and 35mm f/1.8G full frame lens tomorrow at CES, but the D4 successor could be a bonus that we hear about this week. [Read more…]
Recent rumors suggest the previously leaked Nikon D3300, along with new Nikkor 35mm f/1.8G FX and 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G DX lenses are due at CES 2014 on January 7.
Along with the D3300 and new lenses, we should also expect some new point and shoot cameras from Nikon.
Rumored specs of the new lenses are as follows: [Read more…]
The Olympus OM-D E-M10 name leaked out through an Indonesian government registration. The E-M10 is rumored to replace the OM-D E-M5 and features the same sensor as the E-M5 and the same imaging processor that’s found in the newer OM-D E-M1, along with other improvements. [Read more…]
A Sony ILCE-5000 camera has been registered on the Taiwan National Communication Commission website, which likely points to the upcoming release of the camera. CES 2014 would be a good time frame to see it show up.
The Sony A3000, A7 and A7R all carry the “ILCE” moniker in their technical product number. While we all refer to the cameras with an “A” prefix, they are technically the Alpha 3000, Alpha 7 and Alpha 7R – or more precisely (using the symbol) ?3000, ?7, and ?7R. It would be logical then that the ILCE-5000 follows the new “Alpha” branding (“NEX” is dead) and carries the product name ?5000 when it officially arrives. [Read more…]
Canon may step up the 50x optical zoom of the PowerShot SX50 HS with a 100x optical zoom sooner or later. The current SX50 offers an equivalent field of view of 24-1200mm.
However, a recently published patent application from Canon shows that Canon has developed an optical formula that would provide a superzoom camera using the same sensor size with a reach of an equivalent field of view of 20-2000mm on a full frame camera. That works out to a 3.6-340mm actual focal length for the 1/2.3″ sensor size. [Read more…]
Nikon AF-S 35mm f/1.8G DX Lens
New rumors suggest that Nikon will announce a 35mm f/1.8 lens for FX format cameras for CES 2014. This lens would serve as a complement to the 35mm f/1.8G DX lens (pictured above) and sit under the higher-end 35mm f/1.4G FX lens. It also may mark the end of the old 35mm f/2D, but I doubt the price stays around the $360 mark of the 35mm f/2.
