Mirrorless Camera News

It’s Thanksgiving week which means photo manufacturers have, as usual, jumped the gun by offering early Black Friday deals. First up is Sony, which is offering instant savings on several of its best-selling photo products including three popular mirrorless cameras and a lens.

In this two-part story we first looked at the conversion of a digital camera to shoot color IR photos. Link to that story is here. Here in Part 2 we go out into the field with my converted Fujifilm X-Pro1 and explore everything you need to know to get great results when shooting and processing infrared images.

Leica just announced the SL2, a 47.3-megapixel mirrorless full-frame system camera, which is the successor model to the esteemed Leica SL (reviewed here), and Shutterbug was invited to take a preproduction model for an early spin. Let’s take a look at the Leica SL2's long list of new features before we recap some of our thoughts and impressions about this new Leica model in this first look review.

It's still quite a few weeks until Black Friday but the photo industry just saw the first major camera deal go into effect. The Sony A7 III, which is one of the most popular cameras out there right now, just saw a $200 price drop on Amazon, Adorama and other retail sites.

This image by photographer Adrian Borda will probably make you do a double take. At first, it may make you think of an ancient Egyptian tomb where, perhaps, King Tut was buried, with shards of light filtering in through precisely filigreed cracks in the ceiling.

Olympus just unveiled the compact new Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III mirrorless camera, which the company says borrows much of its imaging technology from the professional level E-M1 Mark II, one of our favorite cameras of 2017.

Sony's speed demon is back for round two and this time it's added some significant professional features. Sony just unveiled the Sony A9 II, which is the follow-up to the A9 from 2017, and is designed to capture fast action sports thanks to its ability to shoot nearly silent 20 frames per second (fps) bursts with a vibration-free and blackout-free electronic shutter.
