The specifications of the Fujifilm X-T5 are extraordinarily similar to those of their X-H2. Pretending the price is the same (it isn’t) and you could have one or the other—but only one—which do you choose?

You’ve no doubt heard us use the term “dynamic range” in camera reviews, image-editing tutorials, and discussions about the advantage of shooting Raw. But what does this term really mean, and how does it affect your photos?

New camera lovers, today was your lucky day. Two major new mirrorless models made their debuts this morning. First, OM Digital Solutions, the company formerly known as Olympus, launched the 20MP OM-5. Then, just a few hours later, Sony introduced the 61MP Sony A7R V.

One reason mirrorless digital cameras are so popular is that with an appropriate adapter you can use just about all of the great vintage glass that’s lurking in the back of your photo cabinet.
