Mirrorless Camera News

Most photographers have experienced the trauma of being on a daylong shoot, draining the camera's battery, and discovering that their spare is sitting on a charger at home. There’s not much you can do about that, unless you check out the video below.

Yesterday we provided an important warning about the finite lifespan of your camera and why  it's essential that you check shutter count regularly to anticipate costly repairs, missed shots on location, or even a total breakdown. We're following up on that today with a couple less-dire maintenance hacks from pro Andy Rouse.

If you’re going to test a new camera, I can think of few places better suited than the Big Island of Hawaii. And that’s precisely what I, and a number of my colleagues in the photo press, had a chance to do recently with the new 28-megapixel Samsung NX500 camera. We put Samsung’s newest mirrorless compact system camera (CSC) through its paces in diverse settings on the island, each designed to challenge the NX500 and ourselves.

Attaining precise focus is essential for all types of images and it can be difficult to achieve, particularly when shooting moving subjects or scenes where you want maximum sharpness from foreground to background.

We’ve said this before and we’ll probably repeat it in the future: The notion that “you’re not a real photographer unless you shoot in Manual mode” is simply absurd. And there’s vast array of stunning imagery captured by acclaimed professional photographers that easily prove the point.

Want a pro-level mirrorless camera but don’t want to pay an arm and a leg for it? Have we got a deal for you! A few online retailers are offering a massive price drop on the Fuji X-Pro1 when purchased with XF lens set-ups.

Along with introducing a new flagship mirrorless camera tonight, Fujifilm announced several new additions to the company’s X-Series line of fixed and mirrorless cameras, and lenses, including: the Fujfilm X-E2S, Fujifilm X70 and Fujinon XF100-400mmF4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR. Fujifilm also introduced the new rugged and waterproof FinePix XP90.
