Japanese optics manufacturer Sigma this week expanded its Art-series lens lineup with a lens that's only its second all-new zoom in the Art series, the Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN Art. Expected to ship in the US market from mid-November at an as-yet undisclosed price, the full-frame 24-70mm F2.8 will be offered...

First of all, we have...

We've referred to really large roundups like this as being "mega" in the...

A couple of weeks ago, I published my first field test for the Canon EOS M6 Mark II. (Not already read it? I highly recommend starting there for a discussion of ergonomics and handling, lens selection, customizability and daytime image quality.) And...

 

 

After a few weeks in a row of smaller roundups, our regular Firmware Friday series returns with a rather larger article this week, bringing news from no less than five manufacturers -- Blackmagic, Canon, Leica, Ricoh and Sigma. In all, seven different cameras have received updates (or the promise of future updates)...

 

 

We are experiencing an imaging revolution: more photographs are being made and shared than ever before, and users and the publishing world are rapidly adopting new quality standards in both photography and video.
