  • Full Frame comparison

    Gizmodo, the gadget blog, sometimes has a few interesting posts about digital photography. Today, this is the case with their “Canon 5D Mark II vs. Nikon D700 Review Shoot-Out” which turned out to face the two digital cameras in real-life conditions of night photo (of course, they wanted to compare high-ISO pictures and noise).

  • Canon EOS 500D will be late

    According to Northlight Images, the EOS 500D is now set to launch only in August 2009. It may be linked to the current worldwide economic situation, but it would allow the designers to include a 15MP sensor (“later is better”).

  • Canon noise: Canon EOS 500D in June

    According to Canon Rumors (but with a low certainty level): The Canon EOS 500D would be launched June 23, A 30mm f/2 lens with an EF-S mount would be presented on the same day.

  • Ritz Camera stores going down

    Ritz Camera, the largest US retail photography chain, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. It’s not the first one, but the size of it is impressive: 800 photo stores in 40 states, operating as Ritz Camera, Wolf Camera, Kits Cameras, Inkley’s and The Camera Shops going MIA… Nikon and Canon are clearly at the…

    I recommend reading a nice little post titled “All lens tests are wrong” that concludes that the only good test for a lens is to use it during a full year. Not wrong, but I still recommend to also check my list of web sites with photo lens reviews.

  • Canon, Sony, no SLR

    Today, Canon as well as Sony did announce several new products for this beginning of a recession year (plenty of point-and-shoot cameras). Of course, this is the preparation of the next PMA fair in Las Vegas. But SLR enthusiasts will stay waiting for more. No new SLR body. Only Tilt-Shift lenses in Full Frame ability…

  • Canon news on the 18th

    Limited information: Canon will hold a press conference on February, 18th to present the news of this first quarter of 2009. But they declined to tell what this will contain. To be remembered: More and more people are saying that Sony will have no digital SLR news in March at the Las Vegas PMA fair……

  • Compare all rumours

    Using Google Trends, I tried to see the impact of what I thought were the most notable rumours in preparation of the next PMA fair in March. Was I in for a surprise! Pentax does not even score on the graph for the Pentax K30D… Visibly, the Nikon D400 is considered more worth of rumours…
