    Sony A7R V sensor review online at DXOMARK

    June 6, 2023 /

    My write-up of the sensor performance of the Sony A7R V is online at DXOMARK. The sensor is similar in performance to the 45.7 MP BSI sensors, but with a small increase in resolution (pixel count) this is an improvement all things considered. Resolution isn’t measured, for that, you would need to look at a lens review to get some idea.

    Leica Q3 announced: 60MP BSI CMOS sensor and Tilting Screen

    May 25, 2023 /

    The Leica Q3 has been announced with a similar (but not identical) 60MP BSI CMOS sensor as the Leica M11 (and Sony A7 IV and V). The new model also features a fold-out LCD which is the first significant departure in design for the Q. The price is £5,300 inc VAT. The new Leica Q3 features the triple-resolution feature (pixel binning from the native 60MP, giving a choice of 18MP and 36MP options) seen in the Leica M11. Leica says RAW files are around 70 MB depending on the ISO/content, which appears to be lossless compressed RAW (DNG). In any case, there’s no option for uncompressed RAW. Presumably, it’s the…

    Billingham 307 camera bag review

    March 6, 2022 /

    This was one of the most popular reviews from the old site and so I’ve decided to re-publish it here with up-to-date links for those trying to buy – thank you for your continued support.  Introduction to the Billingham 307 Billingham camera bags need little introduction, they’ve been the choice of professional photographers since the mid-’70s and the Billingham 307 typifies all that’s great about them. There have been one or two imitators, most notably the well-regarded Classic range from the sadly defunct CCS (Camera Care Systems) and the hand-made range of bags from FOGG; probably the closest in terms of quality and materials, if not in design (FOGG were…

    Leica M11 review

    March 3, 2022 /

    Leica M11 – what came before? The Leica M11 is the successor to the Leica M10, indeed to the uninitiated it looks practically identical. This is just as well as the Leica M10 was in effect a refinement of the Leica M (Typ 240), particularly with the larger, more durable rangefinder, more logical button layout, and improved menu operation. However, while there were some slight gains in noise and DR the M10 sensor’s similar pixel count likely hindered sales. Still, it wasn’t until the introduction of the M10-R some 18 months or so ago that we saw the real successor to the Leica M (Typ 240) models. As good as…

    Canon adds heavy-hitting RF 800mm F5.6 and 1200mm F8 super-telephoto lenses to range

    February 25, 2022 /

    Canon has added the RF 800mm F5.6 and RF 1200mm F8 to their mirrorless EOS R series cameras using the RF mount. This is presumably due to Canon experiencing a little pressure from Sony, as they’ve recently started targeting sports and action photographers with high speed telephotos to go with the Sony A9 and A1 cameras. Even Nikon have announced an interesting alternative with their PF 800mm F6.3, which appears to be targeting birders but no doubt, due to the smaller sizer and lower weight, but will also appeal to sports photographers. It’s a prudent move from Canon, however these two new lenses aren’t quite what they appear to be.…

    Park Cameras special price on super-compact Gitzo Systematic series 4, 5-section tripod at just £699

    February 3, 2022 /

    Park Cameras have a special price on the super-compact Gitzo Systematic series 4, 5-section tripod (GT4553S) at just £699. See here for more details. It’s normally £1024 (inc VAT), if you click through the Gitzo advert, shown on the left. It has a lowish 1.36m (about 4ft) maximum height but the plus side is better usage at or close to minimum height than the standard 3 or 4 leg section variants, plus great portability of course. So it’s great if you work with sports or wildlife and also good for interiors and architecture, which is more my thing. In fact, I’m considering buying one myself, instead of an RRS TVC-24 Mark…

    Leica M11 announced: Leica’s best and most-rounded M to date

    January 13, 2022 /

    Leica has announced the latest update to its rangefinder camera, the M11. After numerous leaks online the Leica M11 is now official. Rather than go over what’s been leaked already, after speaking with Leica today at the press launch, I’m going to outline what I’ve learned. The price is confirmed as £7,500 body only, £600 for the new Visoflex 2. Both inclusive of VAT.

    Videos surface of the new Leica M11

    January 5, 2022 /

    Two new videos have surfaced showing some of the design elements on the forthcoming Leica M11. The rear screen is not flush, as I had hoped for but on the plus side the new battery looks large, which bodes well for capacity. Also shown is the rumoured new Visoflex. It is rather boxy looking but it is hinged for overhead viewing and it has built-in dioptric control. At present there are no details on the spec’s but the inferred low-light capabilities are encouraging.

    Thoughts on the up-coming Leica M11 – Updated

    December 6, 2021 /

    Update, January 7th: two new videos feature the new Leica M11 have leaked, see here for more details.   Nokishita Camera, the principal source of most camera leaks on the net today, published the first picture of the Leica M11 (shown above) last week, allegedly ’taken’ from Leica’s Japan-based site. As it has shown up there it’s genuine, and coming soon. Although the press get advanced warning of cameras I’ve not heard anything officially (or unofficially, either), so this is just what I would like to see featured.  It’s been long rumoured that the M11 will differ greatly from the M10, however as the leaked photo reveals there’s only some slight differences…
