The Best Places to Buy Used Cameras and Lenses in 2022
January 11, 2022

Image Sensors: The Main Battleground of the Camera Industry
January 11, 2022
Manufacturing silicon is patently not required in order to make cameras — anyone can put together a pinhole model — however, the wider point is more pertinent. To be a competitive, global, manufacturer, do you need to make the sensors that actually go into camera bodies?
Photographer Jeffrey A. Wolin’s Faces of Homelessness is a photo/text series that focuses on people who are homeless or have been homeless in the past.

With an implosion of shipments caused by COVID in 2020, the expectation was that 2021 would see a rebound… until COVID hit again. So how have camera manufacturers fared in what has become another traumatic business year?
The implosion of the camera industry is no…
Fujifilm released a new Fujicolor 200 film in December, but astute film fans noticed something unusual about the curves diagram in its datasheet: namely that it looked awfully familiar to Kodak Gold 200.
The Fujifilm Fujicolor 200 that was originally launched in…
In all my years in photography, I don’t think any camera has had as much buzz leading up to its release as the Nikon Z9. There were many reasons for that, both good and bad, but now that the camera’s here, does it live up to the hype? After one week of using it, I think so.
