Mirrorless Camera News

The long-anticipated Fujifilm X-T3 mirrorless camera has arrived, with a host of powerful features and upgrades for shooting both still photos and video. Billed as the fourth generation of Fujifilm’s popular X-Series line, the camera is built around the company’s latest technologies for superior image quality, enhanced autofocus speed, and black-out-free burst shooting.

Canon joined the full frame mirrorless camera market by introducing the new 30.3MP Canon EOS R last night and today we had our first chance to take it for a ride. Shutterbug is one of a select group of U.S. media to attend a special Canon R launch event in Hawaii and we spent the afternoon shooting with a full production Canon R and the RF 24-105mm F4 L IS USM “kit” lens at set-ups with models in Maui.

Canon jumped into the full frame mirrorless camera market in a big way tonight. Shutterbug is currently in Hawaii for a special Canon press event where the company announced the new Canon R full frame mirrorless camera.

We just returned from Japan where Shutterbug was one of a handful of media outlets from the U.S. to attend a press conference announcing the new Nikon Z-series full frame mirrorless camera system. The system, which so far includes the Z 7 and Z 6 mirrorless cameras and a trio of Nikkor Z lenses, is a new addition to Nikon’s imaging product line and, thus, includes a new production process.

Yesterday we shared seven full resolution test shots we captured with the new Nikon Z 7 full frame mirrorless camera after it was launched in Tokyo, Japan. And now, here are 10 more shots, this time captured by photographer and journalist Theano Nikitas with a Nikon Z 7 at a press event in New York City today.

On the heels of the big announcement of its new Z cameras, Nikon introduced a trio of new lenses designed specifically for those full frame mirrorless models. The three new lenses use the new larger-diameter mount of the 45.7MP Z 7 and 24.5MP Z 6, which is designed to let more light in for improved edge-to-edge sharpness and better image quality compared to some competing mirrorless camera systems using smaller mounts.
