Mirrorless Camera News

There are a variety of new things under the Sony A7R III’s hood, including the ability to shoot 10 frames per second (fps) continuous bursts of images at full resolution, 4K video recording across the width of its full-frame sensor, longer battery life, and a host of other features.

Achieving a correct exposure is the first step toward capturing a great image, and on Monday we explained how to do that by bracketing your shots. In today’s tutorial, you’ll learn another way to get things right, by using your camera’s histogram.

Here’s a moral dilemma for you: Let’s say you finally scraped together $3,200 to pre-order your dream camera, the Sony A7R III. And when you eagerly ripped open the package after an agonizing 40-day wait, lo and behold, there were TWO Sony 43.4MP mirrorless wonders inside? 

Virtually all modern digital cameras enable you to achieve accurate color rendition by changing a simple White Balance setting to match the color temperature of the light in a scene. Unfortunately, many photographers leave their camera set to “Auto White Balance,” thereby capturing photos with unsightly color casts.

One of the more interesting Kickstarter projects we saw at Photokina last fall was the versatile MIOPS Mobile Remote, enabling users to control DSLR and mirrorless cameras via Bluetooth with a robust smartphone app. 

Check out our video on the full frame, mirrorless camera that stole the show at PhotoPlus Expo.

Sony was back at it this morning, unveiling the A7R III, a 42.4MP full frame mirrorless camera with the ability to shoot 10 frames per second continuous bursts at full resolution with a faster, revamped autofocus system.
