Mirrorless Camera News

If you’ve ever been curious how a state-of-the-art camera is made, check out the below video, which shows the step-by-step manufacturing process for Fujifilm X-T10 mirrorless cameras.

Exposure bracketing is a powerful technique that enables you to achieve a perfect exposure when shooting in difficult light, like complicated outdoor scenes with a wide range of tones from bright highlights to deep shadows. Today's comprehensive beginners guide comes to us from The School of Photography (TSoP)—an amazing source of online courses and a leading provider of education to schools and colleges in the UK.

Most photographers have experienced the trauma of being on a daylong shoot, draining the camera's battery, and discovering that their spare is sitting on a charger at home. There’s not much you can do about that, unless you check out the video below.

Yesterday we provided an important warning about the finite lifespan of your camera and why  it's essential that you check shutter count regularly to anticipate costly repairs, missed shots on location, or even a total breakdown. We're following up on that today with a couple less-dire maintenance hacks from pro Andy Rouse.

If you’re going to test a new camera, I can think of few places better suited than the Big Island of Hawaii. And that’s precisely what I, and a number of my colleagues in the photo press, had a chance to do recently with the new 28-megapixel Samsung NX500 camera. We put Samsung’s newest mirrorless compact system camera (CSC) through its paces in diverse settings on the island, each designed to challenge the NX500 and ourselves.

Attaining precise focus is essential for all types of images and it can be difficult to achieve, particularly when shooting moving subjects or scenes where you want maximum sharpness from foreground to background.

We’ve said this before and we’ll probably repeat it in the future: The notion that “you’re not a real photographer unless you shoot in Manual mode” is simply absurd. And there’s vast array of stunning imagery captured by acclaimed professional photographers that easily prove the point.
