Canon EOS 5D MarkIII in a fictional advertising

Rumor. A Japanese blog published this Canon EOS 5D MarkIII promotional video.
The new 5D MIII will have a 28.1 MP CMOS sensor, a DIGIC 5 processor, continuous shooting at 8.2 fps, 45 cross-type AF points, an ISO 50-12800 and it will come this fall (September, Photokina?…).
Unfortunately it is a fictional advertising made for a school project.

Canon 5D MII or i-Phone as prime camera?


The best is the the one you have.
While some rumors talk about a mysterious Canon 3D, I was attracted by an article of Amateurphotographer. It is reported that, in Afghanistan, war photographers use i-Phone more often than cameras.
Not only in Afghanistan, but all over in the world, the best camera is the one you have with you, therefore, almost always the prime camera is the mobile phone.
Interesting to see that most of the photos on Flickr are from mobile phones.
As reported on Geek: the leader is i-Phone, followed by Nikon D90, third Canon 5D MII, fourth Canon EOS 450D/R XSi and fifth Canon EOS 500D/RT1i.
Everyone, even the most experienced photographers take photos with their phone, it’s more practical, and always at hand.
That’s why also the most professional market is so interested in finding solutions increasingly small and compact.

Breaking News: Laser damages DSRL Cameras

It’s true, laser beams, like those of the sun, could damage DSRL Cameras, but, as always, we have to use common sense.
It’s not a surprise that you cannot point more then a while the camera to direct sun as you cannot do it with your eyes, this could produce irreversible damage to your eyesight.
The same concept can be applied to DSRL cameras and extended to laser beams. They could heat up the camera’s sensor.
Therefore, It’s reasonable to take precautions not to let laser beam enter directly in your camera lens and this should be done with “any” Camera.
With proper care (eye safety is first), it doesn’t mean that you can’t photograph the sun or laser beams, and fortunately, there is no need to preserve your Camera in a bunker!

An article about this: “Laser effects on cameras and camcorders“.

First rule: enjoy your Camera!

Macaque steals 5D Mark II and becomes a photographer

Incredible but true!
It has happened in an Indonesian national park.
A macaque grabbed a camera equipment of David J. Slater and captivated by the reflection in the lens, started snapping himself.
Slate had a Canon 5D Mark II and Canon EOS 40D with which he shoots wildlife.
The macaque shot a couple hundred pictures by the time that Slater was able to recover the equipment. While many of the shots were out of focus, the majority of the pictures showed the monkeys showing off their teeth as it’s likely the first time they had seen their reflections. Slater said that the group of monkeys was initially frightened by the clicking sounds of the camera, but they all eventually returned to check out the gear.” Digitaltrends

iPhone becomes a DSRL


Photojojo released an SRL Mount for iPhone which gives you the possibility to use your Canon EOS or Nikon SRL lenses on your iPhone. What to say? It is an eccentric invention for many iPhone fans who want to take photos more pretentious. In reality the result seems more a flashy and heavy iPhone “application”.

MIRRORLESS look


The new, increasing interest on the mirrorless shows a market tendency. The most successful proposals are: Olympus with PEN E-PL2 and PEN E-PL1, Panasonic with LUMIX GF2, Sony NEX-5. They have gained a a very interesting percentage of sales.
And in the other hand, Canon and Fuji just yesterday on Reuters have expressed a great attention to the mirrorless segment. Surely they can not leave eating slices of market so lucrative. But this would be a step toward a very high competition.
Fuji would become world No. 3 in cameras, surpassing Samsung and Nikon; Canon would keep ahead; Sony is an increasingly strong competitor and Panasonic too.
When in 2012 all will be present with their new proposals, the market could have new sales rankings and a new winners list.
I am curious about it!
