20150205_thumbL_psg3x_3q

Short preview of Canon’s upcoming Powershot G3 X by DPReview at CP+. The Canon Powershot G3 X is not yet available, Canon made a development announcement a few weeks ago. The G3 X will be Canon’s third Powershot camera with a large sensor, after the [shoplink 22665]Powershot G7 X[/shoplink] and [shoplink 19768]PowerShot G1 X Mark II[/shoplink]. However, the G3 X will have a wider zoom range than the other two.

Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM Sample Pictures (DPReview) – EDIT

Bildschirmfoto 2015-02-10 um 06.39.31

EDIT: I made a big typo mess here, it’s the Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM not the Canon 11-24mm. Apologies; this happens when you are in a hurry.

DPReview posted a set of sample pics shot with Sigma’s 24mm f/1.4 lens.

Yesterday Signa announced the price of the new Sigma 24mm f/1.4 lens ($849). Pre-orders at BHphoto and Adorama. Once again Sigma made an interesting lens at an affordable price. I am pretty sure this lens will perform on the same level as the [shoplink 20221]Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art[/shoplink], [shoplink 8892]Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art[/shoplink], and the awesome [shoplink 14551]Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM[/shoplink] lenses.

Canon EOS 5DS & 5DS R Technical Review by Tony Northrup (and thoughts on lens resolution)

Tony Northrup does an exhaustive technical review of Canon’s new EOS 5DS and 5DS R (preview videos). There is a lot of talk about resolution and how much resolution modern lenses have. He does some math do compute a “perceptual resolution”, i.e. an approximate figure of an optic’s resolution, to get an idea on how well a given lens could do on the 5DS and 5DS R sensor.

EOS 5DS and 5DS R previews and hands-on: Canon Japan’s EOS 5DS image and video samples and EOS 5DS R image samples. EOS 5DS and 5DS R preview at Photography Blog, hands-on and sample pics at ephotozine, preview at DPReviewCPN Europe ArticleThe Digital Picture.

Digital Life Innnovator posted a set of EOS M3 sample pics. I think these are the first independent M3 sample pics that have been published. Please note: the samples were shot with a pre-production model of the EOS M3.

The pics were shot at a blogger convention where Canon presented their latest products. Head over to Digital Life Innovator for the samples and product shots of the M3, 5DS, the new Rebels, and the 11-24mm f/4L. The sample pics can be viewed at a bigger resolution but are resized to 80%, various lenses have been used.

Digital Life Innovator posted also pics of the presentation Canon made for the EOS M3. Click here to see the slides (in Japanese, never the less interesting).

The EOS M3 (announcement & more) will not be available in the US, only in EU and Asia. The EOS M3 will start shipping April 2015 with a RSP of £599.99/€769.99. Hands-on at DpreviewAmateur Photographerspecification sheetSample pics here (scroll down).
