    • Photographers Hate the New Canon R8 Mark II Renders

      Photographers aren't sure that the images weren't totally made with AI, but if the renders of the Canon R8 II are real, then photographers are pissed. It's been known for a very long time that Canon and Sony tend to copy one another: look at Sony's adaption to Canon's lenses and…

    • OM System Pen Review: After 10 Years, A Street Photography King Returns

      I don't believe I'm writing this, but the OM System Pen is what I consider to be the single best camera for street photography that I've used in a very long time. And wow, did they not hold back. I'm writing this article on Labor Day here in America; and you should know that I'm…

    • Even less Human in the Loop

      It's hard for me to believe that many developers are doing what I'm hearing they're doing: token-maxxing, running agents overnight, and (especially) running 10+ agents at once. Sure it's wildly better than last year, but to me, today's popular tooling (e.g. Claude code, codex) h…

    • Dear Sony: Simplify Your Menu System Already

      I've been a Sony camera user since the early 2010s, and when they changed their menu system to the current style, things got weird. The placement of items changes and the menus got even deeper -- sometimes requiring really precise taps on the screen to progress. Luckily, you don…

      nikitonsky: Very strange pattern from Github. To rename a repo, you need to click the same button TWICE. First click runs name conflict check, and then the same button in the very same place with the same label starts behaving differently and becomes the actual rename. I only f…

      Very rarely do we want to sit there and stare at a product that comes in for review; but we absolutely did with the Lit Duo 1. It looks like a game boy and an iPhone somehow merged and is truly an excellent device thanks to the creator, who has quite a history. The Lit Duo 1 is…

    • Sigma 85mm f1.2 Art Review: Nothing is Sharper Than This

      The new Sigma 85mm f1.2 Art is targeted to high end portrait and wedding photographers. But I also think it should be used by sports photographers and event photographers. There's a lot going for it in that aspect. A while back, I got to see the Sigma 85mm f1.2 Art up close and…

    • Sigma 20-60mm f2.8-4 Contemporary Review: How is This Lens This Good?

      The Sigma 20-60mm f2.8-4 Contemporary lens has to be one of the nicest and sharpest zoom lenses of it's kind that I've ever used. And the only thing that could've made it better is fuller weather resistance. "...the vibes of the 20-60 with your processing makes me feel the brigh…
