In an update to a very intriguing rumor that hit the airwaves a couple of weeks ago, CanonWatch is reporting that Canon will use a “moving sensor” to create the rumored “pro” EOS R camera with a hybrid EF/RF mount we originally mentioned here.

Canon USA has launched a new line of printers called the PIXMA G-Series MegaTank. It’s the first line of PIXMA inkjet printers that use built-in refillable tanks rather than cartridges. The new lineup currently has 4 different models that differ slightly in size and specs: the G1200, G2200, G3200, and G4200. Each of the 4 […] petapixel.com »

When one talks about the camera industry, it is pretty evident that mirrorless cameras are anyone's go-to deal. They are fast, efficient, and smaller to carry but may come with a hefty price tag. Yet, mirrorless cameras seem to be what most photographers want.
When it comes to buying cameras today, size, price, weather sealing, and megapixels are a few things that people consider. However, oftentimes, many people begin to chase megapixels the most, as it is considered to help one achieve 'better' results.
When it comes to sensor technology, Nikon has been taking a back seat in recent years. While their cameras, like the Nikon Z9 and Z8, have been breaking new ground in the mirrorless segment, they have had to rely on Sony to produce sensors for these (and other) cameras.
NASA has unveiled a new infrared camera that promises to drive impressive new science on Earth and beyond.

We will be releasing an upcoming series of articles on infrared photography that I've been slowly working through the last few weeks, and this amusingly popped up in the list of patent applications published.
In this patent application (2024-019961) Canon shows off a high-speed stacked sensor using three substrate layers. As you can imagine, sensor layers are like a house, the more floors you have the more flexibility you have, and the more room.
Five years ago, the first thing manufacturers talked about when launching a new camera was the sensor. Megapixels made headlines along with backlit designs and sensor stacking. But, has all that changed? Looking at technical tests and rankings like those from DxO Mark, half of all the top ten full frame cameras are more than three years old.
