We've been very, very confused about the sensor in the Canon EOS R3 for a while. We've reported on this a few times, in fact. There have been a lot of changes to the language of the sensor. Apparently, it was all just copy-editing errors more than anything else.
Canon has said before that it's their sensor, according to a few sources. But Canon has finally put an attributable source to their quotes on the sensor. . thephoblographer.com
Image: Canon Canon has developed a 410MP full-frame sensor, which it says is primarily designed for markets such as surveillance, medicine and industrial applications. Canon doesn't typically disclose details of sensors it plans to use in its cameras prior to those cameras being announced, which is another strong hint that this won't be the basis of the next R-series model. dpreview.com »

There's a craze going on right now for DSLRs and retro digicams. And it all makes so much sense. We've said for years that digital cameras feel flat and boring. That's because brands aren't being daring with their designs and they're all using the same parts.
Sony photographers are going to love this! With the Phoblographer's presets, you can speed up how you work in Lightroom. You folks asked for them, and now you've got them! Over the years, the Phoblographer's staffers have tested various cameras and lenses as well as film emulsions.
Camera manufacturers, in many ways, have concluded defeat since the rise of smartphones. They realized they couldn't beat them in terms of production, versatility, or price, so it would be best if they focused on what's next: higher-end cameras.
Sony will join pretty much every camera manufacturer in announcing new wares for the CP+ show in late February. Both rumored lenses look like they’ll be the kind of lenses that will be popular.
Although we have stepped into 2025, we are quite yet done with the previous year. In our previous coverage, you may have seen headlines about the most popular cameras for pros, anticipated cameras we should have seen in 2024, and old devices that are perfect even in 2024.
The year 2024 has been a positive time for the camera industry. Why? The Camera & Imaging Products Association (CIPA) recently revealed its stats for the month of November. From the looks of it, things are finally picking up, and clearly, consumers are inclined to buy cameras that we thought had been going defunct: the mighty DSLR.
There are obvious questions about the Content Authenticity Initiative by Adobe that still are being worked out. However, we have a lot of hope that it's going to help the future of the web. One of the biggest problems the web currently faces is misinformation with generative AI imagery.
