The early 2010s were the golden age of compact cameras. Many of us stopped calling them point and shoots and instead called them things like serious compacts, fixed lens cameras, or compact cameras.
This past week, the PetaPixel team came across an opinion on another photography blog that we didn't think was fair. In short, it argued that all "small sensor cameras suck," which is just not true. [Read More]
In many of our camera reviews over the years, we've noticed a trend: small sensor cameras are really starting to suck. A good camera does the job you need. But a good camera is also one that you can use repeatedly yet never loses its intrigue.
The FE 24-50mm f/2. 8 G is designed for Sony Alpha full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras, but it also works with APS-C sensor cameras (with an effective focal length of 36-75mm due to the 1. 5x crop factor).
The new Laowa 10mm f2. 8 Zero Distortion lens is the latest option coming from the company for photographers. And it's doing something that the Japanese manufacturers haven't been doing: delivering a claim of zero distortion at such a wide angle.
