Photography News: 4 New Cameras from 4 Different Companies
Last week was packed with news. Besides the unique opportunity to download raw files taken with the new Nikon Z8 on Photography Life, we have a variety of new cameras that arrived on the photography scene last week. Let’s take a closer look at them today.
Canon EOS R100 Announced: Basic Features, Great Price
The newest addition to Canon’s RF mount is the EOS R100, an entry-level APS-C mirrorless camera with a starting price of $479. Unsurprisingly, the EOS R100’s features are quite basic, and its tech feels a couple of generations old. But that’s by design – Canon’s goal here was price, not features.

Photography News: Rumored Canon 500mm Zoom, Nikon + Canon Camera Sales
I wrote some of today's Photography News within this small, cozy office I set up near a kingfisher's nest. The period when the kingfisher parents incubate their eggs is a slow one for photography. It can take up to three hours between two rotations on the nest while you wait...
Photography News: Nikon Z8 Rumored Specs, Sony Sales
Yesterday I was walking with my camera through the beautiful Krkonose mountains on the border of the Czech Republic and Poland. Even the rain could not take away their beauty.
