The 16-megapixel NEX-F3 is an upgrade to the least expensive NEX series camera, [...] Continue Reading…

I am by no-means a professional photographer. Although, just to get in the more closely guarded press event, I have been known to slap an old 500 series Hassleblad around my neck with a Sharpie’d “PRESS” scribbled on a piece of paper taped to my hat. [...] Continue Reading…

By TJ Donegan

The Olympus PEN series of Micro Four Thirds cameras hit the scene a few years ago, bringing with them a retro design theme based around rangefinder cameras from the film era. The cameras have been a hit, combining a now-developed lens family, compact size, and solid design.

Nikon Coolpix S9300 ReviewNews from Digit:
Point and Shoot cameras are not what they used to be anymore. I remember my first digital camera. It was a Canon Powershot A520 with a 4megapixel resolution and a measly 4x optical zoom.
