On paper the Fujifilm X-A7 appears to address many of its predecessor’s shortcomings, but do those improvements add up to a better real-world experience? Chris and Jordan head to Calgary’s awe-inspiring, fire-breathing Beakerhead festival to get a feel for how it handles.
Well that’s something new: You can preorder this underwater drone on Kickstarter:
Imagine holding the ocean in the palm of your hand. Precisely the idea behind CHASING DORY, the smallest, smartest and most affordable next generation underwater drone. DORY swims with the big fish in terms of premium features, yet its intuitive set-up and highly sharable nature make it a favorite among avid adventurers and fun-seeking travelers alike. DORY follows the success of CHASING’s Indiegogo campaign for GLADIUS in 2017, which ended with 1629% funding and 100% delivered to backers. After setting the standard with affordability and functionality in underwater drones with GLADIUS, and winning the Red Dot Product Design award with GLADIUS MINI, CHASING is once again setting new benchmarks for quality with DORY. Designed to bring the aquatic world to the masses, DORY invites you to explore places unknown and waters unseen with surprising ease. What’s underwater awaits.

Geekster has announced their new 35mm f/1.1 for Sony E, Fuji X, MFT and EOS-M mirrorless cameras:
7 Elements in 6 Groups
Click F-Stop Ring
Reversible Bayonet Lens Hood
Rugged Metal Body
It surely looks like Sony is giving a lot of efforts to keep the Micro Four Thirds kicking and alive! They announced this new 47MP sensor (41MP in 4/3 mode) capable of recording 8K video.
I am pretty sure we will get 8K MFT mirrorless cameras long before 8K will be available for Full Frame. At the moment an 8K FF camera in a compact body would create a nuclear alike Chernobyl explosion :)
The image above show the new Sony A9II leaked via SonyAlphaRumors. And we can be 100% certain it will be announced soon because Nokishita spotted the A9II name registration in Asia:
Those of you waiting for the A7sIII and A7IV have to wait at least til 2020 to see them :(
43rumors leaked the image of the new E-M5III that will be announced on October 17. The camera will have most of the E-M1X features for a fraction of the price. If that’s really the case I think it will sell well!
E-M5III rumor summary:
Announcement on October 17 (99% certain)
Same 20MP E-M1II sensor with 121 cross-type phase detection pixels
New processing engine
Lighter, more plasticky but still weather sealed body
Same BLS-50 battery of the PEN and E-M10 camera series (60% certain)
