News › 24-105mm
Firmware Friday enters the final month of the 2010s this week with news of camera updates from two companies -- Canon and Sony -- as well as updated software from Fujifilm. The bulk of the changes made are aimed at fixing bugs, but there are a few new features in the mix as well.
We'll kick things off...
Our Firmware Friday roundup this week is a doozie, with well over a dozen updates for cameras and lenses from a wide range of brands, including Canon, Fuji, Leica, Nikon, Olympus and Sony. We've a lot to discuss in what we've dubbed Mondo Firmware Friday, so let's get right down to it!
After a short hiatus, Firmware Friday returns this week with an absolutely massive roundup. We've a lot to discuss, so we're going to skip the preamble and keep things really brief this time around. If you're a Canon, Fuji, Nikon, Panasonic, Ricoh / Pentax, Sigma or Sony shooter, you'll want to stick around. The...
In the wee small hours of last night, Sony announced its new Sony A7R III mirrorless camera body, as well as a new compact, lightweight standard zoom lens, the FE 24-105mm F4 G OSS. The company also revealed that it's developing a G Master-branded 400mm f/2.8 optic which should be arriving next summer.
Interestingly,...
There's big news for Sony fans today, as the company has announced the debut of a new mirrorless camera model and a new lens set for availability next month, as well as the development of another high-end lens slated to arrive just in time for the 2018 Winter Olympics.

Another week has whizzed by, and it's time once again for Firmware Friday, our regular roundup of what's new for your camera gear. This week, we have news of firmware updates for two still cameras, three video cameras and a lens, as well as of a software update applicable to two further cameras.
We'll kick off in...
Two weeks ago to the day, we told you about an interesting service advisory which popped up on the website of Canon Philippines. A short while after our article went live, the update vanished and a few days later we received a confirmation that it had accidentally been released early. And now, it's back! (And not...
Our Firmware Friday roundup this week is a rare one indeed, as it brings with it news of an update not launched, but rather pulled from distribution. Alongside new Cinema EOS firmware updates this week, Canon has officially withdrawn its most recent update for the EOS 7D Mark II DSLR. Nor is that all for the week -- we...
Alongside the launch of the new Canon 5D Mark IV DSLR, the company has today made several other announcements that will be of interest both to prospective 5D IV buyers, and to those using the company's other DSLRs. Among the new products are updated 16-35mm f/2.8L and 24-105mm f/4L lenses, Canon's first Wi-Fi equipped SD...
Friday is here, and once again, it's firmware time! For the second week running, our Firmware Friday roundup doesn't include any consumer cameras, with the majority of this week's news instead consisting of lens updates. Japan's Sigma Corp. has new firmware for five lens models, as well as for the dock used to...
Fancy adding another lens to your camera bag? If so, Canon has just announced three new optics that could occupy a little of the space you yearn to fill, no matter the size and your budget.
The largest and highest-priced of the trio, not surprisingly, is the Canon EF 400mm f/4 DO IS II USM. Set to ship this...
Japanese optics manufacturer Sigma has been earning quite a bit of publicity lately -- and we'd wager some pretty good sales too -- thanks to a rejuvenated lens lineup that puts the big boys on notice with eyecatching specifications and great image quality. While the company's Zeiss-slaying 50mm f/1.4 Art lens has...
Earlier this week, we learned about a new upcoming full-frame lens from Sigma that would offer a constant f/4 aperture across its 24-105mm focal length and be available in Sigma, Nikon, Canon and Sony mounts. Sigma has now made that lens official, and also told us that it will ship in November (though we still don't know...
For its latest lens launch, Sigma has taken an unusually low-key approach: The brand-new Art-series Sigma 24-105mm F4 DG OS HSM itself does the talking, with no formal announcement made alongside its introduction. But don't let that sell it short: It looks like a very interesting lens indeed.
With approximately a...
