This week's Firmware Friday roundup is very likely a record-breaker when it comes to interchangeable-lens cameras. Even without including overseas equivalents, we have 20 DSLR and mirrorless cameras on the list from Canon, Nikon and Panasonic, and 24 once Panasonic's overseas equivalents are added into the mix.
And as...

It's a great way to help you view your camera selections side-by-side, after which you can dive into our deeper content once you've somewhat narrowed the playing...
After five long years, the successor to Canon's most affordable full-frame DSLR is here. Say hello to the Canon 6D Mark II. Sporting an all-new 26MP full-frame sensor with Dual Pixel CMOS AF, a 45-point AF system, and most noticeably, a 3.0-inch,...
Manufacturers always provide some software along with their cameras, but it's usually their own in-house products that are featured. One recent exception was Samsung bundling Adobe Lightroom with certain models, but that was back before Adobe's current Creative Cloud era.
Now Canon is packaging an unusually valuable...

Take a look at Canon's EOS line of interchangeable-lens DSLR cameras, and something will immediately jump out at you: Two very different cameras with much the same list pricing. For just US$1,800 list, you can opt for either the full-frame Canon 6D, or the fully-featured Canon 7D II.
The Canon 7D Mark II is the...
If you're in the market for a full-frame DSLR with a relatively affordable price-tag, the Canon 6D and Nikon D610 will doubtless be right near the top of your list. But if you're not already invested in full-frame glass for the Canon EF or Nikon F lens mounts, choosing between the two is quite a challenge.
As the...
Winding down and getting ready for the weekend? If so, you might enjoy a few minutes with this cool time-lapse video shot in the ultra-modern cities of the United Arab Emirates. We know we did!
It's been a couple of weeks since we last watched a time-lapse, figuring that Martin Heck's 4K film shot in the land of...
Friday has been and gone, and unfortunately with news editor Mike Tomkins overseas, this week's Firmware Friday update slipped between the cracks. Fear not, though, firmware fans. A day later than intended, the roundup is here. This week we've already mentioned one of the key updates -- that shipped by Sony two...

Think of Hong Kong, and the picture in most people's minds is probably of the city itself: built-up, densely populated, teeming with life, activity and neon signs. There's another side to Hong Kong, though, one most tourists don't get to see. Almost three quarters of Hong Kong's land is made up of remote areas,...
Despite a few quibbles, the 20.2-megapixel Canon 6D lives up to its promise of housing a glorious, full-frame CMOS sensor inside a smaller, lighter and more affordable digital SLR camera body designed for prosumers, enthusiasts, and even novice photographers. Are we in love with everything about this camera? No, but Canon's done a great job of...
Have you experienced issues with your Canon EOS 6D digital SLR spontaneously requesting you to reconfigure its date and time settings? If so, you're not alone, and Canon has a fix for the problem. (But you're recommended to install the firmware regardless, as the company says that you may do so in the future.)
The problem is solved in Canon...
Good news, ACDSee fans: the latest versions of ACD Systems' workflow tools have arrived, bringing greatly-expanded raw file support and more.
ACDSee is currently available in two variants: the flagship ACDSee Pro6 , and the more affordable ACDSee 15. For the newly-released updates, both receive almost the same list of changes. Both apps now...
Canon's EOS 6D digital SLR lowers the barrier to entry to the company's full-frame digital SLR lineup, with a pricetag well below that of the EOS 5D Mark III, and even a little less than the now rather long-in-the-tooth 5D Mark II. That's made the 6D pretty popular with photographers and videographers on a tight budget, but early adopters have...
A few months ago we published a series of articles showing that certain Canon lenses on the newest Canon cameras -- the EOS 5D Mark III and EOS-1D X -- autofocused more accurately than on earlier Canon bodies for center-point, single-shot autofocus. These combinations actually offered similar autofocus accuracy to that we could obtain with...

After last week's announcement of the affordable full-frame Nikon D600 digital SLR, it's no surprise to see the Canon EOS 6D finally emerge from behind the curtain of rumor and conjecture. The new Canon 6D is another camera designed to appeal to the photographer who wants to step up to full-frame but has found the...
