credits: Fujifilm According to multiple sources cited by FujiRumors, Fujifilm is actively working on a new GFX model built around a massive 180-megapixel sensor. This is not something that is about to drop any time soon, though, it will have a long development timeline, with 2027 looking like the earliest realistic window for any kind of official announcement. The most interesting story here might just be the sensor itself. The same sources report that Sony is developing a ne

credits: Canon It looks like Canon may be developing a very practical addition to its RF super-telephoto lineup. A newly published patent points to an RF 300mm f/2.8 L IS USM with a built-in 1.4× teleconverter, effectively letting you switch between 300mm f/2.8 and roughly 400mm f/4 without changing lenses. On paper, that is a genuinely useful combination for sports and wildlife photographers who often need a bit more reach but don’t want to juggle extenders or swap glass in

The filter will be available in a wide range of sizes, covering 49mm, 67mm, 77mm, 82mm, 86mm, and 95mm, along with support for PolarPro’s Helix MagLock system. It is a motion-based optical filter that uses a carefully designed internal geometry to create directional streaks and flowing lines across the shot. Unlike ‘simpl

credits: Canon It seems like the upcoming PowerShot G7 X Mark IV will be a much more interesting camera than Canon’s recent compact releases. Based on multiple sources, the camera is expected to arrive sometime between March and September. Most importantly, Canon may finally be listening to photographers again. The V1 left many people hanging thanks to its lack of an EVF, no built-in flash, and a body that felt much larger than it needed to be. The G7 X Mark IV however, is sw

credits: Cosina Cosina has announced the new Voigtländer Portrait Heliar 75mm f/1.8, coming to Nikon Z and Canon RF mounts. It is a full-frame lens with a 75mm focal length and an angle of view of roughly 33 degrees. Physically, the lens weighs 580 grams, measures roughly 71mm in diameter and 90mm in length. It has an all-metal barrel and a standard 62mm filter thread up front. Minimum focusing distance is 0.7 meters, which is fairly typical for a lens in this class. Opticall

Multiple outlets claim the case has been accepted by the Shanghai Intellectual Property Court and reportedly names three defendants, Viltrox itself, its parent company, and a Shanghai-based distributor. A hearing is apparently scheduled for March 2, 2026, although neither Niko

credits: Fujifilm There has been some chatter recently that the Fujifilm X-H2S might be nearing the end of its life, but Fujifilm says that is not the case. The speculation started after Fuji Rumors noticed the camera disappearing from a few retailers. At the same time, B&H lists the X-H2S as “temporarily out of stock,” which can happen for all kinds of routine reasons. Other major retailers, like Adorama and Amazon, still have the camera available. As the story spread, it st

credits: 7Artisans 7Artisans officially announced the M 75mm f/1.25 Mark II, an updated version of its ultra-fast manual focus portrait lens for Leica M-mount cameras. The Mark II follows the original 75mm f/1.25 with a similar core concept, fast aperture, compact rangefinder-friendly design, but with a series of refinements. From an optical standpoint, the Mark II uses a 7-element, 6-group construction, which includes extra-low dispersion and high-refractive index elements.

Instead of only scanning a selected folder or catalog, Peakto can now analyse your entire photo library at once, no matter where the files are stored. That includes internal drives, external storage, network drives, and catalogs from various apps. The goal is to identify similar i
