Is it that time of year again? It’s GoPro leak day? Yes, it is. The German-speaking site WinFuture has gotten a hold of the GoPro Hero 9’s packaging which reveals pretty much all the specs. Why don’t you join me and have a look at what’s expected to come? <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> </div></figure> </div> </div> </div> <div class="gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-d0ffa115"> <a class="gb-button gb-button-32720c84" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsI0-Q8XvCuGPw1RPtH8nbA?sub_confirmation=1"><span class="gb-icon"><svg aria-hidden="true" role="img" height="1em" width="1em" viewBox="0 0 576 512" xmlns="https://www....

A while ago, I made a video on Sony’s attempt at making a camera aimed solely at vloggers. And in that video, I didn’t have much praise for the Sony Z-V1. And yet, the Z-V1 is still a one of a kind. It’s got a large-ish sensor but a tiny body, it has a decent lens and fantastic autofocus, the built-in microphone is actually usable, it has a flippy screen, and Sony’s improvements to the skin tones were very welcome....

Nvidia has just announced three new and very powerful GPUs. As a nerd, this obviously interests me. But how can I make a post on these new RTX graphics cards relevant to photography/videography? Well GPUs play an ever increasingly important role in video and photo editing. So there’s your link. <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> </div></figure> <div class="gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-fc755f67"> <a class="gb-button gb-button-a150a8be" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsI0-Q8XvCuGPw1RPtH8nbA?sub_confirmation=1"><span class="gb-icon"><svg xmlns="https://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 576 512" width="1em" height="1em" aria-hidden="true"><path d="M549.655 124....

A popular photographer recently uploaded and published a photo of his golden retriever to the subreddit /r/aww. That post got quite a bit of attention. With over 6’500 upvotes in a 25 million strong community a lot of visitors will have seen it. What happened next got even more attention. <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> </div></figure> <div class="gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-3d789fdd"> <a class="gb-button gb-button-37c8c10a" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsI0-Q8XvCuGPw1RPtH8nbA?sub_confirmation=1"><span class="gb-icon"><svg xmlns="https://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 576 512" width="1em" height="1em" aria-hidden="true"><path d="M549.655 124....

Olympus cameras are no more. To be more precise, cameras produced by the company Olympus are no more. The company has just announced that the sale of their camera business to Japan Industrial Partners will be concluded come September. Olympus, alongside Panasonic, was one of the founding fathers of the Micro Four Thirds standard, meaning this news could have implications for the camera world at large. <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> </div></figure> <div class="gb-button-wrapper gb-button-wrapper-c30d17b9"> <a class="gb-button gb-button-111b7514" href="https://www....

Sony has just released a new camera directed solely towards vloggers and YouTuber creators. In fact, they’re even calling it the Sony Vlog camera ZV-1 (check out their website below). With my trusty NX1 slowly but surely showing its age, I’m always interested in new cameras. Especially those that won’t cost an arm and a leg, which the Sony ZV-1 certainly doesn’t. Sony came really close to making this camera perfect for the job....

Dell has finally announced a redesigned XPS 15 (2020). After five years they’ve finally brought some of its aspects in line with what competitors are offering. I was interested in this release because the XPS 15 (9560) I’m using is showing its age. I can’t even turn it on anymore without power because the battery is reportedly dead. Despite many early reviewers talking about it in glowing terms, the new XPS 15 (2020) didn’t excite me....

The YI 4K+ was announced as the successor to the popular YI 4K action camera a couple of months back. So far there hasn’t been much footage taken with the newer version shown yet, except for a few marketing videos, so there’s no judging on how good this action camera will end up being. I’ve gone through the available material on the YI Technology website numerous times and will now present my thoughts on the as of yet unreleased YI 4K+....
