For Mac users, there is also Acorn.

Poor Hogarty, he is a nice guy and a collateral victim of the CC fiasco. Hei s the LR/ACR Product Manager, not an executive, and he is not in a position of authority to bind the company to a...

I'm still on CS5 Design Standard (I've been upgrading continuously since Photoshop 7), and since they seem to have yanked the upgrade versions of CS6 from all outlets, I am unlikely to upgrade even...

Yes, specially if it were a 50mm f/1.4 equivalent. It need not be that large - the Voigtlander Nokton 40mm f/1.4 is a very compact lens.

Nope, looks like a film-era GR1v. If anyone is copying, it is Sony.

"But it's important to give credit to Ricoh as the only manufacturer to have a history of building compact cameras with prime lenses."

This is in no way to detract from Ricoh's rich heritage with...

I don't buy it. Mirrorless cameras have far fewer moving parts than DSLRs and are thus significantly cheaper to assemble, yet their prices are often higher than that of entry-level DSLRs. There is...

I'm a Mac user and can't stand Windows any more. For the most part, Lightroom and Photoshop work the same, but there is one area where Windows has the edge - support for high-bit-depth displays,...

Well, I sold my 35mm f/1.4L for more than I paid for it. On the other hand, I also sold my Noctilux-M 50mm f/1.0 for 3x the price I had paid of it. Far better investment than the stock market or...

Well, Leica was known primarily for optical and mechanical expertise, not for mastery of electronics (quite the opposite, in fact). They are a very small company that was emerging of a brush with...

The OM-D is not pocketable like this one. It competes with the RX100 and Leica X2, not with m43 system cameras.

Yes, a comparison to the Leica X1/X2 is more appropriate. Smaller than the X100/X100S, f/2.8 rather than f/2, no viewfinder. It seems smaller than the X2, though, and the extending lens makes it...

I left m43 (GF1 with 20mm f/1.7) for the Leica X1 in 2010. More compact, much better image quality, and now use a Fuji X100 (with a X100S on order) as my EDC camera.

According to Thom Hogan the Fuji X100 sold over 200,000 copies, so there is a sizeable market.Back in the days of film, circa 1995-2001 the Nikon 35Ti was my main camera. I have a X100, and a X100S...

Nope, Sony is bleeding red ink in 3 out of 4 of their hardware divisions (not just cameras). It's their movie and financial services divisions that keep the boat afloat. There is a significant risk...

Yes. My Canon 5DmkIII with 24-70mm f/2.8L II locks AF on my very wriggly 1 year old in a way none of my mirrorless cameras can (Leica X1, Fuji X100, Fuji X-Pro1, Sony RX1). The optical quality from...

I bought a HP ZR30w 30-incher to replace my old HP LP3065 when its lower backlight tube failed a few months ago, and can recommend it. I wish LED-backlit displays were available in high-gamut 30",...

Bodies aren't, though. The big advantage of the Nikon 1 system is the fast PDAF, but Nex has it now, and soon Fuji as well.

I saw someone using one when I took my 1 year-old daughter to see the "Tom & Jerry House" Christmas decorations in San Francisco (not an Olympus user myself, I had my X-Pro1 out, but it's...

Nope, second at best. I dropped mine 3 weeks ago (I wasn't using a wrist strap). I just got a phone call from Sony in Texas, the repair is going to cost slightly under $1K before tax.As Benjamin...
