Japan has today posted three sample images from the much awaited six megapixel
full-frame sensor Contax N Digital. These three samples are available
on the Kyocera Japan website, all were taken at either ISO 25 or ISO 50
(which is a little concerning). Although these images look good reduced
in size but are not as sharp or detailed as images from the Canon EOS-D60,
Nikon D100 or Nikon D1x.
UPDATE 15/May: Kyocera has pulled these samples
from their website. The thumbnails are still there (click
here) but the images are no longer available for download.
UPDATE: I'm not sure what Kyocera are doing but
they have pulled the full resolution images and replaced them with much
smaller resolution images. This ISN'T inspiring confidence in the quality
of this new camera.

Notes: All shots taken in sRGB colour space, image size 3008 x 2008,
taken in TIFF mode and re-saved as JPEG (by Kyocera).

The Nikon Z7 is slated as a mirrorless equivalent to the D850, but it can't subject track with the same reliability as its DSLR counterpart. AF performance is otherwise good, except in low light where hunting can lead to missed shots.
Nikon's Coolpix P1000 has moved the zoom needle from 'absurd' to 'ludicrous,' with an equivalent focal length of 24-3000mm. So far, it's a fun camera to shoot with – if a bit over the top.
The Canon EOS R is the first full frame mirrorless camera to use the new RF mount. We're well underway putting it through our range of standard tests – take a look at how it compares to the competition and our thoughts on using it so far.
The GFX 50R is a 50MP rangefinder-style mirrorless camera. It borrows heavily from the existing 50S model but in a smaller body and at a lower price. How does it differ?
The Everyday Sling might just be the perfect pack for not carrying too much gear, combining comfort with Peak Design's signature modern style.
