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 Z6 may not offer the incredible resolution of its sibling, the Z7, but its 24MP resolution is more than enough for most people, and the money saved can buy a lot of glass. Find out what's new and notable about the Z6 in our First Impressions Review.
Wacom's latest pro tablet can help take your editing workflow – and most importantly, the final image results – to the next level.
Many cameras today include built-in image stabilization systems, but when it comes to video that's still no substitute for a proper camera stabilization rig. The Ronin-S aims to solve that problem for DSLR and mirrorless camera users, and we think DJI has delivered on that promise.
The SiOnyx Aurora is a compact camera designed to shoot stills and video in color under low light conditions, so we put it to the test under the northern lights and against a Nikon D5. It may not be a replacement for a DSLR, but it can complement one well for some uses.
At its core, the Scanza is an easy-to-use multi-format film scanner. It offers a quick and easy way to scan your film negatives and slides into JPEGs, but costs a lot more than similar products without a Kodak label.
