Digital cameras have always been computers. You could play Doom on Kodak cameras in like 2000.

Today you buy a highest end camera and it can't even perform its main function.

1D3, ya I still remember that. I got my hands on a review sample and the AF issue was obvious immediately.

I reported on it on forums and got absolutely wrecked by Canon fans how I don't know what...

Remember the times when DSLRs didn't need any patches?

It's also funny how everyone scrambled to get their high end cameras out before the Olympics even with game breaking bugs. Looks kinda moot...

My country is the safest it's ever been in history. Streets are deserted. I was out for a ride earlier to pick up a friend who missed a night bus and in 1 hour I have seen about 15 cars and 3...

I wish I hadn't forgot to charge my D200 battery. Taking photos outdoors these days is like documenting the apocalypse.

Star Wars characters indeed use droids.

But that means Joinson himself can't ever use an iphone on screen.

Okay I know this camera is not exciting and not of much interest to the average DPR reader.

But would it hurt to describe that Guide mode just a little? Provide a screenshot or 2? Just to know if...

IMO the lightning fast AF was the whole point of the N1 series. There are a ton of small, good, even cheap cameras out there these days but still nothing with the speed of N1 and as compact (and ...

On the other hand, Apple will also make it actually work well, and probably include some simple usability feature that will make everyone go "d'oh why haven't we thought of that!".

Seriously. So much fuss about a few millimetres.

On-screen buttons, notches, pop-up cameras, unsafe under the screen fingerprint readers, now also cameras under the screen.

I don't know guys but...

Haha I watched LGR just a fee days ago.

It annoys me that even back in 1998 there was such an open OS for cameras. I actually remember reading a review of one od these back then, with the mention...

Marc, I'd had the V1 for 5 years and yes it was annoying as hell.

Dreadful UI where you needed to go into the menu to switch between modes, but a dedicated button to switch between mechanical and...

A good list. Somewhat controversial, as every list is, but I can agree with the importance of most of them, maybe apart from the Galaxy NX and the Leica T.

Yep I had the NX10 for a few weeks for a...

My Moto G6 has been bugging me about a security update for about 2 months now.

The update is dated February 1 2019. So, they aren't too fast about it.

Motorola makes some pretty groovy phones. I'm quite addicted to some nice features of my G6.

Sadly it doesn't have the recognition of Samsung not the cool factors of Xiaomi and the likes. I hope...

Good old Sigma.

They keep making lenses that are special and not only ultra sharp with bi character, like everyone else is doing.

This sounds like a lovely lens. Kinda like a resurrection of the...

Why would you use the second screen at home? Everyone has much bigger screens at home already. The point of phones is to have them with you at all times.

I second the opinion that this is stupid....

Ahead of its time it is not, as a smartphone like this has existed a few years ago already, I don't remember the brand tho.

Yes this one is detachable, but that means you won't have with you a lot...

Machine translation from Japanese is notoriously unreliable. Anyone has a proper translation?

I mean of course Oly wouldn't confirm rumors even if they're true, and whoever issued those statements...
