No, a real conspiracy theorist would realize that all payloads were delivered safely. This was a staged failure to make us feel at ease that those high-resolution cameras are not currently...

Cows are particularly bad if they have a calf nearby.

The meanest domesticated bull is the Holstein, which is interesting because the Holstein cows are generally quite docile (and the most common...

@MightyMike, the most important thing I learned in college was that there was a whole lotta stuff I didn't know!

Lotsa blue and green due to water and trees.

If they want warm Canon colors, they just need to set white balance to 'cloudy'.

Laden or unladen?

IIRC, the 1950s-tech Hycon 73B camera, with its 36-inch focal length, apparently allowed one to discern objects in photos as small as 8 inches when magnified.... photos shot from 65,000 feet...

They are pretty good at building relatively smaller cameras around a given sensor size. I suspect they brought out the S1x big guns to intro their full-format sensor, and will now exercise their...

Great series of articles to keep us thinking about the future. I embrace computational photography for getting shots we could not otherwise get (better resolution, noiseless night shots), but...

Now, let's couple this lens and IS with a smartphone sensor, CPU and computational algorithms. The computational aspect will help deal with the diffraction and noise.

With the larger camera body,...

It isn't just the sensor. It is the high-powered CPU in the phone that is able to take advantage of the sensor and use computational algorithms to create much better photos.

I would rather see a...

I recall that Casio was one of the first to offer in-camera focus-stacking, at least in affordable P&S cameras. They even offered "all-in-focus" shots.

I really wish Panasonic would evolve...

OnePlus should have had models walking around in trash bags... would've sold a bunch of these phones.

Instead, they caved to public opinion, since perception is reality amongst the shallow-minded.

I would like a P2000.

That would be a P950 with all the computing power and computational algorithms of a modern smartphone. It will be the savior of P&S cameras.

These sensors aren't for "spy" imagery in the classic sense, but more for reconnaissance. An example would be USDA cross-checking information that they get from farmers with regard to type of...

Another timekiller... pick a piece of artwork or a map, etc. and shoot many overlapping close-up photos of parts and pieces of the art/map (a tripod helps). Then stitch them together in software...

Now I'm wondering about placing some binoculars or a monocular instead of a lens. Objective facing outside, or pupil? Now I'm wondering about switching my camera to macro mode and shooting the...

Great video, photography and creativity!

I wonder if one could add a bit of food coloring or easter egg dye to the water to get different color effects? Or would the additives destroy the surface...

This would be a heckuva camera if they could give it a sharp lens and computational processing.

I think i mentioned here several years ago, these camera designers should allow/engineer a design...

@Boomanbb: Agreed on the idiocy of the extremists. I tend to lean Republican, but I'll be voting for whoever is closest to the middle, regardless of party. The current political atmosphere is...

No update for my G85, so i guess it had no bugs?

Still, would love to see a firmware update for something simple, like one-touch infinite DoF (everything in focus via onboard 4k focus-stacking). ...
