11:40AM Rosa Golijan | Last year we drooled over the Hasselblad H3DII-50 and its 50-megapixel sensor, but now the line has gotten better with a multi-shot version of the camera. You’ll be able to take pictures of your empty wallet so much faster. More »

10:19PM Danny Allen | You might remember Casio’s EX-FC100 and EX-FH20 as two Exilims capable of 1000fps slow-mo video. Both 9.1-megapixel cameras are getting a 10-megapixel CMOS sensor, and the FH25 (a 20x superzoom) does 40fps high-speed bursts at 9 megapixels (up from 7). More »

Canon 7D Review

2:00AM Matt Buchanan | For a long time with Canon, if you weren’t dropping nearly three grand on a 5D, you were stuck with a vastly lesser DSLR. The $US1700 7D is Canon’s first semi-pro DSLR, and actually it’s my favourite yet. More »

Can You Tell The Difference Between Film And Digital Shots?

6:40PM Dan Nosowitz | Shane Hurlbut, who’s been Director of Photography on, ahem, illustrious projects like Terminator: Salvation, is a huge proponent of consumer DSLRs, especially the Canon 5D MKII. Now, he’s challenging viewers to separate digital from film shots in his new movie. Can you? More »

Canon 7D’s Continuous Mode May Retain Ghost Images

10:39AM Dan Nosowitz | In continuous mode, Canon’s 7D DSLR sometimes carries over ghost images from the previous shot, which sounds kinda cool but probably isn’t cool at all to serious photogs. Canon should offer a fix via firmware upgrade soon. [Cameratown via Crunchgear]

Nikon D3s Hands On: Night Vision Is A Beautiful Thing

2:33PM Matt Buchanan | The D3s’s impact on photography won’t be nearly as dramatic as the D3—the camera that started the low-light arms race—but we got to shoot with it, and really, you’ve never seen nicer low-light images in your life. More »

Panasonic GF1 Review: I <3 Micro Four Thirds

4:00AM Mark Wilson | There are four Micro Four Thirds cameras on the market right now. That’s it. But with Panasonic’s GF1, investing in the mini genre makes more sense than ever—if you know what you’re getting into. More »

Canon 5D Mark II Firmware Update Unlocks 1080p Video At 24FPS

12:52AM Matt Buchanan | Everybody complaining in the 1D Mark IV comment thread that there won’t be any more video firmware updates for the 5D Mark II is kinda wrong: Canon is enabling the 24fps and 25fps 1080p video recording that’s found on the 7D and 1D Mark IV, bringing it about up to par. Update’s due sometime next year, though no firmware switcheroo’s gonna deliver the 1DMkIV’s low-light sensitivity. [Planet 5D via Canon Rumors]
