Once a popular category, compact cameras with large sensors are becoming harder to find. But German camera maker Leica’s latest in the Q compact series brings modern features like animal eye AF and a 60-megapixel sensor to a classic camera body that has changed very little over the years. The Leica Q3 is setting out to prove, once again, that simpler is better when it comes to genres like street photography or even journalism and lifestyle.
This month, our subscribers qualify to win a NONS SL42 Instax Camera — and that’s just one of the great perks. This camera was rated very highly by us and has the ability to shoot with interchangeable lenses and manual controls. When the Phoblographer’s Membership program was created, we wanted to find a way to …
We said before that the new Tamron 35-150mm f2-2.8 was going to be one of the best lenses, if not the best, for the Nikon Z mount system. Tamron sent us one to update our review. And what we found is quite impressive. If you’re a Nikon Z mount shooter, we think that this is the single zoom lens that every photographer must have. It’s so incredibly versatile, you’d be kicking yourself later for not having it.
DJI’s Mini series skirts many regulations around drone flight — but there are a lot of limitations to flying a lightweight drone, including lower wind resistance. The DJI Air 3 decreases the portability yet increases the reliability. The mid-tier drone has similar main camera specs to the cheaper Mini 3. But, the Air 3 carries a second camera — equivalent to a 70mm view — and more flight features like omini-directional obstacle avoidance.

The Tamron 70-300mm is a very underrated lens. But if you’re planning on photographing birds, then you’ll be amazed at everything it’s capable of doing at such an affordable price. It also has a discount right now that’s going on for a while. If you’re a Nikon Z, Fujifilm X, or Sony E mount camera …
The next iteration in the Fuji X100 series would be its 6th. The first model was released over a decade ago, in 2010, heralding a new era for Fujifilm. Until now, they’ve kept a 23mm APS-C (35mm full-frame equivalent) lens on all the models. A new report from FujiRumors suggests that the successor to the …
Photographer Johan Kropp made the lead image that we found on Flickr. It’s surreal! One might think that it was probably made by an AI today if they didn’t know about film processes. Indeed, this is a film photo. But instead, it’s a process called Trichrome photography. And we talked to him about how he makes his incredible images.
“Actually, I’m happy and proud being able to say that only very little digital editing went into these images,” says photographer Peter van Ham to us in an interview about preserving a relic of Tibetian Buddhist history — the Alchi. “This is due to the fantastic quality of the source material generated by the Phase One XT with the IQ back. All we ever needed to do in some cases was slight darkening or contrast enhancement here and there if, for example, the amount of light used in a photograph was too high.” The needs of high megapixel cameras are few and far between for photographers these days. But when they are used to their fullest advantage, they produce images truly worth staring at. Many times, they’re also doing very specialized types of work.
Billingham genuinely makes bags designed to last on pretty much the same level as you’d expect from Filson. Lots of camera bags aren’t really designed to last for a very long time. But Billingham bags are made differently — specifically, they’re made in a way that used to be the norm. The Phoblographer’s staff has …
