Ahead of CES 2026 getting underway in early January, Birdfy has announced two new camera-equipped smart bird feeders that can identify and capture visitors in slow motion. The Birdfy Hum Bloom is specifically designed to attract and record hummingbirds using a nectar bulb that mimics flowers they’re naturally attracted to, while the Feeder Vista introduces […]
Although our phones are all equipped with cameras, there is still something special about being able to immediately produce a printed photo to pass around or give as a gift. If that’s something that appeals to you, the Fujifilm Instax Mini 12 instant camera is a great gift idea, and it’s now on sale at […]
Smartphones with secondary screens on the back aren’t a new idea. Most recently the Xiaomi 17 series launched in September with a smaller rear display and while the company suggests using it for widgets or gaming, the most practical use is as a way to frame selfies captured with the phone’s superior rear cameras. The […]
Hollyland, a company best known for affordable wireless microphones that are popular with creators, has announced its first webcam, the small 4K Lyra. While it lacks advanced features like the Insta360 Link’s tracking gimbal, it’s one of the first webcams we’ve seen that’s designed to improve how you sound by connecting directly to one of […]
iPhone 17 Pro users have fewer ways to take photographs in low-light conditions compared to those using older iPhone models. Specifically, the option to select Night mode when taking snaps in Portrait mode — which gives the camera app an artsy depth-of-field effect — isn’t supported on iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max devices, per […]
I was stoked to learn that the recently announced Sony A7 V had improved ergonomics. Just like I was happy to first hear that Sony’s flagship A9 III and A1 II cameras got new ergonomic grip designs before that. I actually bought an A9 III to replace my aging A9 II for my wedding photography. […]
Sony is announcing the A7 V, its first camera with a partially stacked sensor and various features borrowed from pricier Alpha models. It will be available body-only in late December for $2,899, and a kit including a new 28-70mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS II lens is coming in February. The A7 V is one of Sony’s most […]
If you shoot video professionally, there’s a good chance you’ve salivated over a RED camera at some point. RED has long been one of the top choices for big-budget productions, offering a combination of image quality and flexibility that’s unrivaled by most consumer cameras. They’re also wildly expensive, topping out at around $45,000 on the […]
Fujifilm’s unusual X Half elicited a lot of feelings from photographers when it came out earlier this year — from “That looks like so much fun,” to “Wait, it costs how much?“ Its $849.95 list price felt way too high for what is, by all accounts, a fun, unserious little point-and-shoot. But its $649 sale […]
Wyze has announced an unorthodox approach to outdoor security cameras with its new Window Cam that monitors your yard and property from inside your home. This Rear Window approach to security means the camera doesn’t need batteries, Wi-Fi range extenders, access to an exterior power outlet, or weatherproofing. The company already offers window mounts for […]
