Olympus never gave us a digital full frame camera. It’s one of the biggest regrets of the camera industry. However they did leave us with this… the final Olympus Micro Four Thirds camera. I have just fitted a Metabones Speed Booster with Olympus OM SLR lenses to my OM-1, be it video or stills, this camera is not just underrated but a powerhouse of good design and good images. Here…

The latest news on cameras, from EOSHD
Aren’t you sick and tired of nerds? They have done so much damage to life on earth. Men and women used to make love, they used to raise families and build amazing industries, now all people can do is bicker about how many stops dynamic range a Canon and Sony has. Sony say it is 15 stops. Is the 15 stops in the room with us right now? Is the…
When Sora 2 was released (invite only), results were impressive. Investors were happy, users excited. Then, a strange thing happened. Sora began to buckle under load despite being invite only. In order to roll out Sora to all users, the technology looks to have been massively scaled back. Not only are users alleging OpenAI did this, the criticism is that they did so silently behind closed doors without elaborating. The…
With the Sony a7s IV nowhere to be seen, and a Sony FX2 with disappointing specs and an old sensor, Sony’s failure to go fully-in on video features have left users in the lurch. Now, with rival cameras like the Nikon Zr and Canon EOS R6 III offering so much more than an a7 V, for less money, Sony is building the perception that hybrid users and video shooters shouldn’t…
Having hoovered up the entire internet including even EOSHD (which it cites as a source for many camera related queries), ChatGPT has built a business based on the theft of copyrighted information, especially for Sora which is the company’s very capable video generation tool. As a world-generator it has to get the understanding of that world from our footage and immense libraries of copyright material. Today marks a landmark deal…
From a British perspective I can only look at America right now in total despair. It’s like watching the Soviet Union in the mid 1990s. The film industry is under a huge amount of pressure at the moment from all angles – now the last remaining great Hollywood studio is being offered for sale – Warner Bros. It’s the closest thing yet to putting the entirely of Hollywood up for…
(Photo credit: John Mak) The release of the Sony a7v has been met with a wave of negativity, especially now that the supposed ‘standard model’ mid-range camera price has been bumped to nearly $3000 + tax and a lot more in some regions, like in the UK where the USD-converted price works out at an insane $3600 inc. VAT, despite the Japanese yen being at historically low levels versus the…
The Canon EOS R6 Mark III is the first mid-range Canon EOS R camera that’s a true contender for top-specs in the $2800 price region. What’s even more impressive is that Canon are achieving full frame 4K/120p with no crop and 12bit 7K 60P RAW video without a stacked sensor – not even a partially stacked sensor. Funnily enough, neither is it even a backside illuminated (BSI) sensor. So what…
