Describing the elegant simplicity of the Leica M digital rangefinder camera system to the uninitiated can be tricky. The words of praise that I hear come out of my own mouth often come off as comically paradoxical. “Nope, it doesn’t have autofocus or image stabilization, and oh, the minimum focus distance is probably double that of your DSLR or mirrorless lenses, which is all part of what makes shooting with it such a special experience.” Statements like

How do you make one of the most refined camera systems even better? Up the resolution, of course. For a camera system maker that thrives on minimalism, the launch of the M10-R is exactly what you'd expect from Leica: one strong and meaningful update without touching anything else. While I can argue that this is exactly the reason why Leica does camera updates right, I also wonder, is it enough? Does just bumping up the M10's resolution

Ever since Olympus announced its intention to transfer its imaging business to Japan Industrial Partners, Inc. (JIP), on June 24, we’ve been anxious to learn further details. For 84 years, the Olympus brand has been synonymous with innovative camera technology and unique product development. What effects will this transfer have on the current and upcoming Olympus product line? What will it mean for photographers who currently use Olympus camera gear?
For a better understanding of this matter, we recently asked Mr. Aki Murata, president of

Artificial intelligence is creeping into every piece of technology you own. It’s in your phones, in your computers, and in your speakers, just to name a few. I guess it was inevitable that AI would come for your cameras, as well. Don’t worry—AI isn’t here to eliminate the photographer, it’s simply to make certain more complicated operations a lot easier to perform. Also, this isn’t AI in the movie sense. No cameras are going to launch a robot revolution any

Speaking as a photographer who learned the craft of black-and-white photography using a 4 x 5" field camera and Tri-X film, I know a good black-and-white photograph when I see one. After spending an afternoon wandering about New York’s Chelsea Market and the elevated High Line with the new Leica M10 Monochrom, I can tell you straight up that the M10 Monochrom takes incredibly good black-and-white photographs. And you can bank

In 1975, the Internet didn’t exist, smartphones didn’t exist, wafer-thin laptops were a pipedream, and if you were a photographer, you shot film. Thanks to a Kodak employee named Steven Sasson, all this was about to change. By hacking parts of an old Kodak Super 8 movie camera together with a half dozen or so circuit boards and a 2MP monochrome CCD sensor, Sasson created what is recognized as the first working digital camera. Though considered more of a curiosity than an industry game changer early on, photographers began reckoning with the
