Fab’ are one of Canada’s top camera strap manufacturers. They have a wide range of leather and rope camera straps and harnesses, and everything is made by hand in Montreal. They’ve built up an extremely good reputation for making the highest-quality straps, yet they refuse to rest on their laurels.

Huawei's smartphone imaging innovation has come a long way since the introduction of XMage color science four years ago. The Pura series, previously known as the P series, has held its title as a photography flagship for even longer, consistently packing in all the greatest imaging technology. This year is no different with the introduction of the Pura 90s Pro Max. Huawei combines its latest True-to-Color 2.0 sensor with an industry-leading, ultra-large-sensor telephoto camera, pushing the imaging envelope to new heights, offering even more flexibility for users to express themselves through their unique perspective.

Ask around and you will get a confident answer: bigger pixels are better. They gather more light, so they produce cleaner images with less noise, which is why the low-megapixel low-light specialist supposedly beats the high-resolution body when the sun goes down. It is one of the most repeated ideas in photography, and it is mostly wrong. Not entirely wrong, which is what makes it stubborn, but wrong in the specific way it is usually meant.

It usually starts a few nights before a shoot. You start checking weather forecasts, cloud-cover percentages, and sun angles. You try to judge the likelihood of fog. You pack your bag with the gear you need for the anticipated conditions. You have locations planned out. You know exactly where the car will be parked and what the light should do. You feel prepared. But have you just planned too much?

A 135mm f/1.8 full frame autofocus lens for $690 undercuts every rival on the market by a wide margin, and until recently, a lens this fast at this focal length simply didn't exist at this price. For portrait and event shooters chasing that tight, wildly out-of-focus look, the math suddenly changes.

There is a certain kind of photography that does not begin with a plan, a map, or even a clear idea of what you are looking for. It begins the moment you realize you are already lost and you decide, consciously or not, to keep going anyway.

A window and a dark room are enough to shoot a portrait good enough for the New York Times. No strobes, no modifiers, no expensive gear, just daylight and a few decisions you learn to make on purpose.

London rewards the photographer who stops rushing from landmark to landmark and instead learns a handful of spots inside out. The same corner shifts completely between a July afternoon and a January noon, and knowing when to show up matters as much as knowing where.

A lens can hit every spec on your wishlist and still leave you flat when you actually shoot with it. The Sigma 15mm f/1.4 DC is a case study in that gap between numbers and feeling.

Recently, I had the chance to try out the new Wacom MovinkPad Pro 14. It wasn't that long ago that I experimented with Wacom's One 13 Touch. Although the MovinkPad Pro 14 isn't built specifically for photographers, the upgrade in my experience over the Wacom One Touch was significant. As an adventure guide and photographer, I travel to a minimum of four continents a year, and the portability of the MovinkPad Pro 14 really does draw me in past the drawbacks of pushing it outside its native operating system or purpose.

I love street photography; it’s fun. Everyone can do it because you don’t need to spend a lot of money to travel to far-off destinations. If there are no big cities nearby, no worries, we can do it in our local towns. Perfect!

For years the honest answer to "is the phone camera good enough?" came with an asterisk. Good enough in nice light. Good enough if you did not zoom. Good enough until the sun went down. I have carried an iPhone 17 Pro Max since launch weekend, and after nine months of pointing it at nearly every situation I run into, the asterisk is mostly gone. This is the first iPhone where the answer to "can it handle that?" was just yes, across reach, dark, wide, close, and the kind of dramatic sky I cannot stop photographing.

Almost every consumer camera you have ever bought came with a spec sheet, and that spec sheet left out the one number that most directly describes how good the sensor is at its actual job: catching light and turning it into signal. It told you the megapixel count, the ISO range, the frame rate, the buffer depth, the number of autofocus points. It did not tell you the sensor's quantum efficiency, and Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, and the rest of the consumer camera business have quietly settled into never printing it.

A full frame pancake lens that costs around $200, mounts autofocus, and shrinks a Sony body down to something that reads as a point-and-shoot sounds like it has to give something up. The Viltrox 26mm f/2.8 EVO Edition FE gives up a little, but far less than the price and size suggest.

A bride carried her late father's 1970s Rollei to her wedding, handed it to a brother, and asked him to shoot whatever caught his eye. When the scans came back weeks later, the first frame wasn't the wedding at all. It was her mother and father, standing together more than two decades earlier.

A growing wave of AI-generated animal videos is spreading across social media, and researchers say these fabricated clips are quietly reshaping how the public understands real wildlife. The concern is not just that the videos are fake, but that they present impossible or invented behavior as if it were documented fact.

NASA just put a photo of the Statue of Liberty Nebula in front of a global audience, and the image came from astrophotographer Logan Carpenter. The picture ran as the Astronomy Picture of the Day on July 20, 2026, spotlighting a glowing star nursery roughly 9,000 light-years away.

Buying your first interchangeable-lens camera is a harder decision than it should be, because the marketing pushes you toward the wrong questions. It wants you comparing megapixels and burst rates between bodies. Those numbers barely matter for a beginner. What matters is the decision underneath them, which brand's system you are joining, because that choice binds you to a family of lenses and accessories that will outlast the body many times over. Get the system right and almost any current camera in it will serve you well. Get it wrong and you will feel the walls close in the moment you want your second lens. This guide walks through the decisions that actually determine whether you end up with a camera you grow into or one you fight.

The Bluetti Elite 400 is a 3,840 Wh portable power station that rolls, and that second detail turns out to matter almost as much as the first. This is a nearly 4 kWh LiFePO4 battery with a 2,600 W pure sine wave inverter, built into a case with luggage wheels and a telescoping handle, and it is aimed squarely at the gap between the little 1,000 Wh boxes you carry with one hand and the 100-pound bricks you never actually move. That gap is exactly where a lot of real-world power lives: a computer you do not want to lose in an outage, a fridge to keep cold when the grid goes down, a campsite to run, and a permanent pile of batteries and devices that need charging.

I can still remember sitting at our dining table surrounded by contracts, envelopes, printer paper, and stamps, thinking there had to be a better way to run a business than this.

More and more photographers are slowing down on social media, and a growing number are quitting it outright. The shift traces back to a single change in how these platforms decide what gets seen, and it affects anyone trying to build an audience around their work.

You can win a photo competition shooting JPEGs on full auto, never touching a computer, and uploading straight to a tablet. That claim sits at the heart of a debate every shooter eventually runs into: does technical mastery matter, or does creative vision carry the whole thing?

Pancake lenses promise to shrink your camera down to something you'll actually carry, but the gap between the marketing and real-world performance can be wide. Five slim options exist for Fujifilm X-mount cameras, and their prices, quality, and quirks vary far more than their similar shapes suggest.

There are two completely different ways to use AI in a photography business, and clients react to them in opposite directions. Confusing the two is the fastest way to talk yourself out of a tool that would save you ten hours a week, or into a practice that quietly costs you the trust your business runs on. The distinction has become the central survival question for working photographers, and it is simpler than the noise around AI suggests. One kind of AI runs your business and speeds up your production. The other kind changes what your pictures show. The first carries far less risk to the thing clients actually buy from you. The second is where your reputation lives or dies.

Sony has announced the FX5, a full frame Cinema Line camera built around a newly developed image sensor, with Open Gate shooting and internal raw recording that mark firsts for the FX series.
