Following the strong reception of its D1 Plus and Pro models, TerraMaster has introduced the D1 SSD Enclosure, and its timing couldn't be better. As AI and machine learning workloads continue to drive unprecedented demand for flash storage, SSD prices have climbed sharply, forcing creators to rethink how they invest in capacity. Instead of committing to expensive, fixed solutions, the D1 offers a more flexible approach to pair with the SSD that fits your budget and your needs.

Recently I got to go hands-on with the all-new Canon C50 for a couple of projects, and ultimately I wanted to see if this could be the right compact cinema video camera, delivering high-quality video up to 7K that would work not only for content creation and brand videos but also for some indie filmmaking projects.

Imagine your editing workflow being enhanced by something that resembles the controllers you once played video games with. That, plus customizable efficiency, is what this editing console offers.

Recently, I had the chance to go hands-on with the Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 zoom lens to see exactly who this lens is for and if it is something that would fit into my existing workflow and maybe make it better. 

Today, I'll have a look at the new Laowa CF 4.5-10mm f/2.8 Fisheye Zoom and share a few thoughts.

Chargers are the gear no one thinks about — at least until there is a need. Anker sent their Anker Prime Charging Station (8-in-1, 240W), a smart charger with app control. Who might benefit from this? And why might they need app control?

Sony just released a camera that outperforms their own flagship model and costs $2,000 less. That's not a headline you expect to write, but here we are.

Sony has officially announced the new FE 100-400mm f/4.5 GM OSS, a super-telephoto zoom designed for wildlife, birding, sports, and photojournalism work.

Today, I'll have a quick look at the new Allen Smart Suction Snap Camera Mount. It's a tool designed for mounting compact mirrorless cameras, action cams, and smaller DSLRs to smooth surfaces via a suction cup that can deliver dynamic moving shots.

APS-C cameras are quickly becoming the main choice for everyday photography. I've owned a Nikon Z50 for seven years now, and it's still my favorite everyday camera, especially for travel, street, and urban photography. But finding lenses for it has always been a problem.

My first impression when pulling Freewell's latest filter kit offering out of its packaging was how small and light it was. Filter kits tend to be bulky and take up lots of space, often housed in boxes that take up valuable space in camera bags too. They can be a nuisance to lug around. Not this kit. I immediately liked it.

The Nano-X Pro filter system proves there's still a place for those who try to get it right in camera.

Want to reclaim your desk space and maybe even reduce the pain in your neck by optimizing your viewing angle? Consider a monitor arm. Here, we take a look at the HUANUO FlowLift™ Single Monitor Mount (formerly SS6, but still model HNSS6). I also discuss the HUANUO Universal VESA Mount Adapter Kit (Model HNMUA4), which was needed for my particular monitor. How well did they work? How easy were they to install?

Since the debut of the first Osmo Pocket series, launched seven years ago, it has quickly grown its user base with its one-of-a-kind design, tapping into a niche market segment by offering quality stabilized video at a pocketable size. While it wasn't perfect back then, it offered an innovative solution for the market's pain point, and it's commendable that they took the risk to do things out of the norm. Fast forward to 2026, the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 is currently at its 4th iteration of product development, keeping the same design language. Building on the success of its predecessor, it now offers enhanced imaging capabilities and further refinements to its user experience.

This isn't just another third party lens for your mirrorless camera. This new lens focuses (pun intended) not just on aiding the shooting process but even more so on delivering quality images.

The nifty fifty has earned its reputation as the go-to standard prime, but the Viltrox 55mm f/1.8 EVO feels like a quiet refinement of that formula. Just a 5mm shift in focal length is enough to change how you see and compose a scene. After testing the new Z mount variety on location, the quality of this lens becomes clear.

It has been a long time since I felt genuinely excited about a tripod and gear head, mainly because this segment of the industry has felt largely stagnant.

If you're trying to choose between the original Pentax 645 and the Mamiya M645 1000S, you're not really asking about features. You're asking which one will make your portraits and landscapes look the way you want.

At now 6 years old, is this compact retro camera still usable for photographers in today's day and age? We are of course talking about the original Fujifilm X-T30, which has become in fact my new favorite travel camera.

When it comes to branding, there are a number of elements that need to be considered. It needs to speak about your business while also evoking something in the viewer. It doesn't necessarily need to clearly explain what you do.

Most editing tools promise to speed up your workflow. Very few actually change how you work. After testing the Ulanzi D200X and Dial in real-world use, I wanted to see if either could genuinely reduce time at the desk or if they just add another layer to the process.

From the naming convention, the Mate series flagship smartphone has always been Huawei's way of showing off what they can really do, and it has been three years since Huawei launched the Mate series globally. This time around with the Huawei Mate 80 Pro, everything revolves around a rather bold slogan: "See It True." 

I have now tried both the Canon 28-70mm f/2 lens and the Canon 24-105mm f/2.8 to see which is better and where I would recommend each of these lenses. I'm just trying to answer the question of which one is right for me, and hopefully in doing so I'm able to also help you identify which one might be right for you.

The Kodak Snapic A1 is a lot of fun. I've been using this slimline 35mm film camera for the last three months, taking it everywhere with me — including on a two-week holiday to Japan. In this article I'll tell you why it's so fun, sharing highlights from my first five rolls.

Artificial intelligence is transforming creative workflows across countless industries, including photography. From automated writing assistants to advanced image generators, there's now an AI tool for almost every task imaginable. While many AI platforms offer broad capabilities, relatively few are tailored to the specific demands of real estate photography. In a market where speed, accuracy, and visual consistency are critical, purpose-built solutions are required, and Fotello is positioning itself as one of the leading options in this space.
