UV filters, they’re definitely a topic of much debate and little consensus. However, Roger at Lensrentals.com has written a great article about why you should never put a cheap UV/Clear filter on a good lens.</p>
<p><strong>From Roger at Lensrentals.com:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Yes, I’m sick of filter articles, too. But I come today not to educate you, but to mock others. Because yes, people continue to try to save a few bucks by putting a cheap filter in front of their $1,000 lens. And also because they buy what they think are good filters off of Fleabay or some used place and these filters aren’t what they think. This can particularly happen when you purchase a brand that makes different filters of differing quality.</p>
<p>How bad can it be, you ask? Well, today we’ll show you. Because someone had a <a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=nQhWgvN5bco&subid=&offerid=493986.1&type=10&tmpid=24414&RD_PARM1=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lensrentals.com%2Fsearch%3Fq%3D70-200mm%2Bf%252F2.8%2Blens" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">70-200mm f/2.8 lens</a> that had been nice and sharp and then returned it because it suddenly got soft. They were kind enough to return it with their protective filter in place.</p>
<p>So the first thing we did, as we always do, was put the lens on OLAF, which is simply an array of collimated 5-micron pinholes. A good lens should show and an array of small dots or circles. But this lens showed an array of glaring star flare thingies. <a href="https://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2017/05/yet-another-post-about-my-issues-with-uv-filters/">Read the full article</a></p></blockquote>

The Tough TG-5’s robust construction also withstands loads of up to 220 pounds of force. Reliable operation is assured down to 14°F, making it possible to use the camera in cold environments where other digital devices may fail. In addition, the Tough TG-5 features Dual Pane Protective Cover Glass over the lens, preventing condensation caused by sudden changes in ambient temperature.</p>
<p><strong>Video functions now include 4K Movie and Full HD 120fps High-Speed Movie.</strong>

The Tough TG-5’s 4K Movie makes it possible to shoot Ultra HD video at four times the resolution of Full HD video, ideal for recording beautiful scenery in amazing detail. Full HD 120fps High-Speed Movie is also included to capture split-second moments with playback in stunning slow motion.</p>
<p><strong>Other Features</strong></p>
<p><strong>1) Variable Macro System easily captures microscopic subjects.</strong>

The Tough TG-5 is equipped with four macro modes with a maximum shooting

magnification of 7x for capturing microscopic subjects difficult to see with the naked eye. Accessories such as the LG-1 LED Light Guide and the FD-1 Flash Diffuser expand shooting possibilities by enabling proper illumination of macro subjects.</p>
<p><strong>a) Four Specialized Macro Modes</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Microscope Mode: </strong>This mode allows users to shoot subjects as close as 1cm from the end of the lens and use the optical zoom to enlarge and shoot subjects. This feature is perfect for shooting insects, the veins in a leaf, snowflake crystals and other details in nature that cannot be seen with the naked eye.</li>
<li><strong>Microscope Control Mode:</strong> This mode uses a combination of optical and digital zoom to magnify and capture microscopic subjects. Users are able to magnify a subject that is only 1mm in size up to a maximum of approximately 44.4mm when displayed on the rear LCD monitor. In addition to switching the magnification factor with the zoom lever, the arrow pad may be used to switch between 1x, 2x and 4x with the press of a single button as if changing the objective lens on a real microscope.</li>
<li><strong>Focus Stacking Mode: </strong>Depth of field typically becomes shallow in macro shooting. Focus Stacking Mode automatically captures eight different shots while shifting the focus from the foreground to the background. Then, the focused areas are extracted and merged so that a full resolution image with large depth of field is created.</li>
<li><strong>Focus Bracketing Mode:</strong> This function captures up to 30 images while shifting the focus from the foreground to the background. Users can select the amount of focus shift and number of shots in three levels. Focus Bracketing Mode is convenient for focusing on low-contrast subjects such as flower petals that consist of a single color.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>2. Superb controls allow for smooth shooting even in rugged environments.</strong></p>
<p>The Tough TG-5’s grip’s shape and thickness have been improved to provide for a more secure hold, and the camera’s controls may be easily operated even while wearing gloves. A new control dial helps users easily adjust shooting settings such as exposure compensation. An Accessory Lock has been added to the front of the camera to secure Tough system accessories, including Tough converter lenses and the LG-1 LED Light Guide. Movie Modes are now readily accessible via the primary Mode Dial, and a variety of shooting settings may be registered to the two Custom Modes for instant use. Together, these features make the Tough TG-5 easy to use in any environment.</p>
<ul>

<em>Stacked CMOS Image Sensor that Combines High-Frame-Rate Imaging and High-Speed Sensing</em></p>
<p><strong>Tokyo, Japan</strong>—Sony Corporation today announced the release of the new IMX382 high-speed vision sensor, which enables detection and tracking of objects at 1,000 frames per second. Sony will begin shipping samples in October 2017.</p>
<p>This vision sensor features a stacked configuration with a back-illuminated pixel array and signal processing circuit layer. The circuit layer is equipped with image processing circuits and a programmable column-parallel processor, delivering high-speed target detection and tracking. This configuration enables high-sensitivity imaging thanks to the back-illuminated pixel array, with target detection and tracking at 1,000 frames per second. The new sensor uses information such as color and brightness obtained from pixels to detect objects, then extracts the object’s centroid, moment and motion vector, and finally outputs the information from the vision sensor in each frame.</p>

<p>This vision sensor has achieved imaging, target detection and tracking at 1,000 fps on a single chip. This not only expands the scope of application, but delivers new value that was difficult to obtain with conventional systems.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p>On past systems equipped with a 30 fps processing image sensor, it was not always possible to capture fast-moving objects and/or phenomena. At 1,000 fps, approximately 33 times faster in imaging speed than conventional chips, the new product can capture fast-moving objects and detect objects from image information, while using high-speed processing to extract information such as centroid, moment, and motion vector. Because the processing results can be output from the sensor in each frame, feedback to the system is faster than conventional methods. Delays in detecting anomalies or malfunctions in production lines at factories and other places can produce fatal results. However, this vision sensor makes it possible to instantly capture such events, so that orders can be issued quickly to stop the system.</p>
<p>Conventional industrial robots are normally operated by specifying motion coordinates using a program. Utilizing the high-speed tracking functionality of this vision sensor, however, enables real-time feedback to robots, enabling autonomous robot operation that is responsive to the movement and status of objects. This helps make robot teaching more efficient, contributing to improved productivity.</p>
<p>On conventional systems, the image processing required for detecting and tracking of objects has to be carried out at a later stage (on a computer, or other computing device). This vision sensor changes all that by delivering imaging, target detection and tracking image processing on a single chip. Not only does this make the later stage devices more compact and help to save overall system power; it also expands the new system development potential by eliminating certain physical limitations.</p>
<p>Timed with the sample shipping, Sony will also be providing evaluation kits. The evaluation kit consists of the camera and control software, making it easy to evaluate the sensor in diverse customer environments.</p>
<p>Sony is focusing intently on the sensing field and seeking to leverage its potential in the image sensor market. By integrating the imaging technology that it has developed over the years with sensing technologies that enable information acquisition and utilization, Sony strives to pioneer new applications and new markets for image sensors.</p>
<p><strong>Main Features</strong></p>
<p>1. Enables detection and tracking of targets at 1,000 frame per second</p>
<ul>
<li>The signal processing circuit layer on the bottom of the stacked configuration is equipped with image processing circuits and a programmable column-parallel processor, delivering high-speed target detection and tracking. This construction enables high-sensitivity imaging with back-illuminated pixel array and achieves target detection and tracking at 1,000 frames per second.</li>
<li>The new sensor uses information such as color and brightness obtained from pixels to detect objects, then extracts the object’s centroid, moment and motion vector, and finally outputs the information from the vision sensor as a signal in each frame.</li>
</ul>
<p>2. Built-in sensing function for a compact system and power savings</p>
<ul>
<li>The product achieves imaging and image processing on a single chip. Not only does this make for a more compact overall system and power savings; it also expands the new system development potential by eliminating certain physical limitations.</li>
<li>For system output, in addition to the image data output pathway the chip is also equipped with an output pathway solely for sensing information, so users can select between them for their particular application.</li>
</ul>
<p>3. Evaluation kit allows the sensor to be evaluated in diverse usage environments

The evaluation kit consists of a camera and software and is designed makes it easy to evaluate the sensor in a variety of customer usage environments.</p>

<strong>United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, 17 May 2017</strong> – A poll for Canon UK has named Roald Dahl as the greatest storyteller of all time.</p>
<ul class="c-circle-list">
<li>Roald Dahl has been named the greatest storyteller of all time, in a new poll</li>
<li>Canon on the hunt for a storyteller to spend a year identifying and living 365 new stories across the globe</li>
<li>Job of a lifetime applications being judged by famous storyteller, Zoë Kravitz</li>
</ul>
<p>Canon UK commissioned the research to mark the launch of its 365 Days of Summer competition to find a storyteller to spend a year identifying and living 365 new stories across the globe as part of its new Live For The Story brand positioning.</p>
<p>Roald Dahl, the creator of classics such as Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and James and the Giant Peach has topped the poll of the greatest authors, songwriters, artists and photographers. Visual storytellers including graffiti artist Banksy, Jurassic Park director Steven Spielberg and legendary cartoonist Walt Disney also featured in the top 50.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p>The research also showed a staggering 94 per cent of adults enjoy a good story with the average adult telling four stories a day, through words, conversation and with photos.</p>
<p>Matthew Searle – Country Director, Canon UK and Ireland said: “You can’t beat a good story, whether it’s words in a book, photographs, film or simply through conversation. Roald Dahl in particular may be well known for his words, but the images which accompanied many of his children’s books have helped to paint a picture for children for generations.</p>
<p>“As technology evolves, stories are now so much more than just the written word and people today have a variety of ways to tell their story and make sure it lives on. Whether they are to inform, relay a message or just to entertain, there are stories which will go on to be told for generations to come. At Canon we celebrate storytelling in all its forms and with the launch of our Live For The Story campaign we want to encourage people to tell their story and live every experience to the fullest no matter how insignificant.”</p>
<p>Canon is looking for someone to fill a very unique position as it begins its search for the ultimate storyteller. The lucky person will spend a year chasing summer across the globe in order to identify 365 inspiring stories. Applications for this unique role will be taken via Instagram and judged by actress, producer, musician and storyteller, Zoë Kravitz.</p>
<p>The successful candidate will chase summer all over the world, visiting destinations from Lisbon to Melbourne to Brazil, curating their own story of the summer.</p>
<p>Those who think they have what it takes to inspire people to find their own stories can apply by sharing their most memorable summer story on Instagram with the story behind it (no more than 50 words), tagging @CanonUK and #liveforthestory. Submissions will be judged on a number of elements including storytelling ability, visual appeal, originality and inspirational qualities. The successful candidate will be required to travel the world chasing summer in order to identify 365 inspiring stories throughout the course of the job. The role is all expenses paid and, of course, offers a holiday allowance of 365 days per annum.</p>
<p>Canon’s storyteller will be tasked with identifying 365 new summer stories throughout the year, bringing back the art of storytelling and inspiring people to make the most of every moment in their life. The journey they choose is for them to decide, it will be their story to create and inspire.</p>
<p>Matthew Searle – Country Director, Canon UK and Ireland said: “Every moment has the potential to be important, even more so in the summer when we are open to new challenges and experiences. We are on the hunt for someone to inspire us, to help us ‘Live For The Story’ every day and ensure none of us miss those special moments.”</p>

<a href="https://fstoppers.com/gear/sigma-135-f18-art-vs-zeiss-135-f2-milvus-176970">F-Stoppers</a> has posted a comparison of two new and higher end 135mm lens options. While the classic Canon EF 135mm f/2L is getting long in the tooth, other manufacturers have stepped forward, and in the case of the Sigma, perhaps even stepped up from the 20 year old Canon lens.</p>
<p>There are two big differences between the Sigma 135mm f/1.8 Art and the Zeiss Milvus 135mm f/2.</p>
<ol>
<li>Price, the Sigma is $1399 and the Zeiss is $2199 (The Canon is $999)</li>
<li>Autofocus, the Sigma has it, the Zeiss does not.</li>
</ol>
<p>Right off the bat for me, the manual focus 135mm f/2 from Zeiss would be out of the running, especially once you consider the $800 premium above the Sigma for it. Yes it’s built well and optically it’s stellar, but the Sigma is built pretty well, optically it’s great and the autofocus seems to be fast and accurate by most accounts. The $999 Canon 135mm f/2L should also be considered, because it is still a great lens, even if it was announced back in 1996.</p>
<p><strong>From F-Stoppers:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>In the end, I would be hard-pressed to tell you should absolutely buy the Zeiss over Sigma, despite the Zeiss being a phenomenal piece of glass. I believe Zeiss veterans will pick their champion without hesitation, mostly because the Big Z fanbase is quite the fanatic, devoted bunch and are attuned to the micro-details that make Zeiss lenses, well, Zeiss lenses. But anyone who simply wants a step up from the Canon 135 2.0L should almost certainly go with the Sigma. <a href="https://fstoppers.com/gear/sigma-135-f18-art-vs-zeiss-135-f2-milvus-176970">Read the full comparison</a></p></blockquote>

DPReview has completed their extensive review of the brand new Canon EOS M6 mirrorless camera.</p>
<p><strong>DPReview had this to say about the EOS M6:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Admittedly, if you’re not already bought into the Canon system, it is hard to ignore direct competitors that often pack in more features for similar money or similar feature for less; the EOS M6 ends up being a ‘premium’ option for those that really want it. Many of those rivals also have better-established lens ranges, if you don’t already have Canon lenses to adapt. But, in the end, if you do really want the EOS M6 you’ll be very happy with it: it’s a great camera in many respects. Even so, the lack of higher-end features combines with that premium price to keep the EOS M6 from earning our highest honors. <a href="https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canon-eos-m6">Read the full review</a></p></blockquote>
<p>We’ve spent some time recently with the EOS M5 and EOS M6 and we agree with what the reviewer is saying. If you’re already a Canon shooter, these new mirrorless bodies create a seamless transition between your DSLR and your compact camera system. If you’re not loyal to any brand or you’re coming from a fixed lens camera, there are probably better options out there for a lot of people.</p>
<span id="pty_trigger"></span>

Over the last couple of months we have received a lot communication about a full frame Canon mirrorless camera. This sort of talk has come and gone every since Sony entered the segment with the a7 series of cameras.</p>
<p>Here’s a breakdown of what we’ve been told, please mind the <a href="http://www.canonrumors.com/the-canon-rumors-rating-system-explained/">[CR1] rating</a>. Some of these talking points could be considered plausible.</p>
<ul>
<li>The goal is to announce a full frame mirrorless camera for Photokina 2018 which takes place in September of that year.</li>
<li>EF mount will be native</li>
<li>New exclusive image sensor for the camera.</li>
<li>New sensor technology required for the EF mount in a mirrorless application</li>
<li>There will be no new “dedicated” lenses, but mirrorless will be “considered in all future EF lens design”</li>
<li>4K video is considered a necessary feature in all full frame cameras going forward</li>
<li>One full frame mirrorless camera body to start</li>
<li>There is testing at Canon of a more hybrid approach between DSLRs and Mirrorless cameras. What that looks like we don’t know.</li>
</ul>
<p>We’ve received other information beyond what’s posted here, but most of it didn’t quite fit.</p>
<p>Some of this information can be backed up with some patents over the last 12-24 months and we have no doubt a full frame mirrorless camera from Canon is coming. However, we’ve always said EF lenses would have to work on the camera “natively” and that there won’t be another line of lenses developed for this application.</p>

Canon has updated the firmware on the Cinema EOS C300 Mark II camera.</p>
<p><strong>Firmware Version 1.0.7.1.00 incorporates the following fixes and enhancements:</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Fixes a phenomenon in which, depending on usage conditions, the camera freezes when a VPG130 CFast card is used simultaneously with a non VPG130 CFast card. *1</li>
<li>Adds a [-1] *3 option to the [Noise Reduction] setting under Custom Picture Settings to completely cancel the effects of noise reduction. *2</li>
<li>Fixes the panel light control mechanism of the viewfinder.</li>
</ol>
<p>*1 This applies to cameras equipped with Firmware Version 1.0.6.1.00</p>
<p>*2 This applies to cameras equipped with Firmware Version 1.0.4.1.00 – 1.0.6.1.00.</p>
<p>*3 On cameras equipped with Firmware Version 1.0.4.1.00 or later, even if the [Noise Reduction] setting is set to [Off], a small amount of noise reduction is still applied. If the [-1] setting is selected, no noise reduction is applied, so the amount of noise will increase compared to when the [Off] setting is selected. Furthermore, when displaying the metadata of clips captured with the [-1] setting using Canon XF Utility Ver. 2.1 – 3.2, the [Noise Reduction] setting will be displayed as blank.</p>

<p>The-Digital-Picture has completed their extensive review for the brand new Tamron 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5 Di II VC HLD lens. If you’re looking for a great wide angle option for your APS-C DSLR, you can’t go wrong with this new Tamron. I think the VC really separates it from Canon’s terrific EF-S 10-22 f/3.5-4.5.</p>
<p><strong>From The-Digital-Picture:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>The advantages of this lens start on the surface, with a great-to-handle shape and sharp looks. To get great images requires having a lens with you and the size and weight of this lens makes it easy to carry and comfortable to use for even long periods of time. Weather sealing is another advantage of the 10-24 VC, featuring a ready-for-whatever mindset by design. The image quality delivered by this lens competes well against the other options and when slow shutter speeds begin to adversely affect image quality, this lens’ excellent vibration compensation system will, by far, differentiate it from most of the crowd. <a href="http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Tamron-10-24mm-f-3.5-4.5-Di-II-VC-HLD-Lens.aspx">Read the full review</a></p></blockquote>

<span id="pty_trigger"></span>

<p><a href="http://www.the-digital-picture.com/News/News-Post.aspx?News=20563">According to TDP</a>, Canon Japan has officially discontinued three lenses in the EF lineup.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://bhpho.to/2r8S6tO">Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS</a> (Replaced by the <a href="https://bhpho.to/2omsLrx">EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II</a>)</li>
<li><a href="https://bhpho.to/2r8SA3a">Canon EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS USM</a> (Replaced by the <a href="https://bhpho.to/2pNHjkS">EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS II USM</a>)</li>
<li><a href="https://bhpho.to/2pNMl0T">Canon EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS DO USM</a> (No direct replacement)</li>
</ul>
<p>We haven’t heard anything about a new DO zoom lens coming down the pipeline. While I always liked the compact size of the little DO zoom, I never saw much point in using it over the Canon EF 70-300 f/4-5.6L IS, especially once you consider the L costs less and fits vertically in most camera backpacks to save space.</p>
<span id="pty_trigger"></span>

<p>We’re told that Canon continues active development of an EF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS.</p>
<p>At the time of the EF 24-70mm f/2.8L II development, there were prototypes with IS being tested alongside the non-IS version that was eventually released.</p>
<p>We’re told the previous development of an EF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS raised concerns about weight and size of the lens. Which makes some sense once you consider the target market, which is generally event photographers that have to carry and use the lens for 12 hours or more on some occasions.</p>
<p>This tells us that weight and size will have to be reduced before we see such a lens from Canon.</p>
<p>There is no known announcement date, and we doubt we’d see such a lens in 2017, but it’s good to know that development continues.</p>
