Chinese optical manufacturer Anhui ChangGeng Optical Technology Company Limited, or Venus Optics, has released more details of a forth-coming lens it claims will be the widest rectilinear F2 for the Micro Four Thirds system. The Laowa 7.5mm F2 MFT was first seen at Photokina last year, and will offer the 110° angle of view we’d expect from a 15mm lens on a full-frame camera and will be available in two versions – a standard model that will weigh 200g / 7oz and a lightweight model that will tip the scales at 150g / 5.3oz.

Both versions of the lens will feature 13 elements in 9 groups and will use a pair of aspheric elements and three in extra-low dispersion glass. The company has stopped short of using the ‘Zero-D’ designation it applies to the Laowa 12mm F2.8 and its previously announced 15mm F2, but does claim to have minimized distortion, as well as chromatic aberrations.

The 7.5mm lens will have a 46mm filter thread, a closest focusing distance of 12cm / 4.7in, a 7-bladed iris and will be 55mm long. The lightweight version has been designed with drones in mind, will use lighter metals than the standard version and will cost $ 519 plus tax instead of $ 499. Black or silver options are available. The standard model will be shipping this month with the lightweight model following in July. For more full specification and pre-order information visit the Venus Optics website.

Serious spec: HTC 10 camera review

17 Jun

$ (document).ready(function() { SampleGalleryV2({“containerId”:”embeddedSampleGallery_0316148631″,”galleryId”:”0316148631″,”isEmbeddedWidget”:true,”standalone”:false,”selectedImageIndex”:0,”startInCommentsView”:false,”isMobile”:false}) });

DPReview smartphone reviews are written with the needs of photographers in mind. We focus on camera features, performance, and image quality.

The 10 is HTC’s latest flagship model, and while its predecessors that we tested were frankly disappointing in the camera department, the new model’s imaging specs show the 10 has potential to turn things around for the Taiwanese manufacturer.

The main camera specification is centered around the same 1/2.3-inch 12MP sensor that we have seen on several recent top-end smartphones. Light is captured through a very fast F1.8 aperture and an optical image stabilization system keeps things steady in low light. The AF uses both contrast detection and a laser that measures the distance to the subject and for those who like optimizing images in post production the camera offers a 12-bit Raw mode. In video mode footage can be recorded in 4K resolution and the front camera is the first of its kind to come with optical image stabilization. At 1.34µm it also offers unusually large pixels and again a fast F1.8 aperture. 

All other specifications, including the 5.2-inch Quad-HD display and Snapdragon 820 chipset are in line with the current crop of flagship devices, making the HTC 10 a possible mobile photography alternative to devices like the Samsung Galaxy S7 or LG G5. Read the full review to find out how it performed in our test.
