  • 16 February, 2014 – Panasonic GM1 Field Report

    The new Panasonic GM1 is a tour-de-force of miniaturization. It takes most of the capabilities of the GX7 and squeezes them into a body smaller than just about any interchangeable lens camera ever made. But, is this a "good thing"? Find out in Michael’s hands-on report from Antarctica and Chile.

  • 27 December, 2013 – Field Review – Zeiss Touit 12mm lens

     All of us at Luminous-Landscape hope you had a good holiday.  In less than a week we start a new year and you can count on new articles, reviews and videos as well as a new line up of workshops.

    Legendary glass maker Zeiss has gotten a lot of attention in the last few years as they started to make lenses for the DSLR camera systems.  They didn’t miss a beat when it came to the APS-C sensor category either. Earlier this year they released two lenses with the family name of Touit. The two new lenses are a 12mm 2.8 and a 32mm 1.8 for the Fuji X system and the Sony NEX cameras.  Today’s article by István Nagy takes a closer look at the Zeiss Touit 12mm lens.  There are plenty of reviews of this lens out there but István takes a look at the lens in real world use. Read . . . Field Testing the Zeiss Touit 12mm f/2.8 Lens

    If you are a Fuji X system user and you haven’t heard, there is now new firmware updates available for the X-Pro1 as well as most of the lenses.  This is a nice update and you should visit the Fuji Update page to learn more.  You’ll also be able to update your lenses.  Fuji also updated firmware on the original X100.  We have to give Fuji Kudos for keeping there cameras updated with the latest firmware features.

  • 21 September, 2013 – Final Instalment of Olympus OM-D E-M1 Field Report from Paris

    The week is up, and my trip to Paris and testing of the new Olympus OM-D E-M1 has drawn to a close.

    The full report is now online.

     

    "Having been to Antarctica with Michael and Kevin, I would say after having traveled the world and shot nearly my entire life as an exhibiting photographer,  it was one of my highlights in my life and I talk about it, all the time.  The images and experience of seeing something visionary and nearly extinct from the world, to see and experience the wildlife and scenery that does not fear humans is amazing.  The images I shot there won me two Smithsonian awards and nearly 18 other international awards". – Tim Wolcott

  • Getting Aerial: Mark di Suvero at Crissy Field

    I’ve been tinkering with aerial photography and videography since NAB in April. Unfortunately where I live the wind can make the experience risky. Still this past weekend I decided to brave the America’s cup crowds at Crissy Field and get an alternate view of the Mark di Suvero sculpture exhibit. I look forward to getting a little more air time the next time the winds die down.

  • 16 September, 2013 – Olympus OM-D E-M1 Field Report from Paris

    Micro Four Thirds is heating up. Panasonic’s GX7 has a lot of people excited, but last week Olympus announced the OM-D E-M1, its latest flagship camera.

    I have received a review sample, just prior to my leaving for a week-long vacation in Paris, France. The E-M1 will therefore be the subject of a daily blog here on this site. Check in every day for updates.

  • 13 September, 2013 – Panasonic GX7 Field Report

    Though Compact System Cameras, including MFT, remain underdogs in North America and European markets, this is currently the segment with the most innovation.

    I recently had an opportunity to work for a week in Mexico with the new Panasonic GX7 – shipping very soon – and found it to be the best MFT camera yet. Both stills image quality and video capability are first rate.

    My Field Report on the Panasonic GX7 is now online.

  • 18 August, 2013 – Panasonic FZ70 Field Report

    I received two new cameras for testing recently, the Panasonic GX7 and the Panasonic FX70. The GX7 is coming with me to Mexico on vacation this week, and I’ll be putting it through its paces there with a variety of lenses, shooting both stills and video.

    My review of Panasonic’s latest superzoom, the FZ70 is now online.

    kaleidocam.png

    A prototype for a new DSLR add-on is poised to bring plenoptic capabilities to consumer cameras. The KaleidoCamera is designed to sit between a standard DSLR’s sensor and lens. A diffuser splits light passing through the lens into nine different beams, each passing through a filter before it reaches the camera’s sensor. Click through to read on about this prototype’s capabilities and potential applications.
