The timeless Olympus PEN-F camera got a successor. Decent, we can say from what we have seen. What the 911 is to Porsche, the PEN family is to Olympus. The original PEN-F camera was first released way back in 1963 and quickly became a bestseller with its beautiful yet simple design. Now, 53 years later, the PEN-F is back. The digital reincarnation or upgrade of the eponymous fifty-three-year-old is a mixture of a compact camera and a recognizable design that has accompanied Olympus for 80 years.
Nikon is designing a compact camera that has four lenses! The idea is not entirely new, because last year we already wrote about the Light L16 camera, which has 16 individual lenses built into the housing, which are divided into different groups with different focal lengths (between 35 and 15 mm). In July 2016, the company also successfully raised funds to start production, and now we have discovered that Nikon is also planning something similar, planning a compact camera with four separate lenses and sensors in a single body.
Phone cameras are getting better and better, and fewer and fewer people are using traditional cameras... and not just because a standard SLR (single-lens reflex) doesn't have the ability to instantly upload shots to Instagram. "Old fashioned" cameras are thus forced to stand out. How about about 24 karat gold and a case made from the skin of a rare marine animal?
For Yashica, it all started way back in 1949 in Nagano, Japan, where they initially manufactured electronic parts for watches. The era of cameras followed, and they achieved their greatest success 16 years later with the Electro 35 model, which sold as many as 8 million copies. Then, in the 1980s, the brand was bought by larger companies and the trail was slowly lost. But now they are coming back. With a Kickstarter campaign, they want to coax the legendary Electro 35 genie out of the bottle. In a modern guise, of course.
Anyone who thought that the concept of the Polaroid had survived was seriously mistaken. They experience the second spring like digital cameras. The latest to venture into the world of Polaroids is the famous Leica, which introduced the Leica Sofort camera with the option of instant photo printing. It is a high-end camera, dressed in a plastic body in orange, white or mint color.
As early as 1890, the Kodak company launched its first camera, called the Brownie. With the sales slogan "You press the button, we do the rest", the company brought photography closer to the masses. The Relonch 291 digital camera takes this slogan literally. We simply press the trigger, and artificial intelligence does everything else - it selects the best, processes them if necessary, stores them and gets rid of the bad ones. Trotlziher 2.0!
Many cameras are capable of photographing the night sky, but few are designed specifically for night photography. One such is the Tiny1, a compact camera with a sensor that excels especially in low-light conditions, which is certainly the case at night. And why is it a must-have piece of equipment for all astrologers and skywatchers? If you've ever tried to capture the night sky with a compact camera or phone, you know it's a pretty pointless endeavor. But not with the handy Tiny1 camera.
In addition to Chuck Norris, even the shipwrecked Tom Hanks would certainly like the company of a quality and durable Olympus Tough camera in addition to his faithful friend Wilson! TG-5. Thus, all his survival techniques would be well documented and even in HD technology.
