Fujifilm X-E5 announced
This week, Fujifilm announced the X-E5 camera, which looks an awful lot like the (hard to find) X100vi rangefinder-style camera. The X-E5 offers a 40-megapixel APS-C X-Trans sensor and accepts interchangeable Fujifilm X-mount lenses. It’s being offered as a kit with a new 23mm f/2.8 pancake lens. We recommend pre-ordering now if you want to get this camera, as supply chains have been uncertain recently.
Choosing a camera backpack
This week, we’re taking a look at the features to consider (good and bad) when selecting a photo backpack. Backpacks are by far the most versatile type of camera bag, but not all of them are designed the same.

Fujifilm X Half Camera; Rick is back from Peru
This week, Rick returns from his trip to Peru and he’ll share his experiences along with the camera kit he chose for this trip. Plus, there’s a new “retro” camera from Fujifilm, the Fujifilm X Half. This camera only shoots JPEGs and can be configured to function like a mechanical film camera, including a film “advance” lever!

This week, we take a hands-on look at the newest version of the Nik Collection by DXO. The Nik Collection plug-ins remain one of our most often used tools for fine-art post-processing. We’ll take a look at what’s new, and discuss whether or not you should buy or upgrade.

OM System 100-400mm f/5-6.3 IS II Hands-on Testing
We recently received the newly updated OM System 100-400mm f/5-6.3 IS II lens to test from our friends at B&H Photo. We both like the original version of this lens, as it’s a lightweight (3lb) 200-800mm equivalent on micro 4/3 format cameras.
New features of the updated lens include:
- Better weather-sealing (IPX1 rated)
- Fluorine-coated front element
- Improved image stabilization
- SYNC-IS compatible with 5-axis stabilization up to 7-stops
- New lens collar
We both own the original version of this lens, so tune in to hear our thoughts about how the new one compares, and whether it’s worth upgrading.
