Can the 100th anniversary of Pentax be the last day of this brand?
I started with my Dad's old Pentax Spotmatic in the 80s and I still prefer Pentax cameras like the MX, ME-Super, P30N etc for shooting film. They are hard to beat for portability and reliability. I never took to the Pentax digital line as I sta…

Coolpix W150 Limited Proper Edition
Finally, a product that is in touch with reality... well, actually my 8 year old daughter said she wouldn't buy it.

SIGMA fp Cinema Camera with CinemaDNG raw
With all the 'Dedicated accessories', they should make the body cheap, to get people to buy into the 'modular system'. My guess is, it has to be less than $1500, maybe even $1200 to start. As I've said before, it won't …

Panasonic feels good, but not in cameras department
So we will be left with Sony and a stripped down Canon and one 'niche' camera maker, possibly Panasonic or Fuji? And within those survivors we will see stripped down product lines? 2-3 cameras at most? Similar to @kinvermark, I have gotte…

Is it me or does some of their line look like rebranded products from other manufacturers?

Nikon Z6 and Z7 sales are also bad, B&H throw more free stuff
Camera issues aside, I guess the potential buyers are 55+ aged guys with who already have 4 or 5 Nikon bodies (at least 1 full frame) and a bunch of lenses and are getting old so they mostly carry around a phone or RX100. There is simply not much ne…

Strange Noise Cancellation Device
In the video it sounds like they are using a sine wave, which is a single frequency and is technically not noise. I would like to hear this material work with a real noise source, like a pink noise signal or even some normal sounds.

Deity V-mic D3 Pro and D3 Microphones
@Vitaliy The audio quality should be the same on both, yes? I want the regular D3 to be able to change the battery and I don't feel like I need to adjust the levels on the mic.

Deity V-mic D3 Pro and D3 Microphones
I think I will be ordering the D3. I'm more or less satisfied with my Rode NTG-2, except that it's too large to be an on camera mic. The D3 looks much small and I guess will deliver similar performance.

Really working NN face generator
They should make an anonymous test to see how well people can tell the difference between the "real" and generated subjects. When I first looked at the generated faces they seemed believable, but then the closer I looked, I noticed somethi…

Looks solid. Price needs to be around $300 to compete with Tascam, Zoom etc... looking forward to some audio tests.

Flickr to share Vimeo fate and will go out of business soon
@eatstoomuchjam Exactly. It basically means "Free" users will not qualify for 'Explore'. They should just go the whole 9 yards and require that only "Pro" members and create, moderate and contribute to groups as well.

What's the point of not offering tiered options? Is it really impossible for them to offer something in between "free" and and "full"? I also don't need 1TB, but $20 per year is reasonable to keep it as a social platfor…

I'm not sure what that guy is on about. I've tried a number of mics on my G80 and I don't get that noise. Maybe he's running a line signal from a recorder that's plugged in to a wall socket? The only noise I get is a soft &#…
