She can’t remember things like she used to. It started gradually-she’d forget a name or a birthday or where she parked her car. And then, she found herself forgetting every day things, those things one must remember in order to live life. She would forget to go to the grocery store; she’d forget a conversation that occurred ten minutes earlier; she would forget to eat dinner. They call it Dementia, and it is, although the word is more of an umbrella term that covers many types of memory loss....

With smartphone cameras getting better and more widely used, there are more and more accessories for mobile photography on the market. Profoto has decided to jump on the bandwagon and it has just announced two pocket-sized speedlights. Profoto C1 and C1 Plus are aimed at smartphone photographers, and these tiny, yet powerful lights can fit a palm of your hand. Both lights are controlled through a dedicated mobile app, and also compatible with all Profoto AirTTL remotes....

There are a lot of 3D printed accessories out there for photography and filmmaking. One of the more popular items that people print are lens caps. There are quite a lot of different lens cap designs out there, but most of them have one big problem. They’re entirely 3D printed, including any spring mechanism to lock them onto your lens. Depending on the material you print with, such as ABS, PETG or perhaps Nylon, this might never be a problem....

While checking my emails this morning, I saw an email from Instagram telling me they’re sorry to hear I was having trouble logging in. The address from which the email was sent seemed legit, and so did the body of the message. But the thing is – I didn’t have trouble logging in. So, instead of clicking on the link provided, I did a little research. It turns out that there has been a highly believable phishing scam going around....

Winner of multiple Oscars, BAFTAs and SAG awards, Apollo 13 was a pretty epic movie. And with a budget of $52 million it had some pretty spectacular effects, too. Apollo 13 was a mix of model and miniature effects as well as CG and compositing, with one of the most memorable scenes being the launch itself. DIY filmmaking and effects guru Steve Ramsden wanted to have a go at remaking this scene for himself with the help of a model rocket, some stock footage and Google Earth....

A new teaser has popped up on the DJI website for… I don’t know what. Something. Possibly the rumoured new DJI Action Camera, possibly something completely different. Launching with the slogan “Unleash your other side“, whatever it is will be coming in five days and 20 hours. Assuming it’s not just illustrative and metaphorical, the picture on the new teaser page suggests that it is possibly something that can be used underwater....

We’ve shown you some amazing colorization and restoration work before. But if you are a baseball fan, you will definitely love the series we’re about to show you today. Chris Whitehouse is a sports lover and a photo restoration and colorization artist. He brings his two passions together, and as a result, he breathes a new life into century-old photos of Major League baseball players and games. Using Photoshop and lots of patience, skill, and research, he teleports us to the baseball fields from 100 years ago and creates a new look on the history of sports....

My favorite thing to do when riding on a train is looking out the window and fantasizing while listening to music. I haven’t ridden on a train in ages, so this Jason Shron’s video brought back the memories. It shows you the world from inside a train as it slowly glides along the tracks. But there’s a fun twist: that’s not a real train, and neither is the world around it....

Samsung’s ads, for years, have often been trolling at the expense of Apple. Whether it’s the notch, the whole Batterygate thing, or removing the headphone jack, Samsung just takes every opportunity to have a go at Apple or Apple owners in its marketing. Well, since the announcement of the new Galaxy Note10 and Galaxy Note10+ smartphones, which also appear to be missing the headphone jack, Samsung has quietly deleted those ads mocking Apple for doing the same....

It’s been 3 years since the giant, more than 36 000-ton New Safe Confinement, better known as the Arch, was put over the old sarcophagus, which was damaged and collapsing. In a way, this symbolic moment also summed up my 10 years of work documenting the Chernobyl Zone, which result in the release of the photo album HALF-LIFE: from Chernobyl to Fukushima. However, just as the building of the new sarcophagus did not finish the work inside related to eliminating the radioactive threat, I still have a reason to come here....

Earlier this month, a tragedy occurred while two people were trying to take a selfie in India. A man was posing near the Ib river’s rapids when he lost his balance and accidentally pushed a woman into the river, sending her straight to her death. The accident occurred near Kanakunda in Odisha on 3 January. The woman Nirupama Prajapati was taking a selfie near the Ib river, and so was the man who slipped and pushed her....

When you want to shoot a passion project, a low budget can often be an obstacle, for both filmmakers and photographers. But there are ways to overcome it and bring your project to life even if the money is tight. In this video, Sherif Mokbel of THE DP JOURNEY shares seven tips for shooting with the budget as low as zero. He focuses on filmmaking and shares examples from his own and other filmmakers’ videos for even more inspiration....

Recently, I was tasked with shooting a hotrod. It was exciting from the beginning, because these kinds of cars are pretty rare here. The owner also wanted his dog sitting on the fender. When you hear that (from a photographer’s point of view), it does not sound that difficult to do. But the picture also has to be huge – 100 megapixel are too few. Three times of that is the minimum requirement for the print....

Most cameras are rated at somewhere between 100,000 and 300,000 shutter actuations. And no matter which DLSR or mirrorless camera you have, it will eventually die. Now, timelapse photography makes you press that shutter way more often than doing any other type of photography. Does this mean your camera will die faster? And should you care about it? In his latest video, Matthew Vandeputte addresses some of these concerns....

DPReview recently had a chance to have a video call and a bit of a chat with Sigma CEO Kazuto Yamaki. In the interview, a number of topics are touched on, including Mr Yamaki’s vision for the future of the company, compatibility with mirrorless camera systems other than L and E mount, and various other things. One thing briefly spoken about was what’s happening with the long-awaited full-frame Foveon mirrorless camera, initially announced in 2018 and put on indefinite hold in 2020....

Sigma Japan has just posted an upcoming Sigma Stage product announcement to their website and YouTube channel. Scheduled for Wednesday, August 4th, there are no hints as to exactly what will be announced, but I think it’s possibly a safe bet to say that it’ll probably be the Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DN DG OS Sports lens for Leica L and Sony E mounts. The event is expected to begin on August 4th at 9pm Japan Standard Time....

Not long ago, it was rumored that Snap Inc. would come up with a “new and improved” version of Spectacles. And now it’s official: Snap doesn’t want to give up the camera sunglasses, so they have just released the second version of Spectacles for sale. The new model has some improvements over the previous one, but the price has gone up a bit as well. Snap hopes you’ll wear these to the beach and in other adventures, but unless you have Snapchat – I’m not so sure you’d want them....

It appears that Sony has now officially discontinued the Sony A6300 and A6500 APS-C mirrorless cameras. Both bodies have disappeared from Sony’s list of interchangeable lens APS-C E mount cameras, and both bodies are also being listed as discontinued on the B&H website. According to a new rumour, it appears that Sony is preparing to launch a new APS-C camera, though, that looks like it might replace both of the discontinued cameras along with the A6600, offering a similar form factor but with “vlogger” features from the Sony ZV-1 and Sony A7c....

Sony has launched a teaser image for a “new concept” camera that’s being announced on September 15th – just one week from today. It’s been expected that Sony will launch another new full-frame camera at some point this month. Originally expected to be an A5 or A6, but now it appears that it may be called the A7c. Other than the information shown in the screenshot above, there isn’t anything official yet....

Hot on the heels of ProGrade Digital’s CFexpress announcement, Sony, too has announced that new CFexpress cards are coming. While Sony’s cards don’t come in the same high 1TB capacity as the ProGrade cards, they are even faster, offering up to 1700MB/sec read and 1480MB/sec write speeds. They’re also built to be rugged, falling under Sony’s “Tough” line of memory cards. Using the same form factor as XQD, CFexpress is set to become the new standard as the successor to both CFast and a drop-in replacement for XQD compatible devices – once the manufacturers of those devices release new firmware to support it....
