In an update to a very intriguing rumor that hit the airwaves a couple of weeks ago, CanonWatch is reporting that Canon will use a “moving sensor” to create the rumored “pro” EOS R camera with a hybrid EF/RF mount we originally mentioned here.

We’re told that Canon’s first foray into a full frame mirrorless camera will use a dedicated CMOS sensor and won’t be using either the EOS 6D Mark II or EOS 5D Mark IV image sensors. canonrumors.com »

Canon USA has launched a new line of printers called the PIXMA G-Series MegaTank. It’s the first line of PIXMA inkjet printers that use built-in refillable tanks rather than cartridges. The new lineup currently has 4 different models that differ slightly in size and specs: the G1200, G2200, G3200, and G4200. Each of the 4 […] petapixel.com »

We will be releasing an upcoming series of articles on infrared photography that I've been slowly working through the last few weeks, and this amusingly popped up in the list of patent applications published.
In this patent application (2024-019961) Canon shows off a high-speed stacked sensor using three substrate layers. As you can imagine, sensor layers are like a house, the more floors you have the more flexibility you have, and the more room.
Five years ago, the first thing manufacturers talked about when launching a new camera was the sensor. Megapixels made headlines along with backlit designs and sensor stacking. But, has all that changed? Looking at technical tests and rankings like those from DxO Mark, half of all the top ten full frame cameras are more than three years old.
More and more photographers are demanding durable cameras. But what they've also been asking for are brass cameras. The only brands to really do something like this in the past two decades have been Pentax and Leica.
A couple of patent applications caught my eye over the last week – and of course, with me traveling and living out of a suitcase right now I filed it in my head to revisit. These two patents show some unique pixel structures that we are not used to seeing from Canon.
Fujifilm X-H2 is a camera with one of the highest resolving APS-C sensors currently on the camera market. When you combine that with certain film simulations, photos will just look naturally sharper.
In the late 2000s, the camera industry had healthy competition that actually stood out from one another. The Nikon D700 and its relatives used 12MP sensors that tried to give the best high ISO output.
