Samyang has announced its newest Sony E mount autofocus cinema prime lens. It’s the Samyang V-AF 100mm T2.3 (buy here). As an FE lens, it’s designed for full-frame cameras and rounds out Samyang’s V-AF lens lineup quite nicely.

The original five-lens lineup launched in September 2022 covering 20mm, 24mm, 35mm, 45mm and 75mm focal lengths at T1.9. Their reception since then has been very warm, with users remarking on their speed.

One of the great things about a lot of small sensor cameras is that they’re available in multiple flavours. Most webcams, for example, see both visible light and infrared at night. The Raspberry Pi cameras are the same.

In this video, John Irvin takes one of those small infrared camera modules and a Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+ (buy here) and bundles them up into a night vision camera. It sports a 5″ display and has a compact wireless keyboard.

I know, I know, cameras don’t take photos, photographers do. But they operate cameras and take fantastic shots with them. Electronics Hub conducted an interesting study to learn about the most loved photos and the cameras used to take them.

They analyzed over 1.1 million photos on Flickr, tagged under different genres like architecture, portrait, landscape, fashion, wildlife, and food. The aim was to identify which camera brands and models receive the most “faves” on Flickr.

Meta, the company that owns Facebook and Instagram, has announced a new lineup of AI tools. Some appear to be rolling out immediately. Others are coming over time. Amongst them is a standalone version of Imagine, Meta’s AI image generation tool.

Imagine has so far been limited to Messenger. The new update brings it out as its own tool. It’s launching now for users in the USA. The company hasn’t said when it’ll roll out to the rest of the world, but I expect it’ll come in time.

Panasonic Japan has announced a new Lumix DC-G100D. It’s an incremental upgrade over the Panasonic G100 (buy here), with an enhanced EVF and a USB-C socket for charging batteries inside the camera.

The press release doesn’t specifically mention the EU laws which recently forced Apple to switch its iPhones to USB-C. However, it’s likely a motivator for the change as the Panasonic G100 (buy here) doesn’t include a separate dedicated charger.

Created in Bolivia in 2023, these two images were made with the ambitious intention of having a diptych representing opposite moments, giant Sunset & giant Moonset: Two moments outlining the perimeters of the night.

Same location, same focal length, same creators. 12h or so apart between the two images, and only a few seconds to get the alignment of the celestial body right. At 3700m altitude, below freezing point.

Single 8mm film resurrected from the dead by open source project

Single 8mm is the lesser-known cousin of the popular Super 8mm format. It was Japanese company Fujifilm’s answer to Kodak’s Super 8. Fujifilm hasn’t made Single 8 film since 2012, though, and there are still a lot of cameras out there.

Jenny List has been tackling this issue by designing her own Single 8 film cartridges. And they’re a drop-in replacement for the original cartridges. Jenny has been documenting the design process on YouTube.
