The future moves closer to reality: Google recently unleashed its inner Evel Knievel in a stunt-filled demonstration of its secretive futuristic computerized glasses. Google co-founder Sergey Brin ran onstage in San Francisco sporting a prototype of the Orwellian device, asking, “Who wants to see a demo of Glass?” The crowd roared, “Yes!” Google Glass — […]

Today’s Daily Portfolio by Tony Edenden is not your average portfolio. It comes as an iOS app for iPhone and iPad. Passer-By is the name of the app that brings you some 160 black-and-white pictures. They’re funny, sad and just plain odd, says photographer Tony who’ll tell you why he’s pleased to work with the […]
We’re a photography site, but as the iPhone dramatically changed the way people take pictures this can very well pass as a photography post. iPhoneography is a photography game changer, just to mention the myriad of apps that can give you a DSLR look shot with a smartphone. Word on the street is is the […]
Chances are that already in your childhood you used an electronic product made by Sharp. Today the Japanese multinational produces about anything electronic you can imagine, such as LCD panels, solar panels, mobile phones, entertainment equipment, video projectors, printers, microwave ovens, air conditioners, cash registers, flash memory — and even CCD and CMOS sensors. This […]
It’s an easy way out to add that certain je ne sais quoi to images: bokeh. What looked flat and lost in an unattractive background suddenly looks nicer. Now here’s the challenge: Do you ever try, intentionally, to avoid bokeh altogether? Look at the world’s most famous photographers. They’re not after nice bokeh. Especially if […]
This lens, at this price, size and quality, is an absolute no-brainer. And — if you ask me — a sign of things to come. Well the new Canon 40mm F2.8 pancake might indeed say something about Canon’s upcoming mirrorless camera system entry. EF mount? Most likely not. But there’s always an adapter. This unique […]
By MANFRED RIST, PARIS CORRESPONDENT NZZ France Soir fades away. The publication, a French media icon of the past, announced last December that it will stop printing and instead focus on an online version. Even that, it seems, was wishful thinking. By the end of the summer, we expect the title will be gone altogether. […]

The world has become one big, giant “Big Brother is watching you.” Major cities have thousands and thousands of security cameras installed. It’s even impossible to analyze all the footage. Most of it remains unseen and gets forgotten in the abyss of huge, endless storage devices. But wait! Someone other than police and security forces […]

Stefan Daniel, head of product management at Leica, sat down with THEME to talk about Leica of the past, present and future. You’ll understand that Mr. Daniel can’t give specific answers to the questions we all want to be answered, such as “What about the M10,” “Leica’s rumored compact system camera,” and so forth. Expecting […]
At least they give their cameras different names. But in principle they’re releasing very similar products at very similar times. Copycats. Just take the recent release of the Canon 5D Mark III and the Nikon D800. They were announced within not even a month. Now the next battle of similar market targets is looming. We […]
It’s a tough world out there. Especially in the world of stock photography. That calls for innovation. Feast is such a child of competition and trade rivalry. An ingenious child, created by stock photography market leader iStockphoto. But what the heck is Feast? That’s not so easy. It’s photography, basically, but a challenge to one’s […]

The recent spate of smaller and smaller and more and more powerful cameras has brought forth new talk about sensor sizes. Let’s assume sensor size does matter — or doesn’t it? Or only conditionally?

It’s a camera that looks like others, but the big difference is it’s large sensor. As […]
