Significant Samsung T7 4TB Rugged Savings

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 22, 2023


SSD discounts have been pretty good this year, but this one shouldn’t be missed if you need to transfer files quickly or want to take a large Lightroom library with you on location. The Samsung T7 4TB Rugged is currently discounted at Amazon / B&H Photo / Adorama and can be used on Mac or PC. I bought two myself because the 1TB SSDs I have been collecting are becoming a bit limiting and I bought them around this price point. It’s nice to see the price of large SSDs come down some finally.

Camera Grand Prix 2023 Camera of the Year

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 18, 2023


Sony a7RV:B&H Photo / Amazon / Moment / Adorama

Camera of the Year Sony a7RV
Reasons for choice
The latest generation of the “R” series, which enables high-definition shooting even among Sony’s α7 series, adopts a class-leading effective 61 million-pixel CMOS sensor. It has received praise for significantly improving basic performance, such as autofocus performance and color reproduction, through the newly introduced “AI processing unit” and enhancing the image stabilization mechanism, making it easier to demonstrate the potential of a high-resolution camera in a wide range of shooting scenes. Additionally, comments have been received that the adoption of a 4-axis multi-angle LCD monitor that supports both tilt and vari-angle on the back of the camera has presented a new standard that meets the requirements of both still images and videos.
