Sony Polarization Image Sensor Technology

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 7, 2020


Sony released information about its Polarization Image Sensor Technology as part of its Sony Technology Day Report. While this isn’t a photography camera sensor many technologies like this from smaller sensors like camera phones make it to Sony photography sensors at some point so we might see this technology in the future.

Image sensors and the algorithms behind them continue to get better and better, but now Sony seems to be putting more physical features on the sensor. We might even see this technology in smartphones before we see it on a camera since it is difficult to use filters on smartphones.

Samyang AF 75mm f/1.8 FE Review

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 5, 2020


Photography blog reviewed the Samyang AF 75mm f/1.8 FE and came away impressed calling it highly recommended with an overall 4.5 star rating. Below is a summary and you can read the full review here.

The new Samyang AF 75mm f/1.8 FE is a remarkably small and compact short-telephoto lens that’s both super-sharp and capable of delivering some delicious bokeh, all at a price that seriously undercuts its main rivals. It doesn’t feature any degree of weather-proofing, and the auto-focusing system isn’t quite as snappy as Sony’s native alternatives, but otherwise there’s very little to complain about, and lots to like.

Sony a9II vs Canon EOS-1DX Mark III: Rolling Shutter, AF Comparison, and Face Recognition (Sony Still Wins)

By Louis Ferreira | Published: May 4, 2020

Canon and Nikon have cameras coming to compete with the Sony a9II and so far it seems like the Canon EOS-1D X Mark III can’t keep up with the older Sony a9II. This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise since Sony moved far out from technologically with the Sony a9 and a7 line of cameras this past year, but could Canon catch up with firmware updates?
