The design of the camera harks back to the classic Nikon FM film SLR camera, but it’s fully digital, and compatible with Nikon’s impressive range of Nikon Z mount lenses. Read our full Nikon Zf review to find out if this camera is right for you.

UK retailer London Camera Exchange has an ex-demo model of the Canon EOS R5 onsale for only £2450, which is a big saving.

Although it’s an ex demo model, and has been handled by staff, you can be sure they have handled it carefully. And the camera still comes with the full two-year warranty.

In our original review, we praised the EOS R5 as one of the best cameras Canon ever made, singling out its high-resolution sensor and highly effective image stabilisation system.

‘It’s incredibly versatile, capable of churning out superb high-resolution landscape shots as it is capturing high-speed action sequences at a blistering 20fps with continuous AF. The Canon EOS R5 is an ideal candidate for portrait, wedding and documentary photographers, too, with its improved face/eye detection, and good for anyone who insists on a higher resolution output than the EOS R6.’

Canon EOS R5 key features

• 45-million-pixel Dual Pixel CMOS AF sensor
• DIGIC X image processor
• ISO 100-51,200 (expandable to ISO 50-102,400)

The post We’ve never seen this full-frame camera so cheap – but hurry appeared first on Amateur Photographer.

You can now get the entry level Nikon Z5 with the 24-50mm kit lens for just over £1000 on Amazon UK. This is a tempting money-saving starter package for those moving up from APS-C or Micro Four Thirds sensor cameras, or smartphones.

As we said in our original review, the Nikon Z5 is definitely not cheap and nasty. The camera has the excellent handling of the Nikon Z6 II and Z7 II, offers great build qualtiy for the price, packs dual SD card slots and performs very well with the huge range of affordable F-mount SLR lenses (via the FTZ adapter), giving you the best of both worlds.

Nikon Z5 key features

• 24.3MP full-frame CMOS sensor
• EXPEED 6 image processor
• 5-axis in-body image stabilisation (IBIS)
• 0.5in, 3,680k-dot OLED EVF
• 3.2inch tilting touch-screen (1040K)
• 4.5fps burst shooting
• 4K, 30p video recording (cropped)

The post Go full-frame this new year, with this very good deal appeared first on Amateur Photographer.

Fujifilm has done a lot to make medium format more accessible and affordable with its well-regarded GFX range. Images have lots of resolution and dynamic range, with a particular pop.

You can now get the Fujifilm GFX 50S II body only for a very competitive £2789 from UK retailer Ffordes, which puts it in the same price bracket as top full-frame mirrorless cameras such as the Nikon Z8. Ffordes is a well-established retailer too, not some grey importer.

As we said in our original review, the camera delivers excellent image quality in a compact, portable design, along with effective in-body stabilisation and superb in-camera colour processing. You can see why so many portrait pros in particular love the Fujifilm GFX range.

Fujifilm GFX 50S II key features

• 51.4MP medium format sensor
• ISO 50-102,400 (extended)
• 3.69m-dot EVF, 0.77x magnification

As well as offering superlative stills performance the Nikon Z6III is a video star too, further reinforcing its excellent all-rounder credentials. The camera offers internal 12-bit RAW video recording at 60fps, in either 6K or 4K resolution from the full sensor width. It can also record slow-motion footage in Full HD at 240fps, complete with audio.
