Storm chaser, Photographer and full time as a police officer in California, Jeff Boyce created a excellent Time-lapse video that catches viewer eyes for sure. To create such a beautiful time lapse video Boyce took a 5-week long break and Canon 6D with Rokinon 14mm f/2.8, Rokinon 24mm f/1.4, Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8, Tamron 70-300 f/4.5-5.6, and Canon 50mm f/1.8.
“My inspiration for photography has always been a desire to capture something spectacular, something unusual, and something unique. This drives me to stand in the path of a violent tornado or in the middle of intense lightning storms, to stay up all night under the stars exposing the hidden Milky Way, or to drive 800 miles in a day in search of something breathtaking…..Jeff Boyce”
Panasonic installed a photo booth in in Osaka and used 120 Lumix DMC-GH4 cameras to make the effective 3D figurine portraits . Through ultra fast 3D scanning with limited time frame of 1/1000 sec, the image of the subject captured is sharp even if it will be in motion , hanging in the air or any other position.
Video in Japanese.
To obtain the 3D portraits, the cameras are arranged in grid pattern covering the floor to ceiling of the booth facing towards the walls of the cylindrical booth. It is synchronized in such a way that the trigger of the camera goes on every one millionth of a second. In this process it collects 2 billion pixels of information and results in 1/10th life-size images.
The figurines are optional, and cost 55000 yen, plus tax, which is about $450/£280. For more information see the Panasonic Japan press release and watch a promotional video – both in Japanese.
Panasonic GH3 is available $597 only (compared to $797) for a limited time, the camera features 16 MP four third format sensor, records 1920×1080 60p Full-HD videos recording formats include AVCHD at 17-28Mps and H.264 at 4-72Mbps. It uses the NTSC video system/standard. For more details visit B&H store

Sony has its own unique reputation in the world of electronic gadgets either mobilephone or digital camera, Sony enjoyed a breathtaking commercial success in every fields. Well, The recent news that is racing through different websites is now a hot topic of discussion on current days that Sony Mobile Communications has planned to blend with the a company called ZMP in coming August with a motive to create a successful Joint ventures named Aerosense. Through this joint ventures Sony can bring some holistic development in sensor technology, telecommunications networks, and robotics to the table and the ZMP’s contribution to add knowledges of “automated driving and robotic technologies.”
But the real fact is that the Aerosense drones will be equipped for measuring, surveying, observing, and inspecting. We aren’t able to get any even single clue that the Aerosense drones are for consumer imaging. But we do hope after it’s success in limited approach, Sony will re-think to announce it’s drone camera for consumers worldwide.
At last these all are the news we could collect till date. So, if you are interested in this news then try to check our websites time to time to get some further information. stay with us (FACEBOOK | TWITTER | GOOGLE+)
The FZ300 is recently announced by Panasonic, the camera features advance core specification but the only problem is the small sensor inside it, on the other hand Sony RX10 II features large 1″ sensor…. Take a look at the specification comparison review between the Sony RX10 II and FZ300 camera,
Major Difference
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ300 vs. Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX10 II Specification Comparison Table.
Sensors: Sony DSC RX10 II has 20.2 MP 1″ Exmor RS BSI CMOS Sensor which is based on backside-illuminated technology. While the FZ300 supports 12MP 1/2.3″ high-Sensitivity MOS sensor added with the Venus Engine image processor.
Hence the sensor of RX10 II is larger and superior to FZ300. The large sensor inside the RX10 II definitely improves the clarity and image as well its performance in low-light condition. Sony RX10 II has two stop more ISO compare to FZ300 , which makes it more sensitive to low-light environment and hence it captures correctly exposed image even at low-light condition when compared to FZ300.
Sony RX10 II has the integrated DRAM chip into the sensor and its combination with the BINOZ X processor supports 4K recording upto 30 mins and can capture 20MP files @14fps on the other side FZ300 has the capacity to capture 12MP files @12fps., the Sony RX10 II is really have uncomparable speed.
Sony RX10II sensor will give you better image quality compared to FZ300.
Optical Zoom: FZ300 uses the Leica DC Vario-Elmarit 24x Zoom Lens which supports the equivalent focal length of 25-600mm and also supports maximum and fixed aperture of f/2.8. While Sony RX10 II has uses the Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 8.3x Optical Zoom Lens with fixed F2.8 aperture range, the biggest reason behind the coverage of more optical zoom by Panasonic is its small sensor size. However if you want a zoom camera you may go with Nikon P900 that features 83X optical zoom.
Yes the Panasonic FZ300 more zoom compared to RX10 II.
Image Stabilization: Panasonic FZ300 used the advanced 5-Axis HYBRID Optical Image Stabilization on the other hand the camera Sony RX10 features 3 way image stabilization. The Optical image stabilization used in FZ300 reduces the production of blur due to your shaky hands and also it corrects five types of camera shake during handheld shooting. It also compensates in real time vibration while recording the still or the action videos while walking. Whereas RX10 II has the Optical SteadyShot image stabilization and reduce the camera shake works dim-light conditions. Its Active 3-Way stabilization maintains the balance between both clockwise and counter-clockwise movements while recording videos.
FZ300 has used the advanced Image stabilization compare to RX10 II.
Shutter Speed: Both Sony and Panasonic camera features built in electronic as well as mechanical shutter, however the RX10 II electronic shutter limit goes upto 1/32000, which is far better than FZ300 on the other hand the FZ300 long exposure mode is better compared to RX10 II.
Video: The FZ300 supports recording 4K UHD at the resolution of 3840 x 2160pixels video with either 30p or 24p frames rates at 100 Mbps in the MP4 format. Also RX10 II supports 4K UHD video recording and also offers shooting up to 100 Mbps. The biggest advantage of RX10 II is super slow motion recording,it can record super slow-motion full HD video up to 960 fps.
Display: In Sony RX10 II 3.0″ 1228K-dot LCD monitor is integrated into the camera body and features a tilting design to promote easier use from high and low angles, on the other hand the Panasonic FZ300 have bit low resolution vari-angle touch display unit.
Price Difference:A big price difference present, The Panasonic FZ300 will cost your approx $700 less compared to the RX10 II.
Verdict: We highly recommend you to buy Sony RX10 II if Price doesn’t matter.
Tamron 13-200mm Lens Patent surfaced over the web, the lens covers a very wide range and developed for APS-C camera, take a look at the patent details below
Explanation and self-interpretation of the patent literature
While looking at the recently published spec comparison at our website many of our users are sending few common questions to us, it includes; How Panasonic is able to do AF in just 0.07 sec with the help of contrast based technology? Does DFD technology is actually a firmware or hardware thing ? Where does the Panasonic DFD Actually placed, inside the sensor or somewhere else ?
I want to keep this post as short as possible
What is DFD?
Panasonic DFD is hardware and exclusively designed & developed by Panasonic and it’s not a software. DFD autofocus relies on special hardware in the camera’s processor, so can’t be brought to older models via firmware updates.
How it Work?
Before we explain that we have to understand how the traditional contrast based system work, the traditional contrast detect system based camera actually. Camera having a normal contrast based Sensor determines the best focus point by moving the AF ring and scanning the entire subject, once the scan is done the lens AF reverse back to peak focus point. However when a Panasonic camera uses DFD technology, it quickly predict aka calculate the AF point and move AF point quickly there, finally it uses contrast based system to fine-tune the AF point.
So don’t get confused that Panasonic newly announced camera is using contrast based system only, the Camera AF based on DFD tech and later it fine-tuned by contrast AF. The biggest advantage of this technology that sensor doesn’t have any single dead pixel like other Hybrid AF sensors have for phase AF.
