We already have Nikon BSI CMOS sensor patents, with dual pixel CMOS AF technology. Today we have spotted a new sensor patent. The new patent surfaced today suggest that Nikon is working on a Multilayer Stacked BSI CMOS sensor. Type of Sensor that we have already seen inside the Sony A9 camera.
Patent No – No. 6048482 (P6048482) click here
Registration date – December 2, 2016.12.2
Publication date – December 21st, Heisei 28 (2016.12.21)
Image Omitted – Structure of sensor No. 11 is a first layer chip with PD, and No. 12 is a stacked secondary layer chip with memory and A / D converter. Both layers are connected with micro – bumps shown as No. 15.
Nikon do make their sensor but they are very limited, there they are limited FSI Technology. On the other hand Nikon D850 uses 45MP BSI CMOS sensor from Sony. We do hope in the next few years we will sure see Mutlilayer Stacked BSI sensors from Nikon.
Sigma china account accidentally twitted they will soon going to announce new FE lenses at CP+ show. So, its a great news for Sony fullframe A7/A9 series users, that ART lenses are finally coming for them. Unfortunately, the tweet was deleted after a while. But we do have the screen shot of the tweet .
Pic of the tweet below
the tweet is now deleted
We will update you soon as we get any new information.
We also have a Sony camera users facebook group you must join that group to get live updates lots of discussions are going on, there you can ask questions you can give answers you can share your images.
The New Camera Exclusive – Nikon is working on completely new technology. We have spotted a Nikon Lens with Touch and Pressure Sensor. So, you can now zoom your lens with the touch of your hand. Future DSLR/ Mirrorless lenses may carry advance sensor controls.
Description: (Translated Version)To allow a lens position when a hand is released from a lens barrel to be held.SOLUTION: A lens barrel 10 of a digital camera 1 comprises: a barrel that houses an imaging optical system 20; and touch sensors 12, 14 and 16 that are provided in a periphery of the barrel, and detect a state where an operator contacts with respect to the barrel or a contactless state. When the touch sensors 12, 14 and 16 detect the contact, a CPU 32 allows a zoom lens 21, a focus lens 23 and an aperture stop 25 which correspond to each sensor to move or open/close, and when the touch sensors 12, 14 and 16 do not detect the contact, the CPU 32 locks the movement of the zoom lens 21 and the focus lens 23 or the opening/closing of the aperture stop 25 via a locking section 34.
(Translated version ) In a digital camera equipped with a retractable lens, when a pressure sensor is attached to the grip portion of the digital camera and it is detected by the pressure sensor that the camera is in a non-gripping state from the state of gripping the camera, the camera is falling (For example, refer to Japanese Unexamined Patent Application, First Publication No. Hei 11-94926). In this technique, the lens is collapsed to prevent breakage.
[0009] The zoom ring 11 is an operation ring that manually moves the zoom lens in its optical axis direction. The zoom ring touch sensor 12 is a sensor that detects contact of an object by detecting changes in electrostatic capacitance and electric resistance. The zoom ring touch sensor 12 is provided on the zoom ring 11 and can detect contact with the zoom ring 11. It should be noted that the zoom ring touch sensor 12 may be provided in the vicinity of the zoom ring 11 with a high possibility of being touched when operating the zoom ring 11.
[0010] The focus ring 13 is an operation ring for manually moving the focus lens in its optical axis direction. Similarly to the zoom ring touch sensor 12, the focus ring touch sensor 14 is a sensor for detecting contact of an object. The focus ring touch sensor 14 is provided on the focus ring 13 and can detect contact with the focus ring 13. It should be noted that the focus ring touch sensor 14 may be provided in the vicinity of the focus ring 13 with a high possibility of being touched when operating the focus ring 13.
In general we get lot of questions from our users that which Panasonic camera is best to buy. Now we have a perfect answer for you, thanks for professional photographer / Vlogger Richard for comparing out all the latest Panasonic Mirrorless cameras that includes Panasonic GH5 with firmware version 2.0, Panasonic GH5S, Panasonic G9 and yes the most cheapest Panasonic G85.
Which Panasonic camera is best for still and video shooting ?
I have seen many times that people complain a lot about Panasonic GH5 autofocus performance. Despite of being a professional camera or flagship camera, the auto focusing speed of Panasonic GH5 is really questionable. If you look at the video above OR if you don’t have the time you can jump below to see the series of images we have added in the blog post, which clearly says that the most affordable camera from Panasonic is the fastest one.
Before we begin let me tell you that Richard then the test several times but we have randomly picked one test in the images below so if you want to look at all the test you have to go through the video
In the first frame when Richard appears suddenly in the image the Panasonic G85 camera takes no time to lock AF on him.
The Panasonic G85 loked AF on 2:24 and on 2:26 the Panasonic G9 locked AF on the subject.
And finally at 2:27 Panasonic GH5S was able to lock the subject. Get Panasonic GH5 camera from Amazon
We don’t picked the Panasonic GH5 image here because GH5 was the last camera to focus on the subject
You will be surprised to know that the most cheapest camera available in the Panasonic is able to do the fastest autofocus in compared to the other cameras of Panasonic.
Panasonic G85 cost less than $700, But its autofocusing performance is better than Panasonic GH5S, Panasonic GH5 and Panasonic G9.
Special thanks to Richard for testing out all these 4 camera and clearing all our doubts related to the Panasonic mirrorless autofocusing performance related its mirrorless series.
Panasonic G85 camera features 16 megapixel for 43rd format sensor able to record 4K videos. Not only that the Panasonic G85 also features 5 Axis image stabilization inside it.
So if you are still Shooter on a video blogger or a cinematographer Panasonic G85 camera will going to help you a lot while you are creating videos. don’t have to worry about the focusing performance of the camera especially when you’re using Panasonic G85.
It’s very clear that Japan loves Canon camera, the BCN rankings are out and in that ranking the Canon cameras are leading in digital compact as well as DSLR category. Even in mirrorless ranking after Olympus Canon is the second and in the third place we have Sony.
Fuji X-T3 is coming on Photokina 2018 with a completely X-Trans sensor. Based on the rumors, Fuji is developing a high resolution sensor for next Fuji X-T3. The resolution of the camera is said to be somewhere around 24-30MP. Take a look at the rumored specification of the camera
Fuji X-T3 Rumored Specification
New X-Trans Sensor [24-30 MP]
X-Processor Pro
Announcement of Fuji X-T3 time Photokina 2018
Shipping of the camera will start from Novemeber 2018
Introduction of Image Stabilization [Same as of Fuji X-H1 camera ?]
We have told you a week ago that Fuji X-H1 camera coming on February 2018.We also expect introduction of built in image stabilization system inside Fuji X-T3 camera. So, the upcoming Fuji X-T3 may become the first camera in XT series with built-in image stabilization system.
