Why is the Canon 200-400mm so amazing?
Yes, I know. The Canon 200-400mm f/4 ext 1.4 costs a little fortune (or, at least, as much as a little car). Knowing quite well that I was lucky to be able to get mine (I will never thank enough those who contributed so actively; They will recognize themselves), I also know that it will…

The Canon EF 200-400mm f/4L IS USM Lens with Internal 1.4x Extender is a major piece of glass from Canon. One sample just arrived at YLovePhoto, so it was a good opportunity to share with you the unpacking process. Of course, I must profusely thank Xtian for his considerable help.

The Sony Alpha 77 (or A77) has now more than 2 years of age on the market. It was a very significant step forward for Sony with the arrival of a semi-transparent mirror, of a good-quality Electronic View Finder (EVF) and of speed performance putting it a world of itself for its price (sensor resolution…
Light leaks on Sony A7 and A7r
The small hybrid cameras with interchangeable lenses from Sony, the Sony A7 and A7r know quite a (expected) success but the manufactured just recognized a fairly big fail: a A light leakage is possible between the body and the lens at the lens attachement. Not good…. The lens mount lets some light leak into the…
Canon would abandon point-and-shoots
For sure, the recent financial report [PDF] from Canon shows that the situation is not perfect for them (But compare to Sony who announced it would soon sell its historical headquarters Osaki building in Tokyo). it’s clear that all photography equipment manufacturers are facing difficult times with a dwindling market eaten by smartphones more and…
Nikon to repair D600 for free (update)
…but in the US only, for now. It seems that the wide availability of the Nikon D610 (and its improved shutter mechanism able to reduce dust/pollution levels to normal) makes Nikon able to extend the replacement of faulty shutter mechanisms in all D600. Customers just have to ask. This is right in the US, but…

Canon 200-400mm: Finally coming to us?
Here is one big lens who knows how to make people wait: The all-new, all-innovative super-tele-zoom lens from Canon, the EF 200-400 f/4L IS 1.4x.

Nikon 800mm f/5.6 E FL ED VR: new, big, black
Nikon has decided to start renewing some of its sports- or wildlife-oriented long lenses this year (and probably in 2014 too). Starting in January 2013, they offer a monster of a lens, the Nikkor 800mm f/5.6 E FL ED VR. It’s a monster of price (18,000 USD list price, but slightly better at B&H or…

D800: Latest bug: Lock-up
PDN found a problem with the Nikon D4 and D800 while testing these. It seems that there are situations where the camera will lock up when the camera is used with either Highlights or histogram display. Simply disabling these features will avoid this ugly lock-up (even if it is easy to restore normal operation by…
Nikon batteries on fire!
Or, rather, there is a risk of overheating and Nikon decided not to take any risk and to recall some of the EN-EL15 (batteries used on D700, D7000, D800, D800E and V1). The only batteries that may be replaced hold the letter E or the letter F in 9th position in their serial number. EN-EL15…
