I usually do not photograph cities. Although I live in a very good, whenever I can do it, I get out of it! Nevertheless, I was happy on this Thursday when Spencer asked me if I had taken a photo with Tamron 50-400 mm in the frame. I was not, so I went to the streets of Prague to take one. First, the sun was hidden from shame behind a wall of clouds, but finally showed it. Thanks to this, now you know that Temron handles the sun easily in the frame, and I enjoyed a beautiful morning, which awakens Prague.

Om System Om -3 is coming soon
The official announcement of the OM system’s vintage-style camera is expected to be held on 6 February. Although its name has not been officially announced yet, it will be called OM -3. In terms of design, it should follow the 35 mm film camera iconic from the 1980s – leaked images show a lot of similarities. For glasses, they are basically expected to be similar to the current OM-1 mark II. A slight difference can be new coatings on the sensor, which should help reduce dust adhesion. The official OM system teaser also shows creative control dial on the camera front. The price of the camera is not yet known, but it should be more than $ 2000.

Two new Sony lenses coming in February
Sony is expected to announce two interesting lenses next month. While their focal length may not be different from each other, both are likely to have their primary use in nature photography.
The 16 mm F/1.8 grams will undoubtedly appeal to Astro and Landscape Photographers. Its specifications on paper are similar to 16 mm f/1.8 Review of Earlier, although at a high price (expected to be around $ 1,000).
The second lens is a supertelphoto zoom: a 400-800 mm F/6.3-8g. This is a rumor for the same quality and pricing as Sony’s current 200–600 mm lens.

Not long ago, a 24MP full-frame sensor was near the peak of high resolution. Rapid forward to 2025, and Canon has announced the development of a full-frame sensor, with a resolution of more than 15X. The newly declared backside-Illuminated CMOS sensor claims record-breaking 410MP (24,592 x 16,704 pixels). This resolution is so large that even a stacked formation and an ultra-high readout speed with 3,280 megapixels per second, the sensor can manage video recording at only 8 FPS. Canon has introduced two versions of this sensor with the same resolution – a color and a monochrome. But for now, Canon says that such a sensor is mainly designed for monitoring, drug and industrial imaging, so we will probably not see it in a consumer mirrorless camera at any time soon.
