Recently, The Huffington Post ran an article in their Culture section that made me want to call Ms. Huffington herself and give her a piece of my mind. This “report” about the German “Trashcam Project,” I would tell her is, to put it mildly just this short of pure garbage.

However, let me start with the basic facts. The Trashcam Project is made up of six trashmen,...

We've reviewed each of the other zoom lenses in Nikon's initial launch of the 1 series and we round out those with a review of the Nikon 10mm f/2.8 1 Nikkor "pancake" lens. At just 77 grams (under 3 oz) it's one of the smallest and lightest lenses Nikon has ever produced. We've put the lens through its paces in our test lab: click here to read our full review of the Nikon...

We had to check the calendar to make sure it wasn't still April Fool's Day when we saw this one. It's a massive Nikon 6mm f/2.8 fisheye lens and it recently went on sale in London for 100,000 British pounds (about $160,800).

According to Amateur Photographer, the jumbo fisheye lens was created as the "the world's most most extreme wideangle lens to cover the 24x36mm image...

Someone at Olympus has simply seen John Waters’ “Hairspray” too many times. Who else could have thought up the very pink, very retro Olympus Happy Vanity Kit for Mother’s Day 2012?
 
According to its press release, Olympus saw a study that said that in the demographic of under 25 year old married couples, nearly 56% of respondents said that it is Mom, not Dad, who is now...

This is, admittedly, pretty bizarre (and a bit gruesome) but it's a weird Friday and that's just the kind of mood we're in.

This 4x5 camera you see on the right was made from aluminum, titanium, brass, silver, gemstones and, yes, the 150-year-old skull of a 13-year-old girl.

Basically, it's a pinhole camera that performs not unlike the pinhole camera made from a pine...

Every day, there is a long queue snaking around the block of the Hôtel de Ville (City Hall) in central Paris. Looking like a line for rock concert tickets or the latest Harry Potter book, it is actually the people waiting to see a show of photographs, "Doisneau, Paris les Halles."

This exhibition of over 200 images by photographer Robert Doisneau has been packed since its...

Get a load of this flying monster. It's an eight-rotor mini helicopter drone called the Turbo Ace X88-J and it just may be the ideal device for shooting aerial imaging with a digital SLR.

Unmanned radio-controlled (RC) helicopters have been all the rage in recent years for photographers and videographers seeking to capture aerial video and stills without having to pay an...

I am built like Bob Carey, a bit on the chunky side, but I do not think I have his nerve. After all, Bob put on a bright pink tutu and created a series of photos of him in all sorts of crazy settings and postures. If that wasn’t enough, now he is using these images to help fight breast cancer.

 
The project started as a lark in 2003, when he and his wife Linda relocated...

Demonstrating its faith in the future of the compact system camera market, and in mirrorless cameras' ability to triumph over the SLR, Samsung has today launched three new models for its NX series. There's much shared between the flagship Samsung NX20, and its two siblings, the mid-range Samsung NX210 and entry-level Samsung NX1000. All three also share DNA with the...

Nikon has today announced its latest consumer digital SLR, the Nikon D3200. As the name would suggest, it's a followup to the D3100, which launched back in late 2010. The new model boosts resolution significantly, but simultaneously brings a step forward in terms of speed.

The D3200's new DX-format image sensor has a resolution of 24.2 megapixels. That's almost double the...
