Fujifilm is raising the prices of its cameras again

Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed. Just two weeks after raising the prices of its cameras by up to $800, Fujifilm is warning customers about another increase for US customers. In a statement provided to DPReview, the Japanese company says it will “further adjust prices” as it contends with “volat

The weirdest tool I own is also one of the most useful (and it's $10 on Amazon)

The device has a 1080p HD camera with LED lights at the tip. Adrian Kingsley-Hughes/ZDNET I have a number of inspection cameras, and they're fantastic for getting eyes into places that you normally can't get to. But they're typically large and bulky, designed for mechanics and HVAC engineers, which limits their usability when it comes to inspecting device ports or probing around cracks and crevices looking for a lost fastener. Also: I replaced my MacBook charger with this compact wall unit - a

The Nothing Phone 3 is a fun, flawed, but overall worthy semi-flagship

Nothing Phone 3 The Nothing Phone 3 tries to be an Android flagship while skipping out on just a few key areas like the chipset and top-end materials. But, with new perks like faster wired charging, improved cameras, and official US carrier support, as well as that signature hardware and software design flair, this is the easiest Nothing Phone to recommend to date. What even is a flagship Android phone these days? Sometimes, I think I know. Other times, I have to shrug and wonder. And yet, not

iPhone 17 Rumors: Everything to Know, From Redesigned Cameras to an Upgraded Display

Key takeaways: The iPhone 17 could feature a redesigned camera bump, though it may not be as drastic a difference as the Pro models. A higher refresh rate could be coming to the full lineup, potentially enabling the baseline iPhone to have an always-on display. Prices remain uncertain with tariffs, but they'll likely go up, given it's been years since Apple raised the price of the iPhone. The anticipated reveal of Apple's newest iPhone is just weeks away. Rumors have been swirling about what

Camp Snap CS-8 Review: Simple Video Capture

The Camp Snap CS-8 doesn’t care about frame rates, bit rates, or whether your footage is stabilized to unerring levels of steadiness. It doesn’t want to replace your iPhone or compete with your mirrorless camera setup. What it offers instead is something far simpler and more deliberate: the feeling of shooting video for the sake of it. Much like Camp Snap’s point-and-shoot still camera from 2023 (the company’s only other major product), it’s a throwback to when cameras didn’t think for you and

iPhone 17 vs. 17 Air, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max: All the Rumored Specs Compared

Normally, we wait until phones are released to compare them, but Apple's next iPhone models are so eagerly awaited that we'll make an exception. We're basing our comparisons on the most credible rumors of what's coming in the iPhone 17 series, including a potential superthin iPhone 17 Air, to give readers an early sense of how the new series of phones may look. Last year's iPhone 16 series added a handful of upgrades on its predecessors, most notably the new Camera Control key. While the basic

Need a New iPhone or Android Phone? Keep This in Mind Before You Buy

The iPhone 16 Pro, Google Pixel 9 Pro and Samsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra, share many things, from their amazing performance to their incredible camera setups. Throw in their huge, vibrant displays and the host of funky new AI skills and it's no surprise that these flagship phones are all among the best phones you can buy in 2025. It's also no surprise that these fan-favorite phones have something else in common, too: massive prices tags. Costing $1,000 and more, today's best phones are out of reach

I flew Insta360's new 'Antigravity' drone around Los Angeles, and it was impossible to miss a shot

HORI's Piranha Plant camera for Switch 2 drops to $40

The HORI Piranha Plant camera for the Nintendo Switch 2 is on sale for just $40, which is a discount of $20 and a record-low price. This is a great deal for those who own a Switch 2 and want to take advantage of the camera functionality in games like Mario Kart World and that recently-released campfire sim. This was designed specifically for Nintendo's new console, so it's a plug-and-play affair. It's actually cheaper than the official Switch 2 camera with this sale and it looks a whole lot coo

These smashing Galaxy Z Flip 7 cover screen wallpapers make clever use of the cameras

Reddit user whassupbun TL;DR Some people have created exciting cover screen wallpapers for the Galaxy Z Flip 7. These wallpapers incorporate the dual cameras on the Galaxy Z Flip 7.

I wanted to love Sony’s Xperia 1 VII, but its outdated priorities made that impossible

Sony Xperia 1 VII The Sony Xperia 1 VII packs some of the most powerful photo and video features on the market into a robust build that finally sees a long-term update pledge to match. Sadly, the camera quality doesn't always live up to the promise, and it struggles to stand out on any other merits. It'll delight a niche audience, but it's far too average for such a high asking price for everyone else. It’s been a little while since a Sony phone passed my desk, so I was chomping at the bit to g

Thank You Apple for Fixing the Camera Navigation in the Latest iOS 26 Beta

Apple released the third public beta of iOS 26 on Aug. 14. It brought new features, including Liquid Glass design and call screening, to developers' and beta testers' iPhones. Thankfully, it also reverted the way you switch between photo modes in your Camera app. With Apple's redesign of the Camera app in the iOS 26 beta, the company had initially inverted the way you navigate between camera modes. So, after years of swiping in one direction to get to a photo mode, imagine my surprise when I sw

I'm Eyeing These 7 iPhone 17 Pro Max Rumors to Decide Whether to Upgrade

Every time new iPhone models roll around, I ask myself two questions: Should I upgrade this year? And, should this be the year I finally make the jump to the larger iPhone Pro Max? Some years it's a more difficult choice, such as when the iPhone 15 Pro Max was the only model with a 5x telephoto camera. But as we get closer to the iPhone 17 announcements, I just might make the leap. Here's a rundown of some of the features rumored for the iPhone 17 Pro Max that I'm most curious about. Don't mis

I know my way around a pair of joysticks — but I’d prefer to soar. I don’t want to think about filming while I’m flying. I’d rather explore.

Now even Flip phones will get 200MP cameras

TL;DR The HONOR Magic V Flip 2 will apparently have a 200MP main camera. This would make it the first Flip phone with a 200MP camera. HONOR has also confirmed that it will have the biggest battery in a Flip phone. The Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition and Galaxy Z Fold 7 were the first foldable phones to offer a 200MP main camera.

I’ve always been more of a Flip fan, but the Galaxy Z Fold 7 has won me over

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 might be headed the wrong way on price, but it's going in the right direction for everything else. It's both slimmer and more powerful than any Fold before it, fitting the same battery and a new chipset into a body that's barely over four millimeters when open. I'd love to see one or two S Ultra-tier improvements, but there's no denying this is the foldable Samsung has wanted to make for years. I’ve been on board with foldable phones since the s

Apple, I'm Begging You: Don't Let AI Ruin the iPhone 17's Camera

AI has become an expected part of every new phone launching in 2025 and not just in the form of Gemini Live or Circle to Search. The cameras on many phones have AI baked deep into the heart of the experience too. I was taken aback by the Honor 400 Pro's image-to-video AI tool when it brought my dad back to life, while the Pixel 9 Pro focused more on generative AI to add new elements to your Images or even create new scenes out of nowhere. But the iPhones have always focused first and foremost o

Say Cheese! Here's How to Use Your AirPods to Take an iPhone Picture in iOS 26

Taking photos can be a fun way to save and share memories, but sometimes getting a good picture can be difficult. For example, if you're taking a selfie, you might find it hard to hold your phone at the right angle to get everyone in the shot while keeping your hand out of frame and still being able to press the capture button. But when Apple releases iOS 26 this fall, it will let you use your AirPods to take photos so you can just worry about getting everyone's best angle. Apple released the s

The Fairphone (Gen. 6) Review: Better Than Ever

I have always loved the idea of the Fairphone. A fair-trade, repairable smartphone designed to be used for a long time, shedding the notion of upgrading every year or two. The idea makes it more environmentally friendly than every other phone. The goal is admirable, but the company's hardware always fell short in a few ways. The Fairphone 5, for example, had a mediocre camera and so-so performance. I've now been using The Fairphone (Gen. 6) for two weeks, and I don't feel like the phone is seve

Wyze's New Duo Cam Pan Eliminates Security Camera Blind Spots

Most smart cameras give you a virtual window into your yard, letting you keep an eye on your house while you're away. Yet these setups are often limited by a single camera, which can create blind spots in your security system.
