Nikon announces the D4s
Well, we knew it was coming and now it is official, the Nikon D4s is now the upgrade (albeit very minor) to the Nikon D4. There are some minor body tweaks such as a redesigned grip and more firm feeling buttons for starters and a larger battery leading to a heavier body. While plenty of other aspects on the spec sheet are different, it all boils down to 1 major change, the Processer. Sporting a 30% faster EXPEED 4, the faster processer allows plenty of changes such as faster shooting, multiple AF point tracking, 1080p video at 60fps and much more. Take a look past the break for all the info.
Nikon D3300 Announced
Nikon has announced the new Nikon D3300 which brings the same sensor and lack of an AA filter we last saw with the Nikon D5300 to Nikon's entry DSLR. The new EXPEED 4 processor now allows up to 12,800 naitive shooting although I don't expect much improvement to the RAW files in low light performance. Head past the break for more info.
Sigma 50mm f/1.4 HSM Announced
CES is in full swing and Sigma has just announced the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 HSM which is a lens I have been looking forward to for a long time. This lens will bring the excellent image quality we have seen from their previous lenses such as the Sigma 35mm f/1.4 and others. The Sigma 35mm f/1.4 is one of my favorite lenses and I know have the new Sigma 120-300mm f2.8 OS on my desk so I am very much looking forward to a great lens in my most used 50mm focal length.

Canon 70D STM lenses VS 3rd Party Lenses - Focus & Aperture noise
The new Canon 70D has some awesome autofocus abilities for live view and videographers. However, most lenses do not focus quietly and changing the aperture is also a noisy process. So let's take a look at the Canon 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 IS STM vs the Tamron 24-70mm f2.8 VC to see the differences and if noise is a factor you should consider.
Canon 70D Limitations for Videographers
Every new camera has its limitations and the 70D is no exception. Let's take a look at some of the limitations of the Canon 70D with Audio recording, Aperture/shutter priority, and other settings. We will also compare these limitations to the Canon 5D Mark III to see what extra features and abilities the 5D unlocks.
