Last Updated on 05/13/2026 by Chris Gampat It’s been 13 years since Sony first introduced the R series of cameras, the first high-resolution mirrorless cameras available to the public.

This has been a very long time in the making, and I'm very excited to finally make this happen. The Phoblographer is launching workshops for photographers who want to find ways to grow beyond just what all the social media content developers and YouTubers tell you you need. And we're doing this in a very special way that so many others don't do. More importantly, we're doing this at an extremely affordable price point at a secret location in New York City.

Canon RF 14mm f1.4 L Review: What The YouTubers Didn’t Tell You
by Chris Gampat
May 13, 2026
"The more I shoot Canon, the more I want to run back to LUMIX and Nikon," is a message I type in the private Discord of the Phoblographer's staff. I type this up at the end of being absolutely frustrated with Canon gear and using it all a lot over the past few days. Unless you're constantly buying the latest products, Canon's control layout makes zero sense to me. And it ultimately lead me to believe that most of the YouTubers and influencers who review the Canon RF 14mm f1.4 L lens either mostly shot with it in auto or didn't do really engaging work with the lens. Sure, it's seemingly designed for astrophotography. But if you're spending nearly $3,000 on an gastrophotography lens, then I'd hope that you're making money from your images. And chances are that you aren't. So instead, you'd need to use it for architecture, events, etc. That, ultimately, is where this lens falls apart.
LUMIX L10 Review: A Photographer’s Favorite Camera?

Something that I absolutely never expected to happen so soon is the announcement of the new Panasonic LUMIX L10 camera. This new camera differs a lot from the Leica D-LUX 8 and is the spiritual successor to the LX100 series. It starts with a higher megapixel sensor and then incorporates the processor that adds on AI scene detection and Real Time LUT. So in many ways, the LUMIX L10 is a much more powerful camera -- or at least it should be.
