Nikon Will Let Us Zoom Our DSLR’s Automatically Soon, But Should they?

Share
Nikon filed a patent for an SLR lens that will allow you to zoom manually as normal, but automatically (like a servo) in video mode. I will admit that this will definitely be a killer feature when it comes out. It only makes the DSLR even more like a fully functioning video camera, but there’s [...]

RED Scarlet to be renamed “Epic Light”

Share
Fresh on the heels of telling us about their abandonment of the “prosumer” customer comes a name change of “epic” proportions. Puns…meh.
