Sony NEX-6 review

The NEX-6 is Sony's eighth stills-focused E-mount mirrorless camera and becomes the first to gain a conventional mode and control dials. It also offers Wi-Fi and app-based expandability suggesting that Sony, at least, believes that keen photographers are also the photographers most keen to share their images. Beyond that much of the NEX-6 is familiar from previous models, so has shuffling these features into the deck helped Sony produce a winning hand? Click here to read our review, to find out.

Fujifilm XF 14mm F2.8 R lens review

Fujifilm's XF 14mm F2.8 R wide-angle prime is the fifth lens for the company's X-mount and offers an impressively wide 21mm-equivalent field of view. It's also the first prime in the system to feature a retractable focus ring with depth-of-field scale to give a more traditional operating experience. We've shot the lens extensively and published a review of its handling and performance. Click here to see what we found.

Nikon Coolpix A real-world samples

We've been shooting with Nikon's APS-C-based, 28mm equivalent lens sporting, F2.8 compact, the Coolpix A. We finally had a sunny weekend in Seattle, just in time to grab some photos of the cherry blossom. We've put together a 21-image samples gallery with the pocketable powerhouse and prepared some first impressions of shooting with it. Click here to read those first impressions (and see the pictures) in our Coolpix A preview.
