Colby Brown (Click here) got the new 16-35mm FE Zeiss and posted his first impression review:
When you hold it in your hand, it doesn’t feel cheap. It feels solid. Why? Because instead of using plastic like many camera/lens manufacturers these days, they use a metal finish, both for the lens body itself and for the focus ring, which truly does make a difference when you are holding it in your hands. On top of this, the lens is listed as dust and water resistant, a feature I plan on putting to the test since a hurricane is currently moving through Hawaii as we speak.

Aurora Borealis in Tromsø from Anders M on Vimeo.
That’s what you can do when you have a 4K camera that can shoot at 25600 clean(!) ISO. The video has been taken by Anders M:

A couple of years ago this would have been impossible: Canon using Sony sensors
Well the new Canon G7x “unofficially” uses the same 20 MP sensor from the RX100. And the guys from TheCameraStoreTV compared it against the new Sony RX100M3. Wanna know if Canon managed to beat the cam? Watch the video
