In terms of build quality the Samyang 24mm 1.8 AF is a huge step up from the Samyang 18mm 2.8 AF I previously reviewed. The by-wire focus ring has a nice resistance and turns 180° from the minimum focus distance of 0.19 m to infinity. It is also a bit more responsive compared to the 18mm 2.8 AF but you can still sometimes notice the “steps”.
The Oppo Find X6 Pro is the new No. 1 in the DXOMARK Camera ranking for smartphones, thanks to an outstanding overall performance and massive improvements over its predecessor, making it an excellent option for photographers who want to capture landscapes and portraits with lots of natural detail in all light conditions.
The new Sigma 50mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary lens offers one of the most popular focal lengths in tandem with a modestly wide maximum aperture, all in a very travel-friendly package, making it an appealing lens for quite a few photographers. Can it deliver good performance and image quality to back up those appealing characteristics?
DxO PureRAW 3 arrives with an overhauled user interface that includes a versatile new queuing system. It also brings several new correction types and controls, including the top-of-the-line DeepPRIME XD denoising algorithms that debuted last year with PhotoLab 6.
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview will be closing in the near future. This difficult decision is part of the annual operating plan review that our parent company shared earlier this year.
PureRAW 3 takes your original RAW files and applies DxO’s own lens correction profiles and DeepPRIME noise reduction processing to produce images which are sharper, clearer and so noise free that you will probably re-think what you imagine your camera gear to be capable of.
With a DXOMARK Camera score of 136, the Xiaomi 13 Pro performed well in our tests, offering bright exposure, nice colors and good detail capture in both photo and video modes. In addition, the camera was capable of producing high image quality at close and medium range tele settings and recorded still images with a wide dynamic range, even in low light.
With a DXOMARK Camera score of 152, the Honor Magic5 Pro is the new leader in their ranking. It also takes the No. 1 spot in the photo ranking, thanks to outstanding photo results across all light levels. The Magic5 Pro also did very well for video and is currently the best Android device for recording moving images.
The Z30 mirrorless camera is Nikon’s third APS-C (DX) system that takes advantage of the Z-mount. While clearly marketed at content creators, vloggers, and social media influencers, the compact system has everything a solo-operating content creator needs to get up and running for video and photo.
DXOMARK put the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra through their rigorous Camera test suite to measure its performance in photo, video, and zoom quality from an end-user perspective.
