10 Mirrorless Camera Blogs You Should Follow in 2016

01/01/2016 By Heather

At the beginning of each new year, Mathieu and I have the tradition of dedicating a post to our favourite mirrorless blogs from around the web, featuring a mix of well-established references alongside up-and-coming websites with lots of potential. As gear reviewers, we always enjoy reading the opinions of and seeing the photographs produced by our “virtual colleagues” as they often touch upon subjects that we weren’t able to cover in our own reviews or provide a different perspective.

The blogs listed here are those we discovered in 2015 and have been following with great interest. They are listed in no particular order, though we did try to separate blogs that talk about the same brand!

13/11/2015 By Heather

Full-frame cameras are commonplace on the DSLR market, with models available from Nikon, Canon, Sony and soon Pentax, but they have yet to permeate the mirrorless market to the same degree.

This can be attributed not to the physical impossibility of fitting a mirrorless body with a full-frame sensor but the difficulty of achieving an optimum balance between body size and image quality.

The problem for manufacturers that want to produce mirrorless full-frame cameras is that the word mirrorless has become synonymous with compactness and portability. This is easy enough to achieve with smaller sensors like APS-C or Four Thirds but becomes much more challenging with full-frame, especially if you want to introduce modern features such as autofocus and optical stabilisation into the lenses.

When beginners or amateurs are faced with buying their first mirrorless camera, the most they are willing to spend is usually around $500 (US). Although we’d written a list back in 2013 detailing the best mirrorless cameras under $500, we felt it was high time to update it with both the latest models and cameras that have come down in price since their release.
