- by Ted KritsonisWhen it comes to Android phones, Samsung is among the first to come up in conversation.

- by Chris NiccollsHaving previously used both the Thypoch Simera 28mm f/1.4 and Simera 75mm f/1.4, I was expecting great things from the 50mm f/1.4. I've come to find that the Thypoch Simera series is characterized by clean, crisp optics and affordable prices. At $749, the Simera 50mm f/1.4 for M-mount is certainly far more attainable than the […]
- by Jaron SchneiderYesterday, PetaPixel shared that a fully AI-generated film titled "Dreams of Violets" had been accepted into the Tribeca Film Festival. For some reason, there are people who insist this is the future of films. If that is the case, then congratulations: I hate movies. [Read More]

- by Michael BreitungMany of today's advanced AI software features require extra subscriptions. This is also true for Photoshop's premium AI models in Generative Fill.

In this article, I reveal a pay-as-you-go method for using cutting-edge AI in Photoshop. A few […]

In any feature comparison against a modern mirrorless camera, the Leica loses on nearly every measurable axis: autofocus […]
