Rediscovering Samsung: Great Lenses, Underrated Cameras, and the RAW Files Mystery
There's a quiet irony in rediscovering Samsung's NX system a decade later. The 50-150mm f2.8 lens remains a piece of optical craftsmanship, while the NX30 body, for all its ambition, never quite matched that brilliance. It's taken years of archival indexing to see the full picture. Samsung's glass was always the star; the cameras just couldn't keep up. For those exploring similar creative tools, our piece on crafting comfortable portrait experiences offers a fitting companion to this reflective look back.

Pentax finds itself in a strange place. Ricoh is committed to the brand, and the company wants to keep making DSLRs. The trouble is that the market has moved on, leaving fewer takers for new models.

With tariffs already driving up the cost of cameras and lenses, the ongoing conflict between Iran and the United States has now squeezed chip prices further, and Fujifilm is reportedly preparing another increase.

An EMT turned off cameras aimed at patients in the back of an ambulance, and was fired for it. Now she's filed an $800,000 lawsuit, arguing she was protecting privacy that patients never consented to surrender. That tension between surveillance and care feels uncomfortably familiar. It echoes a different kind of boundary-pushing we explored in "A Creative Court Win Cracks the Door to Canon's Closed Lens Mount," where intellectual property rights clash with creative freedom. Both stories ask who gets to control the lens.
