What Type of Camera Do You Want to Buy Next?

                   There's a couple in here you may never have heard of.

Everyone takes pictures, many of us shoot photos and a few of us create images. Don't take this lightly, there is a difference and it can be a big one. Whatever type of photography you do you probably have an idea of what type of camera you are looking to buy next. A few of us have always wanted to shoot Medium Format but others might want the new iPhone 5s. Alternatively you may be looking for the next Point and Shoot camera from numerous manufacturers such as Pentax, Sony or Canon. Or you may want a new Digital SLR. While a very few others might lean toward a Large Format body. And even newer you may be looking for a mirrorless body. And some of us may want a new cell phone and a new digital slr. Then there's one you may not have heard of, at the end, it's the half-camera.

The website The Phoblographer has some info on Canon's new rumored entry into the MF (medium format) field which some bloggers say will take until mid to late 2014 because of the lenses they'll need to introduce with it.

DpreviewDPreview reveals a Fujifilm mirrorless has just a week ago announced their latest entry, for a suggested retail price of $599.

Canon EOS 70D review
And the newest Canon DSLR the 70D, sports a 20MP APS-C sensor keeping it just under a full frame model, for $1200. Here's a full review from Camera Labs you won't want to miss.










Tom's Guide tells us that the new iPhone 5s has almost cancelled out point & shoots altogether, and they may be right.




 And Tom's also shows a Canon point & shoot Elph 330 HS that he compares with the iPhone 5s.










The iPhone's real competition: Canon PowerShot.

Then we have the half-camera. Sony has come up with a lens attachment which fits onto a cell phone. Check this video out Half Camera. http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2013/09/26/technology/personaltech/20130926_pogue-slide-NT9U/20130926_pogue-slide-NT9U-thumbWide.jpg

And finally the large format, and yes there's a new one out there, almost: it's called the Travelwide 4x5 and it's on Kickstarter

(Shown with lens and accessories; not included.)
It's very important that you do the proper research unless of course the cost is low and you just want something fun to use. So where do you do the research? I like DPreview, CameraLabs, Tom's and the-digital-picture. Regardless what you want to buy, here's a great site to read about new camera news, called New Camera but beware you'll need to watch a short ad. Enjoy your search and here's hoping you'll let us know what you decided on. Happy hunting.
