Latest news and press reviews about DxOMark test results
Here you can find all of DxOMark's measurement publishing announcements, along with a selection of reviews, print and blog articles from the photo press and communities that talk about DxOMark or reference DxOMark results.
 |
Following the hybrid camera trend and after the limited success of the Pentax Q, Pentax is announcing today a new compact camera with interchangeable lens: the Pentax K-01 |
 |
Nikon’s AF-D lenses don’t have an integrated motorized autofocus, but they are compatible with motor-equipped Nikon DSLRs, such as the Nikon D3x. Further, in contrast to the more recent AF-G-series lenses, the AF-Ds have an aperture ring. |
 |
DxOMark continues its exploration of the past with this very good wide-angle lens that Sigma first produced for Canon mounts in 2003, and while we’re at it, we’ll use this opportunity to compare it with one of the most best-known lenses on the market, the Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM. |
 |
With 15 MPix on a 14.0 mm x 18.7 mm sensor in an $800 bridge camera intended for the general public, the appearance of the Canon PowerShot G1X was one of the big events at CES 2012. |
 |
We have just tested both the Canon and Nikon versions of the Sigma 105mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM lens, announced on February 8, 2011. |
 |
Tokina announces a new version of its wide angle 11-16 mm for APS-C featuring an aspherical element, an improved surface coating and an autofocus motor (AF-S equivalent) called SD-M (Silent Drive-Module). |
 |
As we continue our survey of wide-angle lenses currently on the market, let’s take a look at the Tokina AT-X 11-16mm PRO DX on a Nikon D7000 and on a Canon EOS 7D. |
 |
Announced at PMA 2009, the Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 EX DC HSM Canon wide-angle zoom lens features a constant f/3.5 maximum aperture (EX) and is equipped with a hypersonic motor (HSM). |
 |
We have just tested the Tamron SP AF 90mm F/2.8 Di MACRO on both Canon and Nikon mounts, giving us the opportunity to review the performance of all the lenses in this category (though we’re waiting for the results of the latest Sigma 105mm f 2.8 EX DG OS, which should come our way soon!). |
 |
With the FZ150, Panasonic stays the course with another high-end bridge camera. From manual to completely automatic modes, the DMC-FZ150 offers a large choice of options. |
 |
Very wide-angle lenses allow photographers to produce an image composed of a large number of objects and to frame very large subjects (such as buildings) at close proximity, and to photograph objects on different geometrical planes that can be very far apart. Such lenses also accentuate perspective, with the most noticeable result being the distortion of straight lines. |
 |
The Sigma APO MACRO 150mm F2.8 EX DG OS HSM is a large-aperture macro-telephoto lens that integrates Sigma’s Optical Stabilizer (OS) system. This 2010 successor to the APO MACRO 150mm F2.8 EX DG HSM, which came on the market in October 2004, incorporates the latest innovations in optics technology. |
 |
Last year, photography headlines noted a revival of enthusiasm in the old-fashioned camera sector. The most active manufacturers for this segment were Olympus with its PEN camera and Fujifilm, with its Fuji X100 one of the most acclaimed cameras of 2011. |
 |
With 7 different high-end compact camera models launched in 2011, Fujifilm holds the manufacturing record for this segment for 2011. Further, 2012 seems to be starting out just like 2011, with the announcement of the F770 EXR, XS -1, and HS 30 EXR cameras. With this review of the Fujifilm F550 EXR and F600EXR, DxOMark completes its 2011 Fujifilm “collection.” |
 |
When Fujifilm launched the X100, they certainly didn't expect it to raise so much interest among photography enthusiasts. Earlier this week, they announced the Fujifilm XPro1, which more specifically targets this demanding market. |
 |
Today we are publishing the test results of the Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 EX DG APO Macro HSM II (mounted on Canon and Nikon bodies), as well as comparing its performance relative to equivalent lenses on the market. |
 |
Here are the results for the latest camera in Panasonic’s micro-four-thirds line, the Panasonic Lumix DMC GX1. When equipped with a 14-42mm pancake lens and lateral-lever zoom, this is a very compact camera indeed. |
 |
At CES 2012, Canon just announced what could be their answer to the emergence of compact cameras with interchangeable lenses: the Canon PowerShot G1 X. |
 |
Last Friday we had the chance to attend the Nikon press conference introducing the Nikon D4 and lay our hands on a pre-production model used for filming and broadcasting the conference live on the web. |
 |
In response to the announcement of the Canon EOS 1D X, Nikon just unveiled its new flagship camera, the Nikon D4, which replaces the D3s at the top of the Nikon DSLR line-up. This new model features impressive specs: a new 16-Mpix FX sensor with sensitivity up to 200,000 ISO, uncompressed Full HD video recording with autofocus, 11 fps burst mode, improved 51-point autofocus module, face detection, wireless control... |
 |
Announced in June 2011, the Panasonic Lumix DMC GF3 will be of interest to photographers who can afford an easy-to-use compact camera with interchangeable lenses and an image quality superior to that of other compact cameras (such as the Canon Powershot S100). |
 |
Telephoto lenses such as the Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS II USM are used for professional sports or wildlife photography. How does it stack up against an earlier Canon model? Let’s take a look. |
 |
Three years after launching the Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS, Canon is renewing its "telephoto zoom" for APS-C. The Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS II is the counterpart of the Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II in the entry-level range of Canon lenses. Let’s just see how this new version compares with its predecessor. |
 |
In the high-end compact section of the Canon portfolio, the Canon PowerShot S100 succeeds the Canon PowerShot S90 and Canon PowerShot S95. Let's take a closer look at its image quality. |
 |
This new Sigma 12-24mm EX DG HSM II wide-angle zoom for full-frame cameras is a somewhat improved version of the previous lens, the solidly-built Sigma 12-24mm F4.5-5.6 EX DG Canon. |
 |
Ever since we tested the Sony SLT A77, we’ve been very curious to see how the soon-to-be released Sony NEX 7 would compare. And today we have the answer: as we expected, the absence of a mirror gives the NEX7 some advantages. Below is a detailed look. |
 |
A few weeks ago, Nikon announced the Nikon 1 series that we had the chance to test immediately. For this new format of camera, Nikon also designed a completely new format of lenses, the “Nikon 1 mount,” for which we are publishing the measurements today. Nikon put a lot of effort to design lenses that offer the best balance of image quality and portability, and apparently it paid off. Let’s look closely at how these lenses perform compared to their direct competitors. |
 |
With an overall DxOMark score of 47, the Pentax Q is well-placed among cameras with sensors smaller than 4/3. In fact, its results are equivalent to the best compacts in this line (e.g., Canon Powershot G12 and Powershot S95) — not bad at all for a sensor that is smaller than most compact sensors (4.6 x 6.2 mm for the Pentax Q vs 5.8 x 7.9 for the Olympus XZ1). |
 |
The Tamron SP AF 60mm F/2 Di II is an affordable fast lens for macro photography fans. Even if the build quality isn't perfect, its image quality test results are quite satisfying for a lens at that price. Let's have a look at the details. |
 |
The Sony DT 35mm F1.8 SAM, a budget-focused prime lens, is only suitable for use on APS-C dSLRs, but it could be a pretty good choice if you own a Sony APS-C body and don't want to spend too much money on a wide-angle prime lens. Let’s take a closer look. |
