MELVILLE, N.Y. (Dec. 21, 2009) – Nikon Corporation (Michio Kariya, President) is pleased to announce that the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has placed an order for eleven D3S digital SLR cameras and seven AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED lenses to be used for photographic documentation.

Space: The final frontier—for Nikon, anyway. The camera company's relationship with NASA has just got steamier, as they're supplying 11 D3s DSLRs and seven AF-S NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8G ED lenses for their space photography. It's not the first time they've worked together, with the Nikon Photomic FTN actually used on Apollo 15 back in 1971, but it's nice to see that NASA's taste in camera models has got more expensive over the years. The D3s...

Compacts are generally held out in front of the photographer who checks the framing via the camera’s LCD screen. DSLRs, on the other hand, are often still used with the photographer’s face mashed up against the rear of...

I love this camera! about 4 years ago, my hubby bought me a Sony cybershot. It took great photos but was a little confusing with its features and how to set them. It also broke after 3 years and wasnt worth the money to fix it. I have been searching for a camera and decided on the Nikon coolpix for its ease of use and many features available. Also, Ace Camera/Amazon.com had a wonderful deal on the Nikon Coolpix 10 megapixel camera. The...

We love technology here at Fast Company. And we're big on design too. Which is partly what makes RED's digital cameras quite so awesome, since they mix the two exquisitely. And the newly official RED Scarlet may even change the DSLR game too.
RED has been hyping the Scarlet for over a year, and it's taken until now for the company to make the device official. Partly that's been due to tweaks and improvements, and partly (as the demise of the...
We'll admit we save our Nikon excitement for the sort of gear that comes with "bad mother" stitched into its casing, but sometimes even our jaded souls can get intrigued by a compact.

With a 5x optical zoom, 12 megapixel sensor, and 720p/30fps video, it's...

Previous reviews haven't been all smiles, but we're finally able to pick up Nikon's Coolpix S70 and see for ourselves. On form factor alone, it's a pretty alluring build -- even the faux leather front is tastefully done. While the tap-to-focus feature is a nice addition, we're less enthused about the OLED screen's viewing angles when outside -- and seeing as we've go no other way to see the memories we're framing, that's pretty disappointing...

I do a lot of photography with my dSLR but I like to have a flexible point and shoot with me when I don't have the dSLR. I also have been interested in shooting videos lately and have tried a Aiptek Go-HD and a Sanyo HD700.
I like the form factor of the Z1285. It handles better than my Kodak V550 and it really isn't much bigger. Yes it is a little thicker. The z1285 has a lot of pre-set modes and a full manual mode that works quite well. It...
