Earlier we reported on a rumored that Nikon could be looking to announce new cameras at CES 2014, such as the Nikon D4 and the Nikon D3300. We’re still waiting for an official announcement of sorts but until then, it looks like the folks over at Tom’s Guide might have let the cat out of the bag a little earlier than expected when they accidentally published an article related to the upcoming Nikon D3300. Presumably the article was under embargo and the post has since been removed (you can view the cached post above), but it does highlight some of the Nikon D3300’s features as well as provide us with a look as to what the camera could look like.
According to their post, the Nikon D3300 is the successor to the D3200 which was introduced last year. Some of the D3300’s specs includes an upgrade to 5fps shooting from 4fps from the Nikon D3200, an Expeed 4 chip to power the camera, ISO sensitivity increased from 12,800 to 25,600, video capture at 1080p Full HD at 60fps with 24 and 30fps options available as well, a new panorama mode, and will not sport an optical low-pass filter. Oddly enough despite the D3300 being a successor to the D3200, the latter will not be discontinued, so for those looking for an entry level camera but don’t need all the bells and whistles, perhaps the D3200 could be an affordable option.

[CES 2014] If there’s one thing that new photographers tend to be confused about is why are lenses considered good for portraits typically of the prime variety that are quite zoomed in? Well one of the reasons is because it allows photographers to frame the face/neck/shoulders of their subject nicely, plus there are some photographers who feel that prime lenses are less complex compared to zoom lenses, which means that they can be cheaper and even sharper than regular zoom lens. Well if you’re after a portrait lens, you might be very interested in Fujifilm’s recently announced FUJINON XF56mmF1.2 R lens, which is an 85mm equivalent lens that Fujifilm is calling perfect for portrait photography.
[CES 2014] Our smartphones and tablets these days are able to snap hundreds, if not thousands of photos, and thanks to internet being widely available these days, sharing photos can be done in an instant to anyone around the world. However there is also the charm of being able to print photos and collecting them in a scrap book or framing them up on the wall, which is where Fujifilm’s INSTAX SHARE S-! printer comes in.
CES 2014 is taking place this week and we’re looking forward to learning about a bunch of new devices that will be debuting at the event. We expect manufacturers to unveil all sorts of cool technological innovations and if the rumors are to be believed, Nikon is expected to make an announcement at CES as well and could very well announce a successor to the

[CES 2014] These days form is starting to become a priority amongst manufacturers, who might have in the past created productions that focused more on function. Those aren’t necessarily bad traits to have but if you wanted something that looked good and functioned equally well, Fujifilm has recently announced the X100S which will be coming in an all black design, giving the camera a somewhat sleek and elegant look. For those hearing about the
[CES 2014] Smartphones are ideal to take photos with since we carry them with us all the time, not to mention that for the most part, most smartphones are compact in size, making them easy to slip into the pocket too. However using our smartphone for photos can be draining on its battery, not to mention dedicated cameras usually have more functions and have the ability to snap better quality images too, which is why if you’re after something slim and compact, the Fujifilm FinePix S8600 could be the camera you’re after, and with it priced at $229.95, it certainly is pretty affordable too.
[CES 2014] While most of us might think of cameras as devices used to capture moments and to snap photos of our food, there are professionals out there who use cameras to document events, such as nature, wars, natural disasters, and etc. Those professionals typically require cameras that are rugged and can resist the elements, such as water, which is why if you’re after such a camera, Fujifilm has announced the FinePix S1, which they are calling the world’s first “weather resistant” super zoom bridge camera that is able to withstand both rain and dust.
[CES 2014] Taking photos in the moment can be difficult unless you have your camera already in hand and happen to be quick enough to snap a photo before the moment has passed. Unfortunately for the most part, smartphones, tablets, and even dedicated cameras need time to start up the camera system which means that by the time we want to snap an image, the moment has passed. If you’re looking for a camera that will be able to start up quickly, you might be interested in Fujifilm’s FinePix S9400W and S9200. According to Fujifilm, both cameras are able to start up in just 1 second, and will have an autofocus time of 0.3 seconds and will be ready to take the next shot in 0.5 seconds, allowing photographers to fire off a series of snaps with little downtime.
