Action cameras are typically designed to be used while mounted or attached to some kind of support, like a selfie stick. Their ergonomics aren’t ideal for handheld use, which is why Insta360 has launched a new Xplorer Grip Kit for its Ace Pro and Pro 2 cameras.

After debuting last September with upgrades that included magnetic mounting and charging, a higher capacity battery, and three new lenses, the GoPro Hero 13 Black is now available in Polar White. The last time GoPro offered a white colorway was the Dusk White version of the Hero 7 Black in 2019.

With a leather back and textured metal frame, Fotorgear’s new $199 case makes the iPhone 16 Pro or Pro Max look and feel like a retro camera. But it goes one step further with a modular design letting its side rails be swapped for more functional alternatives.

Photographer Charles Brooks is known for his captivating photos inside musical instruments, so Australia’s ANSTO invited him to capture the inside of a new part being installed on its synchotron particle accelerator.

There are rumors that Fujifilm will expand its medium format camera offerings with a fixed-lens compact GFX1000RF, akin an X100VI with a much larger 100-megapixel sensor. Fujifilm teased a new camera in the video for its upcoming X Summit, and Fujirumors has posted two leaked images showing more.

Arriving sometime in April 2025 for around $45, the InstantSnap features a fun design resembling a photo that just popped out of a Polaroid camera. Inside its white frame is a transparent viewfinder with framing guides, but there’s no screen, and images and videos are saved to a microSD card.

The successor to our favorite instant camera for retro fans is available in six new colors, up from three, and starts at $119.99. Other improvements include a built-in tripod, while autofocus upgrades, a better light meter position, and an improved ranging sensor should result in sharper photos. I’ll be sharing my thoughts after I test the camera soon, so stay tuned.
