The company is best known for lenses and lighting accessories, but it recently shared a video of its first camera, the TTArtisan 203T that shoots on Fujifilm Instax mini film with a folding lens and manual focus.

Is this the DJI Osmo Pocket 4?

According to The New Camera, a customer walked into a DJI Authorized drone store in Malaysia to show off the new baby steadicam. The store in question seems to have taken its own videos off Instagram and TikTok, but New Camera uploaded this copy. There’s a slim chance we could get this one in the US.

Fujifilm’s big cinema camera is now IMAX-certified.

The Fujifilm GFX Eterna 55 is now the eighth digital camera to be approved for Filmed for IMAX duties, thanks in part to its tall 4:3 sensor. The other seven digital IMAX cameras are made by Arri, Panavision, Red, and Sony.

I wonder what James Cameron’s favorite film simulation would be?
