I’ve been shooting with Delkin BLACK cards for years, and I have to say — when one of these goes on sale, I actually pay attention.

Right now at B&H, the Delkin Devices 512GB BLACK CFexpress Type B 4.0 is down to $349.99 from $534.99. That’s a very healthy $185 savings.

This is the real deal for serious shooters. You’re getting PCIe 4.0 performance with max read speeds up to 3600 MB/s and write speeds up to 3200 MB/s. More importantly, it sustains a ridiculous 2040 MB/s and carries the VPG-400 rating, meaning it won’t choke when you’re hammering 8K RAW, 6K, or high-bitrate 4K.

I’ve trusted Delkin BLACK cards in brutal conditions — deserts, rain, and everything in between. They’re properly rugged (shock, water, and temperature resistant), serialized, and come with Delkin’s legendary limited lifetime warranty plus that awesome 48-hour replacement guarantee. That peace of mind is hard to beat when you’re in the field.

If you’re running a Canon R5 II, Canon R1 or any other high-end body that can actually use CFexpress Type B, this card will keep up without breaking a sweat.

At this price, the 512GB BLACK becomes a lot more tempting compared to the usual suspects. I’ve personally found Delkin’s BLACK series to be one of the more reliable options over the long haul.

If you need fast, tough, high-capacity storage that actually delivers, this deal is worth a look before it disappears.

Canon EOS R6 Mark III vs R6 V: Pick the Right One

Richard @ CanonNews

2026-05-20T21:51:00.0000000 2026-05-20T21:57:08.2070000

Canon dropped two full-frame hybrids in the 2025–2026 cycle that share the same internals but chase completely different users. The R6 Mark III is a proper stills camera that also shoots video. The R6 V is a video tool that can take stills when needed. 

They both pack a 32.5MP full-frame sensor and DIGIC X processor, so raw image quality, color, and autofocus stay consistent. The differences sit in the body design and what they force you to give up.

Brief Specifications Side by Side

How They Actually Feel

The Mark III keeps the familiar EOS R shape. You get an EVF for bright sunlight and precise framing, plus a mechanical shutter that kills rolling shutter distortion and works with flashes. It feels like a refined photography body that happens to shoot strong video.

The R6 V drops the EVF and mechanical shutter entirely. The body is flatter and more compact, built for cages and gimbals. You get a fan for long takes, dual-orientation tripod mounts, a power zoom lever for certain lenses, better vertical video tools, and a screen that rotates cleanly for selfie-style shooting. It’s noticeably more comfortable on a gimbal or for hours of handheld vertical content.

Still Photography - Take the R6 Mark III

Mechanical shutter means real flash sync and cleaner shots of fast action. The EVF matters when you need to compose tightly or work in harsh light. Both cameras hit 40 fps electronic bursts, but only the Mark III handles strobes properly and avoids ugly rolling shutter on quick movement.

The R6 V can shoot stills fine in good conditions, but it’s compromised the moment you need flash or clean action freezing. If photography pays your bills or forms half your work, don’t buy the V.

Video and Content Creation - Take the R6 V

The active cooling changes everything for solo creators. You can run long interviews, live streams, or event coverage without constant overheating worries. The ergonomics for vertical video and gimbal work are clearly better. Open-gate recording, waveform tools, and the rotating interface feel built for actual daily creator workflows.

The Mark III is still very good for video, but you’ll hit thermal limits faster in 7K or high-frame-rate work. It’s a strong hybrid, not a dedicated long-form machine.

Other Details That Matter

Both use the same LP-E6P batteries and dual card slots (CFexpress + SD). Build quality and weather sealing are close. The R6 V’s lighter, flatter shape works better inside cages and with creator accessories.

Real talk: many people will want both. One body for proper photo jobs, one for dedicated video runs. If you have to choose one, the decision is simple — what do you shoot more, and which compromises will actually bite you?

• Heavy stills work, events, flash, or you just like an EVF? → R6 Mark III.
• Long video takes, vertical content, gimbal, run-and-gun solo work? → R6 V.

The shared sensor means you’re not sacrificing image quality either way. You’re choosing the tool that gets out of your way for the jobs you actually do.

Canon Announces Price Increases on 12 Interchangeable Lens Cameras, 47 Lenses, and 4 Compact Cameras in Japan

Richard @ CanonNews

2026-05-19T21:59:00.0000000 2026-05-19T22:18:31.4500000

Canon Marketing Japan is set to raise prices on several imaging products from May 21, 2026 (Thursday). This includes 12 interchangeable-lens camera bodies, 47 RF and EF lenses, and four compact fixed-lens cameras. Some accessories and binoculars have already had their prices adjusted on April 23, 2026.

As per the announcement, Canon claims to have made great internal efforts to cover the increasing costs as long as possible. However, continuing rises in material, manufacturing, and other costs have forced the company to make further price adjustments.

These adjustments are expected to hit more affordable and mid-range interchangeable-lens camera bodies and a wide variety of lenses. Popular entry-level and enthusiast models are expected to see increased prices, whereas some of the flagship models, such as the EOS R5 Mark II, are not affected at all in this round. The reported increases are likely to be in the range of several percent up to about 10%, depending on the specific model. Due to the prevalence of open pricing, the actual price increase may vary from one retailer to another.

This step follows recent trends in the electronics industry due to rising costs worldwide. Official Canon PDF documents with detailed lists of before and after prices have been published.

Consumers in Japan considering buying any of the affected cameras or lenses are advised to check the current prices and availability prior to the date of implementation. Further developments will clarify if any similar price adjustments will take place in other countries, including the US, Europe, and Asia.

The New Panasonic Lumix L10 and Canon’s Glaring Compact Vacuum

Richard @ CanonNews

2026-05-17T21:23:00.0000000 2026-05-17T21:32:07.7000000

In case anyone doubts how relevant this category is even after decades of advancements in the smartphone realm, Panasonic's recent announcement of the Lumix L10 can serve as an interesting example. As a true successor of sorts to the LX100 lineage, the L10 features a high-end 26.5MP BSI CMOS sensor that's capable of recording up to 4K30p, which just happens to be the same exact sensor found in Panasonic's top-tier video cameras. That's coupled with the Leica 24-75mm equivalent f/1.7-2.8 lens. All of that is priced at $1,500. Needless to say, we have a very high-quality, professional tool that offers modern phase-detection autofocus, subject-tracking powered by AI, and a metal body right there for only a few hundred dollars more than a decent smartphone.

Now that we know there is a lot of potential left in premium fixed-lens cameras despite all the advancements in smartphones, we can take a glance at Canon's current product lineup and note the lack of offerings for a customer who is looking to buy an equivalent device. PowerShot G7 X Mark III looks quite dated at this point, and the PowerShot G1 X Mark III has been out of production for years without a proper follow-up.  The PowerShot V1 was released, but it has primarily video-oriented specifications and design.

While companies such as Fujifilm dominate the news and backlog thanks to the X100VI or Ricoh targets the enthusiasts with GR III, Canon decided to focus on developing the RF and RF-S lens systems instead, and play lip service to the Powershot cameras.  Again, no indication here that the company cares about those who are willing to spend extra on a compact camera body and lens combo for those who prefer smaller cameras without the bulk of mirrorless cameras and interchangeable lenses.

All things considered, Canon has everything it needs to revive the high-end PowerShot line, and Panasonic is doing just fine with its Lumix L10. For starters, Canon has the arguably class-leading Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system in terms of performance. In addition, Canon has a history of producing premium lenses for various formats and is renowned for delivering stellar results in terms of color accuracy. So, if Canon decides to go back to manufacturing a premium integrated lens camera, it might be a good idea for it to utilize the same approach as in the case of the Panasonic L10.

The resulting PowerShot could potentially become a worthy competitor to many mirrorless bodies out there because, thanks to its small footprint and the ability to capture stunning images, it will be able to appeal to those enthusiasts who prefer carrying their gear in a pocket rather than in a backpack.  Maybe that's why Canon doesn't want to create it.

If Canon does create such a camera, it will be an exciting product to see from Canon and one in which I'd personally love to see soon.
