At its heart is a 61-megapixel, full-frame, back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS sensor — but that's far from the only notable improvement in the Sony A7R IV. Thanks to its latest-generation Bionz X processor and AI, it offers real-time tracking of both eyes and subjects, across both still photography and video, ensuring that your subject's face is always tack sharp. It also enables 10fps burst shooting with full tracking, using the 567 focal-plane phase-detection and 425 contrast AF points. A 5.76 million dot OLED electronic viewfinder makes framing shots a breeze, and a new multi-interface hot shoe lets you capture outstanding digital audio to match the full pixel readout, Super 35mm 4K video.

Sigma fp Camera

Measuring just 4.3" x 2.75" x 1.78" and weighing just 13 oz., the Sigma fp is the world's smallest, lightest full-frame mirrorless camera. Its 24.6-megapixel Bayer sensor is backlit for superior low-light capability, while the body is made from die-cast aluminum alloy and sealed on 42 points to create a weatherproof structure. An electric shutter structure enables 18 frames/sec shooting, and 12-bit CinemaDNG external recording at 4K UHD/24fps produces film-quality video data via the USB 3.1 port. It uses L-Mount lenses, so in addition to Sigma's own line, it can use compatible glass from Leica and Panasonic. The fp will launch later this fall.

Fujifilm Neopan 100 Acros II Film

As digital photography grew, analog photography waned, leading to the discontinuation of many beloved films, Fujifilm's Acros among them. Thanks to growing demand, Fujifilm is bringing it back in the form of Neopan 100 Acros II. Using Fujifilm's proprietary Super Fine-Σ technology, it offers incredibly fine grain, sharpness, and gradation, beyond even its predecessor. The film will be released in Japan in 35mm and 120 formats this fall, with other markets to follow based on demand.

Fujifilm GFX100 Medium Format Camera

Merging the handling of a mirrorless with the resolution of a medium format camera, the Fujifilm GFX100 breaks new ground in several areas. While it handles more like the company's smaller X-series cameras, its body is a hefty, weather-resistant 6-inch square weighing in at roughly 3 lbs. Its 55mm back-side illuminated sensor offers 102 megapixels of resolution — a first for a mirrorless camera — and has 5-axis image-stabilization and on-board phase detection AF, two more firsts. 4K video recording, a quad-core image processor, and Fuji's legendary color reproduction round out the feature list, one that's especially impressive for the price.

GoPro Hero7 Black Camera

GoPro's increased competition from drones and phones has hurt its bottom line. The Hero7 Black is here to change that. Its headline feature is HyperSmooth, a technology the company is touting as the "best in-camera video stabilization ever", able to work even in situations where gimbals fail. While it contributes to the silky-smooth 4K/60p video output, it also enables the new TimeWarp time-lapse video feature. Real-time live streaming is also on-board, as is automatic transfer to your phone, a new SuperPhoto mode that automatically applies HDR, local tone mapping, and multi-frame NR to your 12-megapixel stills, and 1080/240p slow-motion. Waterproof to 33 feet without a housing and outfitted with voice and touch controls, it's the best GoPro in years.

Peak Design Travel Tripod

There's nothing like a tripod for ensuring a tack sharp shot — but it won't do you any good if you don't have it with you. The goal of Peak Design's Travel Tripod is to always be on hand. In an effort to eliminated dead space, the legs and center column nest perfectly together, resulting in a packed diameter of 3.25 inches — about the same as a water bottle. Despite this, it extends to 58.5 inches tall, with a reimagined ball head that offers 360-degree adjustment with a single adjustment ring. A quick-release plate makes attaching everything from smartphones to DSLRs a snap, and a built-in bubble level and counterweight hook make sure it has all the features necessary right out of the box. Available with carbon fiber or aluminum alloy legs, weighing 2.8 or 3.4 lbs., respectively.

Reto 3D Film Camera

"3D" photography has been around since the 1840s, moving from the stereoscope to 3D glasses to lenticular prints. The Reto 3D Film Camera aims to bring this time-honored medium into the digital age. Using a trio of 30mm, f/11 lenses, it captures three half-frame images at once, recording them to standard 35mm film. Once processed, a companion app compiles them into a 3D image, creating GIF files that move to show the different angles. A built-in, AA-powered flash enables nighttime use and the sturdy ABS body weighs under half a pound, making it easy to carry.

Leica M 246 Monochrom Your Mark Camera

Designed in collaboration with Horween specifically to patina and wear quickly, this special version of Leica's M 246 Monochrom will look battle-tested in short order. Part of that is due to the black lacquer paint, which should brass rapidly and can be found on both the body and matching Leica 35mm f2.0 Summicron-M lens, and the rest is due to the Horween leather, which wraps around the camera and makes up the matching strap. Limited to just 80 units, it's available exclusively from the Leica Store in San Francisco.

Leica Q2 Camera

Marrying a full-frame sensor to a fixed 28mm Summilux lens, the Q quickly earned a spot in the pantheon of most beloved Leica releases. The Q2 doesn't mess with this formula — it just improves it in every possible way. The sensor has seen its resolution increased 95% to 47.3 megapixels, with built-in crop modes to mimic 35, 50, and 75mm shots. The robust body receives IP52-certified weather sealing, battery life is improved 30%, a new lag-free OLED viewfinder allows for precise composition, and the improved Maestro II processor enables 4K UHD and Cine4K video recording and 10 fps burst shooting. The result is possibly the best lightweight everyday carry camera ever created, and a reminder that for those who value their photos, a smartphone alone will never be "good enough".

It ups the resolution of the APS-C sensor from 16 to 24 megapixels while adding sensor-shift image stabilization and a new hybrid AF system that promises faster focus and improved low-light capability. The 28mm equivalent f/2.8 lens has been redesigned, the I/O upgraded to USB-C, and the rear 3.0-inch LCD is now a touchscreen, letting you tap to focus. Despite all the upgrades, the camera is actually a hair smaller than its predecessors — but while it may be pocket-sized, its specs, controls, and price put it firmly in the domain of seasoned shutterbugs.
