CREATE BETTER VIDEOS

On paper the iPhone 18 Pro and 17 Pro are nearly identical, but for filmmakers and photographers the new sensor, F1.48 variable aperture and bigger vapor chamber make the 18 Pro a massive upgrade. Here's who should buy it and who should keep their phone.

The FX5 can't take photos, and I think that one decision tells us exactly what Sony does next: an a7S IV with the FX5 sensor, a built-in viewfinder, and a price around $4,500.

I recorded 4K 60 on the iPhone 18 Pro and 17 Pro side by side in the Texas sun. Both stopped at exactly eight minutes, but only one kept a usable screen.

The M5 Mac Studio I'd actually buy for video editing at three price points, why Apple's 40-core GPU upgrade really costs $600, and the $3,800 point where you should stop spending on an M5 Max.

Apple got about two thirds of the way to fixing the iPhone's ND filter problem. The variable aperture is a real jump for filmmakers, but the sun stars are baked in.

The Portkeys LH5P III is a 5.7 inch on-camera monitor that changes the settings on up to four other cameras from one screen, wirelessly. Here is how it works and who it is for.
