In October, Canon announced the RF 24mm F1.4 L VCM, a lens intended to appeal to both photo and video shooters. We shot a sample gallery with it to see how it performs in a variety of scenarios.
While shooting, we used the aperture control ring, which was only possible because we shot the gallery with a Canon EOS R5 II. The majority of Canon’s RF cameras, such as the original EOS R5, R7, R6 II, and others, will only accept input from the aperture ring when shooting in video mode, not in stills mode. It’s also worth noting that the ring is completely clickless, and can’t be switched to a clicked mode.

Fujifilm’s X-M5 is an entry-level mirrorless APS-C camera that’s a solid, though not perfect, choice for beginners.
Sony’s Alpha 1 II adds pre-capture and improved autofocus to its high-speed, high-res pro mirrorless model.
The Lumix S9 is Panasonic’s newest full-frame mirrorless camera. It allows users to create their own custom looks for out-of-camera colors and is the first full-frame Lumix camera aimed squarely at social media content creators.
The Nikon Z50 II adds a color profile button – sound familiar? – 3D tracking, cloud connectivity, and more.

Our DPREVIEW Tribute:
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview closed on 10 April 2023. This difficult decision was part of the annual operating plan review that parent company, Amazon, shared earlier this year.
Over the course of 25 years, DP Review built up a reputation as being one of the most informative places to go for information about that new camera or lens you’re after. DP Review began as an independent reviews site based in the UK in 1998, the brainchild of Philip and Joanna Askey, but it was eventually purchased by Amazon in 2007 and relocated over to Seattle in the USA in 2010.
Cheers DPReview – thanks for the great work and content that guided photographers, videographers and techno junkies the world over!
