With smartphone cameras improving all the time, spending money on compact cameras seems less and less attractive. Nevertheless, major players like Nikon and Canon are still releasing them, and the latter has just updated a couple of its G-series PowerShots with some interesting features.

​Canon has updated 2017's Rebel SL2 entry-level DSLR, retaining a similar megapixel count for the sensor but upgrading the image processor, improving battery life and adding 4K video recording. The Rebel SL3 also becomes the smallest and lightest EOS DSLR in the current lineup.​

Smartphone cameras are great for a quick snap, butwe can't easily print them out and stick them to a fridge door. That's where Polaroid digital instants come in. Canon has now nudged its way into the instant party with the Ivy Cliq+ Instant and Ivy Cliq Instant cameras.

​In September 2018, Canon revealed its first full-frame mirrorless camera, the EOS R. Now the R series has got a second member in the shape of the more compact EOS RP, which is being aimed at "amateur and advanced amateur photographers."​

There's no place better in the world than Photokina if you want to completely drown yourself in the equipment, culture and business of photography. We spent a couple of days putting together this giant gallery to give you a sense of what the world's biggest camera nerd expo is all about.

​Canon has announced an upgrade to the now four year-old SX60 HS compact superzoom. Though the focal length remains unchanged, the image sensor and processor of the PowerShot SX70 HS have been updated, along with the electronic viewfinder and video recording capabilities.

​After a short teaser campaign last month, Nikon announced not one, but two new Z system full-frame mirrorless cameras. And today Canon has revealed the EOS R system. The first camera to sport the new system name is a 30 MP full-frame mirrorless camera, which also debuts a new lens mount system.​

​With a smartphone camera in just about every pocket, compact camera makers are having to rely on big zoom lenses and pixel-packed video prowess to convince consumers to buy dedicated snappers. Such is the case with Canon's upcoming PowerShot SX740 HS.

Canon first revealed its ultrahigh-sensitivity CMOS image sensor back in 2010, where its gargantuan proportions were given as 202 x 205 mm. Now the sensor has been used to record video of meteors at a level "so dark that image capture had not been possible until now."

After 80-odd years making film cameras, Canon has finally, officially discontinued the last remaining click-and-wind in its lineup. The EOS-1V, the last of its kind, will continue to be supported until 2025 – seems this digital thing really did take off.

Back in 2014, Canon stunned pro videographers with an absolute monster of a lens. The Cine-Servo put top-grade glass behind camcorder-like controls to offer unprecedented flexibility. And it only came to be after a wildlife videographer laid down a challenge.

​When using a flash, photographers will quite often tilt its head up, bouncing the light off the ceiling for a softer effect. Figuring out the best angle at which to bounce it, however, can sometimes be tricky. That's why Canon has developed the auto-tilting Speedlite 470EX-AI flash.
