The Canon Speedlite 470EX-AI is the world’s first flashgun equipped with Artifical Intelligent Bounce. It intelligently calculates and maneuvers the flash head position automatically to create optimum lighting for outstanding images, by using a test flash to calculate the perfect angle for natural, flattering illumination, whilst automatically moving the motorised flash head into the optimum position for perfect lighting. 

Note that while it is compatible with all EOS products, the AI Bounce full-auto mode on the Canon Speedlite 470EX-AI will only work with EOS models built after 2014 - excluding EOS 2000D, EOS 4000D, 1300D, EOS M6, EOS M5 and EOS M3.

One of the main criticisms that we've seen aimed at the Fujifilm X-H1 since its launch last week is about its size, with lots of online comments that it's just too big for a mirrorless camera.

To that end, we've gathered a number of different cameras from the far-flung corners of the Photography Blog office, lined them up one-by-one next to the X-H1, and shot each combination from various angles to give you an idea of how they compare in real life.

The cameras are: Fujifilm X-T2, Fujifilm GFX, Panasonic GH5S, Sony A7R II, Sony A6500, Canon EOS 5DSR, Canon EOS 5D Mark III and the Canon EOS 80D.

Remember, this isn't meant to be a scientific test of the X-H1 - we don't have obvious rivals like the the Olympus O-MD E-M1 II to hand - but it does give you an idea of how it compares to cameras from most of the various systems available today (APS-C mirroless, Medium Format, Micro Four Thirds, 35mm Full-frame mirrorless, 35mm Full-frame DSLR, APS-C DSLR).

Take a look and let us know what you think in the comments section - is the Fujifilm X-H1 too big for its boots, or is its size irrelevant?

Ricoh USA/Europe have announced a rather unique upgrade service for owners of the original Pentax K-1 DSLR - they will replace the camera's main circuit board and the logo on the front, and voila, you have yourself a K-1 Mark II. 

Could this be the future of high-end cameras, where the body remains the same and the "brain" is swapped out for a more capable version? Or is it merely indicative of the small number of changes that Pentax have made in the 2 years since the original K-1 was launched (the more cynical view)?

The upgrade service will cost $550USD / $690 CAD / £450 and be done for a limited time from May 21, 2018 – September 30, 2018.
