Storm chasers Justin Cox and Chance Coldiron were just a few hundred yards away when the massive tornado that eventually struck Moore, Oklahoma first touched down. They captured the first 10 minutes of the tornado as it grew to a massive size and watched it cross the interstate just in front of them. They appeared to be directly in touch with the local radio station in an effort to warn Moore residents of the tornado’s projected path and vicious intensity. Major kudos to Justin and Chance for sticking in there to capture such amazing footage while keeping residents in the loop.

Leica is teasing us with a new camera to be announced on June 11, 2013. The new model is positioned between the Leica M and the X2 (awfully dubbed for this marketing campaign as the Micro M) and code named the “Mini M.” Let’s see: an APS-C image sensor, interchangeable lens, EVF. It could also be simply a slightly less speced Leica M (e.g. retaining a FF sensor) though it is unfortunate that the marketing people went with the term “Mini” which triggers a very negative connotation in most people.

In the last few days, three more camera bodies -- the D700, D300, and D300s -- have been made compatible with that lens, while one of Nikon's compact Coolpix models has had an exposure bug squashed. The Nikon D700 and D300 date back to 2008, while the D300s arrived on the market in 2009 -- not quite as long-in-the-tooth as the oldest of the cameras updated... (read more)
