The Always Home Cam could be (re)launching soon in “limited quantities,” according to Business Insider. The publication cites sources who say that recently returned CEO Jamie Siminoff has been testing the indoor flying camera in his office and plans to make it available soon.

CEO and founder Nick Woodman told fans years ago that the company’s next GoPro Max camera would be “worth the wait,” and it has been a long wait since the first model launched in 2019. Now, it has posted a few promo images of the GoPro Max 2 on Instagram, backing up the claim that this camera will launch in 2025.

GoPro has released another limited edition color option of its Hero 13 Black action camera, following the polar white version that debuted last March. It’s now available in forest green but otherwise functionally the same as the standard model.

Leica is announcing a special edition of its screen-less digital rangefinder camera alongside several other retro-styled limited editions. They commemorate the 100th anniversary of the original Leica I production camera (after it celebrated another centennial back in 2014).

The Vera C. Rubin Observatory has released the first images taken by its Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) camera — the largest digital camera ever made — ahead of starting its 10-year survey of the southern sky. You can read up on details about these shots in PetaPixel’s report, and more images and video will be released later today following a Rubin Observatory livestream at 11AM ET.

Fujifilm’s been quiet about its upcoming medium format cinema camera, but it’s trickling out just 10 initial features. These include: an optical lowpass filter, available sensor formats, in-camera codecs, custom LUTs, film simulations, film simulation-based 3D LUTs, custom framing guidelines, remote multi-camera control, Bluetooth, and LCD / on-board menu display specs.

The price increase will take effect on June 23rd, 2025, according to a statement Nikon shared to its website.

Well, as Jalopnik points out while referring its readers to the below video of a Volvo EX90’s Lidar scanner wrecking a camera sensor on the iPhone 16 Pro Max filming it, doing so can be “the technological equivalent of staring directly into the sun.”

Leica is giving its flagship digital rangefinder the olive green treatment. Leica’s been making the occasional olive green camera since the 1970s, though there hasn’t been one quite this expensive — likely due in part to recent price hikes from tariffs.

Abe Kislevitz — GoPro’s senior creative director, who frequently shows off what the company’s latest cameras are capable of — posted some fabulous 360-degree photographs to his Threads and Instagram accounts. Kislevitz had previously said that GoPro will be launching a successor to its OG Max action camera this year. How interesting.

In addition to a camera grip with an extra battery and camera controls, Vivo is following companies like Xiaomi and Realme with an external zoom lens for its upcoming X200 Ultra that launches in China on April 21st.

For three years in a row Xiaomi has paired its Ultra phones with a Photography Kit, and now Vivo is following suit. The kit, which will be compatible with the upcoming X200 Ultra, was announced on Weibo by product manager Han Boxiao. Like Xiaomi’s it has a USB-C connection, built-in battery, and dedicated camera controls.
