As avid travelers, we’re always on the lookout for cameras that can help capture unforgettable moments. Sigma is shaking up the camera industry with the launch of the BF, a radically simplified 24-megapixel full-frame L-Mount camera designed for photographers who value a pure shooting experience. Sigma’s vision for the BF is refreshingly simple: a high-performance camera that brings photographers closer to their craft. With an intuitive, minimalist design, it eliminates unnecessary complexity, allowing users to focus on framing, composition, and capturing the moment.

Despite its simplicity, the BF is packed with high-performance features. It boasts a hybrid autofocus system with phase and contrast detection for precise subject tracking, 6K video recording with L-Log support, and 13 unique color modes for creative flexibility. The 230GB internal storage eliminates the hassle of memory cards, while USB-C connectivity ensures fast file transfers and charging. According to Sigma, the BF’s storage capacity can accommodate over 14,000 JPEGs, 4,300 uncompressed RAW files, or 2.5 hours of video.

That’s not all – Sigma has also reimagined controls, reducing clutter to just three primary buttons: a single dial, the power button, and a shutter release. Plus, a new minimalist menu system ensures quick adjustments without distractions, making it easy to stay focused on the shot. 

The camera’s L-Mount compatibility allows photographers to use a wide range of lenses from Sigma and other L-Mount partners. With a lightweight 388g body, an ISO range of 100-102400, and subject detection for people, dogs, and cats, the BF is tailored for both enthusiasts and professionals seeking an intuitive, high-performance camera. 

Scheduled for release in April 2025, the Sigma BF will retail for $1,999.

Air travel can often seem like a means to an end. You must journey hundreds or thousands of miles, and comfort takes a back seat to reaching your destination. But cramped, crowded cabins can feel like riding a school bus, making a flight something to endure rather than enjoy.

But what if an airplane cabin were a tailored space akin to a luxury hotel? What if designers considered every aspect, from the lighting to the dimensions to the materials, to ensure the in-flight experience was something to look forward to?
