Time to Clean & Check your DSLR Camera’s Sensor & Lenses

FOTO FORUM Camera Video, Foto Forum AZ Posted on January 3, 2017 by JeffJanuary 3, 2017

If you’re using an DSLR camera, you’ll eventually require a “Clean & Check” to remove dust spots you encounter due to a dirty camera sensor.  When it occurs it is the result of sensor dust and you’ll need to know how to clean the sensor, and how to minimize the risk of this happening again. What does Sensor Dust look like? A dirty camera sensor is most apparent in smooth, light regions, such as bright skies: Visually check your sensor by taking a photo that includes the sky, Example A, or if in a studio a white or a white/off-white wall. Then import … Continue reading →

Keeping Your Camera Updated & Clean

FOTO FORUM Camera Video, Foto Forum AZ Posted on September 27, 2015 by JeffOctober 23, 2015

At Larmon, we believe a little camera maintenance goes a long way – consider it a small time investment to ensure you are ready to take advantage of every photo opportunity that crosses your path. Most of us are used to traditional maintenance, like keeping your optics clean.  Many of us however, forget that our digital cameras are mini computers. Aside from when you first bought your camera, when was the last time you updated your camera’s firmware? Your camera’s firmware is the software residing on your digital camera that is responsible for handling image processing. Actually, firmware controls a … Continue reading →

Once KEH has reviewed your gear, we will call you with their offer.You will then have three options: Accept the cash offer, accept Foto Forum store credit plus 10%, or decline the offer and pick up your gearA few important notes: This is not a same-day, wait-in-the-lobby type of event. Please do not plan to stay while your gear is being evaluated. Drop it off, receive your claim ticket, and we will contact you once the review is complete.Also, we will not be itemizing or inventorying individual gear at drop-off. If you would like a personal record of what you brought in, we strongly encourage you to document your gear before leaving it with us.Gear drop-off begins Wednesday, July 15th, at 9:00 AM, and we will stop accepting gear on Saturday, July 18th, at 3:00 PM sharp.

Thirty years of PowerShot deserves something a little… spicy. 😏🔥Meet the 30th-Anniversary Limited Edition Graphite version of the Canon G7 X Mark III — a compact that’s been famously hard to keep in stock because it straight-up went viral with creators and travel shooters.What makes this anniversary edition special (besides the flex)?A graphite finish, 30th-anniversary logo, and a premium diamond/twill-patterned front ring that screams “collector… but make it street.”Limited quantities, scheduled for April 2026, with the kit priced at $1,299.And yes—the magic inside stays the same (because it already works): 20.1MP 1” stacked sensor + DIGIC 8, a 24–100mm equivalent f/1.8–2.8 zoom, 4K 30p, a flip-up touchscreen, mic input, and up to 20 fps bursts.Bonus kit love: it includes a Peak Design wrist strap and an SD card (so you can start creating immediately).Why it’s still relevant in 2026? Because not everyone wants to lug a full rig everywhere. This is the “pocket rocket” for travel, daily carry, vlogging, and “I need content right now” moments—whether you’ve shot Canon forever or you’re just jumping into the PowerShot world for the first time. 🚀📸🎥Swing by Foto Forum and let’s talk compacts—this one’s a celebration and a creator tool. 🙌My friends, don’t forget to have a fantastically blessed day wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, and never stop being amazing.Remember:Keep on creating.The image you captured today,Can change the world tomorrow.Remember:Be kind to yourself and others.Be amazing stewards on the trail.And we have to ask, What are you waiting for? 'Get Out, Arizona!”We will see you on the next adventure.www.youtube.com/@GetOutArizona#CanonPowerShot #G7XMarkIII #CompactCamera #VloggingCamera #FotoForumPhoenix ... See MoreSee Less

Friendly reminder, my friends: Foto Forum will be closed Saturday, July 4, in observance of Independence Day and the 250th anniversary of the United States of America. 🇺🇸📸We will be open during normal business hours on Friday, July 3, and we will reopen for normal business hours on Monday, July 6.A little history nugget for the day: the Fourth of July celebrates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. Fun fact, despite what many of us were taught in school, most of the signing actually happened later. History likes to keep things spicy.So if you need film, memory cards, batteries, chargers, cleaning supplies, or any “oh no, I forgot that thing” gear before the holiday weekend, stop in and see us ahead of time. If you have questions, feel free to contact the shop by phone or through social media.Have a safe, joyful, and meaningful Fourth of July weekend, my friends.My friends, don’t forget to have a fantastically blessed day wherever you are, whatever you’re doing, and never stop being amazing.Remember: Keep on creating. Because the images you capture today can definitely change the world tomorrow!Remember:�Be kind to yourself and others.�Be amazing stewards on the trail.�And we have to ask, What are you waiting for? 'Get Out, Arizona!”�We will see you on the next adventure.www.youtube.com/@GetOutArizona#FotoForumPhoenix #FourthOfJuly #IndependenceDay #ShopLocalPhoenix #PhotographyGear ... See MoreSee Less
