Lifelogging cameras have gone by the wayside, but apparently Google never received the memo. Alongside the launch of the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL, Google announced the release of a new device called Google Clips.
As the name suggests, Google Clips is a small lifelogging camera designed to clip onto objects and record life as it happens, keeping only the best moments for you to save and cherish.
The square device weighs just 60.5 grams and measures 49mm, making it roughly the size of similar lifelogging cameras. On the front of the camera is a large, protruding camera lens that captures 130-degree field of view through an f/2.4 aperture.
At the heart of the camera is an A.I. engine designed specifically to capture the details of life in the best quality possible. Using machine learning, the camera captures 15 frames per second and pulls out the sharpest, most important details. You can manually sort through the photos it chooses and save the ones you want.
It can even learn the faces of people you capture the most and learn to prioritize those particular images. If that thought is a little scary, don’t fret — all of this processing is done in-camera.
The sole button on the device is a large shutter button on the front of the camera. Although Google Clips can stand on its own, there’s a clip case included for mounting the camera on just about anything you can imagine, from the pocket of your shirt to your dog’s collar.
Google Clips has 16GB of onboard storage and files stored on the device can be transferred to Android devices running Android 7.0 Nougat or later using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.
You can currently sign up through Google’s online store to be on a waiting list to order Google Clips, which will retail for $250.
Full-frame cameras tend to be chunky beasts, but Sigma wants to prove that big imaging doesn't need a big body. Enter the Sigma FP2, the successor to its tiny, boxy fp mirrorless camera. It keeps the same modular design but packs in some serious upgrades, including a 24.5-megapixel partially stacked full-frame sensor, improved autofocus, 6K video recording, and 70GB of built-in storage. Sigma calls it the world's smallest full-frame camera, and while it might be tiny, the same cannot be said for its price tag.
Sigma FP2 brings faster shooting and 6K video
A phone thermal camera is one of those tools you don’t think you need until the first time it saves you from an expensive problem, and the Thermal Master P3 just got easier to try. For Halloween, it’s discounted with the code THERMCAM10, a 10% cut that works out to $107 off the total. It’s also fresh off a win at the 2026 Tom’s Guide AI Awards for best phone thermal camera, which is the kind of third-party nod that separates a serious tool from the cheap clip-on sensors that flood this category.
We are nearing Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days, which officially run October 6 and 7. But there is no need to wait until the sale begins to start looking. Early offers are already live, and camera gear is one category where I found enough worthwhile discounts to put together a proper creator-focused list.
I’ve deliberately gone wider than interchangeable-lens cameras here. There are pocket and action cameras, a 360 camera, an instant camera, two wireless microphone systems, and a pair of webcams covering very different budgets. Prices were checked on October 2, and as always with Amazon, they can move quickly.
