Sigma has just announced the 200mm f/2 DG OS Sports lens, an ultra-fast telephoto lens available for Sony E and Leica L cameras. This lens promises to be a bokeh king, thanks to the huge entrance pupil that allows for a paper-thin depth of field. And perhaps the most interesting part is the price of just $ 3300.

A long time ago, I first heard about custom hardware editing devices: boxes with customizable buttons and sliders that can be used to edit photos. I never bothered looking into them because I always thought a mouse and keyboard are enough for photo editing. But recently, I tried one, the TourBox Elite Plus. Is it just a cool-looking box or does it actually improve the photo editing experience? In today’s review, I will answer that question and take you through the features of the TourBox Elite Plus.

My plan for later this month had been to test two different Leica cameras at a climbing event. However, there is an old and wise climber’s saying: “Never attach two Leicas to one harness!” So, I decided instead to test one of the cameras at a less adventurous – though no less interesting – event. Here, the worst that could happen was that I could fall into deep mud at the edge of a pond with the Leica Q3. I was willing to take that risk, so now I can present the first photo from a series I’m planning. You will soon hear my first impressions of this camera, but for now, let’s move to the news from the past week.

In my article earlier this week about the Svalbard Archipelago, I introduced you to this remarkable region of the world and what it’s like as a photographer. Today, I will share a day-by-day travel diary from my trip this July, along with some of the photos I captured there.

This article is a little different from what I normally write on Photography Life. It isn’t a gear review or a tutorial. Maybe it’s more like a confession. The truth is that I have felt aimless as a photographer for much of the past year.
