Sony has just announced the second generation of its wide-aperture 85mm prime lens, the Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 GM II. It took eight years of development from the first generation, which was released in 2016. Where have those eight years shown up when looking at the specs of the lens?

A couple of months ago, I asked whether photography can be considered a numbers game. My answer was yes – but not in the volume of photos you take. Instead, it’s how many times you go out and take photos in the first place. I experienced a great reminder of this recently.

For the opening photo of this Photography News, I have borrowed the Bolivian Red-fronted Macaw (Ara rubrogenys) from its author Tomas Grim. This magnificent, critically endangered parrot does not nest in tree cavities like its relatives, but on high cliffs. Even there, it is not safe from nearby farmers and exotic bird traders. Think of this photo as a teaser for an upcoming photo book that you will soon be able to see and read. For more news from the 34th week of 2024, you can read below.
