How Three Photographers Edited the Same RAW Files

There was a time when photography had to defend its place in the sun among traditional artistic disciplines. It was accused of being a soulless reproduction of reality with only a hint of the author’s creative imagination. Those days are thankfully over.

Nikon Z6 III Coming June 17th at 8AM Eastern

We just got an alert from B&H that the Nikon Z6 III will be announced on June 17th, and there’s already a placeholder page on B&H (can’t pre-order until the 17th, though). They also published a pretty good teaser video that you’ll want to check out if you’re interested in this camera.

Photography News: Canon’s Many Announcements and Sales

I’m really happy to testing lenses again, and our lens reviews will be back for you later this week. Today, I’ve been culling through my photos from the Nikon Z 28-400mm f/4-8 VR in preparation. It’s not the sharpest or brightest lens out there, but the zoom range is a blast. Even as a landscape photographer, I found myself focusing on scenes at 400mm that might normally escape attention, like the geyser you see below. Will I be replacing my Nikon Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3? That remains to be seen. But while you read this week’s Photography News, I hope you keep in mind that you don’t need to always follow the conventions in photography. Experiment a little – take portraits at 16mm, wildlife photos at 85mm, and landscapes at 400mm. You might like the different results that you get.

And in this day and age, there are four main card formats being used in new cameras: CFExpress A, CFExpress B, SD, and occasionally micro SD. The most common way to read these formats is through a card reader. Unfortunately for some photographers with too many cameras, that means a lot of card readers. In this post, I will review one solution: The Dockcase Studio Smart USB-C Hub 8-in-1.
