Spring isn’t just bringing new gear cycles, it’s also delivering some of the most aggressive memory card discounts we’ve seen in a long time. Across Lexar’s CFexpress, SD, and microSD lineup, prices have dropped sharply, often paired with additional in-cart coupons that push savings even further. In some cases, these feel less like routine promotions and more like a temporary reset in the memory card market.

The new version focuses on improved materials and handling, while maintaining the core philosophy of preserving the original optical design.
I'm Back's Kickstarter for the Roll APS-C has become incredibly popular. The idea of slipping a digital sensor into existing film cameras is proving to have legs, and as the crowdfunding campaign closes in on $1M raised, the company has proposed a new solution to one of the system's glaring issues.
Last year, the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) had a very odd and very public crisis of leadership as the board of directors was caught in a wave of controversy. Now, just over a year later, the PPA has a new CEO.

Kase, arguably best known for its filters, also makes lenses. While some of these are normal, like the AF 85mm f/1.4 portrait prime, others are a bit unusual, like the manual focus 200mm f/5.6 reflex (mirror) lens. Kase's newest lens is yet another reflex prime, but this time it comes equipped with autofocus.

Just as Tolkien did in "The Lord of the Rings," photographers encompass cultural, historical, and personal viewpoints in their work. However, as in that book, a complex interaction exists between the photographer's intent and the viewer's interpretation of the image.
Early morning. Black t-shirt, dark blazer. I’m dragging heavy bags down from my apartment just outside Stockholm, heading to a taxi waiting outside. In twenty minutes, I’ll be at Stockholm Waterfront, where three intense days of shooting are about to begin. And I love it.
Now, my not-so-piping-hot take is more nuanced, but I still stand by that statement in the title. Because while stunning skies are what drew me to landscape photography, they’ve also held back my development and growth.
As much as I think that landscape photography is a lone pursuit, it often conflicts with the need for feedback about our work. Learning to take photos is one thing but learning to interact with others, to find connections and build a creative network is often overlooked, but just as vital.
Is it foolish to buy a camera with 40-plus megapixels? Photographers are still pushing for higher megapixel count, but that may be too many.
The 1994 genocide in Rwanda was one of the most intimate and large-scale acts of violence of the 20th century. In just 100 days, between 800,000 and one million people were killed, mainly Tutsis but also Hutus. Perpetrators were neighbors, teachers, church leaders, even family members, who attacked face-to-face with machetes, clubs, and spears.
Upstart British photography company Alfie Cameras is launching its next camera, the Alfie Boxx, in just a few weeks. The upcoming camera is an all-in-one analog camera experience, enabling photographers to capture and develop photos right in the camera itself.
Photography has always had a weakness for metrics, but dynamic range has taken on a peculiar authority in the digital era. It is treated not just as a specification, but as a verdict. Cameras are ranked, dismissed, or praised based on differences of less than a stop, as if such a number alone could determine the quality of an image.
For more than a decade, commercial photographer and retoucher John Barnard has worked across high-end campaigns for brands including Nike, Apple, Restoration Hardware, and Pottery Barn. But after 15 years in the industry, what ultimately pushed him to build his own software wasn’t a creative breakthrough or a business pivot. It was a broken tethering connection on set.
Spring often brings a shift in how photographers move. There's more travel, more location work, and a renewed focus on portability. With that comes the need for camera bags that match different shooting styles, whether that’s lightweight everyday carry or fully protected transport for larger, pricier kits.
Every so often, Hasselblad takes to its YouTube channel to showcase a legendary product from its distant past.

A new documentary follows photographers and scientists deep into Florida’s most remote swamps in search of answers to one of botany’s most enduring questions: what pollinates the elusive ghost orchid.

The Nikon Z system needed a new kit lens. The 24-120mm f/4 is one of the best lenses I’ve ever used, but it isn't exactly affordable and is understandably beyond the budget of many beginner photographers. The 24-50mm is a decent optic, but it has a slow aperture range and a limited focal range for general-purpose photography. Even the Nikon 24-200mm and Tamron 25-200mm is a bit too expensive for a beginner.
Two young photographers in the U.K. have been allowed to capture the final of a soccer competition after initially being barred because of their age.
