Chinese camera lens manufacturer 7Artisans has announced the affordable $236 APS-C 50mm f/0.95 lens for Sony E, Nikon Z, Fujifilm X, EOS-M, and Micro Four Thirds (MFT) mounts.

Lee Filters has announced a new LEE100 holder designed specifically for the Nikon NIKKOR Z 14-24mm f/2.8 S ultra-wide zoom lens.

Pergear has announced a new 2x magnification lens, the 60mm f/2.8 Ultra-Macro for a range of APS-C mounts -- Fujifilm X-mount, Sony E-mount, and Nikon Z-mount -- and Micro Four Thirds.

Nikon has announced that while it intends to begin shipping Nikon Z fc cameras on schedule starting July 23, it does not have the supply to meet all demand. Additionally, overwhelming numbers of orders for the 28mm f/2.8 special edition kit have forced the company to delay it indefinitely.

After two development announcements from Canon for the R3 and one from Nikon for the Z9 early in 2021, many expected to see both cameras make a splash at the Olympics in Japan this summer. If two recent reports are correct, however, neither camera will be officially announced until this fall.

Nikon Japan has issued a notice stating that demand for the newly announced Z fc camera currently outpace the company's production capability. Those who have pre-ordered the camera are likely going to have to wait "some time" before they receive it.

Acclaimed food photographer Joanie Simon, known as The Bite Shot on YouTube, has published a video that details why food photographers will love Nikon's new 105mm f/2.8 Macro Lens.

In a recent interview with Phileweb, Nikon's Fumiyuki Wakao -- the company's General Manager of Planning and Marketing -- said that the team developing the upcoming Z9 professional camera was dealing with "great expectations and responsibilities" and that they were "struggling to reach the goal."

Chinese camera lens manufacturer 7artisans has expanded its lineup of Nikon Z Mount lenses to include a 10mm f/2.8 Fisheye ($270), 55mm f/1.4 II ($130), and the 60mm f/2.8 II Macro ($180).

Venus Optics has officially launched its latest lens: the Laowa Argus 33mm f/0.95 CF APO prime lens for Sony, Fujifilm, Canon, and Nikon mirrorless APS-C cameras.

Nikon has financially struggled over the past year due to a host of factors, but according to the company's CFO Muneaki Tokunari, it expects to be fully in the black by the next fiscal year. Additionally, it will push to release 12 lenses in the next 12 months.

Earlier this week, Nikon rewarded their fans with the reveal that a flagship mirrorless camera that will surpass the D6 was coming to market this year. The Z9, as it is called, looks like it's going to be a killer camera -- but buying one is likely going to be a challenge.

Fotodiox has announced a nifty new "spin" on taking high-resolution, square-shaped, medium-format-style photos using one of many different interchangeable lens mirrorless cameras. The Rhinocam Vertex lets you easily capture four images in a precise way so that stitching them in post is a breeze.

Laowa has made a considerable splash at CP+, unveiling five new lenses: a 25mm f/0.95 lens for Micro four Thirds, a 33mm f/0.95 APO lens for APS-C, and the full-frame 35mm f/0.95, 45mm f/0.95, and 12-24mm f/5.6 lenses.

The NiSi 15mm f/4 lens was announced in early January and photographer Ted Forbes got his hands on one to see how the company's first lens performed. In short, it's a promising start for the company that is new to lens design, but it has a few niggling issues to keep in mind even at its low price.

Venus Optics is continuing to add support for more mounts and today the 11mm f/4.5 FF RL (full-frame rectilinear) lens is available for Canon RF mount and the Laowa 65mm f/2.8 2x Ultra-Macro APO is available for Nikon Z mount.

Lomography has launched its Kickstarter for the Atoll Ultra-Wide 17mm f/2.8 Art Lens for Nikon Z, Canon RF, Sony E, and Leica M-mount. The fully manual lens makes many lofty promises for its $550 asking price.

ZY Optics has announced the Mitakon Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 lens for Leica M-mount cameras, a manual focus lens that not only supports Leica Rangefinder Coupling for focus assistance but also promises to work with third-party autofocus adapters made for Nikon Z or Sony FE cameras.

NiSi, a Chinese manufacturer known mostly for making high-quality filters, has announced its first still-camera lens: the 15mm f/4. It features a 112-degree field of view and the promise of edge-to-edge sharpness for multiple mirrorless mounts.

While not necessarily indicative of how well a brand is doing in terms of sales, the annual LensRentals Top Rented Photo and Video Products report is at least telling of what's popular or what has the public eye. This year, it was Canon yet again.

Nikon recently published an updated lens roadmap that shows a total of eleven silhouetted, to-be-released lenses, but this latest version includes three that the company had not previously mentioned: a 50mm, and two giant super-telephoto primes.

Meike is on a budget lens tear. After releasing a fully manual 50mm f/1.2 for under $400, and an autofocus 85mm f/1.8 for less than $200, they just today unveiled an even cheaper lens. The new Meike 25mm f/1.8 APS-C lens for the Nikon Z-Mount is just $75.

Photographer Matt Irwin recently took to his YouTube channel to share a theory—or maybe it's just a glimmer of hope—about Nikon's plans for the mirrorless Z mount. That theory is that Nikon wants to turn the Z-Mount into an all-encompassing system that includes APS-C, full-frame, and medium format cameras.

First, a little backstory. For much of my young career, I shot Canon. Be it the 1D, 1D2, 1DS, 1D3, 1DS2 and 1DS3, let’s just say I had a thing for the ergonomics of that chassis. In every camera I would replace the focusing screen with the cross-style manual focusing option and would never use AF. To make things even more difficult, I only shot primes.

In addition to unveiling the flagship Nikon D6 DSLR, Nikon also released two new Z-mount lenses for its mirrorless system tonight: the NIKKOR Z 20mm f/1.8 S and the NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR.

Sigma has played a big part in making high-quality glass more accessible with its exceptional ART series lenses, and it sounds like it has no intention to stop. In a recent "Ask the CEO" video from Sigma UK, Mr. Kazuto Yamaki revealed several interesting tidbits about the company's plans moving forward.

Nikon Japan has published a notice indicating that the long-awaited NIKKOR Z 70-200mm f/2.8 VR S lens will have to be awaited a tiny bit longer. The lens, along with its three main accessories, have been delayed and will not be shipping on February 14th as previously announced.

Techart has pulled off something pretty cool with its latest lens adapter. The so-called "Canon EF to Nikon Z Autofocus Adapter" (TZC-01) lets you use Canon EF glass on Nikon's mirrorless Z-Series cameras without sacrificing autofocus, auto exposure, aperture control, or lens stabilization.

In addition to announcing the APS-C mirrorless Nikon Z50 and officially releasing the monstrous (and monstrously expensive) NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct lens, Nikon has also updated its Z-Mount lens roadmap, adding nine new lenses to the docket and promising 13 new lenses total by the end of 2021.
