There are lots of great Black Friday deals still left for photographers that have carried over past Cyber Monday. From sales on Nikon F-mount lenses to a good deal on Topaz software, here are some of the ones that stand out to me the most.

Nikon Z 40mm f/2 Review
For years, one of the biggest reasons to choose a mirrorless camera over a DSLR was to save weight. Not all of today's mirrorless cameras follow that pattern - just look at the Canon EOS R3 and Nikon Z9 - but saving weight is still a high priority for many...
Behind the Photo: The Rapids of the Yellowstone River
A couple of months ago, I took an abstract/intimate landscape photo that I was happy with, and some people have asked me how it was made. It’s a somewhat tricky image to parse, so today I thought I could go behind the scenes and show how I took it.
Nikon Z9 Review (Firmware Version 3.0)
We’ve done a major update to our Nikon Z9 review – the entire review has been revamped and is now current for Firmware Version 3.0. New sample photos and other updates have been added along the way, too. Check it out!
Working with the Landscape in Front of You
I just returned from a long trip to Yosemite, partly to test some lenses for upcoming reviews, and partly to unwind. Although I had a great time out there, the conditions for “classic” landscape photography left something to be desired: very few clouds or fall colors anywhere.

Sony A7R V Announced: Faster Processor, Better Autofocus

Although 61-megapixel BSI sensor is the same as the previous generation, there are lots of other improvements behind the scenes. Let’s take a look!
Nikon Z 24-120mm f/4 S Review
The Nikon Z 24-120mm f/4 S has been one of the most highly anticipated Nikon mirrorless lenses yet – but it almost didn’t exist. In early versions of the Nikon Z roadmap, a 24-105mm was shown instead. Thankfully, Nikon scrapped that plan and eventually went with the 24-120mm design we have today.
Our Lens Testing Survey Results
Last week, I posted a survey asking what lens reviews you most wanted to see at Photography Life. The survey received many more responses than I expected: 657 before I closed it! I’ve tallied up the responses and now have a clear idea what lenses we’re going to review next.
Photography News: Nikon 35mm f/1.2 Rumor, SanDisk Sale
It’s fall color season right now in Colorado! Just going outside is enough to make me feel refreshed and relaxed. It’s a slower time of year for photography news, but a few interesting things still happened this week. When I’ve had time away from the aspens, here’s what I’ve found for you.
