A few days ago, I removed the last of the Sri Lankan leeches that were enjoying the exotic delicacy of my Czech blood. The water that had condensed inside my lens has finally found its way out. Now, there is nothing left to do but to start sorting the photos...

Photography News: Nikon Pre-Release RAW Rumor, Holiday Sales
This week, I was excited to get back some of the 8×10 film that I shot in Death Valley last month. One of my favorite parts of landscape photography is seeing my photos come to life on a light table for the first time. (Then again, one of my least favorite parts is if they didn’t turn out…)
Photography News: Nikon Superzoom Rumor, Cyber Monday
I've made it back from my trip to Death Valley, where I recently traveled to see (and of course photograph) a temporary lake that formed in Badwater Basin. I'll get back my developed 8x10 film in a few days, but in the meantime, I've been going through all the digital...

Photography News: Lots of Early Black Friday Sales
The best way to test any new photography equipment is to take it on a trip. And that's what I'm doing now - I'm visiting the tropics again, this time the Asian ones. My batteries are charged, lenses are cleaned, cards are empty, and laundry is done (for now). I...

For my opening Photography News images, I usually post a photo I took last week. This time I will make a small exception to that rule. The month and day match, only the year is 2005 - prehistoric from the point of view of digital photography. But many of you...
Sony a9 III Announced with a Groundbreaking Global Shutter
In my roughly eight years of pursuing photography seriously, one of the most exciting things I have seen is yesterday’s announcement of the Sony a9 III, the first consumer interchangeable lens camera with global shutter.
Sony FE 300mm f/2.8 GM OSS Lens Announced
Sony is surely making waves today, perhaps the biggest one being with their new Sony a9 III camera with a global shutter. But great cameras need great lenses, and what better way to make the Sony a9 III shine than with a shiny new Sony FE 300mm f/2.8 GM OSS...
Photography News: Canon Lenses, Upcoming Sony Announcements
Recently, I was thinking about what I consider to be the greatest evolution in photographic technology in recent years, and I can't decide. Automatic eye detection across the entire viewfinder ranks very high. A blackout-free viewfinder is highly appreciated, as well. And I also see a huge leap forward in...
Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L Announced: The Holy Grail Midrange Zoom
One of my favorite long-running gags in the photography world is that, whenever someone wishes for an unrealistic lens, another photographer will chime in sarcastically asking for a lightweight 14-200mm f/2.8 with perfect optics, or something just as impossible. Apparently Canon took that as a challenge. The newly released RF...
