This week Nikon announced two Z-mount macro lenses, in 105mm and 50mm focal lengths. We take a look at the specs, pricing, and whether we’ll consider replacing our F-mount 105mm VR micro-Nikkor lenses. We also take a quick peek at DXO’s newly updated Nik Collection 4, which we’ll review more in depth next week.
This week, we have the first of a multi-part series on color management. For our first topic, we’ll discuss what color management is, and why you should calibrate your monitor if you’re serious about digital photography.
Accessories we like

We’re back from our week-long photo safari in Oregon, and we had a spectacular time. We’ve posted photos on our Facebook Page for you to check out, too. Rick brought his Fujifilm GFS 100X medium-format camera on the tour, and he shares his experience using it in the field.

This week, Nikon released firmware updates for every Z mirrorless camera in their lineup. While most of the improvements went to the Z6ii and Z7ii models, the other cameras also got a really great feature, too.
We also take a look at the latest iteration of Topaz Labs’ sharpening tool, Sharpen AI. Sharpen AI works as a Lr/Ps plug-in, and as a stand-alone editor. We were both impressed by this sharpening tool, and we discuss how we plan to use it in our workflow.
