In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at Markus Lindstrom, Julieanne Kost in Antarctica, more on the Fujifilm GFX 50S experience and the Sigma 10-20mm zoom.
- In A Unique Perspective of Our World: Inge' Mer, Markus Lindstrom, who was born in 2003, moves up from a smartphone to a Leica to continue to "take pictures of things I like." It's a short but refreshing interview.
- In Chasing the Ice: Julieanne Kost's Adventures in Antarctica, Jordan Kushins goes behind the scenes of Kost's recent trip. "There is a huge amount of power in post-processing," she tells him. "It's the second half of the equation. After you capture the moment, gesture and light, the question becomes, how do you craft that Raw data to tell your story?"
- Jim Kasson describes the ergonomics of the Fujifilm GFX 50S Shooting Experience as "pretty close to a home run" in his 44th post on the camera.
- In Going Wide With the Sigma 10-20mm Zoom, Derrick story praises the $449 optic as a bargain that's fast enough with its constant f3.5 aperture to shoot indoors.
More to come! Meanwhile, please support our efforts...
