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. This time we look at backups, mirrorless, one roll of film, photo printers and lens tutorials.
- Just as Lloyd Chambers experienced Major Data Loss he still can't explain, Kirk Tuck embarks on a Kind of Craziness with 10-TB backup drives for his 2020 jobs.
- In Mirrorless, Without an EVF, Thom Hogan proposes "a different way to think about the Canon and Nikon announcements last week (1DX m3 and D780): they're mirrorless cameras without an EVF."
- In One Day, One Roll of Film, Christmas 2019, Derrick Story gives himself an unusual Christmas assignment with an old point-and-shoot 35mm film camera.
- Daven Mathies lists The Best Photo Printers for 2020, From Instant to Inkjet. Not a dye sub to be found, though.
- Mike Johnston has a couple of required reading lens tutorials up. Tutorial: Shoot at Middle Apertures is followed by Big Bokeh on a Budget.
