Tethering software broke one too many sets, card prices rise May 11
From the Editor
Today's through-line is photographers vs. the tools they're supposed to trust. Tethering software that drops on live sets. Card prices creeping up with a date attached. A solid opinion piece calling out spec worship for what it is. Nothing revolutionary shipped today, but there's plenty worth acting on.
