Cheap AF glass hits L-mount, and photo agencies take a stand on access
Budget L-mount glass leads a gear-and-awards day
From the Editor
Viltrox has added four new budget primes for L-mount shooters, all under $200 and addressing what's been a thin lineup of affordable autofocus glass for the system. Major photo agencies and newspapers are withholding images from White House events in solidarity with TV networks barred from coverage, while Canon Rumors flags Q1 2027 for the EOS R7 Mark II. Bird Photographer of the Year and World Press Photo also announced this year's winners.
