From the Editor
Fstoppers takes Sony's FE 400mm f/2.8 GM OSS II trackside for a field test, and the lens weighs in under 1kg. Imaging World moves to Koelnmesse in Cologne from 2027 as 'Imaging World inspired by photokina', with the first edition set for 24 to 26 September 2027. Skylum is shutting down Aperty, its portrait editing app, despite a five-year update commitment at launch.
