The Nikon Z50 looks like a pretty neat camera. Positioning itself as an entry-level mirrorless camera sitting somewhere between the capability of the D5x00 and D7x00 series DSLRs. Its design seems to have involved a couple of questionable decisions. The folks at Amateur Photographer got to speak to Rob Rob Harman, Senior Commercial Planning Manager at Nikon UK to find out more about those decisions. The answers to some of the questions are quite telling when it comes to Nikon’s approach, and some of the decisions are purely from a business standpoint....

Remember that full-blown Photoshop for iPad was announced last year? Well, it’s finally here!

Blackmagic does “camera updates” like this fairly regularly, but usually, they come with a pretty big announcement. Sometimes it’s a major firmware update that adds major new functionality and sometimes it’s a whole new camera. If it is a new camera, though, what could it be?
