The Latest Nikon Rumours
credits: Nikon Nikon could be bringing back its canceled DL compact camera series, according to a new rumour floating around the internet. The rumour is based on a single source and has not yet been confirmed in any way, so it is worth taking with a healthy dose of skepticism. If accurate, though, it would mark the return of a camera lineup that Nikon originally announced back in 2016, only to cancel before it ever reached store shelves. According to the rumour, the new camer

Adobe’s New Lightroom Classic Update
credits: Adobe Adobe has rolled out its June update for Lightroom Classic, adding several practical features meant for photographers who regularly work with large photo libraries and high-volume shoots.
