3 days ago | dpreview.com | Mitchell Clark

Our May editor's challenge is now open for submissions. The theme this month is human-powered travel, so we're looking for photos of people moving through the world under their own power, using means of transportation mundane or exotic.

Meme culture thrives on exaggerated content, and depth or restraint is often an afterthought. The viral "What I See vs. What I Take" trend is different. It's recently filled Instagram feeds with before-and-after images. The trend showcases the cluttered, everyday scenes a photographer encounters, followed by the tightly framed, intentional image they ultimately create.

Sony quietly updates FX3 cinema camera with a minor hardware tweak

1 week ago | dpreview.com | Kara Murphy

Sony has quietly introduced the FX3a, a revised version of its FX3 full-frame Cinema Line camera. Rather than offer up a next-generation upgrade, the FX3a replaces its predecessor with a small hardware change. The very minor upgrade aims to maintain compatibility with current manufacturing standards. The only apparent update is a new rear LCD screen, which increases resolution from 1.44 million dots to approximately 2.36 million. The new screen enhances display clarity for monitoring and menu use.

Microsoft unveiled new Surface devices yesterday, along with some improvements to its AI-powered creative apps. The Photos, Paint and Snipping tools were given new features that aim to make editing easier and more intuitive.

One of the more substantial additions is Relight in the Photos app. It lets users adjust lighting in photos by positioning up to three virtual light sources.

Early this morning, DJI released a teaser announcement on its social media channels. The video clip titled "Spin Your World" clocks in at less than 10 seconds.

1 week ago | dpreview.com | Kara Murphy

The month of May brings new opportunities to get your work seen by a large, international audience.
