Leica has announced Monopan 50, a new high-resolution black-and-white film with enhanced spectral sensitivity. It is the first true Leica 35mm film the company has released.
I'm not a huge fan of ultra-light travel tripods. As compact as they are, they often lack the stability required for anything beyond casual use. There is a balancing act involved in finding the right amount of stability while still keeping the tripod convenient enough to enjoy. I did not like the Peak Design Travel Tripod due to its fiddly head design and slightly wobbly legs, but they may have reached the Goldilocks zone with the latest Peak Design Pro Lite. This one feels just right. At $800, though, you have a fairly high price of admission.
Peak Design announced three new Pro tripods that it developed in tandem with adventure photographer and filmmaker Jimmy Chin that promise professional-grade portability, strength and "thoughtfully designed functionality."
Lighting brand Harlowe has developed a limited edition Signature Kit of its lighting products in partnership with portrait photographer Mark Mann. The Mark Mann Signature Kit will be limited to just 30 worldwide, each with its own number.

Flagship cameras always get the biggest fanfare but it’s often the model that sits right below that gets the most play. These are the cameras made for the enthusiast photographer who does not need the biggest and fastest camera but does want some high-end features at a decent price. Where the OM System OM-1 Mark II is the pinnacle of OM technology, the new $1,200 OM-5 Mark II will probably be the workhorse of the lineup.
OM System has announced the OM-5 Mark II, which it describes as a "refined" mirrorless interchangeable lens Micro Four Thirds camera built for outdoor enthusiasts.
Sigma has announced the 17-40mm f/1.8 DC Art lens, what it calls the successor to the 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM Art lens that was designed for DSLRs and became incredibly popular for run-and-gun videographers when it launched in 2013.
A significant part of the appeal of Fujiflim's X and GFX Series cameras is Fujifilm's phenomenal Film Simulations. While many photographers enjoy these carefully created simulations straight out of the box, experimental shooters can also build their own in-camera and save them as custom recipes. Photographer Oliver Mandic has built a free web tool to help Fujifilm owners craft new image recipes based on the look they want and the subject they like capturing.
Austrian photographer Markus Hofstaetter purchased a century-old Eastman View Camera No. 2-D, also known as the Kodak 2D, more than six months ago and has since spent the time since restoring the camera to its former glory. After all the time and effort, the 104-year-old camera is reborn.

In May, Yashica announced two versions of an upcoming digital camera called the FX-D, a digital camera that sports many analog-inspired features (including a film advance lever). Both of those original options feature a pentaprism-like bump above the lens, but it was just for looks: there was no viewfinder.
This week, Fujifilm announced the X-E5 -- a popular line that has typically been one of the company's more affordable interchangeable lens cameras. However, with the inclusion of higher-end design elements and an elevated price to match, that changed.

The Fujifilm X100 series of cameras is the most popular design out of the entire brand and possibly out of anyone else's brand, too. These cameras hit an ideal balance between styling and compactness, but they never really appealed to me as much as they seem to for everyone else. I know that I am in the vast minority with this very unpopular opinion but I think that a better Fujifilm camera exists and we all get to appreciate it together now because the X-E5 has finally arrived.
Fujifilm has announced the X-E5, a rangefinder-style interchangeable lens compact camera that takes several design notes from the popular X100 series but adds a few of its own, including a customizable Film Simulation dial.

The 50mm f/1.1 lens resembles one of Leica's primes, albeit at a significantly lower price. Most brazenly, the company's website is none other than www.leicalens.com, a move sure to raise Leica's hackles.
Profoto has announced a pair of new battery-powered compact moonlights, the B20 and B30. These build upon the B10-series, with the B20 offering the same 250 Ws power, and the B30 doubling that to 500 Ws. The new flashes promise more speed, improved overall power, and flexibility.

Apple announced what it is calling the "biggest iPadOS release ever," promising to enhance the versatility and usability of the platform, bringing it closer to what is expected of macOS, while still stopping short of fully transitioning to the desktop OS.
To usher in the next generation of its 360-degree action camera, Insta360 didn’t go back to the drawing board. Instead, it turned to the community, taking stock in what its customers liked, but also didn’t like about the brand’s X4 action camera.
