Hello, I’ve spent the past week recovering from a less-than-ideal bout of COVID-19, so I hope your week has gone a bit better than mine. Despite being down and out, the team back at DPR HQ was plenty busy, putting out great content, as always. Headlining that content is a new studio scene with Fujifilm’s X-H2S, a sample gallery with Sigma’s new 24mm F1.4 prime lens and a DPReview TV review of Laowa’s crazy-small Nanomorph anamorphic lenses. Check out all of these articles and more in the roundup below.
