If you've been following along at home, you know DPReview underwent some changes recently.  Since then, we've been ramping up news, reviews, testing and setting up our new studio over the past several months. Through it all, we knew we also wanted to give our newsletter some love and attention.  What you're reading now is the labor of love of dozens of people behind the scenes who worked long nights and weekends to help get us up and running again. So, whether you're just coming back to DPReview or have been with us all along, we're excited to bring you, once again, a weekly round-up of everything interesting, novel and curious happening in the world of cameras.
