It's a new year and we've hit the ground running. It feels so good to say that in 2024!
We have several new reviews, studio scenes, sample galleries and more in the pipeline, so keep your eyes peeled on the website. (But if you miss anything, don't worry; we'll remind you in future newsletters.)
The big story this week: the DPReview editors took a closer look at the Sony a9 III's image quality and we learned that global shutter does indeed take a hit on image quality. There is a lot more detail in the article, but in a nutshell: there are compromises, but it may not matter for the intended users Sony is courting. Take a look below for yourself.
Sony says the a9 III's sensor offers "global shutter without compromise." Our studio tests suggest this isn't quite the case. We've taken a closer look at the image quality and dynamic range impact of the move to a Stacked CMOS global shutter sensor.

"This year I want to buy less gear and start getting out with the gear I already own."
"... a new 12 months in which to enjoy our fascination with the wonderful World of photography. Forget the 'gear' and focus on the light and photograph what ever you see which interests you."
"It's been a helluva ride for us all and you've been a huge part of making sense out of it! Many thanx for sticking with it. I have no doubt you will be long remembered for shepherding us through the digital infancy."
