In this recurring column, we highlight a few items we've run across that don't merit a full story of their own but are interesting enough to bring to your attention (with more than 140 characters). This time we look at wildfires in the West, two cine lenses, two Batis lenses and a Rocky Nook discount.
- In Western Wildfires Have Burned More Than 7 Million Acres This Year, Alan Taylor presents 38 stunning images of the "nearly 100 wildfires in 10 western states."
- Roger Cicala compares the Zeiss 85mm CP.2 T2.1 and Rokinon Xeen 85mm T1.5 with a teardown.
- Kevin Raber reviews the Zeiss Batis 85mm and Batis 25mm lenses for the Sony E mount. Raber includes an unusual number of comparison images, a first at Luminous Landscape. "The results are like splitting hairs. We found that while the Batis lenses are really good, they run a tight competition with the Sony lenses," he writes.
- Rocky Nook's Back-to-School Sale saves you 40 percent on eBooks when you use the code SCHOOLTIME.
