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. This time we look at Baltimore, Alfredo Cunha, the Carl Zeiss 35mm f2.0 lens, the iPhone 15 Pro Max and the iPhone 15 Pro.
- Photojournalist and Baltimore native JM Giordano has been documenting the city's gun violence and the activists who organized to combat it. Defying a Decade of Gun Violence in Baltimore presents a few of the images from his new book 13-23.
- The Leica Gallery in Porto is presenting an exhibition with five decades of works by Alfredo Cunha. "An essential key to understanding Cunha's photography is his direct approach to people: he was influenced by European humanist photographic models early on and by American photojournalistic realists a few years later."
- Kirk Tuck put a Carl Zeiss 35mm f2.0 ZM Lens on his M240 and came home with a slide show. "I bumped the saturation in Lightroom Classic to about +12. Also boosted overall contrast by about +10" he confesses.
- In A Photographer's POV on the iPhone 15 Pro Max, Derrick Story says he's going for that 5x zoom. But he likes USB 3 and the Action button that both Pro models offer.
- Terry White explains Why USB-C on iPhone 15 Pro Is a Big Deal. He can't wait to plug an SD reader into the port, for one. He also explains why he opted for the Pro over the Pro Max.
