Photography Learning Opportunity!
B&H Photo Video is offering a FREE online learning conference called OPTIC 2022 from June 12-15.
B&H is a great resource for learning - they have a blog, a library of resources, and a YouTube channel. This conference is just one more great offering from a great company I highly recommend them for buying new gear and I recommend KEH in Atlanta* for used gear.
Use this link to register and select "online" as your participation type. You will then get an email with your tickets and emails reminding you of the event as it gets closer.
*I am an affiliate of KEH, if you use this link to purchase anything I get a small commission at no cost to you.

For an update on Industry News including new cameras, lenses, and other information from camera manufacturers visit our News Page.
The current edition covers lots of updates on new cameras, lenses and more.
Keeping up with all of the news blurbs and rumors is time consuming; therefore this will be the last camera news link. This applies only to camera news. I will still be sending out this type of newsletter that you are currently reading.
In the future, all rumors and news will be shared on my Twitter feed as retweets as I come across them. This will be a time saver for me and will get news and sales info to you in a more timely manner as well. If you don't follow me on Twitter, click the Twitter icon at the bottom of this newsletter and follow.
