Nikon has begun development of a new FX-series entry-level zoom lens, Nikkor Z 28-135 mm f/4 PZ for the Nikon Z bayonet. The optical design of the new zoom will be optimized for video, while the overall design of the controls emphasizes ease of use in the field for documentaries, travelogues, etc., for which its wide focal range is well suited... We don't know the release date yet. A similar lens in Nikon's current line-up is the versatile Nikkor Z 24-120mm f/4 S, also with optimizations for video recording.

Nikon introduced the second generation of the popular, affordable APS-C Z50. The new "Z10" brings an upgraded display with more freedom to pan/tilt, a new processor (the same as in the Z9, Z8 and Z6III) for more powerful AF and faster shooting, and higher frame rates for video (now up to 4K 30 fps without cropping or FHD 120 fps). Also new is a Product Review mode for vloggers allowing smooth refocusing on foreground subjects, Picture Control visual presets (and linking to Nikon Imaging Cloud), USB-C power option for studio work/power banks and an improved battery with higher capacity.

On offer now we have a range of new Metabones lens adapters including this year's model EF-MFT CINE Smart Adapter! The new generation brings a more powerful processor, support for Panasonic DMW-TC14 (1.4x) and DMW-TC20/TC20A (2x) teleconverters, compatibility with OM System/Olympus cameras and the ability to store EXIF metadata for up to three fully manual lenses directly into the adapter.

The EF-MFT Speed Booster and Smart Adapters have been indispensable equipment for photographers and filmmakers for more than a decade: in addition to AF and stabilization support (IBIS, IS, OS, VC), they offer compatibility with EOS film lenses, in-camera power and external and smooth aperture operation. Equally important is the long-term manufacturer support: released this summer, FW 4.10 for all Metabones MFT adapters brings PDAF support for the Panasonic GH7/G9M2 and improved AF support for all cameras.
