Welcome to the 801st DPReview Newsletter!

It seems like this year is flying by, but maybe that's just the unusual amount of news that's out there right now. As the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak continue to be felt in our little corner of the world, we're seeing events canceled all over the place, and shipping delays for some of this year's new releases.

We're hopeful that things will get back on track before too long, but in the meantime there's plenty of content going up, and more on the way. See links below.

Thanks for reading, and wash your hands!
