IN PARTNERSHIP WITH

Thursday, March 7, 2024

Another fantastic week at DPReview ends with another camera launch. Leica's SL3 is here, and we have your initial review!

Also, don't miss our trip down memory lane to learn more about the origins of the CMOS sensors that power many of our modern imaging devices.  

Finally, we're celebrating the coming of Spring with a second installment of last year's bracket-style debate tournament. You can suggest your debate topics at the bottom of this newsletter to be a part of the fun.

And with that, let's get into it!

Last week, we asked you about your hottest photo debate topics and here are three that stood out. You'll have your chance to have your say on these and more questions starting next week as part of March's Camera Debate Madness.
