25 Years of DPReview in Partnership with MPB

September 1st, 2024

We spent the week ahead of the holiday weekend here in the U.S. wrapping up testing on the Fujifilm X-T50 as well as shooting Sony’s new FE 85mm F1.4 GM II and the Google Pixel 9 Pro at night.

In between, we covered the official announcement of Apple’s September iPhone event, plus a fun reveal about Nikon’s new HQ.
