The most hotly discussed photo topic in the past month, undoubtedly, has to be the reported sale of a photo by Australian photographer Peter Lik for a record-breaking price of $6.5 million. I say “reported” sale because, as of yet, no unbiased source has been able to officially confirm this news, which was announced by Lik’s parent company in a press release in early December.

A Brooklyn fashion photographer is fighting a recent arrest where he says a police officer mistook a harmless two-finger ring for a pair of dangerous brass knuckles.

Nikon says it’s investigating a problem reported by users of its D750 DSLR where a dark shadowy band will appear in images with lens flare.

Here we go again. That’s what Nikon owners might be saying to themselves now that another possible problem with a new DSLR from the company has surfaced. Several owners of the new Nikon D750 have reported that a dark shadowy band will appear in images with lens flare. The effect slices off the top of the flare, creating a distracting split between light and shadow across the top of the frame.
