The Fumes of Mars
Katerina Angelopoulou's The Fumes of Mars is a searing act of personal and collective remembrance, forged in the aftermath of one of Greece's deadliest wildfires. On 23 July 2018, a blaze fuelled by 40°C heat and winds of over 100 km/h tore through towns just 30km from Athens. Over 100 people died. Angelopoulou, visiting a friend's home with her mother and three-year-old daughter, fled by car before being forced to abandon it and take refuge in the sea for hours until rescue. The fire reached the shoreline in little more than 90 minutes, swallowing everything in its path.

PANASONIC has announced the longest telephoto zoom yet for its L-mount full-frame mirrorless system, in the shape of the Lumix S 100-500mm F5-7.1 OIS. It's impressively small and lightweight given its range, being similar in size to conventional 100-400mm zooms. Panasonic is also promising 'industry leading' optical image stabilisation, with up to 7 stops of shake reduction when shooting handheld.

50 Plus...
David Collyer’s 50 Plus is a witty, stylish, and fiercely human portrait of a generation that simply refused to fade away. With his lens trained on men over 50 who remain steadfastly committed to the subcultural identities of their youth, Collyer builds a visual and narrative tribute to ageing with attitude and without apology.
