What's in the issue

Welcome to another diverse issue: we kick off with a look at Elton John’s incredible photography collection – who knew the music legend had such an archive. Then we pay tribute to the winners of the World Press Photo Contest 2024, a sobering reminder of the bravery (and necessity) of photojournalists, before we delve into the fascinating world of mindful photography. For hardware fans, we test Sony’s FE 16-25mm G lens, and antique-camera authority John Wade takes a deep dive into classic 1970s cameras.
