    This week was a doozie, with Sony cutting its memory card business back in the wake of the flash memory shortage, OM System looks like they might bring back the PEN, and the DNG is now the officially recognized standard for RAW files.

    Plus, after a year of using an absolute ton of very affordable, third-party lenses, Chris and Jordan have some thoughts on what you should look out for if you're tempted by their low, low prices.
